According to Deadline, the movie centers around Armstrong’s character who is a 40 year old ex-punk rocker who’s band went on an “indefinite hiatus” 10 years ago and is now struggling with reality.

In the film, Armstrong’s wife and daughter forget his 40th birthday so his brother gives him money to throw a huge party in a fancy NYC hotel. At the party, Armstrong’s punk past clashes with his middle-aged reality as he encounters crazy former bandmates. He also runs into an old-flame-turned-manager who offers him a chance to revive his stalled career.

Geezer will make it’s debut at the Tribeca Film Festival in April. Last year, Billie was first bit by the acting bug in a movie called “Like Sunday, Like Rain” which is currently streaming on Netflix.
