Howard Stern To Host Billy Joel Town Hall In NYC

Anyone who’s heard Billy Joel’s appearances on The Howard Stern Show knows The Piano Man has a special connection with the host. On April 28 Stern will host a unique sit-down special that pays tribute to Billy Joel at an intimate “secret” location in New York City that will air on Howard Stern’s SiriusXM channel Howard 100 and on Billy Joel’s SiriusXM channel, The Billy Joel Channel.

“Special guests” who will also take part in this “Town Hall” event will be revealed by Howard on upcoming installments of The Howard Stern Show. Stern, as well as audience members, will be able to ask Billy Joel questions about his illustrious career during the session. Joel, and special guests, are also expected to perform as part of the event. 

“The 2010 interview I did with Billy Joel was one of my favorites of my career. Now, this special hits a whole new level, with surprise guests whose lives have been changed by Billy, from the unknown to the famous, giving Billy the tribute, and fans the treat, that they deserve,” said Howard Stern in a statement. “Combining Howard Stern’s amazing interviewing skills and Billy Joel’s musical mastery into one ‘Town Hall’ special makes this the can’t-miss event of the season,” said Scott Greenstein, President and Chief Content Officer, SiriusXM. “Who knows what to expect when The Piano Man and The King of All Media sit down together. Subscribers in the room are going to love it, as will our nation of listeners.”
