Re-listening to Kerplunk! tonight an holy bujeezus Tré is a monster with the drum fills on Welcome To Paradise

????? im not sure if she thought out the fact that it wouldve been that hot before wearing all that paint. and i also don't know if she considered the fact that she would probably be there for more than an hour...

thank you and you're welcome! this might become my job. professional fangirl feeder...

I saw some posts saying it was a private party and none of us saw anything about it beforehand so I wouldn’t beat yourself up about it! Billie usually posts about these shows so just keep an eye out.

We have 100s of CDs which we loaded onto a pc and then iPods (yes, I know but they were brilliant in so many ways) but iTunes/Apple music has become such a nightmare that last year we switched to streaming. I really hate how Spotify etc treat artists but what is the alternative? We still have some iPods and hubby has been looking into going back to an old version of iTunes but it’s a pain. I am torn between the convenience of streaming versus physical media. Physical media will always be better to me but the bulk can become huge. As @Dingle said, nothing beats the whole experience of buying that album, looking at the sleeve, reading the notes but goodness it’s easier to move a smart phone around!

Sorry that requires a master's degree

I do both, but it is more convenient to listen to streamed music. I have a lot of CDs. Yes, I listen to them a lot, and if there is a nationwide blackout and no electricity, I still have a CD player and batteries. . For vinyls, yes I have a record player, but it is just more of a collecters thing. I only buy records if its an anniversary album or a cool print, otherwise i could just buy the CD for less or stream it. I believe it supports the band more or the record label more to buy CD's, and who wouldn't want to support their favorite bands

I am unreasonably disappointed about missing this concert. This was about 3 hours away from me, so definitely could have driven there. But I didn’t know about it until it was happening. I know that realistically I probably couldn’t have gone on the spur of the moment like that anyway, because I have too much happening at home and work right now. But I still can’t help feeling that I really missed out, I guess because their concerts are few and far between. I really hope there will be more Bay Area shows in the near future!

Yesss! This photo is from the concert I attended

The show was announced some nine hours prior to the event on the Green Day IG account, with the offer to sign up for tickets. I saw it but well, California is far away... And obviously few were lucky to get tickets anyway.

Keep working on it though, seems like you could achieve it 😉

Rumor has it that Green Day's next album will be all about Cup Noodles. You guys better be glad I've moved on from making fake tracklists because.......I'm tempted.

I have never seen that picture lolllll. When you think youve seen it all......

i actually listen to them... i like to listen to them on cd/vinyl before i stream them unless i genuinely cant find it anywhere. i don't know what it is but it gives me a better feeling. i also really like playing my records, since usually i listen to music on my headphones, plus i like speeding things uo and down... its cool, maybe i should be a dj... anyways, i do stream my music a lot though. i unfortunately dont have a lot of records and most of my cds i love, however im missing a ton like insomniac, the trilogy, warning, etc, both on vinyl and cd...

Today is the 34th anniversary of Kerplunk. I love this record. And I love „Words I might have ate“, and I‘ve just found the following video: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DSQcxLIiI-x/?igsh=MThsbmc0MzdibDBlcQ== Billie sounds amazing, and Tre singing is so cool (so it’s Tre Cool😜). Love it!

i am the master of finding pictures i had that in my gallery for a month... i never thought i'd have a use for it lol

Exactly what I was thinking 😨

Youre a good fangirl feeder hahah WOO. Thank you for the Biliie pics That smile in the first ones

Got myself some early Christmas presents!😃

ofc! yea u did, i think a diff version of it was your profile for a bit too! tysm!!!

WOAH THAT LOOKS SICK!!! THE DETAIL IS AWESOME 🔥🔥🔥

im likely not going to finish this in the span of a month, so i'll just put it here for now... (posted the outdted version earlier oops) i'm gonna get really mad if i forget how to draw billie again after this, because i spent 30 minutes re learning his face again after forgetting it because of a stupid 2 day art block period. if i dont remember how to do it i'll probably cry. seriously anyways, this was originally an idea for an album (well, single) cover for a song i'm making right now... i'm sad i can't keep billie on it but it was good practice i guess

ofc!!! <33 aww thanks!! :DD lol yeah!! i think i posted that on my profile before Xb

i'm not glad at all... you never gave me a chance to see it oh well... anyway, it is all cup noodles. its called cup noodletown and it turns out that's where st jimmy went after all this time

damn it

sick!!!!! i remember the first one xp tysm!!!!!!!!! ❤️

Billie dressed up with the Cup Noodles costume while singing St. Jimmy (Brasilia, 2010) Also, in this show, there was an argentinian girl dressed all in green (would you call it a onesie, maybe?), face, arms and hair all painted in green as well. And it was hot as fuck... that Green paint must've itched like hell

I download the CDs onto the computer and listen to them that way. My record player has needed replacing for a long time so I can't play the vinyls I collect currently

Today's technology allows me to download all GD stuff in MP3 onto my moby (cell) all safely stored in a cloud, in preference to streaming. And that's really cool. But, imho, the output quality on mobile phones just ain't the same as vinyl. The sound quality of vinyl is something else, there's no comparison, again imho. So, out and about it's headphones on with my moby. But at home, it's vinyl time, speakers on full blast, jump up and down and blow my fuckin' head off. Awesome. Also, maybe it's me, but there's a sorta affinity when buying a vinyl record like a photo, a snapshot in time. Back in December '91, after seeing GD live for the first time, I couldn't wait to get hold of my copy of Kerplunk from my local underground (literally) record store. The feeling of queuing up to collect my copy from the guy behind the counter. My whole body is shaking with excitement. But first, the inspection. The guy carefully takes the record out of it's sleeve making sure not to touch the record surface. Shows me each side of record. But wait, there's a mark there, is that a scratch. Fuck that, another copy please, it must be perfect. Leave the store with my copy in shiny plastic bag. My personal vinyl copy that would be a part of me and change my life for ever. Body, soul and spirit. Both the music and the lyrics. More valuable than a bar of gold. It's scratched to fuck now, cover totally trashed.(Got a new copy though). And still brings back, not only the thrill of an amazing new sound at the time, but what was going on in my life at the time. And this feeling repeated itself every time I bought each new GD record, in vinyl of course.

yeah, i normally use cds most of the time :DD (my parents have so many from when they were young) like, especially in our car cause i hate the songs on the radio so much lmao XD and i have a cd player in our house too which is pretty handy :3 i use spotify an all sometimes like at school and shit tho XDD

Yes, he said "Nice try!" and took back the guitar. But we preferred to have Billie play it himself anyway!

I saw this guy on stage trying to play Wonderwall instead of Good Riddance.😂

I didn't see this. But my sister read about someone having to go to the hospital afterwards because they got Tre's drumstick thrown in their face, lol. They were happy because they got the drumstick though lol.

Mine was either Good Riddance or Brain Stew

something about this outfit...

That's sleep paralysis demon Billie. Cursed!

Pretty sure it’s from this

just found these! i might be turning into a billie fanboy. i just caught myself giggling at these...

That’s probably a good way to go into it, that way you have no preconceived biases
