I know true country fans say he isn't country but the guy great entertainer been to all his shows in back home in Ireland. Will never forget his first croke park concerts they were unbelievable . Especially when he sang American pie unbelievable night
I was at this show. What a wonderful experience. It was a loooooong day, but so worth it. I live in NYC, Garth Brooks on this night owned NYC. It was a terrific experience.
I was there too. The first time my parents gave me a bit of freedom. My feet hurt for a week going from Jersey to the park in cowboy boots, but damn it was worth it!
Watched this live on HBO. As a native Long Islander I was raised to be a Billy Joel fan. 11 Years later, I saw Garth live when he came out to sing Shameless as a duet with Billy at Last Play at Shea. Still the best show I ever went to ❤
Don McLean and Billy Joel coming on stage with Mr County at The Garden! Voice of the people the fans singing with Mr County. Simply the Best ever of New York!
Still have memories of watching this amazing concert with my own band (played mostly metal and rock) and just enjoying the hell out of it all. Garth was an incredible entertainer and artist.
I was here, first time I had ever heard of Garth Brooks, let alone hear him. Was really impressed by his hustle. Went for a free Billy Joel concert lol
When at this truly magical place. Looked up and Started singing you're on fire (part of the stage was). If only this time 1997 can be New York and Garth giving best memories.........
@@natebutler3257 so what's the point, if your not watching it? Obviously you're not knowing what's been experienced by the people who were there and have watched! Some people!
I was born in the 90s lived whole life in manhattan. It shatters my heart to know these days where actual diversity of thoughts, opinions, cultures, people ideas, and different music were prevelant. It was nice while it lasted! I don’t think i can watch nascar at a bar here anymore and i dont think a big country concert like this would ever happen anymore sadly. It is so homogeneous here now. Bland. Boring.
Fun fact: Billy Joel wrote a LOT of Garth's songs. Thats why his songs were so heavy with piano over most any other country artist. This wasnt random at all.
I Realy Like you garth!!hehe ha i am litle bit manic now i hawent drikking alkohol or drugs only my antideprisiva cipralex osv iam Loving musikklower filmloower!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
As much as I love this collaboration, and I truly do, did anyone notice the HUGE musician mess up in the intro to the song?? They recovered well, but as a musician, who has spent half his life (mine) on stage there was a BIG mess up. Listen after the count down to the start. They came in on the wrong note. Now in a bar band setting, the recovery saves the song. But at a pro-level (that I’m sure Garth pays) this flub should have NEVER happened. I’m positive someone, if not a few people got fired.
Such a huge stage for a dude who doesn't dance well or interact with audience closely, I say extreme! + The ear piece wrap around microphone just looks stupid. I can't believe that many ppl were in Central Park, had to of been record setting. I don't remember this from back them, I liked Garth to a point. Love Billy Joels music, have since childhood.
I have no idea what politics has to do with this, but I will point out that Billy is a Democrat and campaigned for Obama. He openly mocked Trump on stage a few times at MSG and was outraged after Trump's take on the Charlottesville riots
I will never ever forget this concert. Easily one of the greatest I've ever attended.
Country Meets Rhythm and Blues combined ❤
I wish I could have been there.🎉❤❤
Always good to hear professional musicians duetting together.....the mutual love and respect is amazing.

Watched this live still the best show I have ever seen.
Garth always keeping eye contact with Billy! Loved when he got on the piano!
Don McLean and Billy Joel coming on stage with Mr County at The Garden! Voice of the people the fans singing with Mr County. Simply the Best ever of New York!
This was at Central Park, not the Garden.
@@thelevisullivan Of course we know this, numnuts. People would like to have it as their garden. Gee, you should get your self an Education!
😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Garth maybe Mr. Country. But George Strait is King of Country.
This is incredible. Billy Joel and Elton John are also great together.
It was the best concert i have ever seen with my significant other. I will remember for the rest of my life.
Still have memories of watching this amazing concert with my own band (played mostly metal and rock) and just enjoying the hell out of it all. Garth was an incredible entertainer and artist.
Was at the concert, great night with over a MILLION people !!!! The crowd was HUGE !!!!!
Two of the very greatest !
Billy Joel is a natural country singer 😊
He could literally sing the telephone book and create a gold record!
Amazing. I had a smile on my face for this entire video. You can tell Brooks is such a fan, and they have so much respect for each other.
This is fantastic! Two of my favorite entertainers. Thank you so much for sharing this legendary concert! ♥️
Glad you enjoyed it!
I was here, first time I had ever heard of Garth Brooks, let alone hear him. Was really impressed by his hustle. Went for a free Billy Joel concert lol

@@natebutler3257 so what's the point, if your not watching it? Obviously you're not knowing what's been experienced by the people who were there and have watched! Some people!
AM to PM, great to listen to any time of day/night
Remember when New York was a decent place. You could get a slice. Watch people. Enjoy the New York state of mind.

NYC is still the most amazing place in the world
It's safe to say this is forever
We need papa loved mama and the fever from this concert soon
Cuanta admiración de Garth hacia Billy , es que es un maestro !!!
5:35 Did Garth just knock the water battle off the piano onto Billy Joel? lol
Thank you for posting this. Brings back memories of how great this concert truly was. ❤
Me habéis alegrado la decada
Wish he was here doing a concert in jax
I am almost positive I have this on tape some where lol😊

greatest concert ever 👍😃
Tell me this ain't classy. Its 100% Awesome
Song 1) Ain't Goin' Down ('til the Sun Comes Up) to 6min .33 sec. 2) New York State of Mind.
Fun fact: Billy Joel wrote a LOT of Garth's songs. Thats why his songs were so heavy with piano over most any other country artist. This wasnt random at all.
Ummm...he only wrote one of Garth's songs and that was Shameless.
I saw this live on PPV.
Hell yes.
It was a better time back then.
Love Garth ❤
Sheepshead bay... Very nice Garth!

Upon further listening, it was the bass players mistake (shocker)
Even at pro level people make mistakes. Doubt they would get fired for one mistake. Being a musican myself no one is above mistakes even at that level
What's not to like?
Is garth going to be at trumps inauguration?
why did he get on the piano like that
He was just in the moment and I think a touch embarrassed when he realized what he was doing 😂
This is when new york was a place to go
😪😪😪😪😪😪😪
Such a huge stage for a dude who doesn't dance well or interact with audience closely, I say extreme! + The ear piece wrap around microphone just looks stupid. I can't believe that many ppl were in Central Park, had to of been record setting. I don't remember this from back them, I liked Garth to a point. Love Billy Joels music, have since childhood.
Too bad Garth has turned to the dark side. Luckily for all of us though, Billy is still true to his nature and always will be.
What do you mean "the dark side"? 🤔 I'm not aware.
Garth is a liberal, but i still love his music! His music has really helped me in my life
Maybe you should examin your brains! Whats wrong with lovin people???
@@KyleLeeuw What has being a liberal got to do with anything important.? Its music leave politics out of it.
I have no idea what politics has to do with this, but I will point out that Billy is a Democrat and campaigned for Obama. He openly mocked Trump on stage a few times at MSG and was outraged after Trump's take on the Charlottesville riots
The politics of new york has ruined new york what a ashame
I've always that that song was so stupid
Cant stand him
Dublin,, Three incredible nights,, genius,,25 years ago
NY used to be such a magical place. It’s an absolute dump now.
Two democrats together he was ok not a Garth fan. He simply ruined country music.
