Didn’t make it to Billy Joel’s electrifying concert in Orlando two weekends ago? His old band has got your back.
The piano man’s longtime drummer Liberty DeVito, saxophonist Richie Cannata, and rhythm guitarist Russell Javors pieced together The Lords of 52nd Street in 2014, and they stick to performing hits and deep cuts exclusively from Joel albums that they appeared on.
You won’t hear “We Didn’t Start The Fire,” but if your favorite is somewhere between 1976’s “Turnstiles “and 1981’s “Glass Houses,” you might want to mosey down to downtown C-town.
