Green Day inducted into the Hall Of Fame

Recommended Posts

There's no real good answer why John or Jason wasn't inducted but a member of RHCP who joined a few months before their induction was as the HOF have rules but will break or ignore them at their convenience really they should just tear up their official rules as they never follow them as last year they told KISS only the members who played on their first album could be inducted but told Nirvana only Kurt Krist and Dave could be inducted and Chad couldn't cause he wasn't a member BUT if they followed what they told KISS than Dave couldn't been inducted it'd have to be Chad so HOF doesn't really have rules they have a "whatever we feel like at the moment" policy

Holy Run-On Sentence, Batman.

It was funny, because the whole time I couldn't stop looking at him seemingly rehearsing what he was about to say in his head while they spoke. I was like "Oh god, stop talking to yourself. You're on TV. Stop talking to yourself." :lol: It was SO cute, though. He seemed fine once he started talking, but I guess the fact that he was just using "talking points," as he called them, had him worrying about what he'd say as an introduction.

I was thinking the same thing! :lol:

I wish Billie tweeted/instagrammed something about these past events. Show up, Billie!

I will wait for...whenever you're able to clear it up, as some names exist in all mentioned bands (or they existed in the past) and I really, really am confused.

Some names exist in what bands? What do you mean?

My post is very clear HOF doesn't follow the "official" rules they make them up as they go

I just watched the video of the three songs they played and man, it's so weird to hear him sing "calling out to idiot america" :D

I sang it automatically and was like "Oh, this is new."

You could clearly tell he was in total shock at the ceremony. I doubt he could put anything into words right now, tbh.

Does anybody know when pro shot footage will be out?

May 30th HBO will air the ceremony.

Careful, Hermione will ban you if you start this fight again :ninja:

I'd hope that she appreciates my Harold & Kumar reference and considers my overall excellent* contributions to this site before deciding to ban me!

*the merits of this adjective could be debated

I remember getting pro-shot induction speeches and performances the day GNR got inducted though. Also, Billie said that they only ever had two producers but didn't Larry Livermore produce 1039?

I think he was holding back tears at the start & sucked it up emotionally and his nose got a little runny :lol:

That cause HBO and HOF didn't have a deal then that start last year

And Andy Ernst is credited with producing 1039 and Kerplunk unless Andy is just a nickname for Larry

That makes sense. I was actually wondering why he was doing that, too. Basically during the entire speech I kept thinking "Oh Armstrong, what the fuck are you doing? Geez, what are you doing now?" I thought these things lovingly, of course. :lol:

They should have thanked Kurt Lohmiller though. Green Day would be nothing without the Bumblebee.

Yeah you're right, Andy is credited with co-producing both albums. Still, did the band thank him in the speech or am I missing something?

I'm honestly surprised they played two Dookie tracks. I knew they would most likely play Basket Case, but WICA was a pleasant surprise. Ugh, I just can't wait to see this on TV in HD. :eyebrows:

No just credited Rob and Butch they've also been produced by Jerry Finn (JAR and the new tracks on ISH) Chris Dugan (FBHT) and themselves (Warning was self produced)

Tho 1039 and Kerplunk are hardly produced more like he just recorded the band lol

So apparently Billie Joe's classic white LPJ is in the hall of fame exhibit... which I guess means it won't be used anymore :(
