Yeah...they were delicious. :thumbsup:

I mean they preformed at the interview. Sorry for the confusion. It was Michael, Van, Wallace...and I can't remember the other two guys. I'm sorry, I'm tired and cold.

They sang Before The Lobotomy and Give Me Nococaine. I teared up...not gonna lie.

Ben was there too

can't remember the last guy's name

I have no idea how everyone keeps track of the entire cast ... It's so tough to remember 'em all, as bad as I feel admitting this! :cry:

I still don't know all of the ensemble and swings, and I follow the AI thread where they're continuously mentioned :pinch:

Any interesting questions people can remember?

alot of the questions were ones that had been answered hundreds of times before unfortunately.

There were a few good ones - one guy asked if the band would ever consider doing multi-day concerts where they played their whole albums from start to finish, and Billie replied that he'd like to do that with Kerplunk.

Any interesting questions people can remember?

The one question that I found interesting was somebody asked if Green Day would do like, a five day thing and just play one album from front to back

and Billie was like, he was talking to Larry and Larry does some type of music festival in Baltimore adn it has different bands that are pretty cool and he was like, that he would love to do that and play Kerplunk from front to back.

and there were a lot of Jesus of Suburbia/St. Jimmy questions and the compare and contrast between them. And another question about the making of the movie of American Idiot and Billie and Micheal said that there is a big possibility that the movie will be made and they're still talking about it.

And another question about the parallels of preforming on a Broadway stage and preforming for the audience. And Billie was like, he has to remember to focus on John and Rebecca and not look at the audience cause when you're on stage, you're an actor and it's hard not to break the fourth wall.

That's all I can remember. I'm tired. :lol:

Well I'm glad it has been recorded! I missed this, but from what I've read on the last couple of pages here, it sounded like an awesome interview! :D

Love the answer from Billie that he'd like to play the whole Kerplunk record if he had the opportunity. I would travel a long way just to see Green Day do that.

Thank God it was recorded.

could not have handled the double disappointment of no AAF setlist and this not being recorded :lol:

This :P

But wasn't that asked in another Q&A with Michael Mayer and Billie? I think I remember Tony posting it in his Facebook... and he said that he'd like to play Kerplunk from front to back too.

I'm not sure either, but I've deffinetely heard that before.

I think he also said something similar in Storytellers when they played American Idiot front to back and someone told him if they could play a song off Kerplunk, or something like that.

I stayed up to watch the interview and I thought it was great :D I wish I could have been there to ask a question, I would have tried to ask a question that we have'nt (as you guys have said) heard a million times before.

Like, what musical direction do you see yourself and the rest of the band taking with the next album?

Is there a possibility of the musical touring? For example, London?

Even though we know you're perfectionists, which is a good thing, how long roughly from now can we expect a new album?

I just think maybe if there had been time for more audience questions, maybe we would have heard the answers to some of these :/

Either way, the interview was awesome (as fuck) and I'm glad I stayed up to see it :D
