Billy is still ROCKIN!!!

Anyone who was at our wedding reception knows that we LOVE Billy Joel! Our favorite song is Scenes from An Italian Restaurant (our first dance at our reception!). Anyhow, anytime Billy comes into town, we are always there! This tour with Elton John was no exception, even though we have seen them together, I think, 3 times!
My mom agreed to watch the boys on a Thursday night (thanks, Nana!) while we were at the almost 4 hour concert!!! Our good friends (who have also lived in the NY/NJ area) share our love of Billy and Elton. We met up with Jennifer and Robb. Here Jennifer and Dan "rock" out! They both knew all the words to We Didn't Start the Fire...unbelievable!!!
We also went with Kristin and her new "friend," Mike, who is a piano player at The Big Bang, who also LOVES Billy Joel! He even quit his 9 to 5 job to follow in Billy's footsteps!!! Unfortunately, Mike, had amazing seats, just 6 rows from the stage, ours weren't so great! Luckily they had some amazing Hi-Def screens for us to watch!!! :)
Here is Elton...his costumes were amazing!!!
Ahhh...and here is Billy...I seriously LOVE him. Dan has certainly okayed me marrying him, if the opportunity should ever arise! :) Honestly though, Billy puts on an AMAZING show and he is 60 years old! WOW!!!
I had a conference I had to go to the next morning and I had to meet a co-worker at 7 a.m., but getting home around 1 a.m. was SO worth! Can't wait until they tour again!!!
