Billy Joel Concert @ Bell Center , Montreal, Quebec, Canada on 23th April 2008. Elton John and Billy Joel are performing their 'Face 2 Face' concert in Montreal on 3rd June, 2009.
The sad part with most piano performances is that the audience on the side/back of the artist have a bad view throught the performance. But Billy Joel had an answer to that, with a piano that would revolve 180 degrees while he was playing the songs. Good view for everyone.

Billy Joel with the excited concert crowd. Taken at the Billy Joel Concert @ Bell Center , Montreal, Quebec, Canada on 23th April 2008. Elton John and Billy Joel are returning back to Montreal to perform their 'Face 2 Face' concert on 3rd June, 2009.
Although Billy Joel retired in 1993, after recording songs for 2 decades, he continues to charm sold out stadium crowds with his live concert performances. As per the RIAA, he's the sixth best selling artist in US (and with 150 Million+ albums worldwide), after The Beatles, Garth Brooks, Elvis Presley, Led Zeppelin and The Eagles.
Some memorable parts of the concert included Billy's revolving Piano, 'boxing' with the microphone and a throw-and-catch routine again with the microphone. Of course, I don't need to mention the parts where the crowd was louder than the sound system of the Bell Center, singing classics like Piano Man, Uptown Girl and 'We Didn't Start the Fire'
Billy also thanked the fans in the upper section, "Thanks for buying the cheap seats because all of our kids have to go to college".
