Blind Items Revealed

March 15, 2014

This A list band made a recent surprise appearance. The supposedly sober singer of the band was anything but. Hopefully they are not planning on touring soon because he won't live through it.

Billie Joe Armstrong/Green Day

  6. That's a big thing too--they and The Offspring were essentially punk bands--now both groups are in their 40s--too old for that now.

    1. They actually got sued by a smaller band for stealing a song. The smaller band got a BIG payout.

    2. I know. Offspring and FOB both stole from a buncha hardcore bands

    3. Offspring's first couple albums were heavily ripped off from local OC bands, one in particular.. That's why their newer albums sounds so different from older shit they "wrote"

    4. I meant green day got sued. By a Minneapolis band.

    6. It's one of those secrets around town that's not supposed to be talked about.

    7. That's right! The story was that American idiot was written entirely within a couple days because the original album got stolen from the studio etc
      D4 got the settlement from GD but Jawbreaker was also ripped off in the AI album. Thanks unknown

    8. No prob lady. Let's just say someone has a nice cabin in Minnesota now after the payout.

    I'm calling bullshit. I know one of their guitarists and he said he's been doing well being sober and employs sober coaches.

  10. Offspring write their own songs--they just steal melodies.

    ReplyDelete
  11. The Offspring only have the one song, played 40 different ways, gawd luv em. So, not grand larceny anyway

  12. Sobriety is hard y'all....

  13. I really hope he can get and keep his shit together. He is a really talented guy.

  14. The Ramones were probably the Offspring's mentors for songwriting and melody making :)

    ReplyDelete
  15. Sandyboo do not take The Ramones name in vain! Offspring are no where near their talent. Sad they never saw the fame they were deserving of.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Sherry, amen. I've got The Ramones on right now!

    ReplyDelete
  17. I love The Ramones they grew up in my neighborhood and the Bell Brothers went to my HS

  18. This makes me sad - Green Day was my life back in the day

  19. I never knew he was supposed to be sober. Last week, I listened to the entire Dookie album and I loved it just as much as I ever did. One of the best albums in rock history.

  20. Went to a GD show a few yrs back and the suite beside us had been rented out for a 9 year old boys bday party. First thing out of Billy's mouth was fuck! That mom flipped out the entire show. She was on pins and needles... He said every curse word there is. Those 9 yo boys were so excited! So funny!

  21. Maybe he can play more music with his son and keep his demons under better control.....

  22. Oh no! I hope this isn't true.

    One of my favourite concerts was them in Dublin's SFX back in '97. They were not prepared for the undercurrent of anarchy found in an Irish audience ;)
