+lost children+

Ok, I've already mentioned that my version of "American Idiot" is slightly different from the original...

JoS and St.Jimmy are not the same person and Wathshername is only a secondary character; based on the songs of the cd I thought I'd invent a past for Jos... and also for Jimmy!!

In this drawing you can see JoS and Jimmy when they were 7 years old!!

Jesus of Suburbia

When JoS was young his father, an alcoholic, beat him often, even without reason...
The mother, that was too scared to react, said nothing for long time; then, one day, he beat JoS so violently that reduced him almost dying; so her mother finally found the courage to call the police....and he was arrested.
Jos's father remained in jail a few years and when he left, he never came back at home.
The mother will always blame JoS for the abandonment of her husband...

St.Jimmy

Jimmy's parents both died in a car accident when he was only 4 years...
Jimmy ended up in an orphanage but was never adopted; he was a rebel child with many problems...the older guys were often cruel, so he quickly learned to defend itself.
Jimmy stayed at the orphanage up to 16 years, and then he ran away...

Ok, my english sucks but I hope that you have understood something XDD
