Maybe to keep things low-key? 

I have a strong feeling that it’s not The Armstrongs. That would be cool if it was though.

The Longshot: featuring The Legweaks. You heard it here first.

Longshot just posted a nice edit drawn by a fan.

Its clearly a case of Billie cloning himself and those clones have now gone rogue and have named themselves the Longshot.

A tour maybe? Or video? A video would be great too.

So, my money is on a Billie solo project where he plays every instrument. I'm sure that's been said. What are the other theories going around?

On that Instagram post by Billie, Jeff commented "My name is Rod and I like to party." Is he just being weird, or does this mean that he is involved?

When is Jeff not being weird? :lol: I got the impression it was a reference to something though but I’m not sure what. Other people replied by saying it too with different names.

Good point. MAYBE all of those people are all involved with the Longshot too!

It's a reference to the movie Hot Rod, Watch it if you haven't.

Oh, look at that. Not as exciting, but that is one less mystery that we all have to solve I suppose

As general words of comfort he is starting to cross post more to his BJA account simultaneously. He’s added over one hundred people to The Longshot account this weekend alone but has also posted everything to both places so following his personal account is just as good at this point for news.  We can’t be more than 1-2 weeks away from a big official announcement.

That's what we said 1-2 weeks ago lol. Idk, given Billie's history of not following through, I doubt there's any planned schedule for this release.

Sadly that's true. Like when he said we were getting more trilogy remixes lol I still think that was a missed opportunity.

The sense I'm getting from this is Billie has an itch he needs to scratch. He's got a bunch of songs that he wrote for other projects, songs that didn't otherwise feel like Green Day songs, maybe a cover or two. He reworks some and releases them as a solo album of sorts. This provides that much needed itch relief, plus it gives Mike and Tré some time to live life with their families. And as an added bonus, keeps insatiable fans at bay while the band regroups for XIII.

That would be awesome if something pans out soon! As a Plan B, Billie if you read this let greenday_401 (that’s me) into the Longshot party on Instagram.

Solo Trilogy!   Haha

This makes sense.  It also goes along with past statements Billie has made about not wanting to do a Billie Joe Armstrong album because basically he is Green Day.  He's doing it under a different name because though it may be a 'solo' record, there will be a band with him and he deems it to be real or honest by giving the thing a collective name.  Something like that.

The Longshot name is smart. If he released it under Billie Joe Armstrong the media would have a fake news field day — “solo project? What could this mean?! Is Green Day over?!?!” This makes it much clearer it’s a side project.
