Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong joins London covers band in pub
Imagine belting out a cover of a Song - Only to be joined by The Lead singer of the original on-stage.
Well, That 's exactly What Happened to Borderline Toxic .
They were performing Basket Case by Green Day in a London pub when The Band 's frontman Billie Joe Armstrong made an unexpected appearance.
It's unclear why Billie Joe was having a drink at Slim Jim 's Liquor Store in Islington, but it definitely brought The House down.
" Eleven-year-old me panicked, " lead singer Kerry Glass tells BBC Newsbeat, after the weekend's performance.
" I think I did three circles just running around The Stage until he was like, 'Come on, sing with me'. "
Videos posted online, including one on Green Day 's own YouTube channel, show Kerry running to the side of The Stage as Billie Joe joins The Band .
Billie can then be seen launching into The Song - from The Band 's breakout album Dookie - before Kerry eventually gets on the mic with him.
" It took a minute to settle, " says Kerry.
" And Then I was like, 'You know, I'm going to enjoy every single second of this'. "

So when one of her idols got On Stage with her it was a big moment.
" I used to sit in my bedroom and listen to all their albums. So I've got zero chill over this. This is amazing, " she says.
Kerry says she put her phone away on The Night so she could properly experience The Moment .
" Honestly, I started getting a bit overwhelmed, " she says.
" I had to just put my phone behind The Bar and I was like, 'I just want to enjoy this moment. I don't want to look at it. I'll deal with it tomorrow. '
" I got about Three Hours ' sleep. "
But she says she's been on her " phone ever since" Green Day posted a clip of The Performance on their socials.
" The nicest part is people That went to school with and people That used to go to rock clubs when we were younger have got In Touch and been like: 'Oh My God , Kerry, That 's amazing'.
" That 's been the nicest thing. "
No-one seems quite sure why Billie Joe popped up in a small London music Venue - although he in protest against changes to US abortion laws Last Year .
After his cameo Borderline Toxic - who have been played on Radio 1 - continued to play one of their original songs.
" Then we had to follow up with an original Song after That - it was wicked, " Kerry says.
" I was like: 'Thanks for warming it up Billie Joe'. "
