Billy Joel was honored by Madsison Square Garden on Wednesday, April 19, for breaking the record for consecutive sell-out shows. Joel, a New York native, broke the previous record of 10 set by Bruce Springsteen, and New York State senator Charles Schumer declared the day Billy Joel Day.

Joel said that he is as surprised as anyone that he was able to play 12 sold out shows at Madison Square Garden.

  • I've been saying that Billy is our modern day George Gershwin. Joel's songs will live on as did Gershwin's. But Billy can sing his ass off too. There's the dif. Bravo Billy on such a fabulous career. And thanks for coming to Wrigley with E.J.

  • Saw Billy in Melbourne, Australia last night..he played for 2 hours straight..what a performer..love him :))

  • Bruce Springsteen is certainly a famous songwriter and still a superstar in Pop music, compared with Billy he's a dwarf. Billy is a giant!

  • Don't they mean Madison Square Garden was honored by Billy Joel?

  • When I was twelve, Piano Man appeared, Billy with the big old eyes and huge head of hair! Then over the thirty five years since then, this man, the ONLY one whos lyrics you could ALWAYS make out, has put out so many greatly talented songs that my 17 yr. old and I both love him equally. Billy's the Heart of N.Y.!!

  • Billy is amazing in concert. I saw him and Elton at Gilette Stadium last year!

  • so april 19th is Billy Joel day ?

  • @JammLP "Scenes From An Italian Restaurant."
