Hope you fangirls had a fantastic holiday!

Asking the important questions: if Green Day existed in the Pokémon world, would the drunk bunny be a Scorbunny, Bunnelby or Buneary? I'm going with Bunnelby. Scorbunny is a possibility, but Buneary is too cutesy. Bunnelby looks like a Pokémon you might find unconscious on the pavement after it snuck into a pub.

Is this GD’s Taylor Swift era, naming an album after their birth year? 😏 They should go the Adele route and name it 50.

I like to think they proposed the Upside Downers again after the reel that I posted on Green Day Ita that Billie reposted. That reel featured the vinyl, some people after watching it asked us where to buy it and told them to ask to 1234 Go Records, and the day after boom, there's a post! I felt like an Influencer, GD give me my part, in cash please ahah kidding

I even forgot about this thread and I started it 😂. @pacejunkie punk beat me to it, could the Beach Boys cover be linked to it? Was Billie supposed to be sharing suggestions for new songs and/or arrangements with his band mates and posted on wrong account? Still hoping for a cd of this of course!

I never noticed before how many songs with numbers they did! I’ll bet one thing, we’ll never guess what they are up to!

In my opinion the Beach Boys thing is something separate from 1972. Like it's just Billie doing what he loves and showing it to us. Still I'd love to hear it ahah I just hope it's an EP/Album with some love inside. I mean something they'd be hyped too to release, since the previous album seemed without soul (?)

Kevin went swimming with sharks! I'm so jealous! I love sharks.

Some more Tre and Sara on Facetime with Frankito Tre and family swimming in the rain More memories from Kevin From Billie's Instagram story Kevin is in Hawaii and has done a shark dive He's also got a Green Day towel and news on this release ft Billie from 1234Go Records

Hope you did too! Happy belated birthday (taken from billierawrarmstrong on Tumblr)

Funny thing about it was the "clocking in at a mere 44 minutes"... wait a few years.

I'm wondering if this will still happen with Omicron becoming such a problem. I know plenty of people already who are double vaxxed and boosted who have still contracted COVID. Sure, if you're vaccinated you're not going to die from it or likely even get particularly sick, but it's still not a good thing to have. We still don't know everything this virus is capable of. I really do hope they go through with it because I'd love to see Billie play live again. I just hope they do it with the utmost caution. I guess we'll find out tomorrow or sometime on Thursday whether or not it's still a go.

This. Is. Perfection.

Goddammit I’m sick of shit getting canceled 🥺 I was so looking forward to this

Well, at least he’s healthy

N-no..

He’s been practicing that falsetto for a few years now, pretty cool to hear him doing what sounds like four part harmonies all on his own. I’d love to see how he recorded the parts

Maybe @jengd will finally get her surf show footage.

Absolute Radio in UK has been airing this about GD and U2 and The Saints Are Coming. Quite interesting, no input from either band. https://listen.absoluteradio.co.uk/18960790

I got my copies for Xmas! Listening to the vinyl now while working from home. I love it! They sound fantastic! And Billie's singing is sooo good!

Maybe the New Years Eve performance will be of this song.

the beach boys cover was likely just to acknowledge the anniversary of the death of dennis wilson (12/28). at least, i hope that's all it was for. i fuggin' loathe the beach boys.

I got the BBC Sessions CD!

Wow, this is just awesome! I've always thought Billie has such a wonderful classic voice. It really is so well suited to those sweet 60's harmonies. Phenomenal vocals! He's really showing off his talent and range in this one for sure!

Got CD and vinyl copies of BBC Sessions for Xmas

Few photos I don't remember seeing before (or have forgotten)

Have to say I really don't enjoy anything by Miley Cyrus and I don't like watching her either. For me I sincerely hope it's a case of coheadliners.

And 8th Ave Serenade.

The best pairing is Green Day / FOB / Weezer

Haven't been able to get back on the site since the 21st until today so here's some IG content from the days I wasn't able to post (have checked the last pages for what has and hasn't already been posted) Seems Mike/Britt now have two pet pigs Jason Freese with Mickey Billie reposted this from @bubukittyfk Jason Freese playing with apps again More from Mike (almost 20 years of Rudy's Can't Fail Cafe) From Tre

and 'kiss me deadly'...

Billie really has a knack for covering songs I hate and making them good. I love this! I wouldn't be mad with a No Fun Mondays Vol 2 at all!

