iamwhatsername13 Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I really liked it, but i agree that it looked like Billie Joe kept going cross eyed, also it would of been cool if they sang American idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drmjmnd Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Also, it was tape delayed response, thanks to FOX and their censors, They had to tape their performance 3 hours earlier. Billie has had an eye infection for 3 days, it was still obvious when performing."The Real Father"No reason for that Billie let me know late yesterday afternoon they were performing live.

Undone Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I'm sure there is a better way of posting this so that it doesn't clog the board, but I'm flumped if I know what it is so I apologise in advance This was found by a friend of mine on a Kelly Clarkson Express website and is an account from someone attending the finale. It's a direct cut and paste so excuse the spelling mistakes."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".Like I say, I take no credit for finding this but I thought some of you might be interested.

killerlime Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 i dont buy the whole, "their management company made them do it" thing. Since when have they really ever let anyone tell them what to do? Green Day chose to do it on American Idol because its the most watched show in America and they would be able to get their message to the greatest number of people that way.yeah the guys looked good and had this or that expression on their faces that made them look precious, but they always look good. and who the fuck cares if Billie gained or lost weight, that's asinine. it was still boring.

And I will 100% agree with you that it was boring!But at the end of the they will agree with the Management company or else they don't have anyone to promote them and make them money...which is the whole point of having someone manage you and the whole point of being in the music world = promote yourself then make crap loads of money! Even if the money isn't going directly to them but for a charity its all about making money! When it comes to business' contracts are signed and they will have a certain say in things...But they are told what to do! That is business. I'm not having a go...but they are told what to do...everyone in the music business is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killerlime Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 ok then in my opinion........Green Day wouldn't have performed on American Idol if they didn't choose to for their cause of the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
