Doesn't Stevie have some health issues that have forced her to cancel some recent shows?

The guy agreed and evidently it was one of the best burgers Billy Joel ever ate.


prob so if it was 3am.... I remember thinking the same thing about Cane's around 3am at LSU.

Anyway, BJ still sells out Madison Square Garden regularly. I've never seen him and wouldn't mind seeing him in NOLA.

I don't hate the arena for concerts

But, House of Blues is a great venue

We've got floor seats to see Joel and Nicks at Met Life Stadium in East Rutherford in August. The stadium is configured for a concert, so think 65-70 percent of total seats were offered for sale. But the concert sold out within a couple days.

I went with my parents to see Billy Joel at Cajundome in the 80s. That was during era when he’d do a backflip off piano.

I remember knowing Uptown Girl & Pressure at the time but the helicopter sounds for that Saigon song are the most clear memory from concert.

So you don’t like him because he divorced Christy??? Wow. I’m not saying it was a smart move by any means but still the dude has cranked out some very iconic tunes.

It’s certainly a departure from Kendrick Lamar

he sells out fooball stadiums all the time.

But I hate how they’re all playing football stadiums these days this really should be in the arena

I posted it on the music board before it was announced. Had I saw it here I would have spoiled that announcement

My Mother in Law's favorite band is Fleetwood.

Last time Stevie Nicks was in town my wife took her for her birthday to the show. She basically played all solo stuff from her latest albums and basically no FM songs. They were quite pissed

Canes used to be packed at 3AM back in the day. I still remember someone telling me "there is that place raising canes right outside of the north gates, they have the best chicken fingers".

Thank you for showing us that your music opinions suck

Stevie on the other hand might be one of the greatest female vocalists ever.

This is the only true thing you've said.

Music will be terrible at the dome. Acoustics are awful.
