The 65-year-old piano man will set a record for the most performances by any artist at Madison Square Garden, which will be part of his residency at the New York venue, the New York Post reported.

The July 1 show will be the 19th performance as a part of the residency, which has included monthly concerts from the singer songwriter throughout 2014.
