Good profile:

Without warning, the beloved pop star lost his ability to hear amplified music. Now, from his remote Montana ranch, he's on a search for answers. https://t.co/DcR4E8VGX7

there's a line in one of his songs I can't stop thinking about

"I like the sound of breaking glass/And if you don't believe me, why did ya ask?"

WHAT DO YOU MEAN "why did ya ask??" it's your song!!

His hearing loss seems to be in the news today. Not in the news, only on social media, is that a high school friend of mine found his wallet in the middle of the street in NYC and returned it to him.

What the what

With chart-topping songs such as “Hip to Be Square,” “Do You Believe in Love,” “Workin’ for a Livin’,” and “The Power of Love,” the musical follows a former rock singer who has traded in his guitar for a stable job in corporate America. He’s on the verge of closing the ultimate business deal and winning the girl of his dreams (who’s also the CEO’s daughter) — that is, if he doesn’t jeopardize everything by reuniting with his band for another shot at rock-and-roll glory.

Found out about that when a high school classmate of mine found a wallet in the theater district, figured out it was his and returned it to him.

I’m not surprised about the Broadway musical. If Billy Joel has enough big songs to carry a show like this then so does Huey.
