Elton John and Billy Joel's Face to Face Tour
2009 March 16
On Saturday, March 7th, we took my mom to see Elton John and Billy Joel in concert on their “Face 2 Face” tour. The concert was held at the Time Warner Arena in Charlotte, NC. It was a fantastic show. The two piano legends played for over three hours, showcasing a night that was excellent in setlist, sight, and sound. It was truly a terrific concert. While I could have done without Zanzibar in Billy Joel’s set, I was overjoyed that Elton John began with Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding.
Someone has finally posted the Charlotte setlist online. Included with the setlist was a positive show review. Read that here. I am posting the setlist myself, seen below.
