I spotted this on Instagram:

Bang Bang "give me fame... I am a semi-automatic lonely boy", Rev Rad "cherry bombs and gasoline.. legalise the truth", Say Goodbye (as discussed above), Forever Now "if this is what you call the good life, I want a better way to die", Ordinary World..... There's a lot about Rev Rad that's so relevant to the present day even though it's nearly 4 years old.

Love seeing him again!

I approve of the social distancing in the fan photo

Listening to RevRad and wow it hit me that Say Goodbye is more relevant than ever. From the chorus to “the sick and suffering” to the “cops on patrol/ones in control” it’s like he had a time machine 🥺

Oh for a second I thought Billie was announcing he’s taking No Fun Mondays a bit further

First time I’m listening to this... awful quality, great song and execution. These vocals must sound amazing on a proper recording.

Was listening to their old phone messages and their cover of Why Does It Always Rain on Me is so great I wish it were better quality. I nominate that song for the NFM treatment.

In 1995, Green Day turned down an invitation to playSesame Street because they “couldn’t handle a mosh pit full of five-year-olds.” https://www.iheart.com/content/2020-09-10-why-september-11th-matters-in-rock-history/?fbclid=IwAR2EVU0jZGKATN1gVuAergIWWeqSmE9NJSVD4TwsRI961ydgstNUWc4H6uQ

I'm listening to some of these songs again after a long while and you know what? FOAM still slaps. I love this sound.

He’s disgusting AND proud of it. Awful!

He’s gone full hobo... smh... but at least he’s getting some wave riding in.

Aww hobo billie joe

I’ve never seen this! 😂

They left a series of phone messages on their old official fansite between 2001-2004. Some were updates, talk and nonsense and also there was music, both covers and unreleased originals. The music is awesome plus it’s especially cool to hear Billie in real time during the C&V > AI period talk about songs he’s working on that he’s just meh about and then transitioning to songs he has that he really loves. You can listen to them all here courtesy of greenday.fm: https://greenday.fm/audio/phone-messages/

its a great tune. i love the original as well. ive hoped since that original post that it we would eventually get a clean copy.

I love their Johnny B Goode live cover. Would love to have a studio version of that. Although I'm not sure Billie can pull off the AI-era vocals anymore.

Just goes to show boys are gross even if they're hot 😂

Wow....that shirt took me back to early college I remember liking a few of their songs.

His eyes in this one are just killer. The most perfect color there is!

World tour please🙏

I have Bill's original response regarding the neck from one of the nimrod tour Blue guitars. It appears he edited his original post and I somehow saved the original email notification saying what he remembers. I took out the name of the person he replied to as well. He said: "Sorry **** I do not recognize your neck. That guitar is still intact and now belongs to a friend of ours. that picture I posted is current. over the years on tours there were dozens of Blue back up guitars that were put together, broken, rebuilt and given away. Only a few were blue replicas. Who did you get that neck from?" Given the gearhead I am, this proves my theory to some extent. I believe the Blue guitar he showed us swapped necks during tour. In later photos and videos (such as Hyde Park '98), you can see it has a Fender neck with a vintage tint thats also seen in the photo he posted (which apparently dates to 2017). Prior to that it has the Fender custom neck we’re all familiar with.

This guitar is listed by a friend of mine. I got to know him last year through a mutual friend and I’ve helped him with a few things for it. He’s been asked by multiple people (even Hans!) if he was selling it as it is Billie’s guitar to spec (obviously in much better condition). Also, there is someone in the UK who makes fantastic Blue replicas from all eras of the band, including Nimrod! https://www.ebay.com/itm/124303736247
