Ever since I got a DSL connection, I have become BitTorrent's bitch, heart and soul. I download so much stuff that I often don't look at it right away, despite my hard drive's screams begging for mercy. Today I looked at a half-hour program about Green Day from Portuguese TV, of all places. It's mostly some 20 year old kid babbling (in Portuguese, natch) over well worn clips we've all seen a kazillion times, but there was one small piece I had not seen. It's from 1994, and it sounds like an old MTV interview. It's only 2:17 long, and while there's nothing in it of great import, it's fun just to see little 22 year old dreadlocked blond Billie.

Of course, you have to ignore the Portuguese sub-titles.


Billie Joe Interview 14 MB


And a PSA if you missed it last night: The Establishment RPG Billie/Mike arc has been updated.

But new to me.

I stumbled across this interview in stuffmagazine.com tonight. It's dated 9 Sept 04, about 2 weeks before American Idiot was released. I found a lot of it very interesting, but this last question cracked me up because I just posted in [livejournal.com profile] luthien123's journal tonight about how the boys seemed to like homoerotisism.

~*~*~*~*
You mean there’s no after-show groupie sex?

MIKE: We never plan any chaos. Swinging from the chandelier on the second floor or branding people’s asses with lighters—it’s all spontaneous.
BILLIE JOE: And it’s slightly homoerotic at the same time.
MIKE: But when we were kids, we were shits. I remember times when we would walk block after block over the hoods of cars or just roll bowling balls down the steepest streets in Seattle. We’re not idiots anymore.
BILLIE JOE: Now we just have alcohol problems.

Slightly homoerotic?

I spent way too much time that I didn't have the last couple of days on two things recommended by LJ friends:

1) Saw Brokeback Mountain. (That was only 2 hrs.)

2) Got completely sucked in to reading the Billie/Mike storylines in The Establishment RPG on JournalFen. (Many, many hours!)
