Billie Joe Armstrong has basically looked the same for most of his life as evident by a video he shared on his Instagram.

Embedded below, the video shows a very young Billie Joe rocking out on stage with his beloved Stratocaster "Blue."

"Dear blue. You’ve always been true," wrote Billie Joe in the video's caption. "That’s my brother Dave playin' drums. My family everywhere else.. song- 'Johnny B Goode.'"

Since this video, "Blue" has been heavily graffitied with various stickers and drawings, but it certainly is cool that "Blue" has been with Billie Joe for so long.
