16-Year-Old Billie Joe Armstrong Performing In A Backyard, Pre-Green Day

Green Day fans are losing their minds over a newly-uncovered clip of a 16-year-old Billie Joe Armstrong performing in his bandmate's backyard.

In the video, a teenage Armstrong fronts the band Desecrated Youth, performing on the back porch of his bandmate's house circa 1987.

The clip was taken from the 2018 documentary Turn It Around: The Story Of East Bay Punk, but it recently popped up on Youtube, making it even easier for Green Day fans to find it.

You can check out the full documentary on DVD and streaming services here.
