1) "Don't take shit from anybody." Seriously, that's how you end the concert? Was there any context to this? He must have been on Jose Reyes side of the Keith Hernandez-Jose Reyes kerkuffle.

2) Where's Ringo?

@BigRicks: Hey, he's an angry young man. (Who ended Wednesday night's show with the same epigraph.)

The weirdest thing about the show that I don't think anyone mentioned: One song was set to a reel of Great Mets Moments, and said reel must have been edited by the biggest Benny Agbayani fan ever, as he got more screen time than anything else -- the catch, Mike Piazza, the '86 celebrations. Unfortunately there was no shot of Bobby V in disguise, though.

The Beatles' room? Wasn't there a baseball team that played there? I seem to recall such a thing...

@Captain Wrong: first place!!!

@BigRicks: Joel's been ending his concerts with that line for decades. It's all very "Guyland."

The only time I've ever seen him was back in '89, and he was ending with "Don't take any shit..." then, too -- and this was back when he was pretty content (on top of charts, married to Christie, actually keeping the money he made, etc.). It'll be the last remaining chip on his shoulder, the one he takes to the grave.

That's funny. I always thought Shea Stadium belonged to Chipper Jones.

@Reidicus: Oh you better watch it ;)
