Welcome @Scumbag On A Mission! and happy birthday @maryjanewhatsername! I didn't dare put on here this drawing of Billie I made but for this special occasion (you turning 20!) I will. Have a great one! yes its the raccoon look! (I also colored it but I like this partly uncolored version too)

Just wait until Jakob finds success. They'll only have one week per month to fill with someone else!

My little visit for the week here. So I will post this here: Billie smiling while playing drum. I love his smile and I love the fact that he is good at playing a lot of different instruments.

Probably a Freudian slip caused by watching a KFAD performance and seeing Billie's bear ass.

12 TIMES BANDS HAD SONGS ON MOVIE SOUNDTRACKS GREEN DAY - 'ORDINARY WORLD' Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong made his acting debut in the film Ordinary World. Now, bare in mind that the film was initially called 'Geezer', but was renamed after the Green Day title track. 'Ordinary World' also appeared on their album 'Revolution Radio' the year after it was originally released on the film soundtrack. https://www.rocksound.tv/features/read/x-times-bands-wrote-songs-for-movie-soundtracks The Ten Best Covers Of All Time GREEN DAY – Shout (Originally performed by the Isley Brothers) If you’ve ever been lucky enough to catch Green Day live, you’ll know they play a little song called King For A Day, which involves a pretty theatrical performance of the Isley Brothers classic song, Shout. This cover has become such a hit that it’s a staple of almost any Green Day show, and is a moment to remember for all fans. https://www.hysteriamag.com/hyst-list-ten-best-covers-time/

Thank you! After looking over some of the conversations that have taken place on this thread, I can tell I’ve come to the right place.

ITS MY BIRTHDAY SO LETS FANGIRL IT UPPPPP Here's a random ass assortment of cute as fuck pictures of our lil Billo I LOVE YOU BILLIE happy birthday to meee enjoy the gif spam Hi! This is the fangirls thread so welcome ❤️ if you want to obsess over the boys, here's the thread for you!!!! @Hermione knows the rules and regulations to threads better than I do, but welcome!!!!!!

I was wearing my Longshot shirt last sunday at work. One of my coworkers asked me why I wearing a shirt with a picture of a car under the snow.

Reminder from ALT1053 Radio that #GreenDayDay is one week from today! I can't access the article from the UK so am unable to see what it says. Kerrang have also posted about a piano cover of Basket Case by YouTuber Davide Locatelli. Full article and if you'd like to listen here: https://www.kerrang.com/the-news/heres-an-amazing-piano-cover-of-green-days-basket-case/ This is what they say: Earlier this month, Green Day’s legendary third record Dookie celebrated its 25th birthday. We paid tribute to it in our own way (with this magazine, and a pretty heated argument about whether or not it’s their greatest album), and fans around the world have done the same. Over the weekend, YouTuber Davide Locatelli posted a neat piano rendition of Dookie’s third single, the iconic Basket Case, giving the track a super-jaunty new feel. You could almost imagine a similar version appearing on the band’s epic 21st Century Breakdown album à la ¡Viva la Gloria! or something. Check it out below! Brilliant stuff. Now, because we definitely haven’t seen Basket Case’s legendary video enough, let’s give that another watch… Green Day themselves have been reflecting on their world-class third album, too. And not only have Billie Joe Armstrong, Tré Cool and Mike Dirnt happily looked back on a record that changed their collective lives, but their frontman has even hinted that a proper birthday celebration of all things Dookie could well end up happening at some point in 2019… “We wanted to think of something special to do but we couldn’t quite come up with anything.. Maybe play the record in its entirety at the pyramids in Egypt,” Billie Joe posted on Instagram. “Or jam it Machu Picchu ? Exclusive in Viggiano.? Never quite came to fruition.. But never despair. 2019 still has time.. Dookie makes me think about Berkeley a lot. Our house on Ashby and Ellsworth a block from telegraph avenue. Living in a basement with a band called East Bay Weed Company. Our friend Ben Mattick… socialist college girls living up stairs. Coming up with she and coming clean. Riding bikes and bong hits. Turning 21. Pete’s Wicked Ale. Hysterical laughter. Maniacal laughter. Butterball turkey. “The Ashby house” was our little punk house. I would write songs all night and wake up at 2:00 pm. Have a bagel and a coffee on the front steps.. debilitating panic attacks.. my guitar, my Marshall, my 4 track tape recorder. “Weird A &R dudes sniffing around. “Eventually Meeting producer Rob Cavallo.. we learned so much from him. Playing Beatles songs over and over… Richie Bucher’s amazing ep cover he did for a band called Raúl inspired us to ask him to do the cover art for Dookie. “Mike’s G3 bass. Tre’s Noble coolly snare… driving in my old Ford Fairlane hearing Longview on the radio for the first time. Blair Hess. our first show in Italy at a place called in bloom. “having a lot of uncertainty about our future but not giving a shit. Wanting and dreading to be a rock star.. if that’s even possible.. Local punk scene backlash… Fist fights at Gilman street… stress stress stress!! You have to have gratitude for the bad and the ugly too.. Well… that’s the random thoughts I have for now… I hope people keep listening.. cause we’ll keep playing… love BJ”

