Green Day on Radio X today

[Rumpelstiltskin2000]

Apparently Green Day have just been on Radio X in the UK. Last time they put it up on Facebook later in the day

It was hilarious last time so hoping it’s good. Is it called Radio X Classic Rock now? 
 

I can see now that they are different, phew!

I thought this was an excellent interview! I like when interviewers ask about specific songs and lyrics like this.

[pacejunkie punk]

Has this been posted anywhere yet?

[stories and songs]

Oh, I thought it was this one! https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001v9zw. I see that’s Radio One though, so I guess this is something different.

[jengd]

So they just said (sadly that arsehole Chris Moyles again) that the zoom interview with Billie Joe will be on tomorrow.  Think he said they came in early first morning to zoom with him but he didn’t turn up, had to do it again the next day, he apologised.  Don’t know what the story was there, didn’t hear it all proprerly.  They also said he showed them round the room he was in!  I wonder if it’s the Otis lounge?  Anyway, will be aired tomorrow.

@jengd So basically, Billie wrote that note not to remind US of the interview but to remind HIMSELF to get on the Zoom?

For anyone not tuned in yet, they just said it’ll be on after 8

Bloody hell, had to download an app (‘cos DAB was a huge con), then create an account where they HAVE to know my sex and age…WTF, blatant data harvesting!  And they’d  fucking eating curry….on the radio! Better not have missed BJ.

I don’t think you have! This curry stuff is annoying 😂 switched over to Kerrang and they’re splitting the interview up in between songs, heard a little bit of Billie. 

[jengd]

Well that’s an annoying way to broadcast an interview on Kerrang!

[DeJennsitized]

He’s on Radio X now! Talking about Rob Cavallo at the moment. 

Dilemma is Radio X’s record of the week, and it’s one of Billie’s favourite tracks on the record. He says his actual favourite song changes all the time but it’s Fancy Sauce atm

Not a bad interview, Billie was funny, loved that he showed them round the room, hope they have visuals when they post it.  As ever, Moyles spoke too much 😁

Inviting him to the Nothing But Thieves gig was so awkward 😭 Love Billie suggesting he just instagram live it, the big old hypocrite 😂 

[jengd]

It was the offer of Moyles spare room that put him off 😂😂

There's a short little video clip of their conversation here: https://www.radiox.co.uk/artists/green-day/billie-joe-armstrong-says-dookie-took-inspiration-motley-crue/

What did he say about NBT?

[jengd]

Moyles told him NBT are playing and invited Billie over as they are touring together.  Said he would get Billie tickets and when Billie said "flight" Moyles said no, but Billie could have his spare room.  The whole thing was just a joke and Billie said they would just need to livestream it like all the kids do.

[stories and songs]

The audio for this interview and the Kerrang interview are both on Green Day Inc.‘s insta, fyi!

[pacejunkie punk]

Billie shared a photo of covid Ernie in the straitjacket earlier that toy is so cute I wonder whether someone gifted it to them.  Also liked hearing about his football scarf collection and that he goes on eBay looking for old ones. He’s such a collector when he gets into something 

[stories and songs]

Things I learned from the Radio X interview:

- The man loves a scarf.

- No sense of direction.

- His bedtime and wake up time. 

See, this is the good stuff.

Was it this one or the Kerrang interview (might have been Kerrang actually when they were discussing dropping in to the Isle of Wight from a helicopter) where he said that he’s deathly afraid of heights. That was a new revelation to hear. 

[stories and songs]

@pacejunkie punkThe Kerrang one! Yes, that was definitely new info to me!
