Billy Joel planned to dodge the draft if his number came up. He does write good (anti)war songs though. I was quite taken with this once upon a time.
I hate Billy Joel and I’ve always thought that he’s a prize cunt, and I stand by that opinion.

He’s had a few decent tunes, mostly in the 70s bit it’s hard to argue with some of the classics.

Music is always a matter of personal taste and noone should br criticised for not liking any particular artist. I for example wouldn’t go to see Bob Dylan if he was playing in my back garden. Dito the rolling stones
Well he is Austrian. They are all cunts.

I wouldn’t mind seeing one of his shows in Madison Square Garden. He plays there every few months.

No. they are all cunts. A more insular unfriendly shower you won’t find. Apart from Nordies maybe.

He’s not Austrian as far as I know. His father was German
He’s from the Bronx.
Billy is from Bronx yes. But his father was a German Jew and his mother English.
The only connection to Austria is that his father moved there after he divorced
