And also the more he does alone the more he proves he can do it without those guys. And it makes me sad that they used to be an all for one and one for all gang and now by doing this kind of thing alone when the other bands are not it looks pathetic and like Green Day are literally phoning it in. When they want fans to shell out hundreds of dollars to see them, it’s low effort. The way I see it, as long as Billie still wants to write songs and perform, we’re good. It doesn’t really matter if it’s Green Day or The Longshot or solo. After all, it’s always his songs so it’s not that much of a deal if he performs on his own. He’s not stealing anybody’s spotlight by doing so, but yeah I see that it feels different. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musically that’s true, I just thought they were one of those bands that was in it together for the long haul, at least that’s how they always talked about it. I love everything Billie does, but I don’t want to see Green Day drift apart. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billie's always done stuff on the side plus he's likely going to perform a Green Day song on this anyway. They've mostly been more separate this last year because of covid, soon enough they'll be playing together/touring/making albums together again.

Yosuke Hanamura Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 I’m guessing the members from either FOB or Weezer will join Billie on stage to promote the tour. Could be Brain Stew or Pollyanna if Weezer is accompanying Billie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JAS0N Posted May 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 17, 2021 My thoughts were that this was his rescheduled appearance from last year. He was supposed to perform a No Fun Mondays song on June 5, 2020 on the show and got bumped when the George Floyd situation happened and they decided to have a black performer instead in his spot. He was never rescheduled so this is possibly the make up for that along with some Hella Mega promo with FOB and Weezer. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave To The Network Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I think that's the most likely scenario. I'm looking forward to seeing Billie perform! I just hope to god he doesn't do it with a beard. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post michael1989 Posted May 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 18, 2021 It's probably one member from each band, but they just didn't know the names of the FOB bassist and the Weezer dude. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lights Out Levine and David Field. Then Billie can be one step closer to what obviously is his ultimate goal- becoming a full time member of Prima Donna. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pacejunkie punk Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 According to my TV screen guide, just Weezer and FOB are performing on this. Billie, Rivers and Pete are doing an interview like they did with the promotion in 2019. No idea why Green Day aren’t performing when it’s their tour but ok 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go by what they said during the promotion, this is Green Day’s tour. It was their desire to play a stadium tour and do it like Monsters of Rock. They pitched it to Crush. Mike named it Hella Mega. They invited Weezer and FOB to join it. (Only after they were hired did Weezer record an album of stadium rock to tour on) Green Day were the first to announce it. They headlined Whiskey A GoGo and played a set twice as long as the other bands. This is their tour. Except now when it comes to promotion you wouldn’t know that. Just because Green Day are being incredibly gracious and humble with their supporting bands doesn’t make it any less their tour. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
