Every iconic venue deserves an encore. At Shea Stadium, it was only fitting that B. Joel was the legend who brought the curtain down. With Beatlemania at its height in 1965, Shea Stadium in Queens, New York was the site of the first stadium show ever by The Beatles, or any Rock 'n' Roll band for that matter. The Beatles' Shea performances made an impression on a young working-class musician from Long Island named Billy Joel. When the Mets built a new stadium and said goodbye to Shea in 2008, the local native turned superstar was the logical choice to give it a proper sendoff. Billy Joel Live At Shea Stadium features a full concert-length program: more than two hours of hits, history, memories and guest stars including Paul McCartney, all in riveting performances worthy of the historic building where it all went down.
This '08 show from the legendary Shea Stadium features Long Island's own Billy Joel performing hits from throughout his decades long career including "My Life," "Summer, Highland Falls," "We Didn't Start the Fire," and "Scenes From an Italian Restaurant. The Piano Man is joined on stage by such luminaries as Steven Tyler, John Mellencamp, and Who frontman Roger Daltrey. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi |
