I don’t have a photo at hand right now but in Paraguay Billie wore those classic black and white Converse again after a long time. I like this. Somehow those shoes symbolize Californian punk rock to me.🤣 Love it!😍

I saw „St. Jimmy“ too. Exactly what I was thinking…😂

Geek stink breath was released in sept 95 and stuck with mewas released in uk and Japan in Dec 95 and brain stew in April 96. They canceled the restof the tour in April 96

iirc Stuck With Me only got a Music Video/a single release in general to promote i believe the ill-fated EU tour of 96 and was also only released in Europe

There wasn't a press blackout there were articles in magazines and alot on the internet as it was gaining popularity. The tour was cut short and the band went away for a bit. There was a lot of TV interiews and performances. I men even mtv had two specials when geek stink breath came out and when the album came out. The played leno letterma and even the vmas and on fox. I remember in the vhs trading days I got a copy of stuck with me broadcast on mtv us from 1997 or 1998. It got over shadowed by bran stew because according to greenday.com 1996 news tidbit brain stew was in heavy rotation but stuck with me wasn't available in usa yet andby may or june they had the walking contradiction video so stuck with me was just ignored by mtv in the states

I want to know why there was a press blackout for insomniac it was great! J.A.R should have been on the album as it went #1 but a manager leaked it as a single without Green Day knowing so they fired him and didn’t include it on the album which hurt sales this has been in interviews. I think Brainstew/Jaded got a lot of play as it peaked at #3 on modern rock charts and walking contradiction was nominated for a Grammy for the music video and Roman Coppola directed it so that must have gotten heavy rotation especially if it got Grammy attention…imagine a music video for J.A.R what could have been and Westbound Sign then catchiest song on the album

Found some more videos!

hahhahahah, only music-obsessed people will understand . So, when do you know if you won them or not? Did you ?

Tell me that guy on the thumbnail isn't the actor for St. Jimmy in the Jesus of Suburbia music video he looks just like him ... did you guys catch Fink in the crowd ?

Now I know thanks!

Good luck to all trying to get tickets 🤞

So good! Hope so! And Scattered too! I hope there’s some on YouTube! I don’t think I have seen any video of Suzie Chapstick live it would be great!

I sincerely hope not Oasis, I think they said Britpop.

Come on pop punk gods let me through by Friday! I'm two for two!! I'm sure at the bus stop people thought I looked stressed because of adult work things. Nah. Just trying to win green Day tickets 😆 #GreenDayProblems

Once again you were correct! I couldn’t guess Walking Contradiction for the life of me, so I didn’t even call in time to get through to the station. Just got the busy tone. The first person to guess on air had the right answers.

The music videos from Insomniac were heavily censored (nearly all of them contain swear words). From what I've been told, the band were not going to make any music videos for Insomniac because they said that they didn't want to become sellouts (that's what Mark Kohr (the director of the Stuck With Me) music video told me. The music video was censored with the lyric "Find another pleasure fucker, drag them down to hell". With a virtual press blackout at its time of release and not one single that didn’t feature either the words ‘shit’ or ‘fuck’, https://www.kerrang.com/green-day-the-inside-story-of-insomniac Similar case, the music video for Geek Stink Breath got a MTV Premiere, a trigger warning was shown before the airing of it. It was shown for a couple of weeks (late at night on MTV) and then got removed. Would be interesting to know which music video from Insomniac got the most MTV airplay though. Anyone know or was a fan back in 95 and watched MTV ?

If you have Instagram @greendayitalianrageandlove have it

Does anyone know where's a video of Suzie Chapstick?

I heard 21 guns, walking contradiction, and she.

Omg Suzie Chapstick!!!

I panicked bc I tried for 10 mins my call kept getting canceled😭😭😭 then it was ringing for 5 mins. I didn't guess right but I thought I heard 21 Guns, Welcome to Paradise and Stuart & the Ave? but i was also hearing BLVD, Stuck With Me and Walking Contradiction???? my mind is playing tricks on me😭😭 GOD I HOPE I GET IT RIGHT BEFORE FRIDAY

i knew the correct answer instantly both times but i can never get through 😫

I missed my bus so I could reliably call in this morning. I'm pretty sure I knew the songs....but I didn't get through 😮‍💨😭 Do you see the things I do for you, Green Day? 😄

Me too!🥰 It’s just so great to see them get all the love they deserve!
