Oh does it? :lol: Knew it was something incorrect but didn't think to check. Still lonely not lazy :P

Yes I'm pretty sure :P I know it is actually "lonely" but what "you're fucking breaking" would mean anyway ?

The booklet actually says "You're fucking breaking" :)

I KNEW I WASN'T INSANE :runaround:

Like, breaking down mentally from the boredom the song describes. Or in my case dying from the boredom the song induces :lol:

Is there anywhere a video of American Idiot musicale in a good quality?

Not that I know of. You can find it on Youtube, but not great quality. They did a documentary on the making of it called Broadway Idiot. It's quite good, you might want to watch that.

Thanks, is it worth buying?

You can rent it on itunes, and probably through amazon too. I thought it was pretty good!

I think its worth buying. I'm happy to post you my copy & you return but that would be a nightmare & cheaper for you to buy. You could probably pick one up second hand now anyways.

It is worth buying. Let me see if I can share it with you. I tried to share something else but couldn't figure it out.

What happened with GD on 30/1/13 to have so many GDC'ers online.

The only other thing I can think of was that when they announced their return with 3 small concerts.

Question About a line from dry ice

Is it

"To me it's the pain that's in my heart"

Or

"To come ease the pain that's in my heart"

I think I read somewhere in a letter billie used to sing "to ease the pain that's in my arms" back in the day

I forgot what the booklet says and I lost it haha

In my opinion, it's one of the best documentaries I've ever seen. I've seen it at least ten times haha. So yeah, it's definitely worth buying to me. The first time I saw it I watched on Showtime, but then shortly after I realized I loved it so much that I wanted to buy it. :lol:

What do you think is the best and a plausible way to contact Green Day (preferably Billie or maybe Addie)? I'm not searching for an adress to write a love letter or a typical "fan letter" that won't be read anyway, but I don't have Facebook or Twitter...

It's "to ease the pain that's in my heart". And, frankly, this line is not present on lyric sheets for both 1000 Hours and 1039 SOSH.

There's this letter.

I hear BJ singing "come ease the pain that's in my heart" on the studio version but English is not my native language so I may be wrong of course.

Edit : to be honest I actually hear "in my aaaaaare" hahahaha

The underbelly would be the underside, or most vulnerable side of an animal. The underbelly stacked up ten high would mean they are all dead. So, I interpret that to symbolize an end.

Just some trivia, Letterbomb is my favorite GD song to play.

No, that happened on New Year's Eve. I remember, because I was crying many tears of joy because I snagged tickets to the Pittsburgh show last minute after they canceled Cleveland. Then I swore "they better make it up to Cleveland, goddammit!" And they did, two years later. :lol:

i remember reading somewhere that the underbelly is what Jesus of Suburbia calls his group of friends. The line before ('where have all the bastards gone?') says that all of his group have disappeared / left him, so i think 'the underbelly stacks up ten high' is pretty much a continuation of that.

also, tying in with the rest of AI - I interpret the underbelly as a marginalised / vulnerable part of society that could be hidden, criminal or unpleasant (if thats the right word).

I can see that interpretation, but even with that, the underbelly stacked up ten high would symbolize an end. His friends have all left, so their "society" is all coming to an end. I think that fits in the context of the song.

never really thought about it like that, but I agree with you. personally, I don't interpret them as being dead... I might be wrong on that?
