That's right, it's the Piano Man himself, Billy Joel, and it looks like he was already a rabble-rouser back in his school days.

Joel's in what you might call semi-retirement nowadays, having not released a rock-based studio record since 1993. He did put out a 2001 album of his classical compositions entitled 'Fantasies and Delusions,' although the piano on that was performed by another musician.

Luckily, he's not fully gone away. You can occasionally catch Joel on tour performing his massive catalog of classic hits. He made news back in December of 2012 by stealing the show at the televised benefit for victims of Hurricane Sandy. You can keep up with all of Joel's activities at his official website, BillyJoel.com.
