Post Description

The Piano Man and the Rocket Man began co-headlining their Face 2 Face Tours in 1994, shortly after Joel stopped writing pop albums. The lumbering double-header they brought to Tokyo could have been staged that same year, in fact, without any alteration of the 23-song set list. Even 62-year-old Sir Elton, who actually has continued to make new pop music in the present century, focused on material he wrote in his 20s and played nothing more recent than 1983's "I'm Still Standing." 
Given the cheers that erupted when their dual grand pianos rose portentously from the bowels of the stage just before game time, it was surprising that neither star ventured a solo take on one of his countless hits during a combined 3 1/2 hours onstage. 

Although each brought his own band, the ensembles sounded equally anonymous. Crystal Taliefero's hand-drumming brought some buoyancy to "We Didn't Start the Fire," the "list" song that inspired a thousand high school history projects. Mostly, though, the arrangements were as predictable as the song selection, aside from having been adapted to voices grown thicker with age -- more noticeably in the case of John, whose range was greater to begin with.
