Billy Joel wraps up 10-year residency at Madison Square Garden. The music icon kicked off the residency in January 2014 and played at the venue once every month over the next decade. With his final show on Thursday, he set a record for the arena by giving his 150th lifetime performance on its stage. To mark the occasion, talk show host Jimmy Fallon joined Joel to present him with a banner celebrating 150 shows at the New York venue. ”Congratulations. I love you. New York City loves you. The world loves you. You've given us all great memories of being here. And now we get to watch you get a memory. You're never going to forget this night here.” Joel's two youngest daughters, Della, eight, and Remy, six, then took to the stage to join him as he performed his 1978 hit My Life. The Piano Man hitmaker was also joined on stage by Guns N' Roses star Axl Rose. The duo performed renditions of Wings' Live and Let Die and AC/DC's Highway to Hell. Joel then continued with a number of hits including Uptown Girl, Only The Good Die Young, Piano Man and We Didn't Start The Fire before inviting Axl back on stage for the final song of the night, You May Be Right. Joel, 75, will travel to the U.K. in August to play a stadium show in Cardiff, Wales with Chris Isaak. He will then play a series of headlining shows in North America, sharing the bill with Rod Stewart or Sting.
