Billy Joel - Live Performance of Only the Good Die Young in Raleigh, NC

Venue: Raleigh Entertainment and Sports Arena Location: Raleigh, North Carolina, United States Date: December 21, 1999

On December 21, 1999, Billy Joel performed live at the Raleigh Entertainment and Sports Arena, showcasing his remarkable catalog. This concert came shortly after the release of his compilation album, 'Greatest Hits Volume III,' which had dropped in 1997. By this time, Joel was a seasoned artist, known for his storytelling songs and live performances that captivated audiences. Interesting tidbit: by 1999, he was also thinking about retiring from touring, leading fans to appreciate these live shows even more. The energy in the arena that night was electric, as Billy seamlessly transitioned between classics, such as 'Only the Good Die Young,' leaving a lasting impression on both devoted fans and newer listeners alike.
