Yeah it's a good one! Also just noticed they followed up that answer with "Got it. So, BJ..." haha :P

Yeah I noticed that and it made me laugh. Nice how they totally ignored what he just said. LOL

I would never call him BJ. Not his face anyway. Even though he has it on Blue, it just sounds wrong.

Well he is more a BJ than a Bill imo....

I don't know what they would mean by audible, but what is this set list from?? What is the Jolson medley? Did they sing Mammy and Camptown Races???

The OCD in me will point out that medley is spelt wrong.

An audible in a set list is a song that can be changed to something else during the show. Sort of a "we could play Jaded, or we could play The Judge's Daughter".

Does anyone have scans of the Billie Joe/Rolling Stone article from 2013, with the interview based upon his rehab/meltdown stint? Any other scans based upon that of any interviews he gave would be cool too.

There's a section on GDA just for magazine scans if you want to look around for other things as well. :)

Billie says in the interview that that's the only one he's doing on the whole rehab thing, and he's stayed true to that! :D

This is pretty random and I am not sure if anyone knows this, but has anyone found out who the female voice is in Blood Sex and Booze that says "head down, you understand me?" Just curious.

She was called Mistress Simone, I believe... Skip to 5:45 :)

She's even credited in the album booklet along with the additional musicians, "Dominatrix - Mistress Simone". Apparently they told the engineer who was her victim, Tone, that he wouldn't get a credit if he didn't do it :lol:

I have a terrible ear for this sort of thing, so what does the rhythm guitar do during the solo in Sex, Drugs & Violence?

E - A - E - A - Ab (for one beat) - E - A - B, twice.

Thank you! :)

I was actually just coming on here to say that I figured it out through some weird thing that I might explain later. It's like the first verse, for anyone who's wondering how the chords are played.

I have a silly question. :ermm:

Why does Billie Joe say "This song is dedicated to everybody who took the train to get here tonight, alright?" for JOS from BIAB?

I always thought it was a reference to Joe Strummer's "Last train to 'insert random town/city here' " chant that he used to do during White Man From Hammersmith/Palais. Seen here at about 1.50

I'm probably completely wrong though :P
