Cause over half the album isn't enough 😂 AI should be played, Holiday should be played, BOBD can't be removed, so as Letterbomb and JOS, and i would also like to see WMUWSE, Whatsername and Homecoming into the set.

Jaded Nimrod Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Our encore in Tampa was fucking awesome. Billie did acoustic 21 Guns and Good Riddance; not Ordinary World. Didn't play Stuart and the Ave, which was a bummer. Minority was played, hell yeah!, But Forever Now was the last song before the encores began... FUCK YEAH!

CherryBombs&Gasoline Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 To be honest, I wouldn't mind if they remove JOS. It's a great song, probably their most ambitious one, but they could play two or even three other songs in that time. That would bring some more variety into their setlist. They could play one more song from Insomniac or Nimrod and another one from AI, like Give me Novacaine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even close. I know it has being the song a lot of people consider their best/most accomplished going for it but other than that I don't think it's anything particularly special live, they don't really do much with it and there's many other songs on the setlist that are more entertaining as live performances including most of the other AI ones. And Forever Now blows it out of the water as far as being powerful/emotional live. When they're already playing so many other AI songs I don't think it's essential.

Beerjeezus Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Forever Now has to stay. I don't care if they stop playing American Idiot, but I want FN. And right now I feel like I need to experience Brain Stew/Jaded live asap. They could do it and the metal medley instead of Knowledge on some nights.

Same, but I'd like to see Give Me Novacaine instead of Whatsername. I saw video of Whatsername being played acoustic in 2010 and I felt it was lacking something. I'd only really want to see Whatsername live if it was full band. 5 hours ago, Hermione said: Greatest live song though? Not even close. I disagree. It's been my favorite at all three shows I went to. Hitchin' A Ride being a close second at the first and third shows I went to. 5 hours ago, Justin said: I'd be content with next tour they have a rotation going Forever Now, JOS and Homecoming. Honestly I'd feel cheated if I got "Forever Now" instead of "Jesus of Suburbia" or "Homecoming". "Forever Now" is a great song, but "Jesus of Suburbia" and "Homecoming" are classics.

It's not at that level. To be honest, "Forever Now" would only be my 6th or 7th favorite song off Revolution Radio if I was to rank them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be devastated if they didn't play JOS. That might be my favorite song they've ever written. Or at least tied with a few others. I wish they'd move Forever Now up out of the closing slot. I'm usually too tired to fully appreciate it there and it's too mid tempo. I think it would work better just a little bit earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No i don't think that it's that great song live, but as it's their greatest song imo it should be played, and it works great well, of course not fantastic, but i still think it's great live.

deadair Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I was glad they played "Knowledge" this tour. The kid that came up to play guitar at my show did a fantastic job! It was definitely a highlight. I wish they'd do it with a audience bassist and audience drummer again someday though since I never got to see that.

The Bellie Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I've never done that much setlist anticipation or criticism, apart from saying I've always loved their setlists through years and the RevRad setlist has truly enchanted me, but here's what I expect / hope for the future: 1. Green Day will continue to play rare/old songs quite episodically and more often on smaller venues. While I'll probably only be able to attend big venues in the close future - if there are shows within my reach in a close future, which I'll be extremely grateful for - I perfectly understand that I will have little chance to watch rare songs with my own eyes. It doesn't bother me though, because a mainstream song of one time becomes a rare song of another time, and the boys play what they feel the best playing at each time / each tour. Now, here are my personal hopes for the following tour: 2. Bang Bang, Still Breathing and Forever Now won't disappear from the setlist. It ain't easy, but I would be willing to them sacrificing Revolution Radio (song) and Youngblood as to give place to new songs. But deep inside, I wish they would keep playing Bang Bang + Revolution Radio as they have kept Holiday + Letterbomb, or else skip a few AI songs instead of RevRad for the same purpose (making place for new songs). Would that be possible to keep as many songs of both AI and RevRad as currently in the setlist for the next record? I wish that, if they have to choose between a few songs on AI and some on RevRad, they choose to keep those on RevRad. I won't insist on saying that them playing Outlaws or Bouncing Off The Walls or Say Goodbye live would be my greatest pleasure, because I love these songs and have no idea what they would sound live. I only know that I would love them even more. That being said, and these are my thoughts at 3:00 AM on Thursday , what I know for sure is that I wish the boys to keep up with the same passion and pleasure they've always shown and especially on this tour, and I trust any choice they'll make.

Always wanted to see it for myself so glad to get the chance, and when he brought the girl up to play it was a really sweet moment. It did used to take a loooooooong time to do the whole band though lol, as fond of watching on stage traditions/antics as I am even I have to admit it was a bit much for them to spend like 15 minutes searching to find a band to play for like the last 1 minute of a song . I think it was a smart choice to streamline it to just the guitarist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
