Perhaps he prompts fans to sing this bit during live shows so his kids don't hear him sing it If he was worried about that he'd have to get the crowd to sing a lot more lines 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although those particular lyrics are probably the one that his sons would find the most cringe worthy.

Oh, I was probably too vague in my first post. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solongfromthestars Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Yeah I thought you meant getting a fan onstage to sing part of it. When I was 12 I thought he was embarrassed to sing that line so got the crowd to do it for him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given how used to Billie's embarrassing dad antics he must be I'm not surprised it's just kind of whatever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That chart isn't very accurate at the beginning, but Raj played drums for their first show at Rod's Hickory Pit, Sean was Billie and Mike's high school best friend and when the guys would jam he played bass while Mike played guitar. When Mike switched to playing bass, Sean was out he was a roadie with them after that. Dave wasn't really "in" Green Day, but he jammed with Billie and helped write 2000 Light Years Away. His credits appear on the ID tags for the CD if you pop it in. For the actual shows though, the Hickory Pit was Billie, Mike, and Raj. The second was in Davis with Billie, Mike, and John. Aaron Cometbus filled in here and there when John couldn't play. There isn't a set in stone line where John left and Tre joined. John had Tre fill in for him sometimes, and they alternated for a few months based on John's availability. But finally in January of 91, Billie, Mike, and John agreed that they couldn't go on like that and John agreed to quit the band. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hermione Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Regarding Jason White I guess they're not including touring members, since they don't have Jason Freese, Jeff Matika or other touring members there either, so only included him after he played on an album. However in that case they really shouldn't have those early members who only played at random shows either, it's very inconsistent. I think it should be re-done with all touring members included (with whether they're just a touring member or not mentioned), unless they're only going to include people who've been credited as a full band member on an album. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero_Of_The_Hour Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 That is so ridiculous! The idiots who edited the page include people nobody has ever heard of who played ONE show or "jammed" before Mike even played bass but they don't recognise the current touring members or even Aaron Cometbus who has been credited by Billie himself on instagram as being in Green Day before Tre joined and playing "a couple of shows" with them not to mention touring with them most of his life as a roadie and being present at the Hall of Fame last year. Someone needs to edit this stupidity. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for why these anonymous people are listed in the chart, that's a good question. It's still nice to know that they existed though. Should they be mentioned in GDA?

This is a totally un-scientific answer, but I feel like they always play a venue with a sizable pit, whether that's a mid-sized indoor venue (I saw them Consol Energy Center in Pittsburgh, which you might be familiar with, since I see you're from Pennsylvania), a large festival crowd or secret show that's all GA in a smaller venue (like House of Blues in Cleveland). Although there usually are plenty of seats available for the non-festival shows (hell, even House of Blues had an upper seating area) I don't think it's possible for there to be a Green Day show without a pit! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
