Jeff Schock, the director of the Billy Joel Archives and the rocker’s former tour manager and photographer, died unexpectedly at his home in Southold Wednesday. He was 64. “He was a generous spirit in our longtime musical family — ever the enthusiast, always optimistic,” Joel said in a statement. “He loved the roar of the crowd and he took such pride in our success. (Even when we lost sight of what a miracle it all was — and still is.)” Joel plans to dedicate his show at Madison Square Garden on Saturday to Schock. https://nwsdy.li/2ito8uR https://nwsdy.li/2ito8uR+ -- Peterk Dallas, Tx [log in to unmask] Save our in-boxes! http://emailcharter.org “If only there were a massive entity that I were forced to fund to tell me how I should live my life, since I’m so obviously incapable of deciding for myself.” M.
