Billie Joe Armstrong Shares Unearthed ‘I Get Around' Cover in Tribute to Brian Wilson
Billie Joe Armstrong has paid tribute to Brian Wilson by sharing a cover of the Beach Boys' 1964 classic 'I Get Around.' The Green Day guitarist and vocalist shared his rendition of the song on Instagram on Wednesday (June 12), hours after the news of Wilson's passing broke. More from Billboard Woman Arrested for Attempted Break-In at BTS Jung Kook's Residence on the Day of His Military Discharge Carín León Is Ready to Prove He's The 'Missing Link' Between Regional Mexican and Country Music The Grammys Add New Country Category for 2026 'Thank you Brian Wilson,' Armstrong wrote. 'I recorded a cover of 'I Get Around' a few years ago.. never got to share it. One of my all time favorite songs ever.' Originally released in May 1964 as the sole single from the Beach Boys' sixth album, All Summer Long, 'I Get Around' would become the group's first song to reach No. 1 on the Hot 100, a feat they would achieve twice more in the '60s – thanks to 'Help Me, Rhonda' and 'Good Vibrations' – and once in 1988 by way of 'Kokomo.' Armstrong's rendition of 'I Get Around' isn't exactly a left-field choice for the musician, especially given the influence that many bands of the pop-punk genre have taken from the Beach Boys' approach to music and songwriting. While Green Day's 2009 track 'Last of the American Girls' was noted as containing harmonies reminiscent of the Beach Boys, Wilson himself showed an ignorance toward the punk genre in 2015. 'I never went for that. I never went for the fast kind of music,' he told The Guardian. Wilson passed away on June 11 at the age of 82, with his death inspiring countless tributes from musicians around the world. In the same vein as Armstrong, Sting honored Wilson's legacy by performing a live rendition of 1966's 'God Only Knows.' 'Today, one of my heroes died, Brian Wilson from the Beach Boys,' Sting said during the encore of his Wednesday night concert in Rostock, Germany. 'So I want to sing a song that I love.' Both Sting and Wilson had previously performed the same song together during a 2008 concert at Carnegie Hall.

Kid Rock seeks distance from Nashville restaurant after report of ICE raid dodge
Kid Rock says he doesn't 'have anything to do' with the daily operations at a restaurant bearing his name after the Nashville dining spot was reportedly one of several places that recently closed its kitchen to avoid U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. 'Clearly I do not have anything to do with day to day operations at my Honky Tonk – but it's good click bait, I get it,' the 'All Summer Long' singer wrote to his more than 1.2 million followers on X on Monday. 'That being said I 100 percent support getting illegal criminals out of our country no matter where they are,' he added. The social media post, which linked to a Daily Mail story, came in response to a recent report from the Nashville Scene. 'At the instruction of managers, restaurant employees without legal citizenship status left the premises at… Kid Rock's Big Ass Honky Tonk Rock N' Roll Steakhouse during a primetime rush on Saturday night to avoid detention by ICE agents,' the local news outlet reported last week. 'Locations, already struggling to provide full service, suffered through at least Sunday due to fears from employees who did not want to risk arrest by returning to work,' it added. A representative for the restaurant could not be reached for comment. Kid Rock, whose real name is Robert Ritchie, has been one of President Trump's most ardent celebrity supporters. He performed at the Republican National Convention last year and appeared alongside Trump in the Oval Office in March as the president signed an executive order aimed at curbing ticket scalping. 'I also like President Trump want to speed up the process of getting GREAT immigrants into our country – LEGALLY!' the 54-year-old musician said. Kid Rock's Nashville restaurant — which bills itself as the 'biggest and baddest new honky tonk' — opened in 2018. In a news release last week, ICE's New Orleans field office said it arrested 196 'criminal illegal aliens' as part of a 'weeklong targeted enforcement operation' across the greater Nashville area.
