Someone  (aka Billie) seems to be a fan of Marvel's Longshot. :lol:

I am still crying with laughter as I write this! 

Earlier this afternoon I showed Dad a picture of Billie with his new earring & an article about Billie telling those who are asking if GD have split to STFU. 

I then went out for a meal with Mum and Dad. Just as we were about to ask for the bill, the restaurant started to play wake me up when September ends! Dad heard it before I did and he rather loudly said "oh guess who it is? It's the 46-year old punk with a new earring who told people who think his bands splitting up to shut the eff up!"  :lol:

I shouldn't have been drinking my coffee when reading this :lol: I love that there are articles about what Billie said in his livestream, telling those who are asking if GD are splitting up to shut up!

Tre is awesome though,  if you ever get a chance to see the video (cant post it here) of Working Class Hero, Raw Clip #1 it largely focusses on Tre and it's just great to see him at work!

Just wanted to say how much I appreciate The Longshot EP. There are some really great songs on there. And just seeing them play the songs live at small clubs without anyone knowing the lyrics is really inspiring. I really liked the segment in Cuatro where they talked about having to prove themselves again with a bunch of new songs.

In my opinion, The Longshot pulls off the garage-y sound sound better than Green Day's previous attempts at "going back-to-basics" simply because they genuinely are a bunch of different musicians getting together for the first time. And the approach has been way more DIY. Let's face it, Green Day will NEVER be able to go back-to-basics in the truest sense. They're already a massive band. They'll always be playing huge arenas and doing promos on Good Morning America. It's not a bad thing.

With that said, a side-project is the way to go! The way garage/punk musicians do it these days with social media and all the different media platforms has never been more fun!

NSYNC got their star on the hollywood walk of fame today. The entire time all I could think about is how have these fuckers - this nearly 2 decades dead, immemorable boy band - got a star on the walk of fame,.... and Green Day have not. :runaround::happyhands:
