GDM Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Here is the list that I have from the North American Tour 2009. I'll update as much as I can. Storytime with Green Day – or More Specifically, Billie. 1. MSG1: Sunset Boulevard Fight with Adrienne and Brando. 2. Twins Convention on Acid Via Whatsername868: “Tampa he said that they were driving once somewhere down near Mexico, and Tre had some acid so they all took some. That night they went to a hotel and would see a person, then turn around and see their double someplace else. Later they found out it was a Twin’s Convention.” 3. Pissing – Closet and Hanger, Albany: This story is hilarious and I have to find some video on it. Thanks to greenday801440 for the video and the link! 4. Pissing – Guinness and Suitcase – Ireland Pissing I - Ireland Pissing II - Ireland 5. Pissing – Sleepwalking and Naked (Nashville, via TeenageLush): “Nashville he told the story at the beginning of are we the waiting, and it was something about how whenever he gets drunk he sleepwalks. Apparently they were staying on the first floor of a hotel and he end[ed up] sleep walking to the fifth floor and woke up butt as naked, Jason White walked it on him and was like, “ew”" 6. Sleepy in Copenhagen (an old one, but who wants to sleep with a head in a bottle?) MSG2. 7. Tattoo and Anal Sex with Ricky. Orlando. 8. Skinhead Fight (I don’t remember where this story took place.) 9. Playing in a Harrisburg living room. He mentioned that there are Youtube videos of the band playing in a living room back in the day. Told at Pittsburgh. 10. Hamilton: via .:Whatsername:. “It’s been a long time hasn’t it? It’s been like half a fucking decade. What the fuck’s up with that shit? How are you all doing?! This is like family now, shit! Everybody here’s my fucking cousin. I never knew this but I’m Canadian.” He also did some shoutout to bands that they had played with in Toronto in like 1993 before “Are We the Waiting” and said “It wasn’t that long ago, but we waited around and here we are. Are “We the Waiting!” 11: Scared in Detroit (just a snippet) Via Angie-Marie, “the first time we played Detroit, I think it was 1990, I was like 18 and we played with the Generals, and Detroit scared the fucking shit outta me”. 12.: The moral of the story of “She,” MSG1): Via lilacdreamer: “You know, the moral of the story is, is that when you’re in the heat of a passionate moment, with someone that you fucking love, you will fucking do anything for them. Its not just the fight to prove that you’re right, but it’s a fight that you fucking do it together to make it right. You know what I’m saying?” 13. Boston: via XCourt: Billie talked their early days when they played a show in Providence, RI (I think he also said that was their first show in New England, correct me if I’m wrong) and they met a guy (forget the name) who has been really good friends with the the band ever since and he was in the audience that night. That was Billie’s only anecdote for the night. 14. Philly: Via MascaraTears: before Before the Lobotomy, he was just talking to a guy who brought binoculars, and saying stuff like, “it would be the guy from jersey who brings binoculars.” 15: Fargo: via Taylor_k2008: “Billie explained that it was Green Day’s first official time playing in Fargo because they had to cancel the show there 10 years ago due to Tre’ having a foot fungus. Then after a bit – Billie was still talking and was like, “Hold on…something is sticking in my ass…” Then he tried to fix his mic box thing I think… then continued “…and that’s not the first time I had something sticking in my ass…actually, I think that it might have been Tre’s foot in my ass before.” Lol saying that’s probably why he got a foot fungus. That’s not word for word obviously – but that’s the best I can explain it. Haha. Close enough.” 16: Houston via Teenage Kicks!: “Houston was like…him talking about coming to Texas as Foxboro (which I was lucky enough to see! ) and how he “rode a bull named Lisa….and how she had nice….” then he said “uh nevermind” and started laughing. XD” 17: St. Louis: St. Louis’ story was about him drinking his brother’s urine when he was kid, and that’s he’s done it a few times in other situations since. 18: Family in Nashville introduction. Additional Nashville. 19. Billie Joe with his Mom in Salt Lake City: Billie Joe and Ollie 20. Kansas City, “Beautiful Girl” 21. San Jose introducing Family (No longer on youtube. 22: Minneapolis, Mankato and Adrienne No longer on Youtube. 23. Denver, Co. via karma1215 and ChibiLauryn: Here is another story but I'm not sure where he was when he told the story. He said they were on tour and he had the worst hang over he ever had and ten minutes before they went on the stage he had on his red tie and he was standing in front of the toilet puking and crying at the same time .... he said you know that feeling you get when you've drank so much you vow never to drink again.... can someone corroborate this story I saw it on you tube. 24. Via Karma 1215, Story from Montreal: He talks about how Montreal is a rock and roll town and how they basically know how to enjoy themselves. Great story thumbsup. <img src="http://www.greendaycommunity.org/Forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsup.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="thumbsup.gif" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angela. Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I saw the video on YouTube of Billie talking about beating the shit out of that guy. That was great. And the classical Sleepy story is great, as well. I'd love to see a video of the pissing in the closet story, is there a video of that on YouTube somewhere? *searches*Anyways, Billie told us at our show that the first time GD played in Pennsylvania was back in... 1990, I think, in a living room in Harrisburg. He said that we could find the videos on YouTube. I looked for them and found them. They were pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teenage Kicks!

I feel like the worst fucking fan ever right n ---- Oh.' And the story he told about diving through a vehicle's window and beating the shit out of a random guy was awesome ... I wonder if it was 100% true, though. I mean, I can't picture how he dove fully into the backseat, LMAO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angie-Marie Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 In Detroit, he talked about the first time he came here in 1990 when they were playing with the band The Generals and being scared out of his mind to be in Detroit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reality Is Due Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I love it now that Billie's giving us these stories! I'm proud to have been there for the one where he beat up the guy who insulted him while he was still on with Adie. He was so adorable just telling the story. I hope he does this for the rest of the tour, it's a lot of fun hearing these stories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarahnade. Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I think Storytime may be the best thing about a Green Day show =)It's great that he can connect with his fans and tell stories like this. Most frontmen won't interact with the fans at all because they're too busy trying to look cool. That doesn't matter to Billie. What matters to Billie is that his fans get their money's worth and have the time of their lives, and I saw them on 7/13/09, and I definitely had the best night ever.I hope he continues with these stories because they just make the show. I mean, look at us. We're all talking about them. That means something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
