» Billy Joel

It has been almost seven years since Billy Joel last launched a major solo concert tour, but tickets are finally available for the legends highly anticipated 2006 circuit. The "Piano Man" began his career with British cover band "The Echoes" after catching the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1964, and the rest as they say, is history.

On the heels of releasing his self-crafted compilation of personal favorites entitled "My Lives", Billy Joel seems poised to give audiences everything they would expect, and a lot more. The 4 disc box set (and DVD) includes rare demos (Piano Man Demo, 1973) and previously unreleased live recordings of hits like "Captain Jack" & "New York State of Mind".

An inductee into the Songwriter's Hall of Fame in '92 and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in '99, Joel clearly has nothing left to prove... he's just got a lot left to play!
