Another tour of Europe could be two years away and apart from a new song or two may not change that much from what they’re doing now. Yeah that’s the view I’m leaning to, but I’m not sure if it’s worth seeing twice. I’ll decide after the show I have a ticket for… Plus I have a feeling that they’re relatively close to calling it quits (tour, casino, Las Vegas is the next and then retiring/a cruise). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Dude Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 I knew Somewhere Now was heavily inspired by The Who, but I didn't know it sounds exactly like this song: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Dude Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Setlist.fm does something that really bugs me when it comes to Green Day. They list "Welcome To Paradise" as a Kerplunk song and not a Dookie song. I know it's on both, but come on. Everytime I look at the stats, I'm like "huh, only 3 Dookie....wait a minute!" What do you guys think? Does it count as representing both albums, or are they playing a version that represents only one or the other? I personally think they are playing the Dookie version, but whatever helps them sleep at night, I guess. Also, I hope they keep rotating out NImrod tracks. Scattered is the best song they've played in a LONG time. Oh, and Longview will hit 1000 performances with just 39 more shows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave To The Network Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 I wonder if the boys get their own separate rooms at hotels or if they do a big suite together. They probably have different sleeping habits or routines for going to bed/waking up so it would make more sense for them to be on their own. They need to be guaranteed good rest while they're expending all that energy on tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jengd Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 We know they often share buses, but guess they don’t often sleep on then anymore. I think they would get their own rooms. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't even thought about considering it a Kerplunk song to be honest! I suppose it is essentially the same song though so any finicky Setlist.fm editors are going to insist on listing it as a Kerplunk song. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Dude Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 I have finally chiseled my top 10 Green Day songs out of the 64 finalists. Feel free to roast me, as I know this list might cause some of you great distress since there are no Dookie tracks on here. Stuart and the Ave is the oldest song on the list and it put up a fierce battle against my favorite singles, like Holiday, Minority and Hitchin a Ride to get here. Welp, back to work on the other 54. 1. Too Dumb To Die 2. American Eulogy 3. Still Breathing 4. The Saints Are Coming 5. Scattered 6. Rusty James 7. Haha You’re Dead 8. Brutal Love 9. Stuart and the Ave. 10. Restless Syndrome 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was very tempted to put Saints Are Coming as my #1 choice because I love it that much, but hey. We all hear things differently. Covers almost overtook my whole top 10! A Quick One While He's Away, We Are the Champions, Hybrid Moments, Working Class Hero, Surrender, Bastards of Young, Johnny B Goode, The Kids Are Alright.... imagine if Too Dumb To Die was the only original in the list... But here's the real kicker....Tre Cool's Chocolate Rain cover was in the running. Not kidding. These need more tinkering, but I'm working on my top 10 singles, album cuts, b-sides and finally, covers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave To The Network Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 I think this is the first time I'm seeing this full photo (usually only see the top portion). That guitar case really looks like real alligator or crocodile skin and that makes me sad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pineapple on pizza. Mods, we need an instant ban for anyone eating pineapple pizza on GDA. Billie Joe is not the only one, but he'd be leading the angry mob coming for you. A quick stop at a China shop and the law of the land is doom. You know this is how Pizzagate starts, right? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
localinsomniac Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Don't know where else to post this. The Final Jeopardy category a few days ago was '1972'. I don't remember the clue, but wanna say it had something to do with Watergate. Anyway the answer ended up being Richard Nixon, which brought me to the opening line of 21CB. And sometime last week there was a clue wherein the correct response was Who is Holden Caulfield? I am old and I love Jeopardy!. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miko Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Feels really weird to look at setlists they're doing right now and NOT see She anymore. I think there never has been a tour nor period where they didn't play it (even on secret shows and shit it was played). End of an era to my favorite live song for now 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solongfromthestars Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Holiday was playing on the radio during my driving test the other day. Radio X is great. They play quite a lot of Green Day. Still failed the test though 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
