Aaaaaaah. I managed to happily forget about this until today and will try to do it again, everyone who was there knows that the show was incredible, they played the longest set out of all the European shows, for god's sake! don't know why a lot of journalists dislike them.

Here are the Rock Sound screenshots (@Mara Garcia Green Day they have arrived)! The pictures are cut off because it's from my phone, but it's something! http://imgur.com/a/SL38k It's an excellent read, by the way. I cried like three times. This is getting to be a habit, Green Day.

@Mara Garcia Green Day The question about Mike being his drummer gave some indication that she hadn't done much reading up on him. There are only three names to remember!

To be honest, she needed to do more research about him, well I think but yeah, I love how excited he looked when he talked about Ringo and Paul, and about the AI movie and St. Jimmy, "Better hurry up, I'm not getting any younger" haha, and yes, so adorable

'Bridgette Quinn's 22 Minutes' with Billie Joe Armstrong video: http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2016/10/12/22-minutes-billie-joe-armstrong/ Another great interview with Billie about Ordinary World and RevRad. Not much new to learn, but I did enjoy the part where Billie reflects on performing with Paul and Ringo at the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame ceremony. Also, I continue to wonder if these journalists sitting across from him think, "Geez, this guy is kind of adorable."

First couple times I heard St. Jimmy I thought the line "King of the forty thieves, I'm here to represent..." was "Gay unreportedly, no need to represent."

The greatest thing I've got out of that lyric booklet is "baby hooligans", wonderful

I know I've already replied to this, but I was trying to memorize Jesus of Suburbia the other day and, looking at the lyrics, I realized just how much I got wrong. So here is my treasure chest of misheard JoS lyrics "I'm the son of rage and love" "Hyper son of rager love" "Soda pop and Ritalin" "Started poppin' Ritalin" "No one ever died for my..." "Noonehfidkavd" "Get my television fix" "Get my television fixed" "The living room in my private womb while the moms and brats are away" "tgevdgqjsh Dr hfhfjsi" "City of the dead/City of the damned" "Heeeeeey I'm her dad/Saaaaaay I'm her dad" "Lost children with dirty faces today" "Sittin' up driving on the highway" "And I could really care less" "And I could really caress" yeah... ._.

I thought the chorus of RevRad was "Give me cherry bombs and gasoline, debutantes and Sertraline." Unfortunately, I prefer that to the real thing

I honestly love every single song of Revolution Radio. I was sceptical at the first listen, but I really honestly love them all. I'm a little confused by Bouncing Off The Wall and Too Dumb To Die but they are both so fun and great just like every other song. I'm really glad I didn't let the negative opinions I saw about Outlaws influence me. I mean they kind of influenced me because I was scared I wouldn't like it and dreaded the first listen but I was pleasantly surprised to find out I liked it very, very much. I love Revolution Radio so much

Me too. It would make me look badass.

So, until now I kept thinking Billie's singing "who caaares, we destroyed suburbia" in Outlaws. Turns out it's "hooligans" instead of "who cares"... and actually "baby hooligans". Way cooler

Billie Joe Armstrong Talks Ordinary World And Trashing Hotel Rooms Middle-Age Style http://observer.com/2016/10/billie-joe-armstrong-talks-ordinary-world-and-trashing-hotel-rooms-middle-age-style/

This tour NEEDS Lazy Bones on the setlist!

The trilogy is massively underrated and seems to be very misunderstood. The three records were like one great record with all the cool b-sides included. Why in the eff wouldn't a Green Day fan be over the moon for these records is beyond me. I love the fun Green Day / Foxboro Hot Tubs kind of songs that were very present on Dos especially but really all throughout the records. I like the honestly of the lyrics and showcasing ideas of fun & love. Not everything has to be a massive political statement. A lot of us are miserable in our day to day lives. Fun is a good thing for us. The songs are fun & different enough to be exciting & the lyrics seem honest & real in so many of the songs. The same people complaining about the cartoony caricature writing of American Idiot & 21CB also seem to be dumping on the trilogy. The trilogy has some of the most honest & raw writing I've seen in years of Green Day records. Sometimes a grown man has a hangover or a crush or a thought about a missing friend or all kinds of crazy stuff! I'm so happy Billie Joe wrote honestly as the character of himself & how he might feel lazy or nostalgic or what-have-you. It happens. And sometimes an artist will write something funny, lazy, epic, spontaneous & strange. I like how the trilogy gives a fan the best of what makes Green Day Green Day plus a whole lot more. Growing up with Green Day has been a blast and the trilogy was a great gift for me. Uno, Dos, Tre was a very ambitious project & am super grateful they did it. I hope they'll play a lot more songs from those albums live. Seems to be missing from the current set lists. Please for the love of all that is good bring back some trilogy songs to the set lists and realize these songs are appreciated & fans would love to hear them again!

Scattered- "I've got some scattered bitches laying on my bedroom floor. Reminds me of the times we shared, makes me wish that you were here." How I herd that I will never know. How that makes sense I will never know.
