Reason #29484 why I love this band: they’re shitty liars

Even though it's just the filter there his hair would look really good dyed deep blue like that for real

good lord, Mike... smh

What @Green Day In Seattle said! ok, I know this has been posted in the IG thread but OMG look at those eyes and lips and quite a nice amount of stubble. Beginning to believe they are getting ready for something!

Oh my...he is such a stunner. Every little feature of his is impossibly beautiful. Those striking green eyes of his are just hypnotizing; it’s hard to look away once you’ve been drawn in. Everything around you just dissolves away if you allow yourself to get lost in those eyes. They’re undeniably alluring. If you manage to get past the eyes, they’re really only one of his many gorgeous features: Those plump lips arched into a subtle smile; the light stubble; those expressive eyebrows (that one’s a bit bizarre ). His neatly styled, thick hair is almost too beautiful to be real. And honestly (and I’ve said this before), I think those little lines on his forehead are really attractive. He’s aged so beautifully, and if he didn’t have those subtle cracks in his skin he wouldn’t be such a natural beauty. He is the epitome of “imperfect-perfection”. I could go on forever, but this is probably starting to sound obsessive. I’m going to stop here before I give myself a heart attack.

Damn look at Elvis Armstrong over here, that's some impressive hair

They'd have to pry me off with a crowbar if I got the chance to hold on to him.

Duke had a lot to work with so thank those Armstrong hair genes. And those eyes 😍 How can he be that beautiful just omg 🔥 So they’re getting all pretty for what I believe are the promo shoots, press kits, album art, whatever they need for Warners to promote this album. Recording is done, Billie’s back home and it’s on to the next phase...

Totally fangirling over Billie's thick Elvis hair, wow

It is! A work of art on the hairstylist's part. It's a good compromise between styled hair and his natural curls too.

If you watch that entire performance, the way that girl reacts when she’s invited on stage is so adorable...she just grabs onto Billie and refuses to let go! Can’t blame her; he’s the most huggable little bean on the planet.

Why do you think he saved this thing? Planning ahead.

The eyes. I'd love to see him try purple eyeliner once. Can you imagine how green his eyes would look then?

I wonder if he’s saying goodbye to the punky spikes for the next GD phase?

I literally just woke up and... did I die, cuz holy shit those eyes, the look, holy hot damn! I’m quite jealous of his thick hair. Duke is a master. Also that last hashtag “to be continued”🤔🤔🤔

Literally right from when they first started saying it was stolen they had no poker face about it. The official line from them was never just that they had to start again because it was stolen, it was that the master tapes or whatever got stolen and that made them re-evaluate and realise it wasn't good enough so it would be better to do something more ambitious instead as well as sort their relationship with each other out. They were open about the other stuff from the beginning. There's no way the songs wouldn't have been recorded or documented in other ways, they would've been able to recreate the album if they'd wanted. My assumption is the stolen part just made it a better story than we realised the album sucked

Holy fuck! Those eyes! He absolutely needs to shave, though.

Following the discussion about fans and Billie hugging (which happened elsewhere ), it made me think that I'm fond of these moments where Billie gives fans this opportunity to have this close contact with him (whether he's drunk, sober or whatever, once he began to do it many years ago, he never stopped doing it, and he'll keep doing it ). I love seeing pics of these moments and the happiness on the fans' face. It must be one big rush of happiness all at once to be able to hug him. At the moment I'm really into that pic: and the look on that girl's face makes me smile in turn. Of course there's envy to be in her place, but above all I feel happy for her. That happiness is so relatable it's contagious .

@Vintage Disciple It's black, but the photo has a blue-ish filter. Probably why his green eyes are so intensified as well.

Went to comment on how totally gorgeous Billie looks but headed off to fan girl thread instead where we can let rip! Have to say though, his hair is really something. Wonder how long that took?

