Scrambling to find last-minute NYC Valentine’s Day plans?
If that’s the case, we humbly recommend spending it with Mr. New York himself, Billy Joel.
On Tuesday, Feb. 14, Joel will extend his record-shattering Madison Square Garden residency when he plays at the venue for the 134th time.
Most remarkably, tickets to see the 73-year-old Joel live on this V-Day are surprisingly inexpensive.
In fact, at the time of publication, we found some going for as low as $50 before fees on Vivid Seats.
It doesn’t matter if you’re a “Piano Man” or “Uptown Girl” — that’s a great price to see a Rock and Roll Hall of Famer and five-time Grammy winner.
Lower level seats for the gig start at $115 before fees.
$228 before fees is the lowest price we found for floor seats.
All prices are subject to fluctuation.

Billy Joel set list
Having had so many shows at the Garden, one has to wonder, “Does Billy Joel play the same songs every time?”
The answer is…sort of.
Joel tends to open each show with the theme from “The Natural.” From there, he usually — but not always — jumps into “A Matter Of Trust.”
Obviously, he plays the hits you know and love like “Piano Man,” “Big Shot,” “It’s Still Rock and Roll To Me,” “We Didn’t Start The Fire” and “Movin’ Out (Anthony’s Song)” but Mr. Long Island also mixes some curios and covers in as well.
Want to know which Beatles and Stones songs he puts his own spin on?
You can see a record of every single one of Joel’s concerts here at Set List FM.
Plus, if you really want to turn back time, you can see what Joel played way back at his first gig back in Hempstead, NY in Nov. 1971 on the site too.
