About

Legendary New York-bred singer-songwriter Billy Joel has toured only sporadically in recent years, but fans have plenty of opportunities to score tickets to see him in concert going forward -- if they're willing to head out to New York's Madison Square Garden. Joel signed an open-ended deal with MSG that will have him playing a concert at the venue once per month for as long as there's demand. And demand has never been a problem for Joel at he historic New York venue; he played his first show there in 1978, and had logged 46 concerts at the arena by 2013. 
New York isn't alone in its love for the singer. Joel has long been established as one of the top-grossing touring artists in the U.S., and has sold more than 150 million records over the course his four-decade career. After recording a long string of hits including "Piano Man," "New York State of Mind," "Just the Way You Are," "You May Be Right," "Pressure," "Uptown Girl," "We Didn't Start the Fire," and  "The River of Dreams," Joel decided that he was done writing pop and rock songs. It's a decision he's stuck with; it's been more than 20 years since he's recorded a new pop or rock album. He's composed new classical material instead, while continuing to play songs from his catalog in concert.

    Even with the rain it was fun

    by CBad Dad on 4/23/24Petco Park - San Diego

    My original tickets were awful, and misrepresented. 7 rows back from the front, but the view was 100ft to the left of the stage looking at metal railing and a sign for restrooms. The good news was that LiveNation remedied the situation. We ended up center 35 rows back. What an improvement. The sound was perfect. Sting is still rock star. The music was tight and engaging, although it did come off a bit procedural. Billy Joel, is out there giving it his best, and is still fun and his band is great. Showcasing some of the individual artists from both bands was a great way to demonstrate the level of talent in both bands. Rain or not, I’m glad I didn’t miss this event.

    Billy and Sting Are the Men!

    by tombones99 on 4/23/24Petco Park - San Diego

    Both put on an amazing show! Sting was the perfect opener for Billy Joel. Billy is still amazing at his age, unbelievable he can bring it in his mid 70's. Sound and vision, the video and light production was top notch!

    The pros pro concert

    by vegasbob on 4/22/24Petco Park - San Diego

    Fifty years and better than ever. The band was point on the entire show and the horn section was phenomenal. Billy Joel packs so much entertainment into his singing and playing. The crowd was also into it all night, in spite of rain and cold.

    Distorted sound - bummer!

    by Maggie on 4/22/24Petco Park - San Diego

    Disappointed in the sound and visual systems at the park. We were in 3rd level and the sound was very distorted. Also disappointed that the concert was not on the big screen. The 2 screens it was projected onto were really only beneficial for the people on lower levels. And then the rain.....Unfortunately we got very wet and had to leave a few songs into Billy Joel's portion of the concert. Good info about PETCO - great for games but would never go to a concert there again.

    Fun Night

    by Fun Night on 4/21/24Petco Park - San Diego

    Billy Joels encore was great, wish it could have lasted longer. Sting was a pleasant surprise. Would liked to have heard Do Do Do Da Da Da.

    The Billy Joel portion of the concert was wonderful, unfortunately the weather did not cooperate and it rained during his entire performance.

    The best of Sting and Billy Joel’s

    by MC on 4/20/24Petco Park - San Diego

    I have seen both Sting and Billy Joel on their own concerts over a dozen times, but this last tour brought up the best of both, and also their team of musicians, all super good!

    As expected

    by Lil Buc on 4/19/24Petco Park - San Diego

    He played a variety of songs, didn’t waste a lot of time talking, he got down to business. The weather could have been better, I believe he was freezing initially.

    Perfect Venue

    by Sandi Castillo on 4/18/24Petco Park - San Diego

    Of course the music was AWESOME. Billy Joel sounds the same today as in years past and the show itself was amazing. But the VENUE was just so great that it made the experience 100 times better. I had not yet been to Petco Park in San Diego, CA before this event and I was really impressed. It was very clean, organized, lots of helpful staff, easy to find your seat, bathrooms were everywhere (and clean and no lines) and the food was just amazing. Food choices were top notch and so many food choices available.
