Montclare Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Not so much a Green Day, but GDC question- how do you tag another member in your comment? I searched, but was unable to find the answer. I thought it was just putting the @ symbol before their name, but that didn't work. Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I searched, but was unable to find the answer. I thought it was just putting the @ symbol before their name, but that didn't work. Thanks. If you put the you put the @ symbol before their name then a list of usernames should drop down, becoming more refined as you type more. You have to click on the username from the list to tag them, otherwise it doesn't work. For example, @Montclare works as a tag when I click on the name that pops up, but without clicking it just says @Montclare without any actual function. So it's important to select it properly, rather than it just being based on what you type. Also, FYI, there's a GDC help/feedback thread hidden over in general chat if you have any more questions: 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSpike13 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Hey guys, I'm heading up to Portland to see God's favorite band on Wednesday and have floor tix. I was just wondering if anybody has a general idea of how early I should get there to line up outside if I wanted to wind up front row. I saw them at the Not So Silent Night Festival in December and was there about 5 hours before the doors opened but wasn't sure if that would be early enough for a show that's part of their tour. Any help is appreciated thanks guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoodleBob Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Not really sure if this is the correct place to ask, but does anyone know what songs Green Day have brought people on stage to play guitar for? I know they brought a girl up to play Knowledge the other day, but other than that I have no clue! EDIT: I want to clarify that I'm asking about this US tour specifically.

They used to let people play Jesus of Suburbia in the past (2009 maybe?). Also they bring up a fan to sing during Know Your Enemy and Longview!

solongfromthestars Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Does anyone have the source for this quote? Quote "I hate celebrities. I really hate them… I like people and I’m not a person that just stays in my house all the time and counts my money or anything like that, but I’m not going to go out and try to act like a star. I’ve got my set of friends - I love them, I think they’re great people. I love my wife - she’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me in the whole world and that is all I need. When I talk about my friends, I’m talking about Mike and Trè" I know it's partially legit but I've never heard the Mike and Tre part, it sounds like something a fan has just tacked on Maybe I've just never seen the full version though.

Hermione Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Lol that last bit does sound fake, although it could be incomplete or out of context. It used to be so much easier to find where GD quotes came from when there were more sites like Geocites and other random ones where there were loads of full interviews, all you can ever find is the same bits of quotes repeated on Tumblr when you google them now.

youngreendayvet Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 So "No Trump, No KKK, no fascist USA" has become a common chant at the rallies. Were people already chanting it and Billie said it on stage, or did he start it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Originally released in the 80s without the Trump part, but revamped and used as a chant. GD just picked up on it and made it more famous.

Montclare Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Okay, extremely strange question- has Billie ever mentioned the reason behind the cross tattoo on his hand? I ask because I was watching the Blues Brothers and noticed Jake and Elwood have the same tattoo in the same place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was probably thinking more of the cult of celebrity thing but sucks when your words come back to bite you in the ass (similar thing happened to me just today actually).
