Can anyone tell me if this is the full version of Cuatro? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZSF5z9KMwQ

Yes it is

Bit of a random question but mike graduated high school and has a diploma, and tre dropped out and got his GED, so does that mean billie doesn't have any type of diploma?

Yes I think Billie never graduated.

Yeah, Billie dropped out of high school before he graduated/got a diploma, he did it when he turned 18 so it would've been a few months before he was supposed to. He's mentioned the fact that he doesn't have one in quite a few interviews over the years so pretty sure he doesn't have anything, unless he decided to get qualifications more recently and we don't know about it.

I think I remember him saying (somewhere) that he was proud of Joey for accomplishing something he never did. So I'm assume from that, that he never got his GED (HS equalient) degree.

I believe on the Instagram photo of Joey's graduation day he said he was his inspiration.

Okay- question for my fellow bootleg collectors. Any of you been around long enough to know when/where/how some of the early 1989 shows surfaced? and anyone know what the most recent 1994 show to surface was? I wish there was a chronological list of when each show surfaced.

Is there an album with covers? Where did they release that?

No.

Those two? The first one was a bonus track for 21CBD and I Fought The Law was a single before American Idiot came out.

Anyone else think pulling teeth would have been a great single for dookie?

So while I was on some old Geek Stink Breath forums people are saying that in 2003 and 2006 Billie Joe had blonde hair. Is that true?

I don't know if it's real but it looks like Billie in those years:

Oh and if you want to see it moving too watch this video :lol:

He's basically had blond hair for a few months every 1-2 years from Dookie times onwards, the American Idiot era was the longest he stuck with black I think.

Maybe this for 1994 ?

In the United States. I do not know which channel though.

In the 92Y interview in 2010/2011 with Michael Mayer, Billie mentions how he has a "tenth grade education", but I also got the impression that he definitely made it to his final year of high school, based on a lot of other interviews. Course, how much he was "learning" during that time is a different question, and perhaps that's more what he was referring to.

Oh yeah he's definitely said he was in his final year when he dropped out. He said it was just after he turned 18 and that he knew he wasn't going to pass his diploma (or however you'd describe it) anyway so the best decision was just to quit and focus on what he wanted to do, music.

He didn't have enough credits.

I was in a record store the other day and seen a copy of Bullet In A Bible with a different cover it was just the guy being struck by a lightning bolt and Billie Joe was not on the cover. Everything else appeared normal on it. Does anyone know why the cover was different? I haven't seen any other copies like it.
