There's no way to tell for sure but it wouldn't surprise me at all. Quote

Yeah like most of them do sound like him but some are very generic and sound like they could be a random person doing it (same applies to the Mike one above). Maybe their team is chucking some extra ones in to make sure each show is covered or whatever? Or maybe someone is prodding them to tweet a certain amount/about certain stuff so it comes out generic. Like you say can't really tell for sure though, I hope not because as long as the main GD one is keeping that stuff covered it isn't necessary and just spoils it really 2 Quote

Some look like genuine Billie tweets - for example the very first one, but others don't. Maybe you hit the nail on the head with saying the team might be taking over to fill in the gaps. Quote
herewegoagain Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 I dunno. He's a weird and passionate but seemingly easily distracted dude, wouldn't put it past him to be weirdly inconsistent with grammar/stylistic choices on social media. But it is funny 1 Quote

On second thought it does say "Bring to the gigs" and "I'll put them on blue or other guitar" which isn't exactly perfect. Maybe this is just over analyzing . Could be though, very hard to tell. 1 Quote

Maybe this is just over analyzing . Could be though, very hard to tell. Yeah, that sounds like Billie language, but the puctuation and capitalization are intact It could be him though. My reasoning is that the main appeal of accounts like this is direct contact with the followers. It would lose its appeal if they found out it's not genuine, so having multiple people write one "personal" account while failing to keep same style of posts might be risky. 7 minutes ago, G-L-O-R-I-A said: I just thought he was missing words out to keep it below 140 characters.

Hero_Of_The_Hour Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 I believe Tre's tweets are also basically management tweets now too. When he initially started tweeting it was classic Tre, short, silly one line tweets like "Noice" "Totes McGoats" "Deep dish" "For realz?" However now they are generic tweets that sound identical to what would be posted on Green Day's twitter and slightly modified to appear to be posted by Tre. 1 Quote
