LONDON, UK: Courtney Love got fans excited after she performed alongside Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong in London.

The singer reportedly joined The Coverups at the 600-capacity venue The Garage on Tuesday, February 27.



 

Courtney Love cheered on by audience

Courtney Love was performing on the stage with the 52-year-old Green Day frontman when she teased the fans with a reunion with her band 'Hole'.

“Later, I’ll be back in Hole,” Love said while being recorded by a fan as she got grooved before leaving the stage.

Another video showed Armstrong saying, “I told you it was going to be a special night,” reports People.

Love introduced herself on stage. “My name is Courtney Love. You may not remember me,” said the legend who was wearing a long floral-printed dress.

"I’ve been living in a cave in Birmingham for about nine years. We’ll give this a f---ing try, right?” she asked.



 

Who else joined Billie Joe Armstrong in London?

Armstrong and his bandmates Mike Dirnt, Greg Schneider and members of the Green Day touring team with bandmate Jason White, tour manager Bill Schneider and audio engineer Chris Dugan joined Love for the three songs she performed.

“Grandma did not have her teleprompter,” Love said and the audience didn’t bother, shouting her name. “I will take it,” she added.

Hole disbanded over two decades ago in 2002 and didn’t last after making a comeback later.

Most recently in 2021, Love told Vogue that “a proper Hole reunion” will “absolutely not” happen.

“And you guys have gotta get over it. Our old manager Peter Mensch calls once a year to ask about a reunion: ‘Hey, just doing my thing I do every year with you and Jimmy Page [of Led Zeppelin].’ And I’m so honored to be in that company, but it’s just not gonna happen," Love said.

She continued, “We’re all really good friends and Melissa and I are especially close — we talk every day. But Eric is kinda off-the-grid right now — I think he’s in Japan literally becoming a monk. I’m not even kidding. Melissa, Patty, and I think he’s become a monk or something on that level of asceticism.”
