Pianos postponed: Billy Joel’s illness delays sold-out Buffalo show with Elton John

Billy Joel ill; Joel/John Buffalo show postponed

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Billy Joel and Elton John have postponed their concert in Buffalo, N.Y., because Joel isn’t feeling well.

Concert promoters say Joel’s doctors advised him not to perform Friday’s sold-out show at HSBC Arena after he came down with flu-like symptoms.

A new date for the concert, a stop on the pair’s Face 2 Face tour, is expected to be announced next week.
