XxXxXxXxX Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Historically, around what time of day and day of the week do singles come out? Also if an album announcement was made via magazine or the internet. What time of day (and day of the week) would it most likely occur?

strangestat Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Dunno about when during the day though, Warner is in Cali though so probably sometime during the normal work day PST? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that there are at least a dozen recordings on YouTube of them covering it on the 21CB tour. Is it meant to be done ironically? Yeah I think it's how @Hermione said. They never play that song in its entirety (at least not that I know of) and I'm guessing they're just being ironic he probably doesn't like them for their unconditional American pride and because they play with a confederate flag in the background everytime. Typical rednecks. But I gotta say the song has a nice tune! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They usually play Sweet Home Alabama and I Don't Know by Ozzy Osbourne during the bridge of Disappearing Boy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

molly1620 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Does anyone know what the thing Billie uses to change his voice in Heart Like A Hand Grenade is called? It's that part where they're talking in the studio and he records "YEAAAHHH" into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billie Hoe Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I just found this video and I wonder where this is from? I doubt that Tré pissed him off as it says in the title, but it's still kinda weird for him to flip out like that? Was that around the time of the iHeart situation slash tragedy?

Billie Hoe Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Oh, I should have done some more research I just found another video and it says it's in Brazil in 2010. Some people say the guitar didn't work others say he was mad because Tré fucked up and played the wrong part of the song. But again, I can't imagine why he would be so angry because of a mistake. In the video he comes back to the stage, says "I don't wanna play the fucking song" and that they're going to play 2,000 Lightyears Away instead. It's still seems very weird... maybe something happened around that time and he was stressed or troubled or I don't know Edit: skip to 0:30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNICORN VOMIT Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I just re-read the RS interview for the first time in years - is the equipment we have seen so far indicative of this sound.... (remember I am musically DUMB) I can only take it one song at a time. I just want to write good songs that people love, which is a tough thing to do. It would be great to do another rock opera, but using more low-fi technology. I love shitty-sounding records [grins]. I'd love to do more stuff with Green Day that is 100 percent live. Sometimes I wish we would have recorded our last records that way — that Exile on Main Street feel, where you just get some good tones and go. One thing I can't do is do anything half-assed. I want to make sure everything is right, that the song is fully realized. I think of the first Ramones album and the first Clash album — those songs are fully realized, well played. You can almost hear them doing it in a practice room. You can tell how time goes on, when you fast-forward to [the Clash's] Sandinista! You know all that stuff was done in the studio. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unextraordinarygirl Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I'm not a musical genius or anything so please correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you can get that sound out of most any equipmement. I would love if they had a grittier sound with more distortion like they did back with their earlier albums. Does Billie think that the Trilogy songs were "fully realized"? Listening to them I find that hard to believe. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for that specific outburst, there's different beliefs to what had happened. One being Tre fucked up the intro, another being a guitar string broke, and another being the guitar is out of tune. We don't really know the real reason. You could say it was an over reaction but he did a similar thing at the Reading festival in 2013 where he's guitar went out of tune during Waiting so he through it, and he was completely sober there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermione Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 He just got pissed off because the song got messed up . Nothing new from him, he's passionate when he's performing and he's been pissed off/had a little tantrum on stage many times before (like seriously haven't people seen old shows? the guy can be stroppy). And you can see that he's already calmed down when he comes back and says, somewhat light heartedly, "I don't want to play that song any more" and then goes on with the show just fine. Of course if he was having drinking issues at the time it might've made him more likely to get pissed off, but it's something that's in his nature to do anyway. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siddharth_471 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 There is nothing serious in it and he probably did that in anxiety. I remember one more video (Live MTV Italy 2005), while playing WMUWSE just before the solo had begun Tre messed up a bit on drums but Billie didn't freaked, he laughed on Tre in a friendly manner and carried on. 10 hours ago, Billie Hoe said: Wait, @ 2:39 is that the same music which was played as intro to Basket Case in RNRHOF & HOB performances?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
