Since we might not be getting new pics for awhile, we'll just have to make do with some classics.

What is it with Mike and doing strange things with old hair?

It sounded like he was infatuated with everybody

Mike never disappoints

I know a lot of people don't like the 1000 hours EP (even Billie said it was too sappy), but I'll always have a soft spot for those early love songs. There's something so endearing about a teenage Billie being totally infatuated with somebody.

If he had a side project he wouldn’t have time to empty his closet 😂 At least he’s using the spare time wisely.

Must be from when Aaron Cometbus apparently gave Mike a makeover (cut off his hair and sleeves) that instantly made him attractive to girls and is a look he's kept until this day

Mike pls I suggest donating it to the rhof museum or preferably hard rock café so people can enjoy the pleasure of watching it while they eat

And the list of fantastic stage to screen adaptions is endless as well. Saying dont do it because it may fail is a pretty defeatist attitude. Especially when the starting material is fantastic

But why? The play is amazing, I've seen it twice and it is the most energetic, fun show I have ever seen. Why would you think the movie would be bad?

Teenage boys be like that

Okay that really confused me 🙂

He's a pretty boy 😘

The song 1000 Hours is the only one that's just too sappy for me . But I love the other 3 and otherwise I agree, the infatuation/sappiness/totally wearing his heart on his sleeve is very sweet.

I think Back in the USA is my favorite song released since American Idiot. I don't know exactly why but I love it.

When you're setting up your dehumidifier because the humidity is 1,000,000% and all you can think of is this.

The Dearly Beloved part of JOS blows me away every time I hear it. I mean, the entire song is pretty on point, but I love that section of it so fucking much. The lyrics and Billie's voice and the way he sings it. Just wow.

I totally agree Billie would be great in the role of St Jimmy in a film.....but even if he wouldn't let's be real I'd still want him to play it because seeing Billie acting good or bad is glorious . I'd be 100x more interested in seeing an AI film if he was in it.

It's Southwest Airlines. It is all cattle class. Lol My daughter was on that flight. She sat a few rows back.

St. Jimmy has always been an ageless, timeless metaphor for me, very similar to Mephisto, so it's not important how old the actor is. I agree with @G-L-O-R-I-A, no one could do it better than Billie. He was blowing all the other characters off stage with his energy at his Broadway performance. Do it with Billie or don't do it at all.

I think if (and that's a big if considering all the times Billie has announced something and it's never happened *cough*Forever now video*cough*) the AI movie does happen, I still want Billie to play St. Jimmy. I never saw the character as a particular age, so I don't think that really matters. And in the musical, I think Billie pulled off the character of St. Jimmy better than anyone else, even though he's not the best of actors. That's because St. Jimmy is essentially a part of Billie - it's a character he made up based on certain aspects of himself. Billie knows how to be St. Jimmy better than anyone because he already is. And I think it'd be incredibly stupid not to cast the real life St. Jimmy in the role when he's right there, willing and able. Also, this discussion is making me remember how proud Billie really is of the AI album. The fact that he wants to be so involved in first the musical and now the movie really says a lot. And then all the clips in Broadway Idiot of him getting emotional when it was so well-recieved. Man, he clearly put everything he had into that record and it really payed off. I'm so proud of him.

Also St Jimmy was never even young in the AI musical when it was on Broadway. The regular actor and Billie were in their late thirties, and Melissa Etheridge who played the part for a few shows was in her fifties. In the musical at least it's a separate character that doesn't necessarily have to be young, there to lead JOS/Johnny astray with drugs etc. I agree it probably won't happen anyway though haha.

Or he may have thought yes, I can still do it, it’ll be fine and then once he started thought, oh god, I can’t go on with it knowing he’s in the audience, who knows. Think he’s managed to keep everyone happy though the crowd obviously loved what they got. 😂 it must be quite an interesting relationship at times that Billie has with his in-laws. I didn’t know 80’s dad was a pastor but I knew her mum does something along those lines and publishes theological papers (if that’s the correct term).

At school I had to write as many onomatopoeia words as I could, and when I was done the teacher told me that 'dirnt' is not a real word

Not necessarily. He may not have felt that it was such a big deal that he needed to change his own behaviour/change the way he does the show, but may have still wanted to cut it short for some of the reasons I mentioned above or whatever. And I do think he was making a joke of it, but the joke was clearly based on something.

^^^ I see the rib bulge in the one where he's wearing the red shirt.

😂😂😂 And yet this is why I love them. They’re goofballs. If they took their sexiness seriously they’d be douchbags.

But how will we get glimpses of "be silently drawn" now...

When you literally won't talk to anyone unless they speak to you in GD lyrics.

The sass in Mike's post tho. I love how Billie reposted a fan's edit for Mike's birthday. Also, it was nice that they livestreamed so much of the show on both the Longshot account and his billiejoearmstrong.

When "Still Breathing" is your ringtone and you don't answer the phone when someone is calling because you want to listen to the song

@Eric If you post here you can expect people to reply to you to comment on/agree with/disagree with what you post. If you're going to be personally offended because someone posts their own opinion in response to yours then don't post it. I don't want to keep seeing you making things personal for no reason. Not everyone likes the same things as you and not everyone dislikes the same things as you, I don't know how that's such a hard concept to grasp.

Insomniac, Dookie and Kerplunk are what I consider "pure Green Day". They just define the band perfectly.

I don't think he has though.

Is it bad that it bothers me that it's the wrong shade of blue? ^^^^
