AWESOME AS FUCK is the shit. fuckin awesome.
Yeah apparently they demoed like 18 songs while being on tour in support of 21CB.UltraKolby wrote:I really like Green Day, no matte what style of music they, old or new. My favorite album is 'Warning' and my favorite songs are Basket Case, Holiday, and Minority.
I heard that they already have all the songs for the next album written, they just need to record them but there waiting for the right time to do that.
Nice!! I heard is was about 30 but yeah. The sad part is that the album will probably come out late next yearHentaiman wrote:Yeah apparently they demoed like 18 songs while being on tour in support of 21CB.UltraKolby wrote:I really like Green Day, no matte what style of music they, old or new.

they need the touring musicians, without them billie can't entertain the crowdEmil wrote:I wish they would ditch all their touring musicans and just be the three of them.
What's wrong with tht touring musicians? They only contribute to the sound and just stand there looking pretty and don't say anything! Emil's right, it wouldn't be as good without all the crazy running around and ..err...weird things haha! An they wouldn't be able to play songs to their full glory wihtout an extra guitarist/pianist/other...They are ESSENTIALLY "just the three of them"...Still Waiting wrote:they need the touring musicians, without them billie can't entertain the crowdEmil wrote:I wish they would ditch all their touring musicans and just be the three of them.

I'm pretty much agreeing with everything you're saying haha, American Idiot was the first album I ever bought, and it's good! People just want to sound cool, as if they're too good for bands that lots of people like, and are "mainstream". These people irritate me. 21CB is a little slow for me, but there's some really great stuff on there too.Zell1010 wrote:Well I wouldn't say they stand there looking prettyPyroAMYac wrote:What's wrong with tht touring musicians?

But yeah, you're right. Without them, Billie Joe would not be able to be as good a frontman as he is now. Having seen them twice in the UK, I can safely say he's one of the best, if not the best, frontman of a band I've seen (and I've seen a lot of bands). They sound excellent live, even in stadiums (I was there at Wembley Stadium last year)
I'm sort of similar when it comes to listening to the records. I used to be really into them. However, the Sums have overtaken them in terms of my last.fm count.The 5 year wait between AI and 21CB was too long imo with all the touring they did. Sometimes when I've listened to 21CB I've been like "Drop the concept record stuff", but AI really is a masterpiece. I get annoyed when people say "new Green Day sucks, we want the old Green Day" or anything post Warning is awful without a coherent argument. People also fail to realise that people grow up (the same goes for Sum 41, but oddly not for Blink 182), so they aren't going to sing songs about masturbation anymore.
There aren't many bands I would put above them out there at the moment.
Front row for the 2nd right at Birmingham. Got 2 of Mike's picks and got sprayed in the face with water by Billie Joe.

I'm personally glad that they have slightly more mature lyrics lol, I don't mind singing along so much anymorethat's a good point though about Blink, maybe we'll see a change when their New stuff is out, after a while to grow up away...?
And also YES, Green Day have put on the best show I've seenSaw them in Sheffield Arena year and a bit ago, right near the front, GREAT. I'd like to mention King For A Day here too
Yes, yes you do!Zell1010 wrote:Front row for the 2nd right at Birmingham. Got 2 of Mike's picks and got sprayed in the face with water by Billie Joe. I win

Fuck America? NO, FUCK YOU GREENDAY!!!
