I've seen him 4 or 5 times in sold out stadiums/arenas here in NC. To call him irrelevant outside of NY is just not true.I think that’s the point - he’s pretty irrelevant outside of the NY-area. And they’ve gone to that well like 100x already.

It's definitely not happening in April, just waiting on Ticketbastard to open another refund window since we have a wedding in the keys on 4/17 anyway.I'm expecting the Charlotte concert to get postponed another year...
If I remember correctly they asked him at the announcement to play the first concert at the arena.Wasn't Billy Joel at the groundbreaking or the announcement of the arena? I'm thinking it's him without question. We can probably eliminate JayZ, right?
And who are those people attending in NC? Years of transplants...so, same crowd, different location.I've seen him 4 or 5 times in sold out stadiums/arenas here in NC. To call him irrelevant outside of NY is just not true.
So let me get this straight...he literally sells out every stadium and arena in every market he plays (Arlington, Denver, London, St Louis, Indianapolis, SLC, KC, Chicago, Hamburg, Frankfurt...you get the point) and it is ALL NY transplants buying the tickets?And who are those people attending in NC?

Like dogshit.So let me get this straight...he literally sells out every stadium and arena in every market he plays (Arlington, Denver, London, St Louis, Indianapolis, SLC, KC, Chicago, Hamburg, Frankfurt...you get the point) and it is ALL NY transplants buying the tickets?
Man...we are truly everywhere.

Regardless, claiming Billy Joel is irrelevant outside of NY was his point...which is simply not true.I don't think selling out is the same thing as creating buzz though. There are plenty of older acts who can sell out arenas and I don't think that's creating buzz. In fact, I think it's the opposite, it's same old fans seeing the same old act again. A bunch of 60 year old people going to a concert isn't "buzz" to me.

Anywho...it's all moot now anyway with the announcement of The Weeknd being the artist.

Maybe not ,and I'm not a Billy Joel fan however us boomers don't care about creating Buzz we are just loving life! We had the best Rock n Roll by far the music of the 60's and 70's blows everything else away and we have the money to go see them over and over and over.I don't think selling out is the same thing as creating buzz though.

Dude? Seriously? He's one of the highest selling artists worldwide in the last 50 years.I think that’s the point - he’s pretty irrelevant outside of the NY-area. And they’ve gone to that well like 100x already.
Let Springsteen open the place. Not only is he, well......Springsteen, his new album is very very good.

Joel and Springsteen opener...the 80s never end around these parts...Let Springsteen open the place. Not only is he, well......Springsteen, his new album is very very good.
If they have to have some over the hill rockers, then let it be The Who or Pink Floyd.You want some Jersey asshole to open the new Lawn Guyland arena?! What blasphemy!
I vote for The Golden Grass and @Strummergas. Let’s show some love for our own.If they have to have some over the hill rockers, then let it be The Who or Pink Floyd.
