Elvis Costello and Billie Joe Armstrong...

[revid]

Some wonderful person (TarenFox) posted 3 videos on YouTube from the show on Friday night. The visual quality is poor, but the audio is not bad. Billie's voice sounds great after a few months of rest.

No video of "Alison", but we have them doing "Good Riddance," "Wake Me Up When September Ends," and an old EC song "Lip Service."

Elvis Costello & Billie Joe Armstrong, 19 May 2006, Atlantic City, New Jersey

(I put a slash between the two names originally. Hee.)

The little girls yelling "I love you Billie" at the end of the songs is disturbingly rude and annoying.

I didn't expect them to do any Green Day songs. I mean, it makes sense when you think about it but I thought it would be all Elvis Costello songs--what a cool surprise.

I wouldn't be surprised if those were the girls who run greendaysecrets. They said they'd do almost whatever to get Billie's attention. It really is rude and disrespectful to Elvis Costello and Billie for that matter. I can wait 'till the teenies fall for the Next Big Band.

LOL I know, where the hell are their posts about how billie wants us all to stop griping!?

those girls were serious about asking him, so I suppose we got our answer...


SURPRISE he doesn't care lol.

I was gonna go to that but I didn't have the money. Woe. Thanks for the link though :)

Thanks, Mary! Sweet to hear. They sound good together. :-)

I thought so too...I could totally see them collaborating on something...especially since Elvis loves to do collaboration projects.

Thanks, Mary! Too bad the visuals aren't better there, I'm absolutely sure that someone is going to have to mop me up from a pile of goo once I see the whole thing up close.

Billie's voice does sound great, though, and Billie's little "thank you, Mr. Costello", before Good Riddance starts? Swoonage over here! I'll just make that reason #74321 why I love that man =D

Mary, again, you're a goddess. ModestNervousAwestruck!Billie is making my head spin, and you are so right - his voice sounds wonderful, and the harmonies? Oh, be still my beating heart! Thanks for sending the vids our way!

Yep...shy, awkward, nervous Billie turns me into a puddle of goo. Every time.

Mixed emotions here. It was one thing when it was announced that only Billie was going to be there doing Costello songs, but to have him doing Green Day songs? Good Riddance was alright, since Billie is the only one that performs it in concert; but Wake Me Up...? I dunno, just felt too weird hearing not!Tre and not!Mike playing away. *shakes head*

Thanks for passing the link along though. :)

Yeah, I agree. I was thinking that Mike and Tré would probably feel really weird listening to someone else do those songs. I'm guessing VH1 made them do the Green Day songs.
