Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day, Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy and Rivers Cuomo of Weezer are teaming up!
The three rock stars joined Zane Lowe in-studio on Apple Music’s Beats 1 to discuss The Hella Mega Tour, inspired from the Monsters of Rock Tour, on Tuesday (September 10).
Each band released a new song on the same day: Billie Joe revealed their new track “Father of All” is the title track of their 26 minute long new album, Father of All Motherf**kers, due in February. Rivers talked about their new song “The End of the Game,” explaining that Weezer‘s new album Van Weezer will come out in the Spring, and Pete said their new song ‘Dear Future (Hands Up)” featuring Wyclef Jean] will be part of their first “Best Of…” album.
“I remember, in the ’90s, there was this one summer, and Guns and Roses, Metallica went on the stadium tour and my parents didn’t let me go to it. And I feel trapped in that forever and we wanted to…you want to recreate that memory,” Pete explained.
“I think this tour represents counter-programming, I think that the world is moving in one direction in an obvious way, or whatever. I think that this tour represents counter-programming to that and it’s awesome to take part in that and be a small part of it.”
