IcyMoffatt Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 I will repeat here what I said in the Instagram thread: I don't know how I should react to Billie catapulting himself in the crowd. That was a hell of a jump! So... Poor kids who got crushed by Billie? OR Those lucky kids got to see Billie very close and touched him? Billie or not, if I would have been in the kids' place, seeing a guy catapulting himself in my direction, I know I would have pushed myself out of the way.

Montclare Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 I love how half of the comments on "the dive" have "little human", "tiny man" in them. 11 minutes ago, IcyMoffatt said: Billie or not, if I would have been in the kids' place, seeing a guy catapulting himself in my direction, I know I would have pushed myself out of the way.

Plus, Billie's voice sounded really sexy. He sounds so awkward and not quite glad to be there. And that nervous laugh. Poor bean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billie Joes Eyelids Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 I'm a little late here today so have thoughts on several topics that have been discussed. The Halloween face paint: Billie's is much messier than the Jack Skellington before, but I totally understand as he I'm positive just wanted something on his face to not be recognized, and he was obviously very focused on his boys ❤️ Joey spraying water on people: He has taken several of his dad's stage habits on, and I think it's cute. He and Cole kiss and grab each other on stage just like Billie with his band mates. Also, Cole is really carrying on the Billie Joe stage persona. He does the chants, the call/response, the political rants, whole bit. I've never watched a SWMRS show all the way through, but I've seen enough excerpts to notice that he is trying very hard to control a crowd like Uncle Billy does. The stage dive: I had to watch it several times for it register what I was seeing. I cannot believe the sir he got and how fearless that was. It could've gone so wrong.

You wouldn’t be able to get out of the way in time unless it was a really undersold show or the stage diver aimed right for the pit for some idiotic reason. Otherwise you’d have like one second of warning and would never be able to move away in time in a packed room. Honestly, unless it’s like a 200+ pound dude, or absolutely no one is paying attention, then it’s not that bad. 29 minutes ago, neverdone2000 said: Joey spraying water on people: He has taken several of his dad's stage habits on, and I think it's cute.

The stage dive: I had to watch it several times for it register what I was seeing. I cannot believe the sir he got and how fearless that was. It could've gone so wrong. I sort of get the impression that Cole’s stolen moves are more deliberate and Joey’s are more through exposure. Like he isn’t intentionally mimicking his dad, it’s just behavior he’s seen his whole life. I feel like Cole though pays close attention to Billie. That’s just my impression though. Regarding the dive from Billie’s POV, It’s really not as scary as you might think. As long as you don’t have to jump a large gap between stage and barricade. You’re gonna hit bodies pretty much no matter what and it’s more likely one of them will get hurt than you in my experience. Though you never know.

Hermione Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 This would be an example where the subject could've just been discussed in the Instagram thread . Like if there's nothing particularly fangirly to add why not just post there where everyone's already talking about it? Please just try to think whether you actually want to fangirl about something before bringing it up here, if it's already being discussed somewhere else and you can just comment there there's no need.

Poor bean Ikr, he's like that in most '94/'95 interviews that I've seen. I'm glad he's come out of his shell and gained more confidence over the years, but I can't deny that the shy/awkward side of him is pretty cute.

I think it's a safety thing. We don't want to say the same exact things on another thread and then be accused of fangirling and told by other members to come over here and do it here instead. It's just easier and more comfortable to do it here since we've been doing that all along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's just no need for general/not particularly fangirly discussion of things that are already being discussed in another thread (eg the discussion about Billie stagediving). Maybe just think "Am I fangirling or just making a general comment about this that would fit better in another thread?" before bringing up a subject here.

Cole is also "heeyyooo"-ing a lot When I was at my SWMRS show I always laughed when I noticed some Green Day influence. Let's be honest, they are learning from the best Plus, Billie didn't invent many of the things he does on stage himself also, he was influenced by Freddie Mercury and others, so I think it's really nice that the SWMRS follow in their footsteps. On another note, I stumbled accross this Instagram post, some lucky fan seems to have met Billie at the airport in Rio. I'm just wondering what happened to his hair, it looks weird (but still hot). And the neckline of his shirt... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacejunkie punk Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 ^^^ He looks incredible. When I first saw it, I wondered if it was a few years old. I think it’s just the hat that makes his hair look funny, but clean shaven and a little thinner he looks really young. And yes I appreciate the ink peeking through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you can really see his hair all that well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedundantIdiot Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 I'm late to the party but I love his smile when he was crowd surfing and I love the pictures of him arriving in Brazil He didn't crowd surf for very long though . Perhaps because of what he once said about crowd surfing in an interview: "There were fingers in places that only my wife and doctor are allowed" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, people would be more handsy with him than they might a random person. It really does seem like he had a lot of fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
