More quotes by Billie Joe Armstrong
Just because you sing songs about a certain feeling doesn't mean you have to go feeling that way forever. You can sing about that for the rest of your life, but that doesn't mean things aren't going to change in your own life.
Billie Joe Armstrong
I would definitely say the Oakland Raiders are the punk rock band of football.
Billie Joe Armstrong
The thing about punk is that there are purists. Once you start going outside of that, they don't think what you're doing is punk rock.

Billie Joe Armstrong
Woodstock was about the closest thing to anarchy I've ever seen in my whole life, and I didn't like it.
Billie Joe Armstrong
The record [American Idiot ] felt special to us, when we recorded it, with all of the artwork and the concept behind it and it being a rock opera, but we didn't really know where it was going to go. It's like I always say, you just follow the music. Not only was American Idiot a special moment for us, but it also led to Ordinary World, too.
Billie Joe Armstrong
I think it's your own choice if you turn from an angry young man to a bitter, old bastard.
Billie Joe Armstrong
I'm not going to conform to some consumer need.
Billie Joe Armstrong
My brother David was a great athlete and I knew there was no way I could live up to that.
Billie Joe Armstrong
Pretty and demented at the same time, like me.
Billie Joe Armstrong
I know I'm always going to be a musician, for the rest of my life. That's for sure. It's about how you balance between being a musician and being a parent, and making it intertwined.
Billie Joe Armstrong
Set lists are tough because you come up with this structure of how the songs are going to go from one to the next, but at the same time, you have to be spontaneous and take requests and change the set list at the drop of a hat.
Billie Joe Armstrong
