I'm loving the vibe I'm getting from this!

He might be slightly narcisistic hahah 

That’s okay by me. 💚 He’s got great taste in pics of himself. These are some of my favorites too.

I'm interested to know when they recorded this record. From memory, they said they only recorded 12 tracks for Rev Rad, which seemed like a low number given the time between the release of that and the trilogy. Maybe they meant they only recorded 12 Green Day songs and some or all of this was also recorded during those sessions.

No, they said they did no extra tracks during RevRad, that every track was on the record.  We know at least two of these Longshot tracks were from earlier projects, I’m guessing many of them were just unused songs and were reworked and recorded quickly at Otis in February when the Coverups were quiet. They wrote and recorded The Foxboro Hot Tubs record in something like a few days.

It's an interesting Theory, but it's been roughly two years since they were in the RevRad recording sessions. Have to think this batch of songs was done much more recently.

The state of the production on RevRad I hope these were recorded at a different time

 

With a producer

Remember that picture Billie posted from Otis a few months ago? January of February? I guarentee it wasn't recorded back in 2016 with RevRad.

I am sorry, we only discuss scientifically proven facts in this thread.

Like the beauty of Billie Joe's pictures and the possibility that stars will allign on April 1st and he'll finally release the fucking album.

On April 1st he will be doing the same thing every good parent does, stealing his kids easter eggs.

That is highly probable

Billie has been completely absent from social media for a week, so I think he’s really engrossed in this project and we’ll get real news about it soon.

not entirely. he posted on ig about the march for our lives and he just about 20 mins or so ago as im typing this posted something completely irrelevant *EDIT*: to this thread in specific * on IG. his patterns are sporadic anyway from what i've noticed unless they're on tour, in which case the longest he goes without a post is 2 days, three tops.

Someone asked if this is an April Fool’s joke and he said no (comments at link)

This little boy Billie shot has been circulating on IG recently. I think he’s searching himself on there and picking out his favorites just like us fangirls 😂💚

The question was 'wondering whether the longshot is just green day and they're going to reveal themselves on april fools day and do an impromptu tour' which they replied 'nope' to. Just putting it here in case someone has trouble seeing it :happy:

 

I still hope for an announcement on april 1st. Already jealous of everyone living in (or having the opportunity to travel to) the US for possible future live shows!

Maybe all the pictures of Billie are his way of saying he’s going solo.  Maybe he’s collaborating with a bunch of people to make the album and the name The Longshot is his alter ego like David Bowie use to go by Ziggy Stardust.  This is just my guess.  I think the songs are original songs written for all different eras from the 60’s until now.   I’m just guessing about all of this but that’s what’s made sense to me when I think about all the pictures we have seen.

Side project yes, “going solo” no. No one leaves this band unless it’s in a coffin — BJA 😉

in the hypothesis that it is a solo project: doing a solo album doesn't mean he' s leaving Green Day...

I didn’t mean leave the band I should said that when I posted.  There’s a lot of people who stay with there band and do solo albums.  Like Brandon Flowers he does The Killers and sometimes he will go on his own and do a solo album. That’s what I meant with Billie that maybe he was going to do that it was just me guessing.  I didn’t mean to start a big thing over it.

I consider that a side project because chances are Mike or Jason are at least involved. “Going solo” can imply a foot out the door. Don’t mean to nitpick over language.
