CherryBombs&Gasoline Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I don't get it. Aren't there bigger problems in America than cursing on TV? Weird. No one would ever censor a "F***" over here. So I really don't see the point 😂. I actually think it's funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave To The Network Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 It's so funny how people are all like "Oh no! The Green Day band did a swear! 😦 So shocking!" like it's something new. Of course they are going to swear. It's Green Day. It was really cool to see Billie's breath as he was singing in the outdoor performance in the videos. They don't usually perform in conditions that cold so we almost never get to see that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I have always found it weird that people always get so angry and offended over hearing someone say fuck or slip a random nipple on TV, but as soon as there is any kind of violence shown no one seems to actually care at all 🤣 25 minutes ago, Melodramfool said: The article was about "mad parents who were worried about their children" Maybe you should have an idea about the gig you're going to your kids?

BilIie Joe Armstrong Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I don't understand how why people get mad over swear words on TV, they're words, they get said everywhere and I don't see what harm they could potentially cause, because believe it or not, you kid has most probably already heard them What I don't understand is how it's possible to swear on TV (unless you are allowed to) when all broadcasting is delayed by 5 seconds since the infamous nip slip so nothing like this could happen again.

Hammie Stein Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I would even go as far to say he played the intro of basket case better at iHeart 2012. God he just played it like shit here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okotavio Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I think he just tried to play slower similar to the studio version, they tend to do that for TV performances. I still think the worst intro he’s done was in the Hall of Fame In case this wasn’t posted in here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solongfromthestars Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 FRA sounded amazing in the videos from soundcheck! The reaction to the swearing is hilarious. America looks so ridiculous from Europe sometimes. It's really unfortunate for fans who waited in the cold that the set was so short and I feel for them because disappointment hits extra hard when you've put that much into it. Green Day can't say anything if it might reflect badly on the NHL, though. Oh and thanks for the great photos @kaylubd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pacejunkie punk Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I’ve come to accept that Billie Joe is one of those people who may always seem like he’s teetering on the edge of disaster, but that’s not always an indication of real life. No way to know what is ever going on but from where I was he was totally fine, didn’t seem messed up in any way, they were just following the event leaders and doing what they were told. I don’t know what happened with Basket Case, almost like they launched into is so quickly he was on the wrong key and it took him a verse to correct it. And it was great meeting you too @brendanL !
