RIP to an absolute legend.
Got to see him twice: Once as a solo act and once with Black Sabbath.

Saw him a few times. Maybe the best was with Elton John because they're both incredible but in completely different ways. Watching them play alongside each other showed just how amazing their songwriting, playing and performing truly is.
BREAKING: Billy Joel has been diagnosed with Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH), a brain disorder that causes issues with hearing, vision, and balance. As a result, all of his upcoming tour dates have been canceled → cons.lv/ad9uk7

Bob Mould’s band is amazing. Jason Narducy. Jon Wurster.
Wurster may just have the record for Waiting Room performances. (Mould, Superchunk, Mountain Goats, etc.)
