Music legend and Long Island icon Billy Joel recently announced the indefinite cancellation of upcoming tour dates after being diagnosed with a debilitating cognitive function and brain condition called “Normal pressure hydrocephalus.”

Broken-hearted fans did not have to see the lights go out on Broadway for too long, though, as the Long Island Music and Entertainment Hall of Fame (LIMEHOF) announced a special discount on tickets for its exclusive Joel-themed exhibit moving forward. 

Entitled “Billy Joel My Life: A Piano Man’s Journey,” one of the LIMEHOF museum’s premier offerings is located at 97 Main Street in Stony Brook. Tickets can be purchased online and at the Stony Brook Village museum counter. 

“Our thoughts and prayers are with Billy and his family, and we wish him a full and speedy recovery,” said LIMEHOF Chairman Ernie Canadeo in the same statement where the organization introduced its special discount offer. 

Those interested in redeeming said discount can use promo code “welovebilly” on LIMEHOF’s ticket page at limusichalloffame.org. Whether online or in-person, ticket purchasers will receive $5 off if they pounce by June 6th. 

Tickets will be valid through Aug. 31st. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to LIMEHOF’s Annual Student Scholarship Fund for graduating high school seniors pursuing music and performing arts at the collegiate level.

Don't Expect Bregman to Pay Off

This week, one of the bigger names in the free agency cycle signed with the Chicago Cubs, and fantasy managers everywhere sighed. Usually, anyone heading to Wrigley Field is viewed as a positive, but for Alex Bregman, more information has emerged suggesting this move could spell trouble for his fantasy outlook. Bregman is a right-handed pull hitter who previously played in two of the more favorable home parks for that profile in Houston and Boston. Both parks feature short left-field dimensions that reward pulled fly balls and help inflate power numbers.

Futures Bettors Will Be Smiling

The College Football Championship is set, and it pits two of the more unlikely teams against each other. Indiana may have the largest living alumni base in the country, with more than 800,000 graduates, but few expected the Hoosiers to reach this stage. They feature zero five-star recruits and have instead relied on depth, discipline, and consistency while dominating all season long.
