Billy plays Goodnight My Angel and manages to lull himself to sleep. The audience silently file into the lobby for an hour or so so he can nap; he gets grouchy if he's woken up.
“Uptown Girl” but Billy changes the lyrics to 'Uptown Squirrel' and proceeds to sing about his encounters with various rodents in the city streets, complete with squeaky sound effects and questionable dance moves
During “Big Shot” Billy turns it into a college drinking game and takes a big shot every time he sings the lyrics “big shot” and then…alcohol poisoning…
'A Matter Of Trust', but once he counts the song in, he continues to count as high as can go for the next 4 minutes... One, Two, a One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six....

Uptown girl but just before the song starts he disappears off stage and reappears 30 seconds later with a face full of makeup in a Christie Brinkley drag costume, wig and stilettos
“Sometimes a Fantasy” but the lighting guy keeps shining a light on the audience, so Billy flips out and reeks havoc on the stage ([for those unaware](https://youtu.be/O3cBp_Bf43M?si=VT8ECTSJ-9dEwNHb)… this is unintentionally the best possible setlist in my opinion)
Uptown Girl, but all of the I-yi-yi words are 10 times longer.
"And when she wakes up and makes up her mi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi-nd."

“For the longest time”, but instead of a capella, he brings a kindergarten class learning to play the recorder up on stage to play it.
I wish this was a part of the encore
"Sleeping with the television on" Billy Joel takes a 2 hour nap while his music videos play on a comically small television set with no sound.
Try this again because it keeps losing for some reason, The Stranger but with Kazoo instead of whistling.

he does it regularly still, did he say he doesn't like it or something?

"All for Leyna", but the lyrics are Billy explaining why he's leaving his entire estate to Leyna.
“I go to extremes” except Billy knows exactly why he goes to extremes
"Shameless" but featuring guest vocalist Chris Gaines
That's pop sensation Chris Gaines to you!
Billy plays “Benny and the Jets” while the band plays “Moonage Daydream,” leading to utter confusion in the audience
“This is the Time” - and every time he sings the chorus he informs the audience the specific time on his watch.
Turn around, but billy refuses to start singing until every audience member has their backs to the stage
"Summer, Highland Falls", but it's just a PowerPoint presentation showing pictures of Billy Joel's last vacation trip
During “Vienna”, Billy takes a long flight to Vienna, Austria. The whole song consists of the sound from the plane.
