-Billiejoezee- Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 I have a feeling they did this mostly for jakob. Someone else on facebook mentioned it and I agree. Maybe they did it so jakob would be left out? Not that he feels left out or anything but because joey has EA, billie has green day, adrienne is into both and she does her own stuff too like NRDC and atomic garden and stuff, but jakob doesn't really do anything. I started thinking this because apparently on the record, besides billie being credited as "Daddyo" jakob was credited as "Boo". So maybe the whole thing was for him? So he could show his guitar skills? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bam-Itz-GreenDay Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 When I started listening to Little Silent Boy, I was like then I was like then I was like when I heard Billie's voice. I am really suprised at how well Jakob sounds on guitar. With us both being 13, I could never be that good this young. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems kinda condescending and unlike Billie and Adie if they did this just to make Jakob not feel left out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he could show his guitar skills? Erm, no. No offense, but this seems really far fetched to me. First of all, he's the youngest, so maybe he's also gonna have a band later when he's 16 or something. Who knows? Also, as mentioned above, he might also have other hobbies. Just because his family is into music doesn't mean he has to do the same thing. Plus, when Joey was 13 he wasn't really in the media somewhere either, so why would Jakob be? I think this was a family project they did just for fun and it seems really unlikely that they did it just so Jakob could get some attention too. In other news, Little Silent Boy = Best Christmas song ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Billiejoezee- Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Not saying they did it so jakob could get attention, but maybe (besides the fact that they did it as a family thing) they also did it so jakob could do something. I mean, why else would jakob be nicknamed "boo" and then have the whole band called "The Boo"? This is the first time jakob does something big like this... I don't know. Just a random thought I had today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaddi. Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Ah, okay. Yeah, it sounded like you thought he also wanted to have some attention in your first post. I'm pretty sure he also has some things he likes and does without the public knowing about it. But yeah, it is kinda interesting that they called themselves "The Boo" considering it's also his nickname. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather. Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Maybe the band was Jakob's idea or something and that's where "The Boo" name came from. Maybe he wrote some of the songs. But regardless, I don't see this as something his parents intentionally did to make him feel involved. I don't think they're that calculated of a family. It seems like it was more natural than that.

farley drexel hatcher Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Or maybe he went by 'Boo' on the sleeve because, in the event they did decide to release it to the public, he didn't feel comfortable with his name on it. I dunno, first thing I thought XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, exactly. I mean... which family would be like "Okay, we're gonna do a family project now, so everyone can feel involved" Seems kinda weird to me. Plus, I'm pretty sure that Jakob doesn't feel excluded in any way. He's still a kid... normally, parents don't want their kids to be all over the media at such young age. Unless they are Tom Cruise or David Beckham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gerardsangel4977 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 I am really suprised at how well Jakob sounds on guitar. With us both being 13, I could never be that good this young. Well, sure, if you only just picked guitar up *now*...but if you'd been playing for a couple years and put in a decent amount of practice, you definitely could. In fact, it's easier for younger people to pick up instruments than adults. maybe but who's to say he doesn't have other hobbies? Maybe he's into sports I dunno. Seems kinda condescending and unlike Billie and Adie if they did this just to make Jakob not feel left out. Okay, just because I'm tired of the whole weird thing around here where people seem convinced that Joey is the Golden Child and Jakob is the poor, neglected bastard, I am posting this excerpt from a news article, which appeared in the Contra Costa times in 2007: Whenever the topic switches to another member of the Armstrong clan, Ollie is off the sofa, grabbing a photo for visual effect. She picks up last year's Christmas card showing Billie Joe's two sons, explaining that their dad is also an assistant baseball coach. "That little one hit it over the fence," she said. "Billie Joe called me the other day and said 'Mom, you wouldn't have believed it.' "He's a good dad. All my kids are good parents." There. The kid exists. And he gets bonding time with dad. Happy? Or you know, it's really possible that you guys are looking far too deep into this without anyone really knowing the answer. I'd like this, but it wouldn't let me.

IscoredWaddlesgoals Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Apparently they only did this because social services found out about them locking Jakob in the cupboard under the stairs while Joey has two bedrooms and more and more birthday presents every year. They quickly made up a band and a name so the police will think they love him and his boarding school won't know where he is and send him letters.
