Someone who was a full adult at the time with a good memory, do you remember the day the band announced American Idiot? I know that the single came out on August 6th but what about the aesthetic (new logo cover ecc...) ? I'm curious cause it was the first time the band took such a change in their career.

Tune in tokyo + f.o.d. and she live from poprocks & coke single from same concert than warning 25 have either much more sound quality

Not sure I even think live stuff is necessarily added value TBH. Many of their performances have been bootlegged and shared to death on the internet since the days of P2P like Kazaa and Limewire and much of it has migrated over to YouTube. Unless it's absolutely exceptional quality like BIAB, this stuff ain't worth bundling in. The Warning anniversary live set is no better than anything you can find out there for free. I'm pretty sure I have a "Tune In, Tokyo" CD lying around here from the same tour, it's from 2001 and is no worse in quality.

Give it twenty years 🙂 Personally I love the new songs but tbf you can’t compare a new deluxe edition of an already new album with an anniversary boxset

that or demos+Ballyhoo and maybe Underdog and or Fuck Off (because there still needs to be a bad song on the deluxe)

I don’t know… I really love Ballyhoo, Belushi and Underdog. So for me the deluxe was worth it. As for the live show I so much hope for a Saviors live album plus DVD! Maybe for Christmas…?

Honestly the quality of those songs were not worth the deluxe release imo. If they would've thrown in a live show it would make that release feel worth it to me.

do keep in mind that there were some tapes that were damaged also those 3 unheard of songs that we've heard for a while that werent in the box are closely tied into Cigarettes and Valentines, so theres that as well overall, im glad it isnt Anthology 4 (which was a fucking shitshow)

This video is cute!!!😍

As a huge fan of a good Billie-Mike bromance moment, I can say this is true, but also that bar is not very high

it's probably just cuz im another gay dude.. sometimes we wish everyone else was gay 😔

100%

Saviors deluxe gave us five new songs at least. Had we gotten five never before heard tracks with this Warning boxset, we’d all be losing our shit over it. My favorite things to come out of these boxsets are songs like Black Eyeliner and Place inside my Head not to mention all the American Idiot goodies.

Photos from other show, less than 50 % volume than rest of the album... Bootleg quality

Is anyone else bothered by the fact that the 2001 live show cd cover is photos from 1998 show?

I think 21st Century Breakdown will be the best anniversary release…maybe we get Olivia? Or Dreamcatcher? They wrote over 40 songs and the live at fox theatre where they played the full album would be sick. High quality version of restless heart syndrome?!?! Can’t wait.

yeah, i know, it's kind of odd that's what comes off to me

Thank you! Now that I've listened again and picked up on the difference - yeah, that's a doozy of an unforced error

This was a fine boxset. Demos are interesting. Otis mixes are good. The live show....it was good but jeez does it need some editing. I do not want 11 minutes of Knowledge. I also don't want long pauses with faint crowd cheering where I assume the guys are doing something on stage. Watching it is fine but whatever is happening doesn't translate well for an audio recording. Some of the live songs I loved like Castaway and Blood Sex and Booze but everything else? Eh.... It really wore out its welcome. Also I compared warning 25 to the other sets and while warning 25 is solid I'm so happy for the price drop because the bonus goodies are lacking. The dookie one had so much cool random stuff that made the sticker price worth it. I'm always happy for a green day anniversary release but I agree they should take a break from it. They're starting to feel a bit undercooked (cough cough Saviors deluxe).

True!😂

That’s funny, I think he’s the straightest of them.

im not sure what it is, but mike dirnt, to me at least, just gives off transgender vibes....... no idea why very confusing...

I believe that is the case, yes. I think the ending is slightly truncated on the Shenanigans version is what's up, and that's the version on the box.

As someone from Denmark this is wild to see!
