Billy Joel

In June 2018, Billy Joel delivered an electric performance of 'Zanzibar' at the Old Trafford Football Stadium in Manchester, part of his ongoing journey as a celebrated live performer. Before this show, he released his album 'River of Dreams' back in 1993, which includes hits like the title track and 'The Great Wall of China,' highlighting his unique blend of pop and rock influences. By 2018, Joel was already a seasoned veteran of the stage, known for his engaging performances and deep connection with audiences. Interestingly, he has a remarkable tradition of playing at major venues—it was just a few years earlier that he held his 100th performance at Madison Square Garden. What a testament to his staying power! Seeing him live in such a historic stadium emphasizes not only his iconic status but also his ability to adapt and remain relevant across decades.
