Popular Post Mar Posted September 5 Popular Post Share Posted September 5 Well, that was something. What's been posted in here basically explains it. It was very confusing — the way we all saw them grab Mike, we thought something happened with him specifically. I could see from my seat that everyone was being carted away in golf carts and knew it was some sort of threat. I assumed it was something in the pit that escalated until I saw that the people in the pit were as still and stunned as the rest of us. Honestly, I selfishly didn't panic — I just thought "Yep, of course. I've been relying on this show to single-handedly keep me sane and now I only get four songs." It wasn't until later that I considered that we could've been in danger, too. But they came back and didn't miss a beat, didn't miss a song. I'm grateful they worked it out and grateful they got back out there for us. It's weird, I was of the age where AI meant more to me than Dookie, but I enjoyed the Dookie set more than I thought I would. And even though I obviously knew AI was being played in full, I think I had gotten so used to hearing St. Jimmy segue into some other common setlist song that when Give Me Novacaine came on, I was somehow surprised and that made it all the more beautiful. I hope maybe I can remember more specific feelings later — I'm still wired from the pause and making sense of being there for such a weird moment. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post AlissaGoesRAWR Posted September 5 Popular Post Share Posted September 5 I can’t think of another time when I’ve felt my heart sink into my stomach so fast. That was so eerie to experience, especially since I was up in the stands with a bunch of casual fans who didn’t seem to realize right away that something was wrong. The music cut off but the crowd kept singing for a few seconds longer. Maybe working in news for so long has made me always assume the worst, but I was terrified I was about to be a part of a mass panic/evacuation situation. I thought security saw somebody with a gun or other weapon and felt the guys were in danger — especially Mike since he was rushed off first. My initial thought was maybe Mike had a medical emergency but once @Mar saw them all getting rushed away from the venue in golf carts because she could see behind the stage from her seat, I knew that didn’t make any sense. After people realized them leaving the stage wasn’t supposed to happen, we all just sat there confused and quiet and on edge. It was really unnerving, but surprisingly nobody seemed to outwardly panic near me. Well, except me. Even though they tried to resume like nothing had happened — even picking up mid-song — it really took a while for me to get back “into it” after that. I felt really bad for fans experiencing the show for the first time. First, the fact that they were probably panicking thinking that it might get canceled. And then the fact that the whole point is to hear the album as a cohesive experience. Not with a 10-minute anxiety attack break, ugh. And then my brain did the whole “omg someday the band won’t be here any more and I don’t know how I’ll cope” thing after thinking one of them might be seriously hurt or threatened. … all this during a song about masturbation. This fucking band, what have they done to me. Also, Billie’s amp went out during the end of Good Riddance and he had to play his guitar into the microphone while singing into it as well. His face at the end, when he said it was “a night we’ll all remember,” his expression just screamed “what a fucking shit show,” ha. 5 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though I knew rationally that if they planned to stop the show again they wouldn't have restarted it in the first place, I still felt uneasy at least through Basket Case, and I feel like the crowd felt the same, because that is normally one of the biggest crowd participation songs and it seemed a little quiet. And lmao @ that Insta post they had Billie do, you can tell he was like FUUUUUUUCK DETROIT MAN 😂 which has now given me macro-level anxiety like you had. What if starting Saturday or starting the next tour they change or limit things because they've also been analyzing this as deeply as we are and those changes, while necessary for the safety of the band, make the experience less friendly for the fans?! (Not that I'd blame them, but again, just thinking selfishly!) Yknow, maybe this experience in Detroit will make them rethink their anti-Cleveland stance, though 🤔 😄 because after all, you can't have shit in Detroit! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right — this never would have happened in Cleveland! … still so butthurt we didn’t get a Cleveland-themed patch, and the Cincy one was kind of lame. Poor Ohio.

blauzy Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Does anyone know where to find photos the media crew took? I know a bunch of crew took pics of me in my mask as they were walking by and I'm hoping to find them so show my friends. If anyone has any info I'd appreciate a message!!

JardyOfSuburbia Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 They are now 2-2 in terms of weird shit happening when they play in that ballpark. Last time out on Hella Mega, Mike basically passed out from heat exhaustion during Jesus of Suburbia and never came out for the end of Good Riddance. 4 hours ago, AlissaGoesRAWR said: You’re right — this never would have happened in Cleveland! … still so butthurt we didn’t get a Cleveland-themed patch, and the Cincy one was kind of lame.

Plus the "Unofficial Green Day Museum" is located right in Lakewood in my media room! They need to visit! And, yeah...having to buy a Cincy and Pitt patch as a Clevelander was torture. Had I bought the Detroit one I might have spontaneously combusted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
