Marki. Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 I like the drunk bunny I feel like it wouldn't be a Green Day show without him. And I wish they'd play Do You Remember Rock'n'Roll Radio? before coming on stage again, I still get the feeling of butterflies in my stomach every time I hear it It's perfect.

Mary Daze Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 I also love the drunk bunny!! These are just the 2-3 minutes when it finally really hits me that i am seeing GD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe K Posted January 8, 2017 Author Share Posted January 8, 2017 I'm actually ok with the drunk bunny too cause it's kind of a tradition now tbh, but a new intro for the actual show needs to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedundantIdiot Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 I can see why people who have been to numerous GD shows don't like seeing the same things over and over- but there seems to be a lot of fans here, myself included, who are about to see their 1st GD gig this year. Also, with a band like GD a lot of new fans come on board all the time. I guess we'll have to wait and what's new this year. Perhaps they might come onto the stage in those masks?!

Yeah I get what you mean, but every big band does something new on a new tour, whether they have a lot of fans or not. But you're right, we have to wait and see.

Joe K Posted January 8, 2017 Author Share Posted January 8, 2017 A guy who apparently has worked for adeline records commented on Green Day Authoritys facebook post about the setup photo, that the setup is not complete. Don't know if this means anything but I sure hope so! He just said that there is an catwalk. But then again this guy could have no connections at all so we'll not know before the show.

St. Jonny Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 5 whole metres. That should get everybody at the front something to reach to. They should have staircases and shit on stage that Billie and Mike can run around throughout the show like AC/DC and other big bands have. I'm fine with it being totally about the music though, that's why I am going. As I type this Longview just came on the radio, killer!! Ohman, the shitty edited version, why even put this shit on the radio with edits on the best parts. So wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exciting Yeah, I'm hoping for a catwalk too, with some pyro and Pink Bunny. I think the props and use of effects must match the intimacy and size of the venue they are playing in. Arenas and stadia really do deserve some of that stuff, whilst the bells and whistles at club shows are preferably kept to a minimum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I once saw Behemoth in a tiny venue and they had huge screens, pyro (fireworks, flamethrowers, co2 canons and confetti machines) and it was just WAY TOO MUCH for that small indoor venue it looked ridiculous! For smaller shows less is good and for bigger shows: bring on some extras, they don't have to be expensive or over the top but some screens and some bang bang would be nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything Tré can mess with They will have smoke/ haze 100% because of the lighting the co2 canons are something else though, but they'll probably have it, those aren't too expensive. Fireworks are the only very expensive thing, and since it's an arena tour they won't have too much of that either way. I loved the confetti machines and flamethrowers of past tours though let's see what they'll have. But screens (onstage not just next to it) and a catwalk would make me super happy already! Especially since a catwalk is not just nice for looking at Billie running up and down on it but also it separates the crowd and decreases shoving around.

Well I think the screens are out of question By looking at the picture tbh. There's one thing that crossed my mind though, what if this setup for the first show is just an alternative option for smaller stages like they had on the 21cb tour for some festivals in europe and for the south american shows? It could be possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which was a festival performance during the 21st CB Summer tour. That setup was pretty close to the one they used in South America. It got stripped down due to high costs for transportation, etc. The entire tour was a loss in money for the band. On the latest picture which was taken yesterday I am able to see confetti canons. Pretty sure they're about to return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
