The Fox Theater in Oakland hosted the annual "Notes & Words" benefit concert in support of UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital. A highlight of the evening was the performance by The Coverups, the side project featuring Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong, Jason White, Bill Schneider, and Chris Dugan. The band performed a high-energy set of rock classics, contributing to the event's fundraising efforts for pediatric healthcare.

Billie Joe with Eli at Notes & Words benefit event.
Eli interviewed #billiejoearmstrong and he was truly an incredible person! He made Eli feel comfortable and even autographed his guitar! Eli got to share and learn from Billie and bring attention to the amazing efforts of @ucsfchildrens while highlighting his journey with #chd and child life!

A truly unforgettable moment from the Notes & Words benefit! ❤️ Billie Joe Armstrong with this inspiring little guy talking about his journey into music and all.
It’s amazing to see how Billie Joe continues to use his platform to support the UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital and kids fighting Congenital Heart Defects.
Hey little one, you’re a legend! 🎤👏
