Capt. Fantastic and the Piano Man

Friday, March 5th, 2010

This morning, I set out to astound you with my thoughts about the Elton John & Billy Joel concert I saw the other night.  I figured what a great thing this is to blog about; two ROCK LEGENDS live on stage, “Face 2 Face,” turning out classic song after classic song, sending every fan into their own nostalgic musical frenzy.  After completing what I thought was going to become my blog entry, I passed it on to my lovely wife (the true writer of our crew and whom I dearly respect and love) to get her always honest opinion. “It sucks”, was the response I received. “Too much like a review”.  So I sat back down and thought hard about what I was really trying to do.  Explain the experience of a concert of this caliber, a musical experience, something that you need to experience with your senses, with a few words on a blog.  IMPOSSIBLE!

Unable to bring my usual plethora of equipment into this venue-precision lenses, tripods, etc.-I was forced to use my wife’s point and shoot. Once again, I turn to my passion for photography and leave you with a photo from the concert.

Elton John & Billy Joel

If you listen real close you can you can still hear the sound of 15,000 strong belting out “Piano Man”.
