Offbeat: Piano man's doppelganger

Scott Rosenfelt is an L.A.-based independent filmmaker who happens to looks a lot like Billy Joel - and that can create some problems when he's traveling back east on business.

I’ve tried disguises, like wearing a baseball cap or sunglasses. That only worsens the problem, because people expect a famous singer to be traveling incognito. Getting through the airport isn’t the most difficult part. It’s the pressure of being stuck on a plane with other passengers who think I’m You-Know-Who Flight attendants look puzzled when I walk back to the economy-class cabin, but there’s no time to explain that I’m not the Piano Man, I make independent films. Seatmates will spontaneously begin talking about music, or more often, their favorite Billy Joel album.
