Madison Square Garden has found a new Big Shot, at least for one night.
Legendary Long Island musician and honorary pope to many Billy Joel has been bumped from his Friday, Sept. 25 show to make room for Pope Francis, who will be holding an event at the Garden during his visit to the United States.
The Innocent Man's show has been pushed to Saturday, Sept. 26, and all tickets for the rescheduled show will be honored that day, according to Joel's official website.
His Holiness — Francis, not Joel — will visit Cuba before arriving in the United States, with planned stops in Philadelphia, Washington D.C and New York City.
Joel has set a record with performances at The Garden since starting a monthly residency there in January 2014.
