I feel like the entire second half of Nimrod never gets talked about (Except for Good Riddance of course). I don't think Nimrod is as good as people make it out to be but Reject is a great song. Walking Alone I don't think so though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Jonny Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Fuuckin' love Nimrod side B just as much as A. Jinx, Haushinka, Walking Alone and Reject are all terribly underrated badass tunes! Some of my favorites off Nimrod. Prosthetic Head isn't that much fun to play, but I love the lyrics and singing it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like the entire second half of Nimrod never gets talked about (Except for Good Riddance of course). I feel the same. Walking Alone is my favorite song lately. I love the lyrics and can relate to it. I love the harmonica too. It's just a great overall song, as is Jinks, Reject and the second half of Nimrod as you said. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DookieLukie Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 And this is where the Unpopular Opinions thread has landed: saying that Troublemaker is a top Green Day song. We have because a twisted, disjointed bunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Jonny Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 I like it! Certainly isn't a top GD song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouncingoffthewallbja Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 In terms of the trilogy, I think Troublemaker is a good song! Catchy and fun with a nice guitar solo!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Libertine Angel Posted December 29, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 29, 2016 Reject is fucking amazing, easily one of Nimrod's best. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dakke Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Troublemaker is less worse than Nightlife and Lady Cobra. Those songs were awful even for FBHT-recasts. The second half of Nimrod is indeed seriously underrated and underplayed. It's always Nice Guys, Hitchin', Scattered or sometimes Redundant or All the Time. Jinx/Haushinka is just awesome. My own unpopular opinion: Warning is overall a stronger album than Insomniac. EDIT: I still want Take Back live. Do it guys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hermione Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Wow just seeing the Troublemaker praise. As the official defender of that song, how nice Lady Cobra is awesome. Particularly enjoyed it live, really fun and catchy. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Jonny Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Let's all vote to have Brutal Love back in the set as some representation of the Trilogy on the upcoming tour. Maybe the guys will see and put it in. If enough people demand it, y'never know. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Jonny Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Yea, I know. Was a joke, I honestly doubt they read all this crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermione Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Yeah Brutal Love/Good Riddance is the greatest show closer of all time. I suppose that spot before Good Riddance is one of the most common times for them to pull out random/different songs too, so seems like there could be a reasonable chance of it one day. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Jonny Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Doesn't require a whole lot of rehearsal, it's still pretty fresh from the last tour. So there's a small chance at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's quite a few "golden nuggets" (as I call them ) from the Trilogy that I think would be great to hear live on the tour! e.g Brutal Love, Carpe Diem, Nuclear Family, Stay the Night, Dirty Rotten Bastards, Stop When the Red Lights Flash and Makeout Party (Mike's bass solo would be epic!!!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a few of the Trilogy shows and aside from Brutal Love I'd have to say Stray Heart was the best one that they played live. So let's not forget that one... I love your list though- from the songs that I saw them play live, I'd say that I'd love to see the following (in order): Brutal Love- one of their best Stray Heart- great live and they have a lot of fun live while Mike plays that awesome bass line Stay The Night- just a great, classic GD song Carpe Diem- they played a half step down on their old guitars when I saw this (in the middle of a bunch of Dookie songs) and it sounded awesome, SWTRLF- good energy live, although they have so many awesome live songs I wouldn't be too disappointed if they left this off 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwen Stacy Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Still breaks my heart that Wow! Thats Loud never got played live (well, once. But not after the album was released). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Jonny Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Was watching the Wreck 'n' Roll DVD last night. Too bad the entire Irving Plaza show is not on it, a serious shame in fact, they gotta release that shit! What is on it is great and Nuclear Family is so killer live, that's one that doesn't take much time and rocks quite hard! The 21st Century Breakdown songs on the first half of the DVD are a lot of fun, especially Little Girl. Crowd sucks and Billie hits some really weird notes but a descent DVD none the less. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
