Two legends hit the stage together on Wednesday night, when Bruce Springsteen made a surprise appearance at Billy Joel’s 100th concert at New York City’s Madison Square Garden.
Springsteen, 68, dressed in his signature black T-shirt and jeans, launched into his classic hits “Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out” and “Born to Run.” The two also warmly embraced onstage.
The night marked a special occasion, as 69-year-old Joel is now the artist with the most lifetime performances at Madison Square Garden.
Joel’s adorable 2-year-old daughter, Della Rose, also made an appearance at the special show at one point, sitting on his lap. The Piano Man shares Della Rose and daughter Remy — who was born last October — with his wife, Alexis, and is also a dad to his eldest daughter, 32-year-old Alexa, whom he had with ex-wife Christie Brinkley.:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/gettyimages-92810551-2000-312156db025e470d995ce55afdb4d71d.jpg)
Joel’s official Instagram account shared a photo of the the singer and Springsteen performing together, writing, “There were 100 shows’ worth of memories at Billy’s unprecedented 100th show at @TheGarden — including a special appearance by @springsteen! Thanks to all the fans who shared this magical night with us. #BillyJoelMSG100.”
Meanwhile, Springsteen on Broadway launches globally on Netflix on Dec. 15, which is also the final night of Springsteen’s completely sold out 236-show run at Jujamcyn’s Walter Kerr Theatre on Broadway.