@The Bellie That drawing is fantastic! And wonderfully accurate. You nailed his physique. I’d also like to quickly express that I didn’t realize that an adoration of Billie’s bellie was so common among Green Day fans, but seeing how many times it’s been mentioned on this thread...I’m so glad it’s not just me who’s finds his little bellie attractive. I’m relieved. Thank you for that, everyone.

@maryjanewhatsername Happy Birthday! Have a Billie hug.

Hi everyone! I just created this account today so I really haven’t familiarized myself with how this online community operates. Are these chats exclusive or are they opened to just about anyone? As a fangirl who has practically nobody to obsess over Green Day with, this topic looks like a whole lot of fun.

How happy must Kerrang be that they can put Green Day's kid's band on the cover as well as Green Day every other week now

@Scumbag On A Mission - welcome! We are all happy to worship Billie and you will find chat about all (well nearly) of his anatomy, and yes we love his little bellie so join the fun. @maryjanewhatsername happy birthday, so close to Billie’s too !

I love how I came to this page just if @LaughingClock clock would have gone out of his mystery yet but instead it's just the beginning of the announced spam thread. Oh well, still cool In fall I'm turning 24, probably great

Wtf is fall.

Happy birthday @maryjanewhatsername!

Oh yes everyone's welcome to post in all topics. The forum guidelines give a general overview of the rules of the site but otherwise have fun! @maryjanewhatsername Happy birthday! Have a great one

I love how is face looks chubbier when he smiles. I just wanna pinch his cheeks, he's so CUTE.

Don’t forget the untold stories 😂

Adrienne posted this on Instagram with the Green Day cover as well - see Billie's comment (again courtesy of @GDLoT:

80 reposted Joey's post and Proud Dad Billie commented this:

I'm into organics.

I can't get past "bare in mind". Great journalism

Me too!

So true, and damn, I’ll still be buying it each time - just in case 😂😂

You're too sweet thank you so much this looks amazing!! You're really talented!!!

Great username by the way. Love that song.

Well, I fear nothing. Not even the fallen pants.

I heard from a reliable source that Billie's pants sometimes fall.

Thank you! I really needed this; everyone I know in my personal life is getting sick of listening to my Green Day jibber jabber, so it’ll be nice to fuss over the guys with people who are just as infatuated with them as I am!

Bet they’re already working on an article about familiy legacies in music with lots of “new material” in it 😂😂😂

Just proves he really is ageless.

I've never seen this pic before:

^^^ And they were both at or around 23. Pretty freaky.

This is heartwarming. SWMRS 1st cover 23 years after GD's (2nd pic in Joey's post).

"Give me rage, like there's seagulls in the crowd"

In my sophomore year of college, I wrote a research paper about Green Day's influence during the 2004 election. It was entitled "Green Day Rocks the Political World". 😂 No regrets at all!
