peepee Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I found a bunch of nice acoustic covers of some of Green Day's older material on YouTube. It's recorded by some guy called Daniel Soxic and apparently he was involved in some sort of Green Day Hoax thing back in 1997 where he, according to himself, without intention managed to fool the world that two of his demos were rare Green Day demo tracks. They were posted on greenday.com and the whole thing spun out of proportion.Walking Alone: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jfa18FryB3cWorry Rock: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YiQem9KbQ0IPulling Teeth: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZUO3cSbhGcPaper Lanterns: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvYG20qDdSoThere's more...Made pretty good songs of his own too: http://soxicmusic.com/mainpage/?page_id=73 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hermione Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 ^His username sounds like it's meant to go before your username!Ha I'd never heard of this hoax thing before. I can imagine it would've pissed me right off if I'd been taken in by it . The covers are pretty decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peepee Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 No, I'm not the guy, but we are from the same country. Don't know him personally though. I think many who have been fans of Green Day since the early day's and used to visit greenday.net when Jason was running it remembers the "green day hoax". Just google for "green day hoax" and you should find some info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FenderDude Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 He is quite famous actually (or infamous to some). But I don't think the recent fan base knows about him. I like his music a lot though. His covers are exellent and obviously he was blessed with a voice similiar to billie joe. same vocal range, tone and nasal sound. His own music is pretty original though with influences from green day to clash. There is another thread about him here: http://www.greendaycommunity.org/Forum/ind...showtopic=60136 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peepee Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 Federdude, listen to the originals http://soxicmusic.com/mainpage/?page_id=73 especially "Salvation" and "Death of a Nation". Way better than the covers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peepee Posted February 4, 2009 Author Share Posted February 4, 2009 This guy just recorded the most amazing cover of "Having A Blast" ever. It's not an acoustic cover but a full cover of the song with his band or whatever. http://soxicmusic.com/mainpage/?page_id=73 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
