  4. I love the Song For Myself cover, very different from original and I love Billie and Jason together. On The Ave is possibly my favourite PG song.

  7. Billie’s vocal delivery on Nothing Ever Happens reminds me a lot of Turn Me Loose from Love Is For Losers which is great because that song is one of the best things he’s ever done imho.

  8. 27 years ago yesterday (26 November 1997), Green Day played First Avenue in Minneapolis, MN on the Nimrod Tour. 29 years ago (26 November 1995), Green Day played the International Ballroom in Doraville, GA on the Insomniac Tour. 30 years ago (26 November 1994), Green Day played the Newport Music Hall in Columbus, OH on the Dookie Tour. 36 years ago (26 November 1988), a dream came true for Green Day (as Sweet Children) when they played 924 Gilman Street for the first time. Another photo: -------------------- On this day 24 years ago (27 November 2000), Green Day played the Coliseu dos Recreios in Lisboa, Portugal on the Warning Tour. 30 years ago (27 November 1994), Green Day played the Patriot Center in Fairfax, VA on the Dookie Tour. "We had been warned of trouble looming at a show in Fairfax, VA, a conservative suburb outside Washington, DC. The gig was at the Patriot Center at George Mason University. George Mason, a father of the Bill of Rights, refused to sign the Declaration of Independence because it didn't guarantee enough rights and freedoms. (Were he still alive, he'd be cast out of Virginia; although its state slogan is "Virginia Is For Lovers", in 1994, Virginia had an anti-sodomy law.) The promoter told Green Day in advance that they wouldn't allow us [Pansy Divison] to play, that we were inappropriate; Green Day's response to the promoter was that if we didn't play, they wouldn’t play. The promoter backed down, but when we arrived, he pulled me aside for a lecture. In a friendly-yet-stern way, he said our material was too mature for Green Day’s young audiences. He said that there would be eight-to-12-year-olds in the crowd. I asked why he was worried about our lyrics and not Green Day’s, which also have some references that might not be suitable. And who were these kids, anyway? What parents were letting their kids go to concerts so young? I told him, if they’re that young, much of what we sing about is going to go right over their heads; they won’t get it. But they’ll know they saw a gay band, and it will get them talking one way or the other. To us, that would be a victory, meaning we’ve infiltrated Pat Robertson country. This guy kept saying things like he had a lesbian sister, that he was for gay rights, but not in these circumstances. He said he was dreading the day-after phone calls from parents. I told him I had the right to sing about it, kids had the right not to be censored, and what we sang about was part of the world we live in. Virginia was a sodomy-law state; the discrimination was written into state law. To counter years of hetero propaganda these kids had heard — and would continue to hear — a few bad words and risquĂ© songs wouldn’t do them any harm. This discussion went in circles for 15 minutes, until I finally told him it was a waste of my time. When we played, the reception was mixed but more supportive than I’d feared; it was the only show we played with Green Day in the South." — Jon Ginoli of Pansy Division 33 years ago (27 November 1991), Green Day played the Revolver Club in Madrid, Spain. Thanks! I remember wishing I could go to that free show on my birthday but I was 15 so it wasn't going to happen

  13. When at the company you work in one of the bosses talks about the "long view" for the company during a town hall meeting and all you can think of is a certain Green Day song

  15. “And we never used to play ‘Homecoming’ at all, but it’s been something our fans have been pushing us to play for the last 20 years.” Yes, please! I hope if they take anything away from this tour, it is that fans love Homecoming too, and that they start alternating between JoS and Homecoming in the future non-album shows. Also, not sure how the journalist worked out that the tour started in Berlin on June 10th. Even if they were only considering solo shows, then it would have been Lyon on June 5th

  16. Got the cd and it came with a 1234 records sticker and a postcard with a black and white shot of the band performing. Pretty cool. The booklet has more than I thought it would. Credits show some other writers. Shine music by Paulie. Green music by Jess J. Davey helped with chowchilla and Ed helped on oh my....

  17. Went on a transatlantic trip for work and got excited when: 1. I found the music section of the onboard entertainment had Father Of All. 2. Saw the Marshall headphones commercial with Billie in one of the screens right after immigration in Paris

  18. A year ago yesterday (9 November 2023), Green Day played at the Marquis pub in London. More photos: 20 years ago (9 November 2004), Green Day played the US Cellular Arena in Milwaukee, WI on the American Idiot Tour. More photos: 27 years ago (9 November 1997), Green Day played The Boathouse in Norfolk, VA on the Nimrod Tour. 29 years ago (9 November 1995), Green Day played the Broome County Veterans Memorial Arena in Binghamton, NY on the Insomniac Tour. 33 years ago (9 November 1991), Green Day played KOB in Berlin, Germany. There were only about 50 people there. More photos: 35 years ago (9 November 1989), Green Day played at 924 Gilman Street. ---------------------------------------- On this day last year (10 November 2023), Green Day didn't play the Electric Ballroom, so I made this to commemorate the momentous occasion. 7 years ago (10 November 2017), Green Day played in Buenos Aires, Argentina on the Revolution Radio Tour. More photos: 15 years ago (10 November 2009), the 21st Century Breakdown music video was released. I always say the 21 Guns video is my favourite, but this one is bloody good too. There aren't any bad videos from that era. Behind the scenes photos: They also played in Milan that day. More photos: 19 years ago (10 November 2005), Green Day were interviewed and played three songs on MTV Total Request Live. More photos: 24 years ago (10 November 2000), Green Day played Minority on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. More photos: 27 years ago (10 November 1997), Green Day played the 9:30 Club in Washington D.C. on the Nimrod Tour. "An amazing show! It was a sold-out crowd at the 9:30 Club in Washington, DC. Superdrag had done their set and now everyone was ready for Green Day! Their roadies were setting up the equipment and the Ramones were playing over the PA. After a while, Whip It by Devo was blasted over the PA speakers and everyone knew that signaled something. Before you knew it, the boys from Green Day trotted up on stage and the crowd went crazy. They opened up with Going to Pasalacqua. Crazy things were going on the whole show. At one point, Bille Joe walked out with an Elmo doll in his pants. He whipped Elmo out and had him clapping along to the song. Then he brought a member out of the crowd to play along to the cover tune, Knowledge. After the guy played along, he commenced in the traditional stage dive. When I Come Around was the second to last song. After they played that, Green Day absolutely destroyed their set. BJ was playing weird shit on the guitar, Tre was trashing his drum set big time (there were sparks flying when he was hitting the cymbals against each other!) and Mike was spraying water and beer on the crowd. Well, there it was, a trashed set, absolute chaos onstage. Then, the roadie took one of the mics and just placed it towards the middle of the stage. Then, BJ came out and played Good Riddance (Time of Your Life). The crowed loved it. Billie didn't play it acoustic though, he just played it on his regular old guitar. It ended what was possibly the best live act that I have ever seen. If you get a chance to catch Green Day live, you won't regret it!" — fan experience 29 years ago (10 November 1995), Green Day played the State University of New York in Albany, NY on the Insomniac Tour. 33 years ago (10 November 1991), Green Day played the Gryfinski Dom Kultury in Gryfino, Poland. This was their first European show outside of Germany. Another photo and a poster:
