Billy Joel "Piano Man" - An American Icon

Each of us have those songs, that take us back and give us that feeling of "days gone by!"

Of happy times!

I was blessing to see Billy Joel in 2009 in Phoenix, Arizona with my brother, Walker and his wife, Dianne and my mother, Rose. What a concert.

And I love Billy's Story! His story is one of Hope.

Billy was featured on CBS this morning and is also one of the 5 extraordinary artists Americans celebrated on Sunday, December 8th, 2013.

Recipients honored at the 36th annual national celebration of the arts were: opera singer Martina Arroyo; pianist, keyboardist, bandleader and composer Herbie Hancock; pianist, singer and songwriter Billy Joel; actress Shirley MacLaine; and musician and songwriter Carlos Santana.


The Kennedy Center Honors provide recognition to living individuals who throughout their lifetimes have made significant contributions to American culture through the performing arts. The primary criterion is excellence, and artistic achievement in dance, music, theater, opera, motion pictures, and television is considered.
The gala will be broadcast on CBS on December 29, 2013 at 9:00-11:00 p.m., ET/PT

I know I will be watching. Won't you watch with me?

What a concert!

Enjoy!




A little about Lady Road Dog....
I am the Founder and CEO of DesignWraps Brands, a proud "Made in America" manufacturing company, offering headwear and apparel to the "motorcycle culture" as well as women suffering from hair loss.

I am on a 36 month motorcycle trip, promoting the purchase of American Made Products, promoting the preservation of our Bill of Rights and inspiring Hope in Americans.

I purchased my first Harley-Davidson in 1986. She was a Candy Apple Red Softtail Custom and I loved her with the same passion as my sweet Street Glide. But it was a much different women who rode those highways of America in those lazy days of the 80's.

Follow me as I continue my journey traveling across America, visiting every licensed Harley-Davidson dealership in the lower 48 and who knows......a trip to Alaska is in the works.
