I mean, you can dislike them, but they definitely are good, it’s just they evolved into a more electronic sound with loads of instruments and stuff. And I think Green Day using backing tracks is fine, it’s not like they are not playing music, it’s just that using tracks you get a more complete sound (like the backing vocals in FRA or the guitar in BOBD) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAPPY ZOMBIE UNICORN Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 I don’t think that’s a backing track, I think it is Jason + Jason + Mike singing on the back. If you watch the HD video in the download section it’s more clear. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'm just easily fooled but it seems to me like Billie's singing as normally, except he's clearly pissed off, and the oohs are from the Jasons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it doesn't seem like anything substantial changes when Billie stops singing so it could be a backing track... I'll look at the HD version. I'd say the oohs and aahs are live though. Btw, I like FRA a lot better live, without the loud McClaps all the way through. It's really catchy and with the long coat on, this performance was a lot like a Foxies show. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as good quality as the one in the download section, but at 1:52 you can hear the same bit in higher quality, and I think it’s clear it’s just backing vocals from the other guys. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly don't have any problem with them and also I think this song is not so easy to perform live anyway cause it's jingly and was made as a short theme song but they handled really well imo 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jengd Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 I think we know they can, whether they have a backing track for the clapping I don’t know, but it sounded pretty live to me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is absolutely no connection amid not being able to do stuff live and using backing tracks On one hand playing with sequences it's even harder than playing without them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not 100% sure but with the presumption of innocence on their side, I'm going to say you're right Funny how they cut out the gum spitting Also Billie avoiding some of those people's high fives? lmao 6 minutes ago, dannygreen said: There is absolutely no connection amid not being able to do stuff live and using backing tracks On one hand playing with sequences it's even harder than playing without them Well, the point of using the track would be that Billie struggles to do the high notes in his full voice/loud enough, so the connection with not being able to do it live would be there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem would actually be that Billie can't do 87 things at a time. The Beatles didn't play live for the latter part of their career because they would have needed 90 people on stage with them. Haha. Basic tracks that are nothing substantive like in FRA don't bother me. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't even say I think that, but to explain the reasoning, the idea was that if he's using backing tracks on songs with loud high notes, it seems logical to assume the reason for using the track is to help him with these.
