Green Day On American Idol

[TotalBasketCase13]

FUCKING AMAZING!!!!

I had to watch it on GDA's player, because I was at a concert last night, but oh geez.

So nice to see our boys back onstage again!

I'm also glad Jordin won.

I found this at the Kelly Clarkson Express boards, it's a review from someone that was at the American Idol finale:

wow, awesome review. They should've just went into another song though.

The producers couldn't exactly kick them out, haha.

[mmmcrazypills]

WTF? what did i miss?? i see my name but i have no idea why

I think she was talking about this. I'm kinda lost on how she confused us.

I didn't watch it but I woke up and they were talking about it on the radio. I was kinda bummed. I was not only bummed that Green Day was on the Antichrist of television, but that star magazine was right. :/

Thanks for feeling the need to share that with us.

[The Doctor]

Wow! The presenter looks so much like Jamie Theakston! ( )

[didpunkrockgetitright]

Thanks for feeling the need to share that with us.

Yeah no kidding. If your bashing Green Day like that, why the hell are you on this forum?

Honestly...

I thought the performance was fucktacular.

They all looked kind of tired though.

Like they were sort of sleepy or something, but like always, they did an amazing job.

:down: You suck, what can I say?

you are over-rated??? after all...you are nobody here!!!

[spark in the night]

big threads scare me

just heard WCH on the radio

woot

[Inane Kiss]

Haha wow guys, way to react exactly like you were supposed to. In general, if people with no ava and sig and low postcounts post things that make you angry, they're just screwing around. And if they really think that, then who cares? people are entitled to their own opinions. Getting your panties all in a twist makes you look just as silly as they do. and we don't want any of our fellow GDCers looking silly, do we?

[rootbeersoup]

Hmm... *goes to make new accounts to piss people off*

[Inane Kiss]

Hmm... *goes to make new accounts to piss people off*

i kid, i kid.

[rootbeersoup]

But I can piss people off more this way

Go away....far far away.

I thought the performance was fucktacular.

That a girl!!!!! Haha. Love to see the word used correctly. :wink:

[Anko]

They could say no if they didnt want to do it.

They reached millions of people, it will boost sales of that album which comes out next week and sales of their video too. More money for charity. Which is why they did it in the first place. Seems like a no brainer.

Yeah they could've but like yu said it'll help the album seel more

I found this at the Kelly Clarkson Express boards, it's a review from someone that was at the American Idol finale:

So after we were all in our seats Green Day was announced and the band came out on stage. There was a rather long wait until the guys were given the go ahead to start their performance so Billy Joe, the lead singer, started talking to the audience and he was so awesome and funny. He started out by asking if there was anyone from a bunch of random different cities and people would cheer when he mentioned where they were from. Then a couple of girls yelled out and Billy Joe asked them where they were from. He couldn’t hear them clearly so he asked them to come up there. They went over there and put their arms around his shoulders as they talked and they said they were from London.

Billy Joe announced they were doing this performance to bring attention to the situation in Darfur and directed people to the website instantkarm.org . That really explained the randomness of this appearance be the band. So the band was finally given the cue to start their performance. After the first verse the performance was stopped because the lighting wasn’t right. Billy Joe joked that that was it, the performance was done. A pause happened while the lights were adjusted and Billy Joe pointed out that this song had the f word in it. Then the band restarted, I thought they did an excellent job. After the applause had died down some of the production staff were talking to each other and they asked the band to do the song again. Someone in the audience yelled out for the band to sing another song. Billy Joe responded to them saying that they would do the song over again and then they’d play another one. The stage manager was standing behind him shaking her head to indicate that the extra song was a no-go. Billy Joe said, “Man, I can’t get away with anything!” it was pretty cute. The stage manager replied that she was a mom, Billy Joe said they liked and respected moms. The stage manager said when you don’t listen to moms you get a time-out. Billy Joe laughed and said he felt like he was already in a time-out because the performance was being pre-taped. I guess they didn’t want to risk having to hit the censor button at the right time doing the performance live. Oddly, the censoring was also done for the live audience as well, so we didn’t hear the f-bomb. So then Green Day performed one more time and they were done. The whole thing was very cool, I’m so glad I got to see it live. Oh yeah, if you pay attention to the judges table during this performance, the people sitting there aren’t the actual judges, they were their stand-ins or as Katy called them “fake Simon, Paula, and Randy”, haha. Randy’s stand-in was significantly thinner than the real Randy and Paula’s double’s hair was much redder than Paula’s. During a break Billy Joe told Paula’s stand-in “Paula, I like you’re nose!” That guy is too funny.

So it was pre-taped? I knoew AI Didn't have the balls

to let them play it live

their performance sucked, but, what can i say?

It is green day after all..

Why did you join a Gren Day fan site if you don't like them?

Go fuck yourself you n00b.

[adelinelover]

I don't know about u guys, but they didn't really seem that exited to b on there.

[spark in the night]

I don't know about u guys, but they didn't really seem that exited to b on there.

that's because the crowd was supposedly fake

the performance was pre-recorded and they put in the audience after

or something along the lines of that

I dont know

it cracks me up that some Green Day fans criticize Green Day harshly

get over it

[DUI]

I found this at the Kelly Clarkson Express boards, it's a review from someone that was at the American Idol finale:

Lmao! That was funny.

[justcause]

According to http://greenday.net/, Fox wouldn't let GD perform live on air - seems like they were terrified that the word 'fucking' would somehow be unleashed, despite all their swear-nuking technology. I think it's fucking cool that GD held out for John's words, to sing it like he wrote it and let the fuckers leave a gap where the truth should be.

[Jose Luis]

for some reason i can't stop watching the video
