bioshockerxx Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Is it too much to ask for 21cbd to be the opener again? I understand that it was only used as an opener during that tour period but I absolutely think it's a great opener. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.C Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Don't know why people are complaining about te Trilogy being excluded, that whole era was a flop. The fact that only one 21CB song is only being played is more worrying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm hoping for Somewhere Now for the arena shows though, it will make me cry right at the beginning but that's okay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOE THE X-KID Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I'm okay with know your enemy being in the set but it seems so weird being the opener, bang bangs much better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.C Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Why is KYE on there over 21 guns when the latter was a much bigger hit? Then again, 21 Guns is a bigger hit than like 85% of the rest of the set list anyway (just like WMUWSE..) Green Day logic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanPak Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I feel like Too Dumb to Die could work as an opener if they do it right. All the stage lights could be off while the weird lo-fi intro is playing, and the band could walk onstage unseen at that point. Then after the intro ends Tre counts them in, and the song kicks off as the lights all come on. Know Your Enemy needs to be retired from the setlist I think.

Joe K Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Somewhere now has to be the opening song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedundantIdiot Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I guess they're still in the process of rehearsing the new songs, but I'd like to hear Outlaws and Too Dumb to Die sometime soon. I'm surprised KYE is the 1st song, and for the love of god they need to replace KFAD with some rare songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlissaGoesRAWR Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Bang Bang was an amazing opener. I have no idea why they fucked that up. It's not like people haven't been into it/singing along. The only justification I can think is that usually for the first song, the fans aren't paying too much attention to what's being played because they're in a state of shock about the band being right in front of them. By the time the second or third song rolls around you can actually begin processing what's going on (at least that's how it is for me, anyway).

And I don't think any of us should criticize them for that. Thanks for sharing... where is this from? I'd like to see the whole post/article. Seems very interesting.

Sarcasm Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I think it's hard for the band themselves to make setlist these days. They have to play the hits, thats just how it is, not everyone going is as big a fan as us who frequent this board. In addition, lets not gorget that they have like 150+ songs, the majority of which are great live songs. You can't satisfy everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(There's a lot more than that) 43 songs from compilation albums. At least 122 live covers At least 56 live versions of songs (There's a lot more than that) At least 193 side-project / other band songs That's at least 597 songs Green Day have. But the number is WAAAY higher. They always record tons more for albums. My personal estimate of how many Green Day songs have is: 1288 songs. In short: Yeah, I think they have a tough job at picking out what to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nowhere Man Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 I really wish there will be that random All By Myself/Dominated Love Slave appearance during one of the shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greendepent Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Recent shows have improved, but they are repeating formulas again. Still, they are repeating songs they haven't played in long time, so it's ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unextraordinarygirl Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 I hate that they open with KYE. Bang Bang was a much better opening song. All KYE does is gives Billie license for 3 million hey ohs and hey chants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't playing the hits though WMUWSE and 21 Guns are easily in their top 5 most iconic and both have been cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got too many, [just look at this setlist,](http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/green-day/2016/hollywood-palladium-hollywood-ca-bfd5d1e.html) a large portion of it are singles, aside from a couple of little little blocks shuffled in.

I know, what I'm saying is that those two songs were the wrong ones to be cut for the reason I have already stated. A lot of those songs on that set list were not even hits, much more disposable.
