My sister texted me and all she said was “Why didn’t he spit his damn gum out” with no context. I guess she knew what I was doing tonight. :lol:

Performance was great. I don't know why I was so surprised he played BOBD because that song is really on the nose for what we're going through. In hindsight that was an obvious choice.

Apparently Billie Joe trending is causing some people to have temporary panic attacks on twitter until they realize it was for performing a song on tv. Tough times to have your name trending 🥺

Wow Billie’s vocals sounded really great! He was also adorable. I also really like what he said at the beginning, it was short and honest. He said something about being grateful to be playing for people, I just wanna say that I’m grateful he is playing for us, making us escape a little bit during these times.

Overall I thought the performances were pretty good.

My favorite performances were Billie (Joe), Backstreet Boys and Alicia Keys.

Since the tour won't happen now, it was really nice to see a new live preformance. :wub: Also enjoyed BSB's preformance.

Oh damn. This made me weep a little. "I walk alone, I walk alone." Who would have thought that BOBD would get a whole new, sad meaning in times like these😥 That was beautiful.

Oh wow! That was so wonderful! :wub: Billie looked and sounded perfect and I'm so glad I got to watch it. I was sad I couldn't see it at the time of the stream.

Jakob was in Oakland a few days ago. He was on twitch streaming & playing games and said he was in a quarantine still. 

joey is in LA/Orange County somewhere in quarantine with Cole. 

I think I heard Billie say on his livestream he's in Minesota? They must have all separated.

Ok, so Dave Grohl and Billie were the highlights of the night hands down. I mean, their performances were just the most sincere, grounded... and all around appropriate considering the circumstances.

Dave Grohl - preach it, brother!  

That Backstreet Boys performance was the most cringe-worthy thing I've ever seen in my life, and I've got no problem with The Backstreet Boys or the song.  I like it and I'm not ashamed.  But what the heck did I just see?   That was the fakest, most phoned in, professionally edited bullshit of all time.  

They just came across as pathetic and disingenuous.     

 

Seems like I'll be the odd one out, but I agree with you. However, it's not the fact that they were edited together that bothers me.  I mean, that's just keeping with their characteristic style. No, it's the fact that they added in the playback in the chorus. That is a COMPLETE no-no for me. Always has been, always will be. 

Yes, even in the individual segments they were doing their kind of posturing / over the top kind of thing, but hey, to be fair, that is just how they do things. It's not my style, but that doesn't mean they can't sing either. 

The playback or pitch-tuning in the chorus however, no excuse...

I just got online, haven’t watched it yet, and first thing I see is your post and I was like “again???” We all know who she meant :lol:

This was so sweet especially with Lenny there. His voice sounds great

My husband says AJ was the best. :confused: 

(He was a bigger fan than me growing up — his whole room was decked out in posters and he even entered a video contest to try meet them by singing a song. :lol:)

Howie was totally underrated just saying. Literally everyone I knew liked Nick best lol

He said hello to Minnesota to someone in the comments.

Have started watching the livestream and am delighted to see Billie actually didn't make it about him!  Really nice low key intro and go... .  Probably won't be able to stand to watch too of this judging the by first bits! Great performance, he looks and sounds great, love the additional dog collar bells and brief appearance from Lennie, oh and the blown kiss! 😍 😍

Oh god, it's just the nature of Twitter. Every time I see a celebrity trending I get a mini heart attack.

Every song I've recorded since 2011 has dog jingles in the background.  I like their tone better than cow bells, and it's super annoying to have a cow in the house.
