nahhhh thats cursed XD

Looked up Norah Jones and she has a version of "Down in the Willow Garden" with Rufus Wainwright instead of Billie Joe. Hmm.

This was made by my friend. It's a green day meme account, this isn't real. A live album may be coming out but that one is very much likely fake

The image is edited, it's not real.

Not sure how I've never seen this before. I don't think the raw demo sound suits the song well, and I definitely like the original intro more in the context of an album and show opener. If they ever randomly decide to whip this one out in the middle of a show (where there is Forever Now, there is hope), this intro would suit it better.

Your absolutely right

Do you mean 21 Guns? I definitely remember hearing a version that dropped pianos into a couple of spots where they weren’t on the album.

Yes, it is Dookie. And the code worked fine…

I don't drink coffee, but it's Dookie right? I know it is but I have a compulsion to have it verified!

Really cool of you to post that info here!

fair play to whoever did the detective work! That's true dedication

I was there too! Both nights!

On the subject of "lost" media I swear there was a leaked version of 21st Century Breakdown not long before it came out where the acoustic guitar intro was a piano instead.

One of the things that's made me happiest about streaming is the death of the radio edit. Editing out slurs and not dropping F-bombs on top 40 stations at 8:00 AM, sure, I get it, but there are two long-standing traditions in radio that I hate. One, they speed up the songs' playback. Two, they slice and dice anything they have to to bring a song down to three minutes. That's how 21 Guns on the radio ended up without the guitar solo that the whole thing is built around, and it's why if you've ever thought that Know Your Enemy sounded slightly faster in your car than it does on your iPhone, well, you're right. The radio edit completely ruins songs.

We absolutely need a 21CB anniversary box set. Since Butch Vig said that they had about 70 unfinished songs or part of songs I'm really curious how early version might sound like

Thanks for providing clarification and adding the FAQ! Posts on Instagram said that the only way to see The Coverups was to buy tickets for $500 or above. The FAQ should include that tickets $500 and above are partially tax-deductible ($375 for the $500 tickets). That might influence some people to spend the extra money.

I have three extra tickets to this if anyone is interested. center balcony

I was at a record store yesterday and they wanted $40 for the Blu-ray version of it, which surprised me! I have the DVD version (which I only paid $6 for 😄) and it made me realize that I need to do a rewatch.

random billie doodle of a random trend? thing?

Yes! I think it’s objectively really good, so full flavored and intense. I haven’t managed to find anything comparable here in the shops yet.

I know right?! It's a real thinker . Haha, I am not a big coffee person, so I have no idea what that tastes like. Is it good?

Sooooo difficult!😂 I actually used that code and ordered. The discount pays for those horrible shipping costs. And I got addicted to Soundcheck…🙃

Interesting… To good to be true?
