His birthday is coming up in October and he says it’s “crazy” that it’s actually happening. Not the turning another year older, but that Billy Idol will finally by playing his birthday party.

Billy Idol is slated to play a full-band concert for Michael Henrichson’s birthday in Seattle.

Henrichson has been trying to get Billy Idol to play is birthday for the past two years. It’s how he’s made name for himself in Seattle – a name that would bring the 80s icon to the city and hopefully land him a full-time gig in the music business.

Occasionally people will ask him ‘Are you the Billy Idol guy? With the birthday thing?’

Henrichson told Dori, “I think I’ve effectively taken on the nickname, ‘The Billy Idol Guy.'”

You can join in the festivities at the birthday party on October 26 at Showbox SODO. Tickets are on sale now.
