best moment of Billy Joel's Moscow tantrum

whoever got called out by the smash mouth guy should have just sprinted toward him and tackled him

your fave clip of singers getting pissed or stuff getting thrown at them or fights or paul stanley hating lasers

Still can’t get over Billy doing the crouch start before running across the stage and jumping on the piano although I’m happy to pretend that this has happened at every BJ show ever and is just one of his ‘things’

damn the links are all dead of course

it's haunting

hey leave that dead guy alone

it's like the bible when some prophet wonders if there is even 1 or 5 or 10 good people left in the village. and then they check, and nope, none

christie was like "hey billy remember the time you fucking lost it in moscow?". billy joel went "uuunnggghhh, i'm so sick of talking about that". christie's said "oh billy come'ere!" and billy went "uuunnnnggggh, hahaha, alright, alright"

who is that guy?! is the muscle?

is *HE* the muscle

i need a photoshop of her head fully upside down

Looks like some Disney haunted mansion shit

omg, in that Green Day video, there is something about Mike Dirnt dutifully smashing his bass right after Billie Joe starts smashing his guitar that is kinda sweet and absolutely fucking hilarious

ok, and then when Smash Mouth guy is pissed off and talking tough, his band launches into the limp-ass intro to "All Star" ... and then he steps out into the crowd like he's gonna fight and someone yells "Kick his ass, sea bass!"

and the Balmer video?

killer post by Old Lunch back in June, is what i'm sayin'

Always seemed pretty clean cut and upright to me, can't really even picture him drinking but again, haven't spent a great deal of time thinking about this.

That reminds me, he once showed up in the bar in Glasgow I routinely used to drink in after work on Fridays, but I missed him. I was never sure if that story was apocryphal but here's the proof:

I felt a little sorry for Green Day at the time because leading up to that show they had become total fucking shills for iheartmedia. I was stuck listening to alot of car radio at the time, and their testimonial promos for the 'festival' were inescapable on all formats; I think there was even one where one of guys talked about how excited he was to see Usher! They got played so hard by ihm.

BJ did 9/11

Blowy

not as good as Joel flipout, but slapping yr guitarist is a good one!

looks like an Eastern European rock band before the Berlin Wall fell

oh, just saw the YouTube description, heh
