So In my small way I'm a big man on mulberry street

 Holy crap i've been so busy that the blog has been seriously ignored, We have a week left in April and i have only blogged three times. This is actually the third. I'm letting both of my fans down. Taking a quick time out from working on show related stuff to blog. I found something cool on you tube to have on in the background while i blog. Someone  posted a concert that i was actually at in 1990. Billy Joel in Toronto on the Storm front tour. Its bringing back a lot of good memories--its also making me feel really old. Storm Front was my favorite Billy Joel album. You guys might remember the hits that came from it--We Didn't Start The Fire and I go To Extremes.  Watching this concert and thats how i want to remember Billy Joel. Back then he was in his prime. He didn't milk his greatest hits. Unfortunately he hasn't had a new cd since 1993 so  when he does tor its only greatest hits. Back then he used to move around a lot as well and would even get up from the piano once in awhile. These days he doesn't leave the piano much. I know he's older now and i'm not expecting him to jump off the piano like he used to but come on man.   Really feeling nostalgic watching this concert--i was actually there!!   So many good memories from that night. Man that guy could rock. It was the first and only time i got to see him play the songs Shameless and Leningrad. I was still friends with Colin and he was with me at that show. By the way--how was that 23 years ago? It was seriously in my top 10 concerts of all time. Now if someone would just find footage from my first Billy Joel concert back in 1984.
