I would do disgusting, horrible things to hear 8th Avenue Serenade played live. On that topic, I wonder why the trilogy has become a fan favorite. Rose colored glasses? Not that I’m complaining, that’s the first project I was a fan for from beginning to end so it has a very special place in my heart. It just seems to have the widest variance between general reception and fan opinion.

My bf called me out the other day. He made fun of my fan girlisms by going "ooo Billie is so hawt. Oh Billie Joe is soooo cute." Glad he thinks so too 😆

That was a massive show! Without several eyewitnesses AND complete recordings I wouldn't have believed people, just looking at the setlist.

I'd take American Eulogy over anything else. It's one of their two best live songs along with Forever Now. Wouldn't be hard to change the problematic lyric. I would also love more trilogy (8th Avenue Serenade!!!!!!) but I'm sure I've said that before

What was the full set list? And why not just release the whole thing already?

I think "Just a bunch of snowflakes" works perfectly well.

So this time when my boyfriend and I were in the car listening to Sirius we heard a bump from Mike! He was introducing She. Now I just need to hear a Tre bump on our next trip lol

i mean, dont we have the full audio from this show (including covers)? really feel like it was pointless though to throw on ABM from this show as a bonus to the AI20 doc instead of like Take Back

Awesome find! However, I do not like his comment regarding the Warfield recordings (the part where he says we will never see the rest of it) 😂😒

I’ve been seeing various things that there has been a lot of misinformation about this so not sure what the truth is.

https://www.reddit.com/r/greenday/s/TVSZlIOMCH See the screenshot above of the YouTube comment by summerfazed (Greg Schneider). He says Mike wrote Stay Young. Comment in the link:

I think Mike said something once like "if we find something more fun to do we'll do that but until then..." So true, if you got to be onstage playing like that, why would you retire?

That's fucken disgusting 🤬 I hope hell is real

Thanks for replying, and in such detail, I really appreciate it. I think it would be hard to be welcoming and buddy buddy constantly, especially on a tour like that where you're living on top of people. Though I remember watching the behind the scenes thing at the time and thinking, I bet Green Day insisted on playing first just to show up Blink182 😆

As I’ve said in some other thread, I will be staying at the stage all day. Screw alcohol and food. I will be trying to be as close as possible. And I shall convince Green Day that they need a 4th live guitarist thank you very much.

i saw a short of someone playing it once where they changed that line to something J6 related

Solution: update the lyrics to be more topical. It works for American Idiot, why not American Eulogy? "Because the martyr is a compulsive liar when he said it's just a bunch of Antifa throwing gas into the hysteria" In reality it'll never happen because adding it back into the setlist would just kick up dust and cause a controversy that they do not need. Still a pump-ass song though.

Hitchin' a Ride is one of the "deep cuts" more likely to be played on any given night because it was a live staple for so, so long that people still know it. Are they even doing encores anymore? I thought it pretty much went straight from Bobby Sox into Good Riddance, with no pause for an encore. St. Jimmy works by itself. Not every song has to fit a narrative all the time. In live shows, it's a quick little "go fucking mental" number played for a crowd that's just waiting for excuses to go fucking mental. If it were ten minutes long, I'd get dropping it. Speaking of ten-minute-long songs... BLASPHEMY Mine typically happen because I'm listening to an album and go, "Oh, hey, you know what would sound really good and fit well right here?". It's not really an intentional thing, it just happens when I come across a little chain of songs that works well together. The title track from Warning? Nah. They should play Minority more often instead. But seriously, Waiting needs a lot more love than it gets, if we're talking about underplayed songs. Also, someone please bribe Billie Joe to put American Eulogy back in the set. He doesn't have to mention who's throwing gas into the hysteria.

Thanks a million 🙂

How long has BIAB been on Spotify in Canada and why am I only discovering this today?!?!

Me: I still love Green Day but I'm not THAT bothered anymore, you know? Me after updating the Love is for Losers page on GDA: Check out my favourite tattoo that looks like shit but is the best anyway, my bride of Frankenstein based on a beautiful lyric with layers of meaning by the utterly incomparable genius Billie Joe Armstrong. In this essay I will

This makes so much sense! It really has Trilogy vibes. It also has one of my least favorite lines in any Green Day song ("I wanna hold you like a gun, we'll shoot the moon into the sun" ??? 😅). Definitely in my bottom two songs for RevRad. Not gonna lie though, I'd still would have loved to hear it live though.

The website doesn't exist anymore. The merch package was sold in 2014. I don't think it ever sold out so there probably aren't many of the packages out there, but your best bet is to save a search on eBay.

No, just the same bonus track as the regular Japanese Saviors (Fever)
