Just for you @Montclare 😉 also, that smile of Billie’s 🥰

I'll give Lenny # 2 to this. Of course, we could just combine the two best things of the era.

Album: comes out Feb. 7 Green Day on Feb 8:

Fixed. 🙂

Let's celebrate his blondness and fluffiness! Yes, it's black here, but his floof is off the charts so I had to include it.

Also known on the family friendly radio as "hold him underwater till he suffocates and drowns" 🤣

I love it! I made a B/K calendar, and this is actually one of the pics for March! Along with other stills from the same video of Billie staring at Kevin's lips.

But was track 7 a ballad?

Mike has gone completely silent. I miss his weird stories.

Lenny >>>> everything else this era

Missing the boys so much . Got my fingers crossed that the Hella Mega tour happens, after a crappy 2019 I hoped seeing GD this year would make this year a happier one than last year.

Me too for all that skin and ink 😍

I’ve watched this at least three times lol cause it is so adorable to see they’re being weird and hanging together like bunch of teenagers. I wasn't into them at that time but it seemed like a really good era for them and also fans cause they seemed really genuine and even like friendly with the fans in some way especially through those live streams. Those two he went live from the backstage are my favorites too:

Even though it's so obvious that the lyrics to Stab are "pictures don't lie" I always get this image in my head of Shakira and I hear "hips dont lie" instead. Hips don't lie when you're front page news... And I don't even listen to Shakira lmao

I always hated the Rising part and only used it because for some reason (I can't remember) I couldn't just use RedWolf without adding something else to it.

How could I forget Kevin the boyfriend?! You’re right.

I miss them on social media. Even that's been lackluster and lame

Much appreciated. I'm still fangirling over my own photos!

I’m honestly sad that gdc is so dead these days... FOAM came out a month ago

Yeah and he didn’t have lyrics for Restless Heart Syndrome for the longest time until Butch Vig forced him to write them because he wanted the song on the album.

I think about American Idiot on Broadway all the time. I was getting work done this morning and I got distracted by reminiscing about this fucking thing again! It was and probably always will be one of my most amazing experiences. Every time I'm in New York I go and stand outside the theatre and remember crying when the show ended. I even have a recurring dream about it returning to Broadway for a week with Billie as St. Jimmy and being back there looking at the American Idiot sign (not Frozen... it's Green Day's theatre! ) again. I'm such a fucking saddo, help It was a liberating experience though. I was in this big city on the other side of the world and that mirrored the show I had the privilege of keep seeing. There was no lining up or related drama. It would've been easy to abuse the lack of security but no one tried. They just enjoyed the show. We met so many kind and normal fans who weren't after anything more than seeing a life-changing album come to life as a Broadway musical. I'm so happy I have the theatre tattooed on me I still love the soundtrack but I do wish there was a version with Billie as St. Jimmy.

Red Day!

What has Mike done to deserve waterboarding?

Oh novacaine I

That's never gonna happen lmao. If Green Day reverts to being an opener the Foo Fighters will also be an opening act just on a different day of the festival Rock has really lost it's balls Billie Joe was right he just wasn't right in trying to imply or state that Green Day is gonna save it.

calm down.

Singles are such a dated thing nowadays anyway. Anything they put on YouTube or streaming might as well be a single. I think "officially" it depends on what they send to radio stations.

I like the last photo. He looks dishelveled like he just got out of bed. I'm digging it.

Found this on reddit

I think it’s obvious that they all were just having fun so but it’s kinda an unnecessary caption to write imo. It could make people suspicious even though they can guess that it’s not likely and just joking around but yeah no need to take it that seriously

You are not crazy. The "AYE" EXISTS.

I volunteer as tribute!

Oh my god as soon as I started reading that my brain switched to Billie Joe's voice.

And so tiny next to that guy! 😍🥰

What a cutie!

His reply to a fan on this post

I know and that makes no sense at this point, so much time has passed since that album. And it's not supposed to be everyone's fave GD album, they have so much material and only good (great) material, that comparing every new album to AI is like omitting the quality of the rest. I'd personally put quite a few of their albums above or at least at the level of AI: RevRad, Tré, Uno, 21CB and Warning. In short, all the albums that came around and after AI are at least as good as AI to me. And whatever the personal preferences, Green Day have always been so good at reinventing themselves without losing their quality and sound identity. Back on topic, I've listened to Foam album today in the first time for like 10 days. And I had a blast, it's just so good I don't love it at the same level as my very fave GD albums; but I don't need to love it that much to get crazy listening to it. To me it's a bit like Dos, there are some songs that I absolutely adore and some that I just enjoy. But it's an album that ought to be heard as a whole, it makes it so much better.

Yes absolutely! I think one of the great things about those guys is that you never know what they're up to next, they're a bag full of surprises. Especially Graffitia totally has that epic, anthem-like, 21CB-esque vibe. I was dead serious about wanting a Graffitia-themed concept album.

That´s true. I was expecting they might go for a 21CB follow-up but FOAM is no disappointment. In the end it’s a fun album and that’s what matters.

I have a feeling this album has a better reception outside of the narrow circle of the fandom. Most reviews were from OK to positive.

When the licence plate on the bus says "AAF" and you automatically think of "Awesome as Fuck"

When you're watching the Game Grumps play through of Ocarina of Time and they get the Longshot from the Water Temple and you get really excited because of the name.

I was on holibops in Malta when my pre-ordered copy got delivered. I'm importing to my iTunes to play on my iPod right now since that's really the only way i'll manage to experience the album the good ol' fashioned way from start to finish and in order (i can't listen to it with shuffle off on my deezer cos i haven't got premium... Probably should get onto that at this stage but i've been holding out cos i'm just the poor grad in the office 😬 ). First full listen, here goes...

Yeah every time I talked about Green Day I usually get the "Oh they're still making music?" response and it's just baffling. Like is there some sort expiration date on artists? After a certain age you just assume they stop making music? Weird.

Still a pouty bitch

Can the HMT start please? I want new picture and I want to see him in real life again please!!!

Nice memories from 5 years ago in Quebec City
