  1. Green Day mentioned Kylie, our pop princess should take a leaf out of Green Day’s book http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/entertainment/sydney-confidential/kylie-our-pop-princess-should-take-a-leaf-out-of-green-days-book/story-fni0cvc9-1226839241052

  2. The original part of Brutal Love is the best bit. That ending melody is one of the best things they've ever done.

  5. Last Night On Earth is the best vocal effort we've heard from Billie, by far. The runs so beautifully intertwine with the falsetto. The way he climbs in to those big notes. Fantastic. As for the lyrics, they are pretty good, especially by love song standards.

  6. So here's an unpopular opinion: I like the countdown at the end of Nuclear Family.

  8. If Brutal Love was an original melody it would rank fairly high up there, say top 30 (yeah that's high) but outside of that nothing gets up there from the trilogy. And Stay The Night has grown on me. As has DRB, which is just a good time. Quite frankly it is the best instrumental work of the trilogy.

  10. Back to the Edgar Alan Poe conversation, he's taught in most American high schools and is an American literary icon. He's hardly an unknown scholar in the U.S.

  14. So apparently this is unpopular: I really like "Horseshoes and Handgrenades". Is it in the top five on 21CBD? Of course not (that's the title track, EJN, VLG?, RHS and The Static Age), but it has a great riff (even though it was ripped off from someone else, as Not Anyone has demonstrated), packs a pretty big punch, and apart from the computerized scream in the bridge has a pretty great vocal performance form BJA.

  15. Crazy people! Another apparently unpopular opinion: I quite like Nice Guys Finish Last

  16. I sometimes skip it too. It's good enough but like you say it's nothing special, whereas Hitchin A Ride is extremely fabulous so sometimes I don't have the patience to wait for it. It is literally my favourite thing they've ever done in a song, gives me chills. The first time he goes "how low..." is the best moment ever! Who the hell doesn't like that?!

  17. Yeah, I think this sometimes, too.... But remember, Billie Joe said in RS last year that he didn't consider it as a failure. Even if yes, I think they were a bit deceived though.. But when I see all thes real fans during the 99revolutions tour, with banners and signs of ''we're proud of you'', and that's what matters Ramdom thought, speaking of which, I freaking love this interview.

  18. Getting back to things Tom and I can actually agree on, for some reason I decided to listen to Tre tonight, and "The Forgotten" is even more cringe-worthy than I remember. But I liked "8th Avenue Serenade" and "Drama Queen" marginally better. Actually, now that I think of it, "Brutal Love" probably cracks my top forty.

  19. I actually prefer the opening, but now I just sound like I'm deliberately being contrary tonight even though I'm really not.

  20. Fair enough. Something from the Trilogy cracking anyone's top ten is unfathomable to me, but then again I'm a cynical bastard at heart.

  21. I feel its very unpopular but I actually like Stray Heart. Sure you could argue its too similar to mother mary, but when I hear Stray Heart in isolation I hear this: Great bassline, pleasant crooning vocals, a swing-melody that has a great hook, and lyrics that look far better than much on the trilogy. Granted it is horrible live.

  22. That's exactly what it means. If they start doing it again later it doesn't mean they never dropped it.

  23. idk if this is actually needed, because there wasn't a whole lot of change in their shows between their two previous live CD/DVDs, particularly BIAB. The 99 Revs tour was so little about the Trilogy that I feel it would just feel like a rehashing of BIAB. I mean, I'd buy it , but I don't think it would bring anything new to the table, even for the non die-hards. If it were just the secret shows, maybe, but let's be real, they'd probably just pick a huge festival show from last year.

  25. There's something quite special about Billie's palm muting. He locks in so tightly with Mike and Tre, and his dynamics are so consistent, that it's actually incredibly difficult to replicate. It's a very underrated skill, because in theory it's so simple.

  28. The only way it could possibly work would be to do a The Wall type thing—no dialogue, no singing. Just play the album front to back with quality actors doing their best to channel emotion without saying anything. And look how well that worked for the "Jesus of Suburbia" video.

  33. Ignore me. When I posted yesterday, it had been a very long, bad day. But thanks for the kind words. And yeah, I'm the one who posted the pix of Billie Joe from the iHeart show. You know, those pix. Yes, that was my Tumblr, but I deleted it a couple months ago. (I have no idea why those posts are on there now; I certainly didn't post them. I'm not on Tumblr at all anymore.) One fandom got into some trouble regarding copyrighted photos. A couple fansites were "caught" for copyright infringement and had to pay hefty fines to a professional photographer b/c they used his pictures on their sites. One of these fansites removed their photo gallery entirely. I decided it was best to delete my Tumblr. One of the reasons I like the picture threads on GDC is b/c they're protected - you have to be a member to see them so there's (a little) more security. And now, a pic of the birthday boy:
