What is SYT? (nevermind, I figured it out)

This was a suggested post on Facebook 😂

IMO if i had to trade tracks... Troublemaker to Dos Baby Eyes to Tre (its really hard to put Dos tracks on the other 2 albums due to its theming) 8th Avenue to UNO (make Stay The Night and 8th Avenue transition into each other) i would also make SYT a hidden track and make Brutal Love the closer of Tre, with 99 Revolutions being the opener instead

I completely agree with this, well, rather than the Lazy Bones on Tre. The other two songs seriously have the vibe of Dos and Uno, especially Troublemaker since Dos is kind of billie's horny era loll.

I am looking at who reacted the "love" emoji on this post and of course it is us fangirls. We can look at him all day, right ladies? @Mollyluna

Yeah he deactivated his instagram account. He's back now so no need to panic hehe

Reading guns and ammo could be a reference to that Luigi guy, right? Didn't they read the words he put on bullets? I'm sure Billie had a lot of thoughts on that whole situation but didn't want to talk about it specifically so....word salad!

I agree with this statement for the most part, the only thing is that I think Troublemaker should be on Dos! Lazy Bones on Tre! and Missing You on Uno!

Coachella Week 2's setlist will include Dilemma.

Yeah, I've got no problem with it (obviously). They fuckin rocked as they always do, and I love to see them conquer everything they want. I just want everyone to love them as much as I do, so the idea of a *potentially* lukewarm crowd makes me squirm a bit.

Yeah I knew about the mic (which is why I probably should've fully guessed about the ear pieces!). I can just imagine them cracking jokes into it from time to time.

I spoke too soon. OEB has now been played twice today on that same radio station I mentioned in my previous post. This could be good news for the song, because I believe the station is owned by iHeart Radio, so it probably means a lot more stations also started playing it recently

The three Saviors album version releases, follow a similar pattern to AI, if I remember correctly. The Japanese AI release had a bonus track, and the digital deluxe release with 3 additional new tracks. Favorite Son, Too Much Too Soon, Governator, and Shoplifter, respectively. Imho, I thought the deluxe edition then was awesome and a great addition to the original. So with Fever added, I'm really excited about deluxe version. If the others are as good as SILB, this should be epic. GD, your spoiling us, again.

I would've preferred an acoustic version of fancy sauce over father to a son

The nice thing about in ear monitors is each one is customized for each player so they get the mix that suits them best and can hear what they need to. They can also communicate with each other on stage through the in ears via one microphone that you can sometimes see set back near the drum kit. Billie can speak in that one to call an audible or make a comment and the other players can hear him but the audience can't.

Yes because it's something they haven't done that they can check off their list and I think it matters to them that they do it their way and not change their performance to match what others do, but to present themselves authentically as a way of saying, this is us, this is our show and this is what we do and we do it very very well.

This might be the best combination of words I have read this year

I'm very appreciative of the tight shirts Billie has been wearing lately.

nimrod era for sure. i just love everything about the era

We had a similar experience at a show with the Donots (that German punk band that opened for Green Day last summer in Berlin and Hamburg): the band‘s tech guy accidentally exchanged the in-ears of the singer and the guitarist. The result was endearingly chaotic…😂 But I can imagine that Billie can cope with such a situation, no problem…

Awesome, thanks both. I thought there was probably some function other than protection, but just wanted to check.

Exactly. It also keeps out distracting background noise. Back in July 2023, in the beautiful Quebec City, the band played live first song from Saviors, 1981. Unfortunately, technical issues caused Billie Joe's ear device to temporarily lose contact with other band's instruments. Risking losing his place in song along with timing. You can see Billie Joe touching his ear part way through. But, like the true professional he is, there's no panic, the connection is soon restored, and he keeps pace and carries on. That's what makes live music so unique and special, especially when it's GD.

14 April On this day in 2012, Green Day inducted Guns 'n' Roses into the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame. They also performed Letterbomb. More photos: On 14 April 2010, Green Day performed four songs on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. More photos: On 14 April 2010, Green Day played the Fox Theatre in Oakland on the 21st Century Breakdown Tour. They played the album in full again. The show was partially filmed and videos can still be found on YouTube. If you only watch one, I personally think this is proof that Christian's Inferno should replace St. Jimmy for at least a few shows. I used to watch the knock-off DVD every other day after school. Also had a shirt from the show (from eBay) that I wore to death. More photos: On 14 April 1991, Green Day played Coconut Teaszer in Hollywood, CA. On 14 April 1989, Green Day played Psycospecific in San Francisco, CA.

As I understand it, such an ear-in helps a musician to hear his own voice and instrument better while the other instruments are in the background. Some kind of filter I guess…
