Ballyhoo would be extremely cool! That song is just awesome, could have fit well on the actual album.

hope you get better soon too

Bang Bang is definitely not safe just based on the fact it is from the POV of a mass shooter. That single might be the ballsiest lead single they ever put out there with AI or Geek Stink Breath. That song is also straight fire and has an Insomniac vibe to it. They music video I think was a bit of a let down and played it safe considering they lyrics/context. Still Breathing also is very personal from the POV of Billie’s struggles and lyrically I don’t think plays it safe that’s one of his most honest compositions. Forever now and somewhere now are also pretty honest “My name is Billie and I’m freaking out”. Sound wise maybe parts of the album play it safe but great lyrics. Every album Billie seems to have a deep personal song like Dilemma pretty much all of AI and 21st. Brutal Love and Lazy Bones, Macys Day Parade, 86, No Pride, he’s not afraid to put his heart out there.

In 95 they were touring and MTV streamed a live version of them playing Stuck with Me from Stockholm I think? It had the “spit cam” lol. I suppose they could do the same. I love how on all their MTV VMA performances they don’t always play the “hit single” like when they played Armarage Shanks in 94 instead of Basket Case/Longview/When I Come Around. And Stuck With Me instead of a Dookie track or BrainStew or Geek Stink Breath. They did play Blvd. But that song was EVERYWHERE. After that though East Jesus Nowhere instead of Know Your Enemy or 21 Guns. Then instead of Oh Love they played Let Yourself Go. So if they were to stream a song maybe they’d play an album track/non single or maybe a single but not on of their biggest. Ballyhoo would be cool.

So we think Green Day would re-record songs like at the library or one for the razorbacks? They could or 80 any really but part of me likes the raw sound of those records idk if they would. I kind of think the rawness of the production is a key selling point of those songs. It would be cool to have them updated but part of me wishes they don’t tinker with them.

Learning power chords was one of the greatest days of my guitar playing career 🤣 it just unlocks so much

That was one of the first songs I learned power chords to a few years ago, heh. One of my fav's, too

I Was A Teenage Teenager is really hitting right now. It was one of my favorites when Father Of All was released.

Sure! (Sorry just saw this comment haha)

That's so cool!! Don't worry, everyone has recorded thunder once or twice haha. I have hehe can't wait to listen!

Any more news about the movie premiere?

I'm sorry to hear you're sick! I am actually sick, too. You are not alone . Get well soon!

I’ve made some more but they aren’t Green Day and I haven’t posted them yet! I made a super moody version of Karma Police by Radiohead and included actual thunder noises I was able to capture at my apartment 🤣 I’ll post it soon! Also I plan on making a cover of Redundant soon. Thank you for your interest!

Sadly I've been kinda sick (earlier this year I couldn't go to the Japan shows because of dangerously high blood pressure and just haven't been right since). Also been trying to stay off the internet too. Starting to feel a little more human the last couple of weeks. Hope you're keeping well.

Damn, those cards sell fast. Whatever. I think I am one of those people who look at something and likes it but never buys it . I talk myself out of stuff pretty fast.

the floof....... *quivers*...... it's...gone glad grouch is back!

Is there something happening today? I am wondering because there is an unusual amount of people on today

workin on any new covers @Robbie1039? I haven't been really keeping up to date with you haha, so I am just wondering .

I'll always stand up for Ordinary World. It's in my top 15 GD songs. Like @Tre's Busted Drumkitsaid, it's like an exhale. If they ended on Forever Now, you still have a bunch of adrenaline running through you. Ordinary World allows you to breathe while letting the album come to an end. It's a fitting end to the album.

I know this is kind of off topic, but what's new @Rumpelstiltskin2000 ? I haven't chatted with you in a while hehe.

I have hundreds of magazines still to be photographed or scanned. I'd say a few really old ones but don't remember what's in them any more as they've been boxed up for about 13 years. If I do find it down the line will post but it could be a while

one of the best albums in rock history :>. yeah, rev rad definately isn't up there, but is still a great album

Unfortunately I haven't found any trace of that. But I hope we can get it at some point I wasn't collecting images/photos of magazine clippings before, so I only really have my own archive and some random pictures on my hard drive (but still none fitting your descriptions).
