True, but I don't know what the equivalent of the USA's biggest sports night would be in your country. 😜

Holy shit, that one small and muted snippet already sounds like a vast improvement over "Father Of All..."!

And I like "Father Of All..."!!!

How does this work? Do you think they will play the song entirely or just something like a 30 seconds/1 minute clip?

Cool! 2 years partnership, that’s awesome! And it’s not bulletproof backpack (Joan jett’s sampling), but a new song called “Ready, Fire, Aim”! 

Maybe this should be the “Ready, Fire, Aim” thread then, or we should have one :)

For the person in the other thread that wondered if this was the song with the Joan Jett sample, if it is that was I believe used for Bulletproof Backpack and the lyrics “ready, aim, fire” would certainly fit with that so this could be our second single.

Hmm..... do I make a trek to STL for the All Star Game for my b-day weekend???

Per article above:

'The band will also perform at the All-Star Game in St. Louis in late January, and new singles from its album will be released on ”Wednesday Night Hockey.”'

But the NBC article says the track name for the song used in the promotion is "Ready, Aim, Fire".

“When I first got to the league, one of the first bookings was going to be Green Day, for the opening ceremonies for the World Cup of Hockey in Toronto (in 2016),” recalled Mayer. “I have to admit, I impressed my fellow employees with that booking right off the bat.
“But one week before the event, I got a phone call that Green Day was cancelling four or five tour dates and that included our event, because one of the members of the band had fallen ill.

We all know what really happened :(
