Just as our blog community predicted . . . Kansas City celebrates old-school fame coming to town. To be fair, the piano man does have a few good drinking songs:
Billy Joel coming to Kauffman Stadium in September
Billy Joel will be coming to Kansas City for a concert at Kauffman Stadium. The concert will take place Friday, Sept. 21 at 8 p.m. This performance will be Joel's first ever stadium appearance in Kansas City and the first concert at Kauffman Stadium in 39 years.
Oh, that K. I thought it would have been knuckleheads at this point in his career
ReplyDeleteAnyone know what a "real estate novelist" is?
ReplyDeleteBullshit. They used to have concerts after the games like twenty years ago. I remember Huey Lewis and the News for free.
ReplyDelete1:44---The last concert there was 39 years ago. You've lost a decade somewhere.
ReplyDeleteReal estate novelist is a fiction writer from city hall.

ReplyDeleteWho wants to see this geriatric has been.
This one is for the pants-shitters. Except and this is key...they don't go out after dark, so this should be pretty ill-attended.
ReplyDeleteI saw him at the forum in Los Angeles in 1981. He's still singing the same songs today
ReplyDeleteAgree with Sil.
ReplyDeleteHe's got some great tunes but they're all from 30 years ago.
1:29 he's referring to a real estate agent who at the bar always talking about some shitty novel he's working on.
ReplyDeleteThese Billy Joel lyrics so deep, got to really study them to suss out the meaning.
I hear tell that he's gonna come out in an Alex Gordon jersey for the encore and then do a 20 minute extended version of "We Didn't Start The Fire" comeplete with an 8 minute instrumental "boogie down" middle section, at which point Alex himself comes out and then joins him on backing vocals.
ReplyDeleteAt least that's what I heard from all the Billy Joel fan forums onlne.
He's gonna die of old age before he gets here. You heard it here first...
ReplyDeleteHe sucked when he was supposedly current. The Norman Rockwell of rock music.
ReplyDeletemeh
ReplyDeleteSome of you crack me up. This show will be sold out. Care to bet on it?
ReplyDeleteIndifferent to him and his music, but you are absolutely correct.
Deletehas billy joel & george
ReplyDeletebrett cum outta their
closets yet ?
I just thought of something. Geezer Hater needs to hang out backstage with Brett who can tell him all about shitting his pants! GH would be aroused and GB’s biggest fan.
DeleteThe only bakjwoods ass city on earth where Billy Joel can fill a venue that large. No wonder bands in this town play that old 70s shit all the time.