If they Will do a cover álbum i wish surrender/ bastard of Young and dancing with myself, Green Day live classics never recorded

And 99 Revolutions

It would continue the tradition of GD number songs — 16, 80, 2000 LYA, Sweet 16, 21 Guns, 21st Century Breakdown…

Awww... Look what one of my former interns gave me for Xmas.

I have a feeling the covers are a Billie Joe solo thing and the 1972 project are separate and maybe he deleted it thinking it’s better to just keep the excitement going for the new Green Day project. Maybe. Not sure. Plus, he has the New Years Eve solo performance coming up very soon. That could be another reason not to dilute the fan base with covers until maybe a few months from now. This pandemic is going on and on and making people so sad. I hope No Fun Mondays make a comeback after the excitement of the Billie Joe New Years Eve performance and the new 1972 Green Day project. So many fun things to look forward in spite of another shitty end to a shitty year. Thank god for Green Day. No wonder they’re God’s favorite band.

I’m with everything Billie Joe’s Eyelids said. So many people on here use this word ‘accountability’ like they themselves have to be the ones holding him accountable. How arrogant, egocentric & straight up backward can some people really be ? He has been held accountable , by many of people and behind closed doors too. But the fact some people on here have such high opinions of themselves, that they think they can just throw vile comments around about something that in reality, they know very little, if anything, about, says more about them, than it does the guy in question. Like why does somebody have to be held accountable on YOUR terms, what makes YOU so perfect that YOU get a free pass to say horrible shit about somebody that YOU know nothing about? How about you take your high opinion of yourself and your oh so perfect moral compass & practise what you preach ? The worlds fucked enough as it is without having to constantly shine a light on somebodies past mistakes.. What seriously do you gain by doing that ? Is it because your life is so middle of the road and boring ? Learn to be fuckin nicer to people and let people learn and grow, people can’t do that when they’ve got somebody constantly shouting abuse about them, wether it be at them close up, or in secret behind a laptop screen. Wise the F up!

I got my CD that I ordered last Friday! It arrived on Christmas Eve and I'd already forgotten I'd ordered it so it was a nice surprise.

There's something so cute about this video at just before the two minute mark Billie closes his eyes and smiles to himself about something Maybe it's because he just told the crowd to sing along even if they didn't know the words!

Yeah, I reckon Horny would be a Galarian Rapidash! I can picture Billie as Scorbunny as well, for some reason

I got BBC sessions CD and a brilliant Displate picture, will try and stare when I get time. So happy!

Wide release of this RSD drop is finally coming in February. 1234Go! has ordering details here as well as hints of possible shows and surprises to come. (More music? Could this be what the Beach Boys cover was about?) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYFiqRLvWe5/?utm_medium=copy_link

409 in Your Coffeemaker

Just because she’s popular and not new does T make this a good pairing. Just because Miley made one rock album doesn’t make this a good pairing. Because she’s a Green Day fan doesn’t make this a good pairing. Lady Gaga is a Metallica fan but I wouldn’t want to see her coheadline with Metallica. Most coheadlining shows typically make sense like GNR/ Metallica, Aerosmith/Kiss, Kiss/ Def Leppard, Def Leppard/ Journey, Blink 182/ Green Day, Third Eye Blind/ Jimmy Eat World, Jayz/ Beyoncé, Elton John/ Billie Joel, STP/The Cult/Bush, NKOTB/ Backstreet Boys, Rob Zombie/Marylin Manson. Justin Timberlake/Jayz, Daughtry/ Goo Goo Dolls etc. This pairing is nothing more than crush trying to use Green Day to help rebrand Miley as a rock act while making an ass load of cash doing it.

I've been analyzing the data and these are the results. Green Day sing most about time, with it being mentioned 224 times across their catalogue. Here's some others that I have come across. 1. Time: 224 2. Know: 211 3. Go: 208 4. Away: 175 5. Love: 156 6. Heart: 118 7. Say: 118 8. Mind: 114 9. Top: 111 10. Red: 99 If you can think of more with 100 or more mentions, let me know. While none of these words are particularly unique, I did skip stupid ones like "the", "to", "a" etc. If we WERE to count the more generic words however..... I’m, like, well, say, want, one and no are the most prevalent.

Currently ranked- Album Sales- 35 Current Album Sales- 23 Top Rock Albums- 33 Alternative Albums- 18 Tastemakers- 13 Also hit 79 on the German Album list, 27 on the Hungarian album list, 27 on the Scottish album list, and 44 on the UK album list.

This is a really cool old photo of Billie. It's very like him to bring a giant baseball bat to a show for probably no reason other than he felt like it.
