No, an article from 2015 didn’t just accidentally get re-published: Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Billy Joel is coming back to Chicago’s Wrigley Field on Aug. 26, 2016 for his third performance at the venue in three years. Tickets, which run from $49.50-$129.50, go on sale Saturday, Jan. 23 at 10 a.m. via Cubs.com/BillyJoel.
According to a press release, he’s the first artist to play there three consecutive years, which is pretty cool considering he also holds the record for most concerts at the baseball stadium with four (soon to be five).
Last year, Joel made headlines for bringing your best friends Amy Schumer and Jennifer Lawrence onstage during his rendition of “Uptown Girl.” (Comedian Kyle Dunnigan was onstage too but no one really talks about it.) Let’s hope there are more suprises in store this year—like maybe Schumer’s “Trainwreck” co-star Lebron James? Watch video from that night below.
