He lies though - he said they mix up the setlist. Also when they describe the period between Trilogy and RevRad as a four year break. It was not their longest period between albums (that was 2004-2009) and it wasn’t a break of four years. They toured the Trilogy in 2013 and Australia and SXSW in 2014, played in Cleveland and at Gilman together in 2015 and then started recording RevRad in 2016. For them there was a long pause from 2014-2016 but nothing like a four year break and all that time Billie was writing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't consider Soundwave as a trilogy tour - I mean they did headline but it doesn't compare to a stand alone tour. 1 hour ago, Jane Lannister said: Come on, there's a chance to catch an odd rare song when you go 10 times.

No but my point is it was multiple shows and they were still performing together into 2014 so how can they call it a four year break? They’re not on a break if they’re still touring or performing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerjeezus Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 The only reason it's called a break is that Billie said they're going to take a small break in one interview after foreverly came out and everyone interpreted it as they're going on a hiatus, while it seemed he was just saying that they're not going to churn a new album right away. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What it actually meant was “I’m gonna think about something besides Green Day for the next ten minutes” 😂 Really I think they only thing they stopped was 5-6 day a week rehearsal for a while. They’ve taken just as long of a “break” since RevRad with other side projects, travel and family. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it wasn't a longer break than what they usually take but maybe he was focusing on other projects for a short while - foreverly, the movie, he wrote songs for a musical, produced someone else's album etc, so it wasn't just time off before starting to work on a new gd album for him. Haha that's quite a lot of work to do during "time off". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The word break is surely meant for Green Day, since obviously Billie can't stay long without doing stuff, maybe saying that period was a break since his rehab is like saying "even if we went on with the trilogy tour afterwards, everything was meant to be put on pause, for an undetermined time, until a new thing would come out, a new album, and that would mean the end of the uncertain time that had started since is rehab." Maybe that's what "break" is for, finishing what has been started, without being sure about the routine afterwards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And rebuilding a car, and building Otis and starting a guitar shop business and playing with the Replacements and Norah and Jason and promotional interviews for Foreverly and the movie, the film festival performance... and seriously there’s no such thing as time off for him 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I admire him for being able to balance all these projects/ideas while spending time with his kids, 80 and family. That's some serious work/life balance that I, who has 1 8-5 job, find difficult to balance. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Rumpelstiltskin2000 Posted January 17, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 17, 2019 Talking about Billie being a workaholic, while I was hiding in the shade waiting for The Longshot show in Santa Ana a randoml lady (I'd say maybe 70?) approached me. She started talking to me about the friends she was waiting for and then suddenly about how she knew Billie had been working at Otis 8 hours a day and sleeping there. I have no idea who she was and when her friends arrived we parted company. Obviously only hearsay but it sounds about right! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squashie Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 @Rumpelstiltskin2000 I could see that happening. Getting inspired in the middle of the night and just being able walk into the studio and work out whatever that spark of insanity is huge. Credit to 80 for being so damn understanding of his work habits (and Brit & Sarah). I can't imagine being away from my loved one that much. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post The Bellie Posted January 20, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 20, 2019 Reminds me that one time I was fangirling in front of a friend, and he said to me "you know, Billie is not a little angel above human condition. He pisses, shits and cleans his nose like everyone else". And I was like "er... yeah, and if you knew how much he makes everybody know about it" 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
