Great Comment about the Hamptons Gigs by Billy Joel

As part of this summer series event in the Hamptons, artists like Billy Joel,Prince, Dave Matthews have all been doing these 3000 dollar ticket shows, of course we remember Prince's comments at his show, but Billy Joel's were priceless. He was quoted in todays paper saying "that he was watching Dave Matthews play but couldnt stay because everyone was asking him for pictures and stuff" then they asked him how he like playing these type of shows, Billy said "theyre ok, but most of the crowd isnt into the show because theyre too cool and rich" and then they asked Billy if he would pay 3000 to see anyone and he said "hell no, just the Beatles and Hendrix" .

"We went where our music was appreciated, and that was everywhere but the USA, we knew we had fans, but there is only so much of the world you can play at once" Magne F
