What about Scattered/Nuclear Family? Same BPM and same key chord (E). A medley from 90s to 10s...

I liked it when they did it but I'd rather hear both than a half of each :P

Uptight/Last Ride In. Maybe I'm asking too much...

They once took the request

It didn't really go well. :lol:

I see... :lol:

I love how hard they try at first and then just go "fuck it" and do something that doesn't sound even remotely close :lol: It's hilarious.

I love how the "on the road" section becomes bigger and bigger. :happy:

What do we want? NEW TOUR DATES!

And when do we want it? NOW!

You feel alive. You feel high. You feel rejuvenated. Suddenly everything seems nicer than it was before. Work/school doesn't suck as much as it did before. You won't listen to anything else but GD for weeks. But there is also a thing called post-GD-show-depression, at least that's what I experience. You feel slightly sick because you miss them already and it's like saying goodbye to a real good friend for a while. And you know that the only thing you need right now is another show. And then another one. And another one... Welcome to your first addiction. :D

Thank you. I hope to feel like that.

I could barely walk after my last GD gig, three years ago. Standing for so long really take it out of you :lol:

138, 141, 143, 146, or 148 days until I see Green Day. They all count :P 

I guess they'll be the greatest 11 days of your life. :happy:

That is a hell of a Green Day marathon, wow, enjoy it! But the post-GD-show-depression afterwards could be a bit worse ;)

It's actually musically quite epic once you forget about the disjointed and nonsensical lyrics.

Yeah, and I'm actually ok with the lyrics now too - they capture nihilism quite well and I kind of can look past the fact that they're nonsensical because I enjoy the song.

Heaven. Pure heaven. That's the reason they should play that song at least once live. It's such a shame they didn't perform it during the 99Rev tour.

Especially since Billie said it was a song for arenas...

A friend of mine from college looks exactly like an older version of the little girl from Ordinary World. It's crazy.

I wonder if any of you guys have noticed this. When Still Breathing is performed live, during the very last chorus Billie sings "my way to you" and the only one singing "Cause I'm still breathing" as back vocals is Jeff. You can see it if you watch any video from the live performances (not just the Ellen one) paying attention to the whole band during that part. I don't think he sounds very good, but that's not the point. Why would they choose to let Jeff alone singing it? Sounds odd to me :P

I guess it needs to seem reasonably quiet because the rain and roses line has prominent backing vocals which would lose their effect if everyone else was singing the line before it

It's because we were doubting the usefulness of Jeff in the band back in July ;)
