I can understand Favourite Son, but Governator or Too Much Too Soon could've been an angry St Jimmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlissaGoesRAWR Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Too Much Too Soon is the only one I can see working, but in the same vein as She's a Rebel. It'd be a fun, but weaker track. However, Letterbomb already serves as a sort of "breakup song" and is clearly stronger, which is why the band probably executed some self control (for once) and cut it. Favorite Son and Governator are political, sure, but I'll always argue American Idiot really isn't a political album in the first place. I just don't think they're of the same caliber as the rest of the album, and they'd also feel out of place in the storyline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Dude Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Any of the American Idiot B-sides should be played live (Governator and/or Favourite Son should have been in the album) Green Day doesn't play ANY non-album songs live....I know the majority of people wouldn't know them, but if they heard them live, they would! Play all the hits, and sprinkle in fan favorites and rarities. Like I said earlier, the band has SO many songs that will probably never be heard live and it's sad. Really sad. Maybe at Green Day's final concert (hopefully years and years away) they will end with Haha You're Dead and smash their guitars. Haha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 it's probably a good idea to set aside some dollars for Green Day's final concerts. Wouldn't want to miss those Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Dude Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Don't even say it. I know. Good Riddance will almost definitely be the final song Green Day ever performs. Followed by Platypus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoungBlood Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Nimrod never really gets as much attention as it should . Tracks like Prosthetic Head - Worry Rock - Uptight - All The Time - Jinx ; should be played more ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
