Thatsername Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 In the last few weeks, when I'm browsing through comments of articles/photos about Green Day concerts on German Facebook or Twitter, I see many people writing "Haha, Billie looks more and more like Bastian Pastewka." Pastewka is a German comedian (a very good one and also a very nice guy IMO), but I really don't know if I see a resemblance here. Thoughts? P.S.: Sorry, wanted to post this in the random Green Day thoughts and got in the wrong thread, you can move it if you like 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pacejunkie punk Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 John Kiffmeyer and his sister are selling their parents’ house in Richmond, CA.

Billie has said before that John introduced them to Tre and was the one that suggested he fill in while he was at college. He just didn’t expect it to be permanent. It’s possible John’s playing up the Green Day connection to boost interest in the sale. Maybe they rehearsed there a few times in 1989-90 before their first tour like how Sweet Children used Billie’s mom’s house before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tonight I advised my kids who will both be looking for jobs in the next 1-3 years to move to Canada and I’ll follow them. They’re researching residency permits. I’m fucking serious.

I've always kind of took comfort in the fact that Green Day aren't all that far away from me and it will feel like a hole if they leave. I know that probably sounds ridiculous, but that's just the way I feel. I don't know how to describe it very well. The whole citizenship thing makes me feel weird too. He wouldn't be a fellow voter anymore. He wouldn't be able to use his "voice" to stand up for issues he believes in and against those he doesn't. Things can change, but it will require a lot of fighting. The more people to fight for what's right the better. Idk, sorry for rambling. It just fills me with a sense of dread when he says things like that even though I know it's not a big deal, even if he were serious. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is, I don’t think this is about the US as much as he makes it out to be. He’ll be spending a lot of time in the UK because he’s going to have grandchildren there and he’ll want to see them. That’s a perfectly wholesome and understandable reason to move. Also as a marketing asshole at heart, I have to appreciate how this got him trending on twitter after he already was trending because of the tiktok. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashback Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Why is the citizenship such a big thing to people in the US? In the comment sections, people take his words so personal, like Billie insulted everyone‘s families 😅 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cav9mm Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 God bless BJ. But the UK is possibly even worse at the moment, they are trying to deport immigrants to Rwanda FFS and are trying to breach international law in regards to the Northern Ireland Protocol.

Popular Post jengd Posted June 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 27, 2022 I am really surprised by how much coverage his comments are getting and how seriously people are taking it! You would think him saying he loves Italy while performing there will upset some US citizens, soooo sensitive! Don’t think it’s a slow news week anywhere!? 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
