Does anyone know what the significance of the Virgin Mary sticker on Billie Joe's guitar named "Blacky"? I put the same one on my guitar, so I feel like I should know xD

I don't know, but my opinion is that he's actually some kind of Catholic, so he put sticker on it. But my main opinion is that is just a meaningless sticker.

Either a meaningless stricker as Working Class Hero said, or maybe there is a link with Foxboro Hot Tubs' Mother Mary. That's my guess.

So I was playing GD: Rock Band and I noticed that the vocals were different. They sounded more powerful or remixed and stood out over the guitar. Was this a remix for the game? And where can I download these versions?

I never really thought about it, and there's no official word, but from what I remember from listening to the multitracks there are definitely some differences. There might be some compression going on or something.

Also the multitracks are available for download but we're not allowed to post them.

In Having a Blast, you can hear a "oy" in the beginning with the multi-tracks, as I have found. So there are some differences, yes

And of course Soundcloud is gonna take that down, those assworshippers

Also in Sassafras Roots at the end of one of the lines Mike goes "time... hehe time" which I can't even kind of hear in the album.

You can just barely hear it only if you know it's there when you add in the other multi tracks, but in itunes you can't hear it at all. That might be due to compression issues. But Having a Blast, the oy is clear as day, and there's no way that was drowned out due to compression. It's pretty prominent

I thought that Billie was opposed to religion.

I like the Mother Mary idea.

Billie's religion confuses me. He talks about praying and I've seen pictures of his car with rosary beads on the mirror. Yet he talks against religion. Idk.

He's always been interested by the concept of religion and the ideas related to that, although he's never really stated his belief in an official religion. Mother Mary, East Jesus Nowhere, Church on Sunday, etc...

Does anybody else notice that the wristband that Billie Joe wore on tour in Pittsburgh, Pa this year may be like a good luck thing that he keeps on liking to wear!??

Will 99 Revolutions be a single? And will there be any other singles?

I think it's separate things. When it comes to the church/organized religion he clearly has a lot of objections to it and is happy to say so. But that doesn't mean he can't personally believe there is or might be a god, as far as that goes he's said he's agnostic and he always gives that impression when he gets asked about it.

But I don't think the Mary sticker, rosaries etc and religious language he uses in lyrics are really related to either his personal beliefs or what he thinks of organized religion at all - I think he just likes the imagery. He's said he's always been into collecting religious symbols and stuff and that he has a "fetish for Christianity", and around Nimrod times he posted a photo from his house on GD.com that showed he had a display table with a load of random religious stuff on it along with plastic skulls and dolls :lol:. I don't think that has anything to do with any kind of belief, it's just a case of liking the imagery of it and finding it interesting.

So what's the story behind the picture of Tre kissing Adie? I know the pic can't be posted, but it's a professional picture, and it leaked somehow

Is it the one from the massive set of black and white photos taken at Billie's 40th birthday party? There's photos of pretty much everyone kissing everyone from there :lol:, there was a camera set up and Billie and all his family and friends were posing with and kissing each other in front of it. It was just a jokey thing they did for the camera, nothing scandalous.

And yeah all the photos got posted online (on the photographer's site I think) by accident and a lot of people saw/saved them before they realized and removed them, that's how they leaked.
