Kid asks Billy Joel if he can play with him during a Q&A.
 
This is awesome.

This guy asks Billy if he can play with him during a Q&A and Billy says ok. He then proceeds to blow everybody away.

That was so awesome. Apparently it happened in January and he was on the Today show today.

Put a smile on my face as the work day begins to come to a close.

Billy Joel is truly a star !! What a fantastic memory he created with the young man.

svandamme 03-13-2013 01:25 PM
he can play, but i felt he was over doing the piano for that particular song.
Billie Joel plays it very gently...

DUK 03-13-2013 03:18 PM

Of course he was. He wasn't playing to fulfill a boyhood dream. He was auditioning for you watching this vid. A great backup musician knows how to follow to make the front man look good. Billy Joel was a good sport and let him show out. His chops are good but he hasn't learned how to put some soul into it yet. He'll get there. It takes a lot of guts to do it and not choke. Props to him.

Well put. I was thinking the same thing. Billy gave him his room to shine. Class act.

Dang Cheese.....excellent video! Billy Joel is great as well as the kid. You really are the cheesiest! And I mean that in the best way possible. :)

Thank you!

Hard-Deck 03-13-2013 04:31 PM
What an excellent video and memory!

O'Grady 03-13-2013 04:34 PM
Just one more tour, please.

Por_sha911 03-13-2013 04:48 PM
Billy Joel really is an all-around artist: song-writer & entertainer and not just a musician. Not bad for a skinny kid from Oyster Bay LI.
That song and The Ballad of Billy the Kid are the best. Piano Man and Captain Jack are a close 2nd.
