Background

After completing the 2010 Face to Face Tour with Elton John, Joel left the stage and did not return until 2013. He played several concerts, including Sydney in Australia[3] as well as four concerts in England.[4]

The tour began in Sunrise, Florida, with two concerts at the BB&T Center in January 2014.[5]

Madison Square Garden

The tour created a concert residency at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Joel committed to playing one show a month at Madison Square Garden as long as there is a demand for tickets. His first monthly show at the Garden was January 27, 2014. At his thirteenth consecutive monthly performance (January 9, 2015), Joel broke his 2006 record for the most consecutive sold-out shows at the venue. On July 1, 2015, Joel set the record for most shows at the Garden by a single artist; his 65th all-time show broke the record previously held by Elton John and the Grateful Dead.[6][7] His 74th consecutive monthly (120th all-time) MSG performance was slated for March 2020, but had to be postponed due to COVID-19.[8] The long-running residency has included various guest performers over the years.[9]

Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum

Joel performed the last concert at Long Island's Nassau Coliseum on August 4, 2015, prior to the venue's extensive renovation.[10][11] The venue re-opened its doors on April 5, 2017, with Joel being the arena's first post-renovation event.[12]

Set list

This setlist was performed at the January 11, 2019, concert held at Amway Center in Orlando. It does not represent all shows throughout the tour.[13]
