cool story of fan meeting Ollie Armstrong (translated) antoniokun ‏@antoniokun "Shown is Ms. Ollie Armstrong and me, the mother of Billie Joe Armstrong leader of Green Day, she is an incredibly kind and simple person, I went to eat at the restaurant where she worked as a hostess until recently. One of the waitresses asked me if was looking for and told me that she was her friend and she was going to call home to see if she could come. 40 minutes after Ollie was there to share an hour of conversation and a breakfast that she paid without me noticing. Thank you! # Pinole # Berkeley # BayArea # California # USA # GreenDay # Ollie # billiejoe GraciasaDioa # Amazing # Theembers Vueltaalmundo PS: This goes without saying that this will be my lifelong social media photo, cards, templates, etc. until something better comes."

Well there was surprisingly little different from Broadway, which in my opinion is a good thing. As has been noted before, the flying in Extraordinary Girl has been nixed which is a shame because that part was really technically impressive. The stage and the venue were smaller, making it more intimate, but I think this took away from the "epic" feel that it was supposed to have, also saddened me. In Homecoming, instead of the Rock and Roll Boyfriend singing " and another ex-wife" Will sings "somebody give me a knife". I just didn't understand why they changed that, but it didn't detract nor add, but was just a bit jarring. The two times they say the word "fag" in the musical the singers exaggeratingly limpwristed. Fans know that the term is used in a tongue-in-cheek way but it felt... weird. I didn't like it. And then Andrew as St. Jimmy. Wow. This has always been my favorite role in the show so I payed close attention to it and he did not disappoint. For being an understudy, he rocked it. He didn't have the gleeful enthusiasm and playfulness that Billie had, but he played St. Jimmy as darker, more menacing. His singing was on perfectly and he looked like a 2010 era Billie with the big shock of dyed blonde hair (and he looks like him too). All in all it was great to see again. It wasn't as impressive from a technical or musical standpoint, but only slightly so (and this is coming from a super-critical eye). I loved to hear the music performed like that again and it's definitely rekindled my interest in the album.

Yes he did . He was talking about stripping naked on stage. Not long ago I wanted to post the video for some reason but I could no longer find it on youtube, doesn't seem to be on there now. And I've just looked in the downloads section and it isn't there either . It's the "1994 Arquivo Interview with Billie Joe", just a short interview. I'm gonna go and request it in the downloads section right now, maybe someone has it.

When I first heard Wild One, I thought it went: "She gave up on Jesus/for living on penis."

Just reminding everyone: "I've heard it all before Sell doughnuts at my door" You will hear those words for the rest of your life.

Even though I know better, I still always hear "I just want some action, so give me Mike Dirnt" in Nuclear Family.

In Platypus I thought for the longest time that Billie was saying cross-eyed Jew instead of cause I hate you. I just realized how stupid that was when I hate you is in the title of the song. http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxwcotZNgh1qfbxjlo1_500.gif

"I am the pullout in your magazine", as in centrefold.....seemed to make sense until I figured out the real (and much deeper) line. But to be fair, a lot of strange lyrics have come our way! Obviously from Baby Eyes

Once I was listening to Westbound Sign but only half concentrating and I ward something about underwear

When I first heard Angel Blue, I thought he sang: "Now I'm singing out the alphabet, adjectives are putting out my cigarette" instead of "as the tears..." A quick google on the matter suggests that I am far from alone in this misunderstanding!

Everytime when i listen to 'Christian's Inferno': What they sing: Seasons in ruin and this bitter pill is chased with blood. What I hear: Seasons in ruin and this bitter pill is Jason White. That makes no senese, brain!
