I saw the Dookie 30th anniversary edition when I went to a music store... Is it worth it? 

Yeah! Whether it's CD or vinyl it's a great set. A cool live show, some demos, and bonus goodies! They may be silly but it's a cool extra thing for the price.

Redundant CD1 and 2. Discs were swapped so I had to work it out myself.

CD1 is pretty scratched halfway into the Richard Dodd Wide version of Redundant. They ended when the song was about to end, The Grouch (live) sounds fine. By the looks of it, Paper Lanterns (live) does too. I'll look into CD2.

If you need the songs as audio files you can download them in the Philly thread in the download section:

Well, I got this US Stray Heart Promo CD... and I bought a Japanese Poprocks & Coke Single from eBay!

I just ordered the Dookie Igloo cooler. I thought it was badass.

 

I'm not out to get all of the Saviors vinyl variants, but I'll buy the variants that I find in the "wild" with the exception of the hot pink galaxy version that I pre-ordered. So far I also have the Indy exclusive, Target exclusive, and the 180-Gram version. Unfortunately the Wal-Mart near me sucks, they only have a tiny vinyl section and it's all country records (I live in the Silicon Valley for cirssakes!) so no luck on the Wally World exclusive. I'll have to check other locations when it's convenient.

The Dookie cooler is great, only available in US though.  Hate to think what it would cost to ship considering how much coffee is!

Yeah shipping from the US to the UK is crazy expensive. I looked at some stuff on Hot Topic and they wanted $44 to post a $25 t-shirt!

All I can say is I ❤️ your keyboard. Other than that, nice finds! I'm definitely never getting all these rare exclusive to other country promos :(

Well man, first this keyboard was made by Corsair. It costed around 60 bucks on Amazon in 2020-2021, and still working so good!! :D 

Talking about the promos... here in Chile is really rare to find promos. I think once I saw one promo for Ha Ha You're Dead, not the one from Japan. I don't remember to be honest, maybe it was made in Spain. So my friend, you need to be patient, and look for these things on ebay/discogs/etc everyday if you really want them, Therefore, they are kinda expensive. I watched time ago a Walking Contradiction Green Promo CD with a price around 200 US dollars, same story for another promo from Dookie Era made in Japan.

There's a non-Japanese "Ha Ha You're Dead" Promo out there? 😮
Or do you maybe mean Maria or Poprocks & Coke?

Poprocks definitely, that one had both JP and Spanish editions and the Spanish had a cover identical to ISH. Ha Ha You're Dead and Maria were promos made for only Japan and Mexico respectively.

Poprocks & Coke (this song only) only had 1 promo, which is the one with the ISH artwork: https://www.discogs.com/release/3635475-Green-Day-Poprocks-Coke
Poprocks & Coke/Maria had 2 promos (both US): https://www.discogs.com/release/26219135-Green-Day-Poprocks-Coke-Maria & https://www.discogs.com/release/9748496-Green-Day-Poprocks-Coke-Maria
Maria (this song only) had 1 promo from Mexico: https://www.discogs.com/release/8479656-Green-Day-Maria
Ha Ha You're Dead only has 1 promo (from Japan): https://www.discogs.com/release/10626767-Green-Day-Ha-Ha-Youre-Dead


I don't think there are more HHYD promos around or do you know more about it @Insomniac1984?

Yeah the Japanese Poprocks was not a promo. It's sort of like how one of my other favorite bands, System of a Down, had released the song Violent Pornography as a single in Japan, only Japan.

Up until 2010/2011 I used to collect everything I could find but these days I'd rather go to more shows. Sometimes I buy odd stuff that I see and other times I go for months thinking I'm not going to collect any more :lol:

Let me be more specific. First, I said I SAW a Non-Japanese Ha Ha You're Dead Promo, not sure if it was edited in Spain or here in Chile. However, I can assure you, it was not the one listed on discogs.

Second, yes, I know the thing about the Mexican Maria Promo. HOWEVER, I found this on eBay 5 or 6 years ago and I bought it. It is from Australia, edited in 2001. I bought it thinking this could have the original version, but nope. Nevertheless, I think it is the same version from ISH, but without the initial part with Billie's Look for love interview.

Spoiler

And this is a picture to prove the audio quality. I made a FLAC rip of this promo. (BTW, if admins allow me, I could post this)

And now I listed this promo on discogs!!

Maria (Tartare Steak Mix) Discogs.

The cover looks bootlegish, but since it's an official Warner release, I doubt.

I commend anyone aiming to get all Green Day releases. I consider myself a collector on a budget, so there are some things I know I'll never own. I don't have cash to splash on rare releases or singles from other countries and that's fine with me. If I see them out in the wild for a price I can afford, hell yeah I'll get it. But I try to focus on stuff I can afford, like studio albums, singles, magazines, and weird promo items.

I think in the same way as you. If I can afford something, I buy it. I would love to get a Green/Orange Walking Contradiction Promo, but I won't pay 200 bucks for that. Even I remember a guy who posted RevRad Instrumental on ebay for 1000 dollars, and I thought: "that's not for me".

There are many promo that look bootlegish. On discogs you can check them.

I think the CD you photographed is real but someone gave the edit of the song a stupid flashy name and created a ridiculous looking cover art (I guess it's from after 2005, like 2008-2009) since a LOT of people were using the IMPACT font in those days (me included).

Oh it's not scratched, I used an ass CD player which cut during the song.