It looks so thick! Quite the contrast with Mike

The band said they’d had the master tapes stolen but there have been theories that it wasn’t, that they just decided it wasn’t good enough and started over, or someone just claimed it was stolen because they knew the band could do better, or they just lost them but decided to say they were stolen... it never surfaced online so you gotta wonder what it was stolen for, if it was stolen. 🤷🏻‍♀️

ME THOUGH also these pics are adorable

I haven't fangirled here in a while, but just dropping in to say that that pic Duke posted is 😍😍😍😍😍😍 I just can't get over how stunning our boy's gorgeous green eyes are. So mesmerisingly beautiful. And his hair is fabulous. It looks so soft. I'd give anything to run my hands through it. And the lovely grey strands peeking through at the sides tho. And the stubble is perfect. What an exquisite being.

I took a photo of the picture with my phone, here's the result. I really like it, I put it as my background phone pic

I feel the same way. I’ve had such a rough week and seeing Billie’s pretty face helped me shift my focus away from everything I’ve been stressing over. He’s my cure-all.

Mike needs to stop 😬

The past few days for me have been crap , so it's really cheared me up seeing that picture . I'm loving Billies hair and stubble... and yes, I think something might happen soon

Not convinced it’s a filter as most things in the pic look normal, think it’s just how the light is hitting the very dense black. Whatever, he looks great.

I don't know exactly where but I just remember them never just saying "the tapes were stolen", they always then went into how it made them re-evaluate the album and the band in general and decide to go for it and make a really ambitious album. "Not maximum Green Day" was one phrase they used that I've always remembered. Idk just whenever I watched/read an interview about it the stolen part always seemed kind of nudge nudge wink wink and realising they weren't happy with the album anyway seemed to be the important part.

It's definitely dyed darker almost blue/black. He seems to be channeling his inner Elvis from Jailhouse Rock era

What sounds better to the public “the songs weren’t that good so we scrapped it” “the album was stolen and we just going to start anew”

Is it too early for this

My own theory is they were really lying to Reprise. Warners owned the music and if they wanted to they could have insisted on releasing what they thought was a crappy record just to recoup some money. The only way to prevent that was to make the tapes disappear.

Yeah like, they were saying the small fire was a "sign" and stuff too. They never really hid the real reasons for scrapping C&V and making AI instead but they wanted to make it a good story too

Don't buy meat.

Green Day’s Woodstock LP was the third biggest seller that’s awesome. I wonder how many copies it sold. And I can’t keep up with Mike’s properties. Where do they even live now, NorCal or SoCal?

Those are two of my most favourite pics of them all 😍😍😍😍😍😍

I know I was the one who posted last, and I never like to post twice in a row, but I just need to share these. They're too cute! GD hugs are the best! So pure and genuine. Their quality and depth of their friendship and their love for each other is very special.

The eyes/lips/hair combo is just killer. How lucky is Adrienne.

Fucking hell, I'm offline for two days and I come back to find a bunch of creepy Mikes.

I don't even think they lied really, they never even spoke about it convincingly enough in interviews to make it sound like it was the whole reason for starting again (let alone enough to fool a record company/lawyers), it was always obviously more that they just realised they wanted to scrap it and start again. There's no way there wasn't enough documentation of the songs that they couldn't have recreated the album if they were legally obliged to, they even hinted at this too. Maybe something really did get stolen or lost. Either way they never claimed it was much more than a catalyst that made them realise they could do better, at worst they just exaggerated the "stolen" aspect of it to make the story more interesting.

I hope Mike never goes bald😅

Someone described it as a three headed circus and he commented that he thought that was the best description of GD ever. 😂 (Now there’s an album title I thought)

So you think if he was sober he would still act like a spoiled brat pissed that he had to follow a contract he willingly signed to do a strictly 45 mins set? 🤔 that’s even worse than being drunk...

Not to be a drag but I’d rather a DVD release of a show that we’ve never seen not one that’s been on YouTube for ages.

Billie spam for my 2,000th post:
