One of the many reasons I love Billie Joe is his fucking awesome speeches:
Reading Festival, 25.08.13, stay the night: “This is no fucking party right now, this is a fucking festival man. And not just any festival, the greatest festival in the whole world might I add. READING! You know when I first started listening to punk rock music I used to get my fucking ass kicked for it. I was known as a fucking freak. But now, I’m amongst many many freaks here tonight.”
Emirates, 01.07.13, Letterbomb; “This is it, this is your night, this is our night, we’re all together. And in the fucking world it’s fucking chaos, there’s a lot of shit going on, it’s fucking confusing. It makes you wanna fucking hate, it makes you wanna fucking bleed, all of this shit. Not here, ‘cause right now, this is our moment and this is fucking joy. THIS IS JOY. *takes camera off camera man and pans audience*. Now this is what my view looks like! Now this, this is joy!”
