rocknrobn26 Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Sheesh - it ain't like you'll be livin' long enough to worry about dropping that $250 for a concert. Your old ticker'd probably give out at a show like that anyway... WV........the fight you were askin' for in another thread is gettin' close. Don't make me make a call to Guido and Carmine. They are semi-retired now and get a little annoyed when I ask them for a ball-peen hammer attack. If they have to travel, they would prefer a "pliers and fires" routine. Pick your poison or be nice.

rocknrobn26 Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Saw him with Billy Joel several years ago and it was a great concert. Saw Billy, but our seats were behind the stage in a venue that sucked even in th best seats! Saw Paul Simon, before Africa. He came out on the stage w/ a boombox for background, a stool and 2-3 guitars. Best concert I ever saw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiefjay Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I'm a hugh Elton John fan. The man is a genius.One of my favorite videos is of him and Billy Joel playing "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" - simply awesome. You'll have a good time. ...but if you really don't want to go, I'll take your wife. Man there are some kick asz performances out there. Daniel, Levon, Tiny Dancer, Philadelphia Freedom, etc... I love that part in Almost Famous when they sing Tiny Dancer. Awesome stuff there. I will definately see him again. This time sober or at least somewhat sober.

jaxfactor Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 :raiseshand: I saw his "piano only" show about four years ago or so and it was pretty good. The full band show is apparently very good, so I've been told. I saw that show too a few years ago when the ex talked me into it. I wasn't thrilled that it was in Daytona Beach, about an hour or so away, plus it being just his piano. But other than the nightmare that was horrible parking and getting in and out of the show, it was Captain Fantastic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missoula Griz Posted April 14, 2008 Author Share Posted April 14, 2008 Once he gets done singing his new music for the first half, then its a good show. He played some new tunes during the first 45 minutes. Not bad, but I was not familar with the songs. He had his whole band there. He played without an intermission for over 2 hours. He is unbelievable on the piano. Our seats were good, and we paid only $100.00, which were the highest price seats sold. He played here last October and decided to come back for another show. I really enjoyed the show as did my wife. The concert definately earned me a few more fishing and camping trips with the fellas. It was a win win deal.
