The Nylon Curtain Tour was a 1982 concert tour by singer-songwriter Billy Joel. This tour was Joel's first tour following a divorce from his first wife and manager Elizabeth Weber and after a motorcycle accident that occurred earlier in the year.^[1]

The tour began on October 24, 1982, in Salt Lake City and ended on December 31, 1982, with a New Year's Eve at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

The December 29 show at Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale was released as the video special Live from Long Island. It was originally broadcast on HBO in 1983 before it became available on VHS.

This was the first tour following the departure of Richie Cannata on saxophone and keyboards. He was replaced with Mark Rivera (who still performs with Joel, as of 2024) and David LeBolt (who was dismissed after the Bridge Tour in 1987).
