Face to Face 2003 was a concert tour by Elton John and Billy Joel. The pair performed under the Face to Face concert series, which was constantly proving more popular amongst fans. The tour started on 21 February in Birmingham, Alabama and travelled throughout the United States for twenty four concert dates until 8 May in Rosemont, Illinois, where the tour came to a close after this concert had been rescheduled from March. Joel stated in 2012 that he would no longer tour with Elton because it restrains his setlists.
