5 years ago today Rock N Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony and performance

A few pics for the 5th anniversary of their Rock N Roll Hall of Fame Induction

Jason White & Kevin are making appearances on 1234 Go!s Instagram live tomorrow night (Saturday April 18).

That’s so adorable

What an event that was for them, and to be inducted along with Joan Jett and Ringo was just icing on the cake.

I wish that I knew them at that time. I would be so happy and excited while watching them on the red carpet. Being proud of your favorite band is a really great feeling. Remembering that that they are the youngest inductees and seeing other artists show their love and respect to them still make me feel happy

As for zooms I love these ones

This is just really cute for some reason. Reminds me of a little kid drinking apple juice or something. It's probably beer, though, which just makes it funnier.

Just heard a rather low quality version of the GD playing Why does it always rain on me by Travis on reddit and it sounded so good! It’d be so great to have a good quality version of that cover!

Billie looked so nervous at the ceremony that was really sweet

I was thinking the same last night. It would be really awesome a Green Day cover of that song (Or just Billie in this case) in Studio quality.

More from Mike:

He has great legs 😍😍😍😍

All it took was a worldwide pandemic for Green Day to suddenly become an engaged and active band again. Billie is promoting his covers more than anything they've released since 2012.

Butch Walker: "I’m getting ready to start another Green Day record. I’m working in isolation, which is cathartic, anyway". https://www.ajc.com/blog/music/butch-walker-producing-new-records-watching-the-office-during-coronavirus-time/91uQeEBk7WEVHNykpuefZP/

When your boss starts texting you things that Billie has been up to lately.

No, I know what you mean and I'm glad you've said it because I've been feeling this way too. It's not exactly the eras I didn't experience that I think about, but I often find myself longing for the past eras I did experience and then I go down a rabbit hole of nostalgia where I end up all emotional. It still feels like 21st Century Breakdown was a few years ago. Even the trilogy was nearly eight years ago and I still think of that as a recent era. It's weird to realise it's not. Things were very different even then though and it's not that things are worse now, but yeah, they're just... different. It's hard to explain. Anyway, I don't think it's a mood killer. It's an interesting topic.

Billie looks like a kid in his big bowtie

Wow, Billie wear the same hoodie that I've got

Oh wow! So I'm not that weird after all. I'm going to make a recipe of crunchy red dead-nettle (Lamium purpureum) tops tomorrow and see how that goes.

Best Rock Albums of 2020 (So Far) Green Day, 'Father of All ...' This could be a polarizing record in the band’s catalog, especially given the more pop-infused feel permeating the early part of the album. Fans were introduced to the jittery energy bomb “Father of All” title track last fall, along with the clap-happy “Fire, Ready, Aim” and the Joan Jett-nicking “Oh Yeah.” But count us in on the band evolving upon a sound that has served them well, but may have been growing a little old. The album should be judged by more than the early singles, with the catchy “Meet Me on the Roof,” the brief but solid “Sugar Youth,” the ‘60s-ish rave up “Stab You in the Heart” and the grittier rocker “Take the Money and Crawl” leaving plenty well worth exploring. —CC https://loudwire.com/2020-best-rock-albums-so-far

That’s the Rev’s alligator on a stick that he holds when he sings the Alligator song

Just wanna leave these three pics here. So, I loved this pic so much when I first saw but it wasn’t really good quality. So, i guess they used that remini app in that one to retouch old pics like that. I tried it before but didn’t really work for me. I think it does usually good job in other photos I saw though. So yeah his face actually look so cute with that little lipstick kiss mark on his cheek I’ve been trying to find a pic that I’m sure I saved before and it was so pretty. His hair was like that one i guess, it could be from Foxboro Hot Tubs show but he was wearing a hat and was really sweet, this one sweet too, not sure what’s the thing he’s holding though And this one another very close pic from stage but when he was sitting on his kness. I love how close is this and his legs look pretty honestly

No, I think Pukey the Uni is now the symbol for Green Day. Hmmmm. I'm getting ideas.

I think it was over before it began. I wonder if the next album will have a new cartoon mascot. A camel 🐪 or a sloth 🦥 maybe?

So Mike is making weird food.

Oh god that what they’re parodying in the Simpsons’ Movie, I’m having an epiphany

That’s reminded me of this lol

He's so needy, that BJA. SO. NEEDY.

Billie’s like “oh no apocalypse is coming gotta hurry up with the ‘music coming soon’”

Though I did see on the GD post I think, someone commented that he should put them all on an album with profits going to WHO, great idea.

Note - it says releasing “singles” so I assume we are getting all of them.

Poor guys. I bet they were looking forward to more on stage shenanigans on the HM tour 😢

😱😱😱 This is big news!!!! 💚💚💚 Is this big enough that we need to start a next album anticipation thread? No offense to FOAM at all but they actually are working on another album.

Two years ago today, I got to be witness to the first of many adorable B/K Longshot moments. Here's to many more. ❤️

When this is you lining up for Green Day

From Joey

Not to bring things down, but reading "Nobody Likes You" is making me feel this weird sort of melancholy ache I can't quite describe that makes me want to cry. Reading about all of GD's past and seeing all those pictures and stuff just really amplifies the reality of the past. Those times are over. They are never going to happen again. The GD boys will never be that young again. I never got to experience those eras and I never will know what that was like. I do love reading the book and am really enjoying it, but there's still this feeling that hangs onto me every time I do. I just wanted to express that here because if anyone else would understand what I mean, it would be all of you and it also feels better to not just be sitting alone with it myself. I don't know. Sorry if this was a mood killer. I really needed to get it out. I do know that Green Day is still as amazing as ever and the boys are still the wonderful, beautiful people they've always been and nothing will change that. But there's still that longing feeling for what was that I can't shake. Even 21CB was over 10 years ago and that's when I first fell in love with Green Day.

Baby Billie playing Baby Blue!

Here is the image & article text 😊 —- The band first led in June 1994. Green Day rewrites the record for the longest span of No. 1s in the three-decade history of Billboard's Alternative Songs airplay chart, as "Oh Yeah!" rises 2-1 on the April 18-dated tally. The song, Green Day's 12th No. 1, expands the trio's run of leaders to 25 years, 10 months and one week, dating to its first week on top with the prophetically titled "Longview," its first entry on the chart, in June 1994. Green Day bests Red Hot Chili Peppers, whose span of Alternative Songs No. 1s covers 24 years, nine months and two weeks, from October 1991 through August 2016. Beck ranks third, as he's stretched his leaders over 23 years, 11 months and two weeks, from February 1994 through January 2018.

Green Day Breaks Record For Longest Span of Alternative Songs No. 1s With 'Oh Yeah!' https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/rock/9358085/green-day-breaks-alternative-songs-no-1s-record Congrats boys!

I wonder what Billie will post since all these album anniversaries seems to freak him out 😄 It is the album that started it all and a pretty amazing one (and even better with the EPs added on to it) Happy Anniversary 39/Smooth!

I wondered about starting a new thread but don’t suppose much will be made of this, but Mike remembered!
