He puts on a great show. I dont know if it was because it was my first concert or not but I still rank that as the best concert I've ever been to. Saw the two of them at the Tabernacle in Atlanta, which is an awesome venue.

 

[RockyTop572]

Elton John and Billy Joel together. Suckas.

One of my friends had an uncle that was the night caretaker there. We had a lot of fun running around that place. Got to see a lot of very good shows for free.
