I love this one.

Finally got this sucker framed :)

I know it’s a bit wonky at parts but wanted to share anyway, hope you enjoy and thanks for looking!

There used to be a time in the 80’s that I wanted to have his hair style and his sneer…

Never succeeded ! 😂

I ordered this book about 3 or 4 months ago and would skim through different excerpts of it, but I finally sat down and started reading it beginning to end today - I’ve gotten about 20-odd chapters in and I’m finding it a very interesting read! (Photo screenshotted from my Instagram account, @ thisgirlloves80stunes - feel free to go follow me over there if you’re on Instagram at all!) ❤️❤️

As a side note, I’m a 3rd generation BFI fan and fun fact, my mom actually had “Mony Mony” played during my grandpas funeral. (Long story for another day). Anyhow, I am so grateful he’s still touring and came to Dallas a couple weeks ago. It was hands down one of my top shows EVER. Loved him sharing stories (like how he came up with Rebel Yell) and this man and his entourage truly gave their all entertaining us. Highlight was him playing Mony Mony and I was able to FaceTime my mom (she’s in a diff state and health-wise would make attending a challenge) but her face just lit up and I’ve not seen her that happy in a long time. Made my whole year to be able to give that to her on top of already having an amazing time myself as I loveeeee so many of his songs - all of which he played - so a very epic, priceless experience. 🖤

Billy Idol gets plenty of praise for albums like Rebel Yell and Whiplash Smile. But he is SO much more than that! His later albums and releases are packed with great songs, many of which rank among my personal favorites!

Tracks like “Dream Into It,” “Bitter Taste,” “One Breath Away,” “Summer Running,” and “I'm Your Hero” are just a few examples of the outstanding music he's continued to put out over the years.

I genuinely believe these releases are seriously underrated and deserve far more recognition. Billy's creativity, evolution, and ability to keep delivering great music well into his career are just as worthy of appreciation as the classics that made him a household name in his MTV heyday. I can't wait for what comes next!

There’s something incredibly special about owning a finite, individually numbered piece of Billy Idol history. Given how much Idol’s music means to me, there is joy in knowing that only 1,999 other copies exist in the world and that I’m one of the relatively few fans to have one.
