No, I just mean that Billie has social anxiety and is more comfortable when he's with his 2 band mates I'm sure. You can just tell that sometimes in interviews he struggles with what to say & is thinking too much.  

That is more of an ADD/focus thing than anxiety, and I don't think it's ever been said he has social anxiety. Maybe performance anxiety at times but more likely anxiety that's more generalized and non-specific to anything.

He's listed 3rd, so my guess is that he's the musical guest. I'd be shocked if he does any kind of interview.  I'm going to speculate he plays acoustically by himself and either does Ordinary World or maybe covers a Husker Du song.

I think there's a logical flaw here that people assume he's performing something because he's on third. All musical guests appear last, but not all last guests are musical performances.

Well he has said that he's an introvert and that he is "extremely awkward in social situations", and I think he can be quite awkward in interviews. So that's close enough for me. 😂 But that's part of why I love him.

That's funny because I've heard him describe himself as an extrovert and that he can't relate to being an introvert. Where did he ever say he was an introvert? And that's different from social anxiety anyway. He may be dorky and awkward though, and that's pretty awesome. 🙂

Green Day blasting through a Husker Du medley would be awesome! But I doubt it will happen though :/

That's a good question. Does he ever do a game or skit instead?

Let's face it,, we're all hoping it's something more fun than another acoustic performance.

Thats what i was wondering... i dont watch fallon so idk.

True. I mean id enjoy an acoustic version of another song, but ordinary world is just... cheeseville, honestly.

True, and I hope you're right, I'd be surprised if Billie came on by himself for an interview. I hope he does, but only time will tell.

I don't want an acoustic performance. I want an interview or game. Does Fallon still do lip-sync battle? Acoustic performance won't make a blip, something fun could be a YouTube hit. Hopefully the new management realizes this. Plus I just wanna see Billie in a non-performing capacity for once. But it will probably be an acoustic performance.

He said it last year, apparently.

Yeah i see what you mean. I dont really care if they have a hit but itd be nice for them. Ive always found the celebrity games kinda boring but id love it cause it's ma boy. A singing game would be fun.

Itll be a performance though im sure of it heh

So sorry if I'm veering off course here but this article references this q article I was wondering if anyone had a scan or a link:

ETA: I'm the worst. I just ordered a back issue. This obsession needs to stop. 😔

Wasn't there an announcement a few days ago that Billie would be doing some broadway show. Is it possible he is going to be on talking about/promoting that show. Its the first thing I thought of tbh since both Broadway and Jimmy Fallons Show are in New York. And in that case its perfectly reasonable that he would be appearing without Mike and Tre.

Yes except that show you're talking about takes place the day before the Fallon appearance, hard to promote what is already over. He might talk about what it was like though, but more likely promoting the global citizen concert which will be the next day.

It was just a thought, I didn't know when the broadway show was or care enough to check 

[pacejunkie punk]

Actually it's funny we were having this discussion because Billie just posted on an Instagram fan account that he still finds interviews awkward.

[The Grohl]

Didn't he already perform Ordinary World on Fallon? Or was that another late night show?

That was on Conan i think.

I''m wondering if it's to talk about the AI movie. Or maybe it's a whole other new announcement. Both of which would be pretty cool.

You are correct:

 

[Jesus of Seneca]

Please! Someone just fucking talk to him instead of doing a quick song and saying bye. Let him speak! 

[burnoutbangbang]

Is this an interview or is he playing???
