1995 concert tour by Elton John and Billy Joel


After the huge success of the previous year's Face to Face concerts[1] Billy Joel and Elton John set out on the road again.[2] They only reunited for twelve concerts visiting both the United States[3][4][5] and Canada. They played from California down to Florida covering eight states and also Toronto.[6]

Quick Facts Start date, End date ...

The concerts took the same form as the previous year where John and Joel with their bands would perform a few songs together, then John would take to the stage with his band without Joel. Joel would then do his own set followed by a reunion on stage with John before leaving stage. They would return for a few songs for an encore.[7][8]

Joel stated in 2012 that he would no longer tour with Elton because it restrains his setlists.[9][10]
