Billy Joel stole the show. I saw him at Poplar Creek 15 years ago, maybe longer. Awesome show. Was he as bad as The Who at the Super Bowl

Was he as bad as The Who at the Super Bowl His voice is shot, and he doesn't really perform anymore. He sits for almost all of the show. Anything that is the old high notes he either drops down a few octaves, or his back up singers do it for him. As for something more age appropriate, I hear they have a magician at Ryan's during the early bird buffet

Billy Joel stole the show. I saw them together the first time out back in the early 90s. Contrary to your exerience, that first time around Elton John was definitely the better performer.
