I really miss him. I've been thinking recently about his livestreams and his "Billie Joe's Campfire Stories" and all the fun stuff he posted. I hope he comes back. Has it been a whole year yet? It sure feels like it. His posts brought me so much joy, even if they were infrequent or dumb. I'm having such a rough time right now and just seeing anything from him would be like a light in the darkness. I remember sometimes my whole day being brightened by his posts. I'm sure I must not be alone in that.

Okay, you guys have convinced me. I'll see if I can get this "Billie Joe" person to be in my adaptation of American Idiot. But he's only had a few acting roles, right? I'm not sure I can direct such an armature in one of my productions, but I'll give him a shot. If he's as good as you all say he is, it just might work.

As someone who saw Billie perform it in person, I can attest to the fact that he was outstanding in that role. He embodied the character so well and absolutely dominated the stage for every scene he was in, outshining everyone else there. Not very surprising seeing as St. Jimmy is a part of him. I would loooove to see a full, professionally recorded performance with Billie. I think that's what we all want. It would be so amazing to relive that.

We're fans of Billie so we'd enjoy watching his performance in full. Especially as it seems like probably his best acting performance, and as a stage musical (based on an album and character he created no less) it's unique for him. What's wrong with wanting to see it?

I miss the posts too. He’ll come back when he feels like it. I hope it’s something as great as the Longshot. Figuring that out was a lot of fun. The interactions were amazing. Small private Instagram, small shows, all good. I miss the Billie Joe Instagram and the Longshot Instagram too. Definitely don’t want it forced. I want it to be fun and kind of magical for friends and fans when he posts his funny stuff or cool projects. Can’t really leak secret shows or anything but who knows what will happen. It’ll all happen when it happens but jeez a lot of us are isolated and/or going through a lot because of the pandemic. The posts were a highlight to a shitty day sometimes (always actually no matter how dumb maybe the sillier the better). The posts (especially during the pandemic) were a bright spot for sure. He has a habit of just popping back up with something randomly who knows… let’s hope for the best.

I mean, we still have more interaction with them than in the two plus decades prior to 2011 or so. Used to get literally nothing for months and months on end even between the hugely popular American Idiot and its follow up. Didn't mean they weren't still around then and it doesn't now either. Also Billie, Mike and Tre mostly don't even use their individual instagrams for band stuff, they use it for personal things. When it comes to that you're either into doing it or you're not. If he doesn't feel like being on it it's better that he isn't. The alternative would be forcing it/only doing it to fulfill promotional obligations and that would suck anyway.

I loved the second episode of SortaLive, Greg is my fav

Look at this beautiful face!

Seasoned reviewers of Broadway musicals gave him rave reviews and you, or at least I and many others, felt we got a hint of how well he came over in Broadway Idiot, so yes, I do believe he is a great performer, he was very good on Broadway and I want to see a properly recorded performance with him in it. Most of the video footage on YouTube is fairly poor quality.

Me too! Surely Billie will be all prettied up and in rock star mode too, so we'll get plenty of fangirl material. I'm sooooo looking forward to seeing our beautiful boy! I've missed him so fucking much!😭 Btw, it's June so here's this from the GD Italy Instagram:

Can’t wait to see them playing live again, hope they are ready and looking forward to getting back on the road!

Does anyone know when was this photo taken?

It looks like he is completely off IG at the moment

To imagine we might never get another video like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFVgprxFAwU

I'm living for the Snoo songs. Now I want this album even more. I just might like this new album more than the first one. (And that's saying something). Tre who? If you're referring to The Snoo, then you should know that they're not the same person. And who's Billie and Mike?
