A singer in Liverpool received an unexpected visitor during his performance.

On Tuesday, January 7, Billie Joe Armstrong watched Callum McMorran perform Green Day’s hit “Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)” at the Cavern Club in Liverpool.

As McMorran played the 1997 classic on acoustic guitar, footage from the venue showed the Green Day singer also recording the performance on his phone in an Instagram post.

“Imagine performing @greenday to Billie Joe Armstrong… Well our resident @callummcmorran has hit the front stage at The Cavern Club. 🤩” the venue captioned the clip.

McMorran also shared a snap of the moment on Instagram after the gig, captioning the post: “Cool moment tonight 😎 🎸.”

Over the video, he wrote, “When you play a Green Day Song… to the guy who wrote it.”

Cavern Club also shared a post-show photo of the “Holiday” musician posing next to a red phone booth on their Instagram page.

“When rock legends come to visit. 🎸🤩 Billie Joe Armstrong at The Cavern Club. ❤️ 🎸✨,” reads the post’s title on the site.

“Good Riddance (“Time of Your Life”) was on Green Day’s fifth album Nimrod. Many years earlier, Armstrong had written a song about his own frustration with an ex-girlfriend who had left for Ecuador.

The brooding, ballad-like song reached No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Located on Matthew Street in Liverpool, the Cavern Club was a hallmark of the Beatles’ early career. The band played the venue nearly 300 times between 1961 and 1963 — also when their careers were exploding.
