Billy Joel and Elton John have been planning a US star this summer, but it has just been canceled due to Billy’s year-long career hiatus. Their last show will be March 11th in Albany, which means they’re are skipping their highly anticipated show at Wrigley Field.
“As far as I know, there will be no more Billy and Elton shows after the Albany show in New York on March 11th. It’s not my decision, it’s Billy’s. He has decided to take a year off,” said John.
Considering Joel’s last few months (i.e. the divorce and then daughter hospitalized), we completely understand his decision!
“I’m so disappointed because when we came to Wrigley Field last year… it was like playing in the church of baseball. I was so delighted to be there, and we had such a wonderful two days. It (Joel’s hiatus) doesn’t gel with my plans but he’s a friend. And as an artist, you have to respect his decision,” Elton continued.
Hope to see you guys next year!
