Yes! Can believe it and do believe it! Saw them in concert twice in july and they kicked ass!

He is awesome. I saw him a couple of years ago and got some pics of him with his shirt off

^^Wow, great pics... here are some of mine from the concert in Munich:













and Altusried (near Kempten):

Excellent! I wanna see him again because when I went the place was filled with really irritating 40 year old men in suits getting twatted off their skulls and elbowing people half their size in the face - they were obviously frustrated former Punks pretending they were 18 again. I had to move back in the end to avoid it.

Getting "twatted off [your] skull[s]", elbowing people half your size in the face, dressing inappropriately, being irritating, and NOT acting your age is WHAT THE FUCK ROCK AND ROLL IS ABOUT in the first place. Glad to know that it's alive and well!! You should look into scoring some symphony tickets - it sounds like an atmosphere that would be more up your alley.

good lord billy is still fine as hell. i'd hit it yo!

those new tracks he put on the new greatest hits collection are awesome!

seriously, Billy id one underrated rocker.

Also, whiplash smile is one of my all time favorite albums, made even better because steve stevens got his pal Harold Faltermeyer to do all the synth work on it, bloody awesome stuff!

can't wait for the new album, if its anything like these new tracks it should be awesome.

devil's playground was awesome, but didn't get enough attention.
its time for more IDOL, and less of these young pretenders!

I dug his last album. It really brought that classic Idol flavour whilst incorporating a few more modern touches. World Comin' Down is a song I use to get myself up and running again when I'm feeling flat. I didn't know he had a new best of out, I'll have to check the new tracks. I wasn't much interested in that christmas album he put out, seemed like a bandwagon move even though I know he can croon. I'll be looking forward to any new albums he puts out, I just hope hi got something left in the tank after Devil's Playground.
