That depends if there’s a website that’s going to stream it.

Okay, I hope so! Thanks!

Where in this does it say the new cover will be part of the performance?

It doesn't, I said I think it might be. Just my opinion.

What Billie said seems to imply that it isn't just the cover again. He said "recorded this last night." and we already know he's released that cover, so I think there's going to be something new.

1. Knowing it’s a national audience, and probably acoustic, it will be Almost certainly be something well-known by Green Day.

B. Assuming each artists gets more than 1 song, he might fill in with some lesser knowns, but they have be ones he can do acoustic unless he’s breaking out the drum machine and electrics. 
 

My guess: basketcase, time of your life and probably holiday/American idiot.

hilarious if he throws in boulevard of broken dreams

I don’t think there will be more than 1 song. So many artists now, 1 hour show

But I thought he wanted to be a Cult Hero? 😀 Seriously though, the song is about being an obscure underdog and proud of it.  Not sure he wants to be more famous than he is because at a certain point it just means more crap in your life and nothing good.  He's got all he wants.

I think his work is worth a lot.

He used the word “filmed” which means he video recorded his own performance of whatever song he’s singing. I just don’t want anyone to get their hopes up. I don’t think anyone is going to sing more than one song with this many performers unless it’s like 3 hours or something.

Let’s hope haha. I mean what else are most people doing? Let’s see what happens. Hopefully something amazing and if not it’ll still be something incredibly great.

I like how they keep using Longshot promo photos for this!

Fangirl comment: he is so hot in the Longshot promos!

But also: the Longshot rules.

I think that just meant that his performance was already recorded. I can't imagine any of these performance are live since there are so many technological variables that could disrupt the broadcast.

I'm guessing he plays I Think We're Alone Now.

The iheart article I posted somewhere in here says they are filmed by the artist, so no, it’s not really live.

🙄 I guess that answers my question of whether he’s a household name 🥺

I can forgive them for shortening it, it is long for titles and lots of times he seems to just get called Billie, but Joe! Good god, who are these philistines!!

Really the only proper thing to do is just say Billie Joe of Green Day and leave off the Armstrong since he did that himself through the nineties anyway
