I wish they'd release the rehearsal recordings of AI

The sound of the rehearsals in the making of doc sounds awesome

Even Alligator? I hate that song almost as much as Troublemaker, which makes sense cause they're pretty similiar

Except Alligator is a joke and Troublemaker is supposed to sound hip and cool

Didn't know about that! Makes East 12th Street more interesting.

Same! I know The Pedestrian is my least favourite though, I love it but it's the least 60's sounding song on there and more conventional Green Day sounding to my ears, not quite as interesting as the others. I think this opinion is pretty unpopular as it often seems to be a favourite, which I don't really get.

Dat solo.

Also, yes, AI is my choice too.

I honestly wish that Misery was never recorded. I support the fact that they wanted another unique song, one that they have never done anything else like it but it just didn't work that time. In my opinion, if that song wasn't included in the album, Warning would be perfection.

Listen to it high. It changed my life

In regards to Billie: That feel when your side project/joke band is better than your real one.

I hate the production on J.A.R. The drums are incredibly thin and it lacks so much of the power the AAF version has.

I don't even listen to the studio version, the live AAF cut is what made me fall in love with it and that's what I've stuck to

Well, I'm shocked. I love the original! I think you're being pretty harsh about how thin the drums sound, it's a nice punky tone.

I just recieved my copy of "Nobody Likes You" by Marc Spitz and it says that on that day Billie had to do paperwork regarding his community service for DUI conviction and Tre was in process of divorce, meeting with layers. Mike was left alone in the studio and came up with "nobody likes you" part, and East 12th St is about Billie doing his DUI paperwork cause apparently Oakland police office is there. And we all know about Tres' part. No idea if the whole thing about that particular day is true but it sounds like a nice story.

Wow that story makes way too much sense not to be true

"We all know about Tre's part." I don't. Help?

It's basically completely autobiographical. Everything said in the song applies to him.

Well, what did you imagine? Something as epic as Céadóg's Who the Fuck Is Tre Cool story? :lol:

I agree with Darth Prixus. The drums are too sharp. It's not the punk tone that's bad, it's just that the drums make it less pleasant to listen to.

Pretty much. I thought there might at least be some kind of metaphor in there :P

They should have used Like A Rat Does Cheese instead of Rock n Roll Girlfriend tbh.

So we end the most epic comeback record of all time with Jesus becoming a dirty old man? :lol:

To be fair it's exactly what happened to Billie.

The Trilogy would have made a lot more sense, at least.

My current theory is if you play Dos backwards it's just Mike sobbing and Tre whispering "So much cocaine. So. Much. Cocaine..."

Someone else's cocaine?

We can't have 2 Live Crew making millions or having a 15 mil diamond plaque

It's Green Days way of keeping the black man down take their lyrics and only perform the song live and not on an album that sells millions and millions them damn white Devils
