Photo taken with my hand.

Admittedly not the greatest picture, but when I encountered Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day after he gave a talk about “American Idiot” on Broadway, he was mobbed!  It was really cool of him to sign autographs for the multitudes of screaming girls that were dying to meet him.  In addition to taking this photo with me, he also autographed 4 of my precious Green Day CDs (“Dookie,” “Bullet In A Bible,” “American Idiot” and “21st Century Breakdown”).  Thanks again Billie Joe!  Some of you C-listers should take a lesson from people such as Billie Joe.  The guy can sell out stadiums across the world and he still takes the time to be nice to fans!  Now that’s a class act!  Here’s a brief video I took of Billie Joe and Michael Mayer (director of “American Idiot”) talking about the project.  I risked life and limb to bring you a brief clip, so I hope you enjoy it! The first question was “do you have any regrets?”
