Little Boy Named Booze Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Watching this video bring me back to the old GD video teaser. Remember when we were all excited about this tracklist in the Trilogy teaser 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermione Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Cool vids! Billie looks about twelve (due to the newly cut hair and being next to Rob Cavallo) . It's always awesome to see them in the process of making songs, hope there's more. 51 minutes ago, pacejunkie punk said: It’s Roecker’s footage just shots he didn’t use.

Annie, get your gun Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 It's always great to see new stuff from American Idiot, thanks for sharing! It will always upset the selection JR made for HLAHG. He spent 9 months with them and the result is very boring and predictable although I expected something else. I'd cut the performances and the acting bits and put more of their recording process, or writing process. Like I want to see more Billie singing in the booth, them fooling around, and funny stuff, as well as interviews like the one from the future There was a ton of material to choose from and I feel like he kept the best parts. I love the documentary, but it could have been longer (what fan wouldn't enjoy 3 hours or so of GD?) Instead it feels incomplete to me. I actually prefer the video from Fuse. Ok I complained enough. (It's just that I waited for it for too long, bought 2 dvds, signed the petition when there was one, hoped for years... just give me MORE GREEN DAY PLEASE!) 🙏 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave To The Network Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 After my few first listens to Cancer Is The New Black, something about the melody really reminded me of something. As a lifelong Zelda fan, I realized it's very similar the beginning of the Fortune Teller's theme from A Link To The Past. Not exactly the same, but close enough that you can definitely hear similarities. Just thought that was neat and finally got around to sharing it here.

Yosuke Hanamura Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 When played in the correct tune, I actually like when the band uses their more modern instruments for classic songs. Maybe it’s just coincidence, but I think it provides a more punchy sound. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't it be awesome if every punk song in history was re-made with Billie Joe playing it on a Gibson Les Paul Jr.? 😋 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmoothedOut Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 This is probably one of my favorite eras to look at - 2002. 😄 Love seeing Billie's proto-American Idiot look- skinny red/white tie, all black-clothing, Les Paul Juniors. He's wearing his classic pants though. No skinny jeans, no eyeliner, & no AI songs! The Images won't upload from the URLs, so I'll just share links to cool photos: 2002 White Necktie Les Paul Jr. - http://www.stockrockshots.com/hotshots/2668gd.jpg 2002 - RED Necktie Les Paul Jr. - http://www.rockphotography.co.uk/LIVE/GreenDay/GreenDay__Distn2002_03.jpg The Woodstock '94 outfit is also interesting to look at 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what that sound is that Billie makes at the beginning of Longview, but it is the best thing I have ever heard in my entire life and Billie can make that sound for me anytime he wants.

MarriedtoMikeDirnt Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 This is the best performance of Letterbomb ever. It has everything.

Pretty much applies for Disease is punishment as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarriedtoMikeDirnt Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Anyone who says Billie looks 20 something is lying to themselves. He looks 40 at the youngest. The one who looks the youngest is Tre. He looks 36 and 56 at the same time. Don't even get me started on Mike. He ages a million years and then de-ages. It's odd. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grohl Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 We all know Billie is the fountain of youth. He still looks the youngest. Mike has looked like he's been in his 40s forever and Tre...I mean Tre looks the same I guess. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
