Montclare Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 By the way, I still have not seen Billie Joe in the role of Charlie Chaplin in Drunk History. I can't find any videos. I was searching for that for the longest time and the most I found was like a one minute clip (I can't even remember where it was now) but I think it was a silent clip with voiceover narration. He didnt have any lines (old timey silent movie) and he looks so much like Chaplin you couldn't even tell it was him. If you have Hulu, it's on there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pacejunkie punk Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 That's was totally worth it @Montclare Really cute. I'd only seen the second bit (his scene with Buster) but the first one was 100x better. The KKK thing and their reactions were hilarious. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solongfromthestars Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I hope there'll be specific merch for Rose Bowl like there was for Oakland and Wrigley. If I make it there I'm legit considering taking out a loan to buy the jacket 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcyMoffatt Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 If you have Hulu, it's on there. I've just realised I still can't watch it. Hulu isn't available in Canada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post billietremike9324 Posted August 26, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted August 26, 2017 I'm watching a Green Day concert on YouTube and I love how energetic their shows are. It fucking pumps me up. I've had a really rough year and music in general has been my saving grace. It has kept me from completely losing my shit. Green Day's music makes me feel better when I'm angry or upset. That is a beautiful thing. <3 Just thought I'd put this out there. lol! 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billietremike9324 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 So, I was watching some Pentatonix videos and thought "I wonder what a Green Day medley by Pentatonix would sound like?" I mean, if they can cover "Bohemian Rhapsody" flawlessly, I'm sure they can find some way to make a Green Day medley work. Plus, I feel like Billie, Mike, and Tre would be honored. <3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmyxLongview Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 I finally made my own trilogy playlist and I love it I still think Uno is probably their worst album though. Only two songs from it made it onto my playlist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Kill The DJ" is catchy but, very repetitive. haha! Also, since the election this past year, I think of "DJ" as Donald Trump. Cause y'know... the first letter of his first name is D and the first letter of his middle name is J... lmao! I'm fucking stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also not sure it would work out so well. Some of those types of covers get too polished and make Green Day sound way too pop. They don't sound bad, just a bit empty. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it is, they have said before that they have a hard time doing Taylor Swift songs and she's as pop as pop can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shtrudel Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I'm still an old-fashioned who listens to music by albums and not a playlist on shuffle, and I NEVER skip songs (But bonus tracks tend to ruin the pacing of the album, so I usaually stop before them). Pulling Teeth is a song I doubt I would've listened to as a standalone. Thanks to Dookie, this is now one of my favorites from this album. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm like you, I think song order is important and as part of the album experience I like to listen to the albums front to back as intended. It's the only way I can listen to 21CB and RevRad too has a very purposeful song order that I love. It may not be a concept album but the song order does tell a story in a way about Billie's thoughts and feelings from one given moment to the next, shifting from the personal to the social to the political to the nostalgic and back again. I love the song order of that album. 💚 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listening albums from front to back is indeed a far superior experience, particularly in the case of prog rock records, though most good LPs just sound better when sitting through them in their entirety. I'd personally never shuffle American Idiot or 21st Century Breakdown (or Revolution Radio for that matter). EDIT: spelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post thundercatmary Posted August 30, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted August 30, 2017 So I was just watching some old Green Day vids on YouTube and it's so crazy to me, even though they have come a long way since I first heard them in the 90's I still see all the same love and passion in their performances. I just think it's pretty amazing to be a band for so long, and still be just as passionate about your band and music after all this time. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post herewegoagain Posted August 30, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted August 30, 2017 Call me pathetic call me what you will but all the hilarious stuff they've posted this morning on top of all the beautiful pictures from the past few days and watching the one clip I made of OW in Gothenburg (best night of my life) over and over recently, have me wheezing with laughter and literally crying all at once. I love them so much I didn't know it was possible <3<3<3 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pouty bitch Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I actually love 1,039 Smoothed Out Slappy Hours so much. I listened to the entire album last night. Even before Tre came along, they were an amazing band, and Tre just made them even better. There's not one bad song on that album - hell, I even like Rest. I love Billie's vocals on it, too. Voice of an absolute angel. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voice of an absolute angel. SAME!! I actually liked it better than Kerplunk at first, I found the melodies catchier and easier to get into on first hearing (Kerplunk took a few more plays to love). I LOVE the harmonies (Rest!) and the plain sophistication (guitar solos!) for a couple of teenagers. I still can't believe Billie was all of 15-17 when he wrote most of it. His talent blows me away and I shake my head and laugh every time I hear this album , it's so much better than it has a right to be. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
