Billy Joel-You can say that this shot would now a days be impossible to photograph.
While on tour we would take commercial air to get from one venue to another. At one airport while getting on the plane I popped my head into the cockpit and asked the pilot and co pilot if it would OK to get them out of their seats and place Billy Joel in their place. They were happy to do so.

Hi Richard! Opportunity is the name of the game, as you must already know, to get this kind of shots of stars like Billy Joel and to any other person. Also is important to be creative and be ready with the required equipment, our beloved camera.
If you can write me back it would be incredible I have some shot of rock music concerts that I will like to show you.
