Would Mike and Tre have released the trilogy in Billie's honour? It could've had mainstream success, just as Amy Winehouse music had a spike in success oafter her death i wonder if Mike and Tre would do anything in his honour - would they do a show together ever again? They had a deal so I'm pretty sure the albums would have to be released. (I typed albuns at first, dammit april fools) There would have been a spike in sales because people would get nostalgic. I honestly want to believe they are decent people who wouldn't milk their friend's demise for money.

Replacing Billie wouldn't feel right, even for one off

I'm sure that would be the last thing on their mind, considering that they would have just lost their best friend.

Even though they could rather make a holographic version of him instead of Gerard Way. Maybe less people would weep. (Sorry I just love black humor.)

I was just saying that I doubt you can easily go "naw ain't gonna release this" when you signed a record deal and recorded three albums, especially in the situation when the studio wants to make as much money as fast as they can because death boosts sales. Especially tragic death at young age.

Especially tragic death at young age. Yeah especially as they would want people to hear his last music. A bit like post mortem releases of unfinished books by great authors (Terry Pratchet and the last book in the long earth series is an example, I believe). Cigarettes and Valentines might have got released at some point as well

The only regret I'd have is that I won't be able to see faces of those attending.

I love Billie's songs, but J.A.R and Haha You're Dead were both written by Mike and, in my opinion, they are two of the best Green Day songs. I was going to said something like this. yes I love Most of Billie's song (I said Most!)!but I just wish other two should add to writing or sing more So that Billie doesn't feel any more stressful for making record.

(At least idk how to feel about personal journals or correspondence being released withought the author's consent.) I do hope Cigarettes And Valentines will be released evenually, maybe as some kind of bonus material with a different record.

The whole idea of a post mortem show is beyond creepy so why not bring it to another level with a ghost-like hologram? It should take place on Halloween. Michael was pretty scary too.

Yeah with the personal journals (aka: Montage Of Heck, which is great but it still just feels invasive, and like courtney milking money). And I still hold to the statement that Cigs and Valentines is going to end up released some 50 years later after they're all dead, like Johnny Cash's Out Among The Stars.
Caroline Truong Posted April 3, 2017 Posted April 3, 2017 I don't want to think about Billie dying..or anyone in group who is..
pouty bitch Posted April 3, 2017 Posted April 3, 2017 How the hell have we gone from "What if Green Day had quit?" to "What would happen if Billie died?"
Caroline Truong Posted April 3, 2017 Posted April 3, 2017 Same thing! If Biilie die No Green day! the end!
