Billie is marinated in charisma.

When, while you're waiting with your cat at the vetenarian clinic, you learned that the dog to your left, the one to your right and the one the secretary is talking about on the phone right in front of you are all named Rocky. I miss Billie's Rocky:

This video is so badass : I love watching Green Day play songs from their first albums, the joy and energy they put in it, especially Billie, as if it was their first time playing it, or their last time, anyways with an always renewed pleasure. My favorite songs are for the most part among their latest half of albums, but seeing how Billie performs the older songs, especially some of them such as Basket Case and She, is something that brings a lot to my love and admiration for him. And never fails to brighten my day. Thank God this man exists.

Weezer's Green Day cover is bland (and also pathetically censored switching "fucked" for "hugged"). I feel like Rivers Cuomo doing something with Billie would equal blandness. I like Dave Grohl but I can't really imagine his voice with Billie's. Would be kind of interesting to hear but again...Foo Fighters aren't as interesting as Green Day. Collaborating with rock acts that are more generic sounding than themselves seems like it would result in less rather than more interesting music. See their collaboration with U2, or any other general rock act they've played with or written for.

Thing 2 and I were driving today & Bohemian Rhapsody came on the radio - don't know what the other motorist thought but we thought we were at a GD concert

When you consider Jesus of suburbia a hymn and the American Idiot record must be played in order.

He doesn't have to bend down to far...

He does! And that looks like the good kind of exhaustion. Like when you've just had an experience that wore you out but was extremely rewarding.

That's where I grabbed his leg to hold him up as he crowdsurfed and felt his leg hair lmao. Since he's in Italy it's about time the shorts made an appearance

Legs. He has the most gorgeous knees and thighs. He also looks really relaxed and the way 80 is holding his leg is adorable.

Billie becoming one with his horse...😂 🐎 http://chitownpunkgirl.tumblr.com/post/175190455722/and-two-become-onekinda

Side note- when you google Tre Cool llama, this is one of the first pics that shows up.

That’s one lucky llama

Billie on a horse vs Billie on a llama, who would win? And yes loving all the pics from his trip! Billie is extra gorgeous when he's in Italy

Literally looks like an angel playing a harp

I just popped in to say that in all of the pics and videos from Cannes, Billie looks and sounds absolutely fantastic.

Why does their always have to be a rivalry? Why can't people just appreciate 2 different bands for different reasons. I think both of those bands are great!

Loving the pictures from Cannes! And now he's in Italy I'm looking forward to seeing the pictures from there .

Billie just posted this: The caption though. It originally said "Me and my baby" but he edited it and changed it to "Me and my bambino". Either way, it's too fucking cute, I'm actually crying rn.

I just found these:

Pretending to be about to open them I'm sure, teasing is what he does best

It's too calm in here. We have new photos of Billie, but the thread has never been so quiet. Maybe a old photo will do the job: Blond Billie with an open shirt... and closing or opening his pants? I hope he was opening!

To look like Abraham Lincoln . It's a good sign though, he probably just did it that way in the process of shaving the whole thing off unless he's going for a very unusual new look.

Worst Mike beard to date . And getting a pun in of course.

That smile... *faints in desk chair

Billie's smile makes me feel like everything is okay.

Congrats! Try all the possibilties with your bosses so you're able to make the trip. Plan that your flight might take something like 12 hours to reach California (but I don't even know if there is any direct flight from France to LA... I just estimated the number of hours considering that Montreal is 6 hours away from both Paris and LA). Also, if you go up to Oakland, I wrote a post Elsewhere like a week ago that might help you. I'm planning to travel again to California next year. If the Santa Ana concert would have been next week, I would have tried to buy a ticket (even if money is a problem) because I have a week off from work. But the concert is 2 weeks later and I will be doing a replacement at my job when it will happen. Since everybody seems a bit down right now, enjoy some smiling Billie pictures:

The irony is, I wanted to write "right" but I went too fast without checking my writing and forgot it It was special to be extremely close to Billie but as for big arenas GD shows, personally I'm sure I won't have a big problem enjoying big arenas GD shows as much as before; seeing how some of you feel makes me sad, I would prefer not to be in (what seems to be) the minority of us, when having no real issue with the small club / big show distance gap. I mean, as to see the glass as half full, I think it could be great, when seeing Billie from a little further at the next GD show, to cherish the memory that we've followed him into a small club and been standing very close to him, and that we wanted it so hard and made it, and that it was exceptional. I believe I could get even more excited for future shows thinking that way, because I am happy and grateful to have got that close to him, I feel so lucky and overwhelmed and I just want to see Billie again, the urge is still there and probably stronger but somehow less painful, so for me now it doesn't matter that much in which kind of venue, precisely because I've got to know the small one and that is no more unknown for me. As long as Billie is playing some place I'll be able to attend and that I do my best to have a sight as good as possible, as I've always done so far, I'm sure I'll feel all right. Hoping what I just wrote helps, someone please help me too, I gave a shot to buy a ticket for the Santa Ana show and I got one and I don't know what to do. I'm ready to liquidate all my savings on that one except I'm not supposed to be on holiday that week. Shall I buy the whole trip and put my bosses in front of the fait accompli, or ask them permission and take the risk that they say no? (I have more than a week of paid leave overdue but still... I'm afraid that the closeness with my last trip may be a problem.) Holy crap, if I go to California I'll definitely make a stop to Oakland as well. That only thought excites me as much as the gig...

I'm going with himself making out with the skull based off the previous FBHT posts... what a weirdo. Edit: Also, Billie posting at 9:30am California time is shocking.

Right.... Anyone else start singing along when they read that 😂

Aww, baby Billo with his dad. And that pic of him playing drums with Joey gets me every time - just the way he's smiling down at his boy though.

He's just turned the comments off now. Smart man.

Yes! I liked how he did that too. And when he sang "and we can watch the stars under the Seattle sky tonight". God, when he did that it just made me melt! Not to mention I was already pretty melted just from the heat of the club, so that's saying something! Lol Awww, thank you! It was amazing to be that close to him! I was riding the high of the show and seeing Billie all of yesterday, but this morning I had the inevitable crash. I woke up and just missed him so much it hurt, I actually cried! Haha. I always feel like I'll never get to see him again or experience being so close to him. I know I will almost certainly get the opportunity again to see him at some point, but there is always this voice in the back of my mind that's like "You'll never see him or The Longshot or Green Day again. This was the last time you will get to see him or be this close to him." It's so hard to fight it and it just makes me really sad and depressed, even though I know that's not true. It helps a lot to talk about it here, though.

These show are amazing. And the turned up collar rock n roller thing he has going on for this project.....yes

Oh, you don't need to tell me twice! I feel this way every time I look at him. He's so amazing! Here's one of my videos from the Longshot show last night. He's so gorgeous and perfect!

Holy fuck! That was like the greatest night of my life!! I was able to get pretty close and I got tons of pictures and video! It was so amazing to be in his presence in such a small, intimate venue! God, I love him! There was one point in the show where he opened a bottle of water and chugged like a quarter of it, but then handed the bottle to the crowd. So... technically, I got to drink out of the same water bottle as Billie! He like shoved the whole water bottle top in his mouth too, so even though it was passed around quite a bit, he definitely made his mark on it. Here are a few pics from the show on my Instagram. I will be uploading all of them onto my Flickr soon too and the videos to YouTube. That might be a little longer, though. UPDATE: I've uploaded all my photos on Flickr now. https://www.flickr.com/photos/lexiswildlifephotography/albums/72157697495464054 Thank you all for your wishes and support! It meant a lot and I got to experience something truly amazing! Love you all! Be sure to look at the last picture! I love that one because his smile is so sweet and genuine.

Those tall big guys are overrated. I love the little guys❤

Yeah the name itself being a hybrid of girl/boy name is a little bisexual isn’t it? 😄

Billie's a little bit feminine so it's fitting that his name is too, haha.

I agree, he has a beautiful name. Plus, it's original to have to have those 2 names match together. By the way, I had to search for his name signification: https://nameberry.com/babyname/Billie/girl / http://www.sheknows.com/baby-names/name/billie and http://www.sheknows.com/baby-names/name/joe (Since Joe doesn't have a real meaning, but is a diminutif of Joseph: http://www.sheknows.com/baby-names/name/joseph) Beside the fact that «Billie» became a female name after 1880, «Billie Joe» fits him perfectly according to his full name definition. It's totally him! He should be proud that his mom gave him this name. (Atleast he doesn't have a very weird name meaning that we can find in a regular dictionnary like I do.)

Haha, he could be in that photo. Yay! Honestly, the west coast crowds look relatively tame so you should be okay. Best advice is HYDRATE before hand, but stop early enough that you won't need to leave the crowd for the bathroom, lol. But seriously, hydrate because most of these shows have been pretty damn hot and the crowds pack in tight. Expect to be scrunched if you wanna be near the front. The more front/center you go, the more crushed you're gonna get, so I'd shoot for a spot according to what you wanna deal with. And have fun!
