Is anyone else not able to log into the official gd page since their site overhaul? I'm freaking out with presales tomorrow and I haven't been able to log in all weekend...

Woke up to the news that Green Day will be playing near Cleveland this summer...great! Just like I had hoped!

...then realized I will be almost 9 months pregnant, due to give birth any day 😳 Mosh pit is out 😂 But I could still do seats...maybe...if I'm not in the hospital at the time...fml

That might actually get you on stage.  I say go for it!

Seriously, congratulations!

This was how our lunch conversation went....

Hubby - we should call one of our new chickens Billie because it's a gender neutral name - you are going to manuevre a GD reference some how.

That sounds like a great idea from someone that really wants something from you.  I wonder what that could be?

I think that 105 members online is the most I have seen at once during my time here on GDC :lol:

When was there 1,005 people online? Was it around the time of the trilogy? :D

I just realized that "desperate but not hopeless" is exactly the way I feel about the world right now. I love Murder City!

I was out to lunch with a friend and Still Breathing started playing. I was so distracted I could barely focus on what she was saying. :lol: It's amazing how different of an experience it is to just catch Green Day on the radio, even though I can listen to them any time I want.

It is definitely up at the top for me too.

I also get excited when I hear them on the radio.

WICA is the best GD song :) & when I hear SB on the radio I cringe - its much better live (which I will find out in May)

That surprises me. SB has grown on me since I started hearing it on the radio. I guess I like it better among other songs than on the album.

I like them both quite evenly. I don't know about "best", I do think WICA is in the top 3! It is so original and unique in every way. Lyrically is genius, basslines are insanely pleasing to the ears as are the drums, it has a cool twist in the beat that only Tre could have added in. Should ALWAYS stay in the set, big time crowd pleaser!! Love that damn tune, and as said above, it totally has one of the best intro's ever. The sound Billie got on the basic riff he had there could not have been better.

Since when do you listen to hubby???  I adore both songs.  But, the reason I like Still Breathing better is that for Brutal Love I feel like Billie is being distant.  He is saying how hard this love is and he just seems so conflicted.  With Still Breathing I feel like he is letting everyone in.  Brutal Love pushes us away, Still Breathing lets us in.  It feels like he is in a better place with Still Breathing.

Should have said my favourite.  It was the first GD song I heard.

Me too, along with Basket Case and Longview. Gotta say When I Come Around is probably my favorite GD song. It did start it all for me, after all. ;)

Longview actually started it for me, but I like WICA better.  And I agree, it should never leave the setlist.

I agree. The feeling of being distant is present in many trilogy songs.
