Random Green Day News

Recommended Posts

Don't know if this falls under "Random News" or "Blatant Self-Promotion," but I felt like it works better here than posting it in its own thread.

I'm going to run the fourth (and presumably final) Green Day Spectacular on WXOU, Nov. 25 at 3 p.m. Eastern.

Get requests in through any number of electronic harassment methods (all in my signature).

This will be the last one of these I do, so let's make it one to remember.

Green Day on this NME "30 Heinous Crimes Against Music - Chosen By You" with thir clash's cover: http://www.nme.com/photos/30-heinous-crimes-against-music-chosen-by-you/325862/1/1#13

What the hell!!!! I fuckng love their version of i fought the law

I've heard time and time again their cover of The Clash being hated on and I'm like "Seriosuly?" It's not the best cover in the world, but it's damn good! I don't understand why people hate it.

Because it's a pretty lazy cover, really. It sounds like all they did was polish up the instruments and replace Strummer with Billie Joe. Not exactly groundbreaking.

The real crime here is that they're calling it a cover of a song by The Clash. Typical NME shite. RIP Sonny Curtis.

Don't forget they shifted the key up as well. Because we all know that makes all the difference.

I was thinking about Kerrang and I figured out that they're those teeny bop magazines like BOP, Tiger Beat, and j-14 but aimed at a rock audience. They have pin ups, they always feature the "hot guys" of the moment, and they take any tiny bit of "news" and try to make it a cover story to get fans to buy it :lol:

Foreverly is featured on the front page of the HMV website as part of an article of unlikely album pairings. The rest of the list comprises of Lou Reed and Metallica's Lulu, Impossible Dream by Kylie Minogue and the Manic Street Preachers, Pearl Jam and Neil Young's Mirror Ball, Elvis Costello and The Roots' Wise Up Ghost and Linkin Park's awful collaboration with Jay Z.

I think this collaboration is so great. I really like listening to it.

NME

Albums With Sequels - The Good, The Bad & The Unnecessary

Green Day released a trilogy of albums in 2012 which were patchy to say the least. '¡Dos!' was particularly cluttered with filler to measure up against the best of the band's stuff.

Rocksmith is going to do a 3-pack of Green Day songs tomorrow :) From what I understand, Rocksmith is a program/site that helps teach guitar/bass.

They posted this on their FB-

"Tomorrow's new 3-song DLC pack is going to be huge. Are you ready?"

Precisely what I think as well. And they used to make sense some hmmm...20 years ago.
