I wouldn’t have heard it over my louder guitar and trumpet playing,

 

[Feeding Crows]

LOL shite, i wish we would have met back then, because we coulda jammed!!!! What a small world!

i left in 2004, so I was there from about 1997 to 2004. I had the biggest house in Levittown. Not that i made it, it's the prior owners with their 14 kids...

 

[Feeding Crows]

prior to that I was from New Hyde Park, on the Queens side.

One of the saddest stories in Rock n Roll history is Billy Joel.
Amazing songwriter. One great song after another and another... then one day... nothing.
He developed writers block, and then his personal life also went to hell with alcoholism and heroin abuse.
He just simply lost the ability.
Refusing for years to stop daily drunkenness and drug use.
Apparently it just numbed him

 

[Feeding Crows]

So you were doing the LIRR as well

It's so cool to meet someone from back home! We were practically neighbors! My wife and I moved to AZ in 2004.

Apparently everything is ok now...

Hardly... he still isn't writing anymore music.
Hasn't for decades

 

[Feeding Crows]

He just plays the hits dude. He even told Elton to do the same thing. He's 73 years old! What more do you want from him?

Geez, gimme a break!

 

[Feeding Crows]

Shut up and let me listen to the greatest songwriter outside of Paul!

 

[Feeding Crows]

And Mr Clean is welcome to sing with me! And you all are too!
