Courtney Love Joins Billie Joe Armstrong For Covers Set, Says “I’ll Be Back In Hole”

Last month, Green Day shared their new album Saviors. Tonight in London, Billie Joe Armstrong took a break from Green Day duties to perform in his cover band the Coverups at The Garage. He was joined on stage by Courtney Love for a couple songs.

Covers of the night included the Ramones, Nirvana, the Pretenders, Sex Pistols, Bryan Adams, the Clash, the Strokes, and David Bowie. Love joined them for Cheap Trick’s “He’s A Whore” and “Surrender,” as well as Tom Petty’s “Even The Losers.” Love greeted the audience by saying, “Thank you, Billie Joe. My name is Courtney Love — you may not remember me. I’ve been living in a cave in Birmingham for about nine years. We’ll give this a fucking try, right?” Love, who has a new solo album coming, added at the end, “Later, I’ll be back in Hole.”

Check out footage below.

UPDATE: Love also joined the Coverups on Friday, March 1 to sing Hole’s “Celebrity Skin.”
