The Longshot - The Last Time - Live in San Francisco

The Longshot - The Last Time - San Francisco, Live, 4-17-18, 1st row, Thee Parkside. Billie Joe: Stop! Are you guys ready to dance or what? lol My name is Diesel… :P
Other Tidbits:
The band performed their ‘first official ish show’ at Thee Parkside, a bar and music venue which has a capacity of only ~100 people. Although Billie Joe Armstrong introduced the band to the fans with joke names, The Longshot band members were Jeff Matika (bass), Kevin Preston (guitar) and David S. Field (drums).
They also sold their new 7" vinyl EP in addition to some new t-shirts. After the show, everyone hung out with the fans to sign autographs and take pictures and after the sound check, Billie Joe took a picture with me, which was very nice. Mack Narragon and Bill Schneider also autographed my setlist, and while talking to Mack, he said that their album is still in the mixing stage, which was nice to hear. Dead Sound also opened for the first Coverups show in Albany.
After San Francisco, the band is set to perform in Costa Mesa at The Wayfarer and The Redwood Bar in LA later this month in April. Similar to The Coverups shows, all their performances will be held at very small venues.
Many of the fans recognized each other from previous Green Day and Coverups concerts. However, because the Thee Parkside could only allow in fans 21 years old and over, some fans could not make it.
During Dead Sound’s opening set, Bill Schneider introduced themselves as ‘The Longshot’, and in return, Billie Joe introduced themselves as ‘Dead Sound’. “Take that Bill!” lol

[@yeOldeThorne]

Billie Joe Armstrong, the eternal legend He will be missed when he leaves the stage for the last time

[@jbclaussner9936]

After hearing this tune for the first time , I realized how alternative rock and 60’s pop are exactly the same. I always loved alternative rock but never thought of combining the 2 together. It’s all about influence.
