I assume if Billie's belly is called Bellie, then he also has a Willie ๐ค๐3 points

Why specifically Emirates vs. Milton Keynes though? They also played Wembley in 2010 and I think there they had higher attendance than at Emirates Stadium. Also, they played several large stadiums in the US during the American Idiot tour (Giants Stadium, just to name one) also most likely exceeding 60'000, although not reaching 130'000. Btw, I think Wembley in 2010 was actually their single biggest show in terms of attendance. From what I read, they played in front of 90'000 people, which they haven't topped since then on a single show.3 points

Even Amanda... I love so much that song. He says "you're a different woman, that's for certain" and comes from "I don't know a thing about" to "I wanna know about". And the chorus. And the solo. One of the reasons I love the trilogy is that it carries deep, heavy subjects and you cab't be unaware of that when listening to the lyrics, and the music itself has sadness in it but it's always a jam at the same time. I love Extraordinary Girl, Give Me Novacaine and Whatsername from AI, for instance, but they're so devoid of any joy it's sometimes hard to listen to them. While I could listen to Lazy Bones in a loop, it will be okay. It's one of my favorites and the saddest of the trilogy, for me, but it still gets me going.2 points

I think some is good, some is pretty bad. Iโm just happy to see someone who isnโt churning out the same old pop crap written by 8 people.2 points

I forgot Wembley was their biggest show! Pleases me since I was there. There's a brick in the ground outside the stadium that GDC members clubbed together to pay for, it commemorates Green Day playing there/GDC members being there. Particularly fitting knowing it's their biggest show to date.2 points

I agree with some opinions regarding production style in trilogy. Let Yourself Go should have been straight punk-tones rather than clean af guitars. Same goes to Loss of Control. However, Trilogy's guitar sound is fucking amazing especially during songs like Stop When The Red Lights Flash, Lazy Bones, Lady Cobra, Wow! That's Loud, Amanda, 8th Avenue Serenade and Missing You. Those songs would not be as good as they are with any other tones. I don't get it why people like Demolicious versions more than studio albums. Sure, Baby Eyes and Nuclear Family sounds fucking amazing there, but everything else is just meh for me.1 point

Honestly I don't mind this thread as long as Billie doesn't go in the confessions thread. Maybe if Billie comes here he'll realize how cute he is1 point

Stumbled across this on FB. In one of the paragraphs GD gets a small mention: "I donโt know of any other bands that made it as big as Libido Boyz did, though several were very formative in the scene which revolved around basement shows, garage shows, Martiโs, YWCA, there was that empty storefront in the downtown mall that had a bunch of shows, there was even an epic show out at a farm where Green Day came to town and played on farm spools and a pick-up bed."

I'm not on here very often these days, but I just couldn't resist logging in to fangirl over those Father's Day pics that 80 posted. So fucking cute! I especially love this one:1 point

Being picked out of the crowd to come on stage to sing or play with gd is different than crowd surfing your way to the stage just for the โtouchโ factor. Crowd surf all you want but donโt strangle him while his literally playing the music other attendees are trying enjoying.1 point

But look at his mum, she's 87 for goodness sake. I haven't seen a picture of her for a year or two but no way she looked anything close to 80! What with the hair and all, that's some gene pool ๐ Just made me wonder if we'll get lots of posts with Billie and Adie's big anniversary soon.1 point

I can't see either of your posts! So I was at that show... Didn't speak of it before because I tended to freak out too much already like that, with some expectations that got disappointed like meeting him which didn't happen, and i didn't know where I would end, but finally it was great, for waiting early enough I ended up front row right before Billie. About the bellie I wanted to say that by stretching my arm not even fully I could've touched it, but I didn't. I think Billie is a person like another and deserves to be respected in his integrity, being crazy about him can't excuse everything. I already hate that someone would touch even my hair without asking. When Billie crowdsurfes and opportunistic people touch his hair, (like I did myself last year!), it's one thing because he just throws himself in the crowd, but touching his bellie while he's playing, I don't think it would've been very respectful! Before the encore, when they were about to get back up on stage, they crossed a few fans on the sides and one girl brushed his arms in passing. When getting back up on stage Billie then had a quick wiping gesture on his arms with his hands. Proof that he didn't really like to be touched like that It was so porn indeed. He lay down just because he wanted to and once the fan (a girl two places on my left) had positioned the mic, he grabbed it so she would hold it a little closer to his mouth. She kept her hand perfectly still after that, but gosh it was just brushing his lips all the time! It was way too hot1 point

When you get an email from Tim Armstrong and for a second wonder why the musician would be emailing you? Sadly, you then realize that you have a business associate by the same name.1 point
