In case anybody wanted to see the setlist, here it is Had a great time! See you all at the SF show if you're going! Cheers!

All this new music me -

For anyone interested, here are some of my videos; let me know if you want any more, it was a great show! Even got to meet the band afterwards! Great seeing everyone again! Cheers!

Billie went live and said they just shot a video

I just want to say that the line from Chasing A Ghost, "Thanks for the company but I'm still standing alone" is brilliant.

No problem, here they are! Thanks again for your comments!

Hey all, here's a picture of the setlist and some more videos. I also have a rather funny video of Billie Joe chatting with the fans after the show in case anybody wants to see, with him autographing a fan's vinyl by holding the sharpie in his mouth, lol, but it's a bit hard to see anything because the lighting is so dark. Fan: Hey Billie, can I get a picture? Billie Joe: NOOOOOOOOO! Just kidding... (proceeds to pose for a selfie, lol)

Ugh, I just wanna hear the damn album already!

All these news photos and videos are making me so happy. I can't believe how beautiful he is and how good he sounds. I've already said it but I'll repeat it forever; WE ARE BLESSED TO HAVE THIS MAN AND HIS MUSIC! God I love him so much I could stare at this picture for hours (and probably will), he looks so genuinly happy and that brings me so much joy.

All of Dead Sound and All of The Longshot? OK, I'll try Just got my picture taken with Billie Joe at the soundcheck; al these years it finally happened lol

I am tired of the debate over Voice Filters, so I have decided to meme them. Billie, keep doing what you do best. "The Cursed Voice Filters."https://imgur.com/a/R93vf (He has a third Favorite Son) I love all of you, and I love everyone involved with Green Day. HAPPY TUESDAY!

No one but them can say for sure, but they do arrange their own bass and drum parts and confer together on the direction they want and the sound they are after. Mike has described their partnership as a democracy with an elected leader. They are the ones Billie trusts the most to give their opinions on his songs in process and to give him the support an insecure artist needs to push himself to his boundaries. Their contributions are both tangible and intangible but Billie would be the first to say he couldn’t do it without them in quite the same way no matter how much you may like his solo projects.

No problem! Here are a couple more. I'll upload the rest now. Thanks again!

YES!!! MERCH IS COMING!!!!

I will start flooding Longshot Instagram requesting for Devil's Kind

I got The Dead Sound setlist and Mack Narragon and Bill Schneider autographed it after the show, which was nice. As for the 7" Longshot vinyls, I had over a dozen requests, but I was only able to buy six, as the merchandise booth has now limited vinyl purchases to only 2 per person. I then asked a couple friends to buy 2 each for me, until I essentially got cut off, lol. Anyways, I ordered some 7" cardboard mailers from Amazon.com which should arrive this week, then I'll start sending them out. Hope this helps,

I'd rather read a debate of the vocal effects than a debate of the debate of the vocal effects.

There’s a phrase that goes “too many cooks spoil the broth.” Mike and Tre are clearly perfectly alright with letting Billie take the reins for the most part. It’s ridiculous and naive to say all members of any band contribute equally - like any project, you need a leader to oversee it all. Ugh just fuck off, the only cancer in this forum is you

There's been about 30 years of playing, touring, recording, writing, creating, and spilling blood and sweat together, the overwhelming majority of which neither of us has been privy to. I'm certainly not qualified to opine on how to allocate credit to any of them, and therefore I am not going to speculate.

I've seen this picture on Instagram a few times today- but I'd not seen it at all before today

This is blasphemy - Mike is literally the least serious dude ever.

Today was the day that I realized just how easy it is to accidentally spell it The Longshit.

For zooming I mean science purposes

I know Taxi Driver hasn't been getting a lot of love on here, but honestly after listening to the 3 songs several times, that's the one that's been stuck in my head the most. I think I enjoy Chasing a Ghost's lyrics and themes the best, but Taxi Driver is super catchy.

This is so awesome that I'm willing to overlook the fact that he spelled Billie's name wrong.

"I have a question" "Oh Shit" "What's your favorite meme?" http://chemicallyromancedamericanidiot.tumblr.com/post/172953453266

See you at 1234 Go Records! I'll probably be in the back, but maybe I can get some vinyl for others who can't be there (if they don't sell out first). Cheers,

ok, on topic. I am now convinced Kevin Preston and David Field are definitely in The Longshot. They both just started instas today, and followed @longshot and funny enough, for like a split second, David Field sent me an follow request. Then he took backsies! LOL! The only way he would even get my insta is through the @longshot account. I present the evidence to the members of the court.

*adds "@Admiral_Needa best overall contributor don't @ me " to 2018 awards notes* Thank you so much for filming and sharing!!! And yes obviously we need Funny Billie Content please. Having a serious case of the feels right now. I haven't listened to Green Day much the past few months, (naturally) felt a bit whatever, but after the EP came out and especially right now watching these videos with Billie having so much fun on stage it's taking me right back to last summer, and remembering just how much joy and love that weird little man can spread with his music. Love him and love The Longshot almost even in a would-consider-travelling-if-they-were-to-pop-up-in-the-UK kinda way Edit: also STAY THE NIGHT for fuck's sake I can't even

Can we just have more of this please between Billie and Kevin? (I’m sorry I just had to) C’mon guys, lose your shit

The Longshot makes it so obvious that trilogy would have worked so much better as a side project.

They played Stay the Night at the most recent show!

Here's some eye candy for the lovers of shirtless Billie

Well, hello! 😍😍😍 Billie, I want to know your skin care routine, cause your face is flawless!

Don't know if it's already been mentioned but I just noticed Billie was wearing the same stripy blue shirt from the Revolution Radio video in the pics from the new video shoot . It's Longview/Basket Case/Walking Contradiction all over again.

I am LIVING for his Longshot look. Everything I wanted except the hair, that I find myself loving anyway! I'm officially a big fan of his hair slicked back. Today is a wonderful day to be a fangirl 'cause DAMN he's so hawt right now.

Holy fuck, that red pic tho, asdfghjkl. I've just woken up to this and I swear to god every organ in my body just exploded. I was just staring at the pic and drooling for about 10 minutes, and then I actually had to leave this thread to get my mind together before I could comment on it. He should be tried for attempted murder. I just don't understand how it's possible for a human being to be so mind-blowingly gorgeous. Fucking hell Billie, what are you doing to me?

How any male could watch this and not become gay the same second is beyond me. Damn, he should have called the new song "Kill your Fans" cause that what he's doing right now.

BODY BAGGGG

That comment about Tre and Mike needing to step it up is totally absurd. Tre's drumming on Revrad was great, that solo in Bang Bang still makes me smile every time I hear it! And mike has some cool basslines on that album, but I do think there was more room for him to come up with some lines, but he fucking nailed it on the trilogy! Not every newer Green Day song calls for crazy bass lines like their songs in the 90's did, so Mike just kinda plays to the song anymore. Billie is a great songwriter, and I feel like Mike and Tre do add a lot to Green Day, where as The Longshot just feels like Billie with a backing band, it's a very guitar heavy band with great vocal melodies, the bass and drums are just... there. they're pretty basic and could be played by anyone, I've never felt that way about Green Day. and I'm glad that Billie chose to use these songs as a side project instead of a Green Day album. They're definitely very Billie, but in my opinion this is not Green Day by any means. I do get some trilogy vibes from the Longshot, but that's because those albums had a lot of guitar leads and those songs were a bit more melodic, but also those are a lot of peoples' least favorite albums lol. I wonder if the trilogy would have done better if it was a side project?

Can we not refer to a message board to cancer of all things...

Devil's Kind was the track I was looking forward to the most!

KILL YOUR FRIENDS

Well, this "TOP SECRET" smells like a Longshot release, doesn't It?

The canon abbreviation for 21st Century Breakdown around here is "21CB."

I'm going mental. But I'm going to see the longshot twice!!!!!!!!!!!! Aaaaaaaaaahhhhh!!!!!!!
