Maybe we can ask about the cello again 

[Second favourite son]

Ooh, so they'll still be in the UK tomorrow...  Hopes for a secret show are not dead yet!

Looks like you need a Guardian account to comment.  Does anyone know if there's a way around that?  I don't really want an account if I can avoid it.

Lol, I just saw it and knew it was you, especially with the (lyrics from the song) part

Jfc that person spamming the questions though. Like GTFO, that's just going to make it harder for whoever has to go through them, and gives certain posts less chance if they're at the bottom or something.

And I can see that some of them have been deleted. Makes me wonder what bullshit they were trying to put out. But really, someone needs to be even more diligent with it. Delete the non-questions!

Couldn't agree more! When I ask questions I always spend a lot of time thinking about before deciding what to ask so that they will be able to give a good answer that we will enjoy, but it seems like almost every question is either "WHAT DO YOU THINK OF TRUMP" or "ARE YOU COMING TO *insert country*??????++?" I hate it! Just be original!

I also saw multiple questions about drugs and one person actually asked if "Billie was still sober" Smh. Some people are just so insensitive. Those comments were deleted, though.

So this thing starts like in 2 hours? It will be on The Guardian website, right?

[sara_gd]

I can't be here at that time but aim looking forward to see this. Wow we have so many interviews that I can't keep track, can anyone do a summary of what's to come in the next few days?

[Little Youngblood]

Ah, thank you SO much for sharing this!

 I was so sad when my questions didn't get answers for the Deezer one.

Same! I was so disappointed when they ended that stream.

I was like, "That's it?!" They were there for like a half hour, and it seemed more like 10 minutes to me with the questions asked. Most disappointed me more than the few good ones we got.

Yes! I prefer the more original and interesting questions that makes you think "wow, I never even though of that?" y'know?

Me too! I always read through them to see how my stand apart from others thinking. I like to challenge the band a little and make them think. It's always good hearing, "That's a good question!" to start. Hope we get some of those this time around!

Speaking on this web chat, I'm not understanding how it works: is the band going to be replying to comments in the comment section under an account?

I like to do that as well. Though sometimes (like this time) I prefer to just ask something fairly basic that they can answer in an surprising or amusing way, like "describe your current mood with a song title of yours, and you're not allowed to choose American Idiot" which I'm asking for this Q&A. I just couldn't figure out anything good and I spent like 2 days thinking! Could be because I'm very sleep deprived... The election has a way of doing that to you, and I'm not even American!

I just assumed that it would be a live stream, but now that you mention it... I have no idea.

See, I can never come up with unique, fun ones like yours! I always do something that relates to what they're promoting. My questions are under "chelsealouanne", if you happen to see some my posted ones! Good save on American Idiot. Me too, the election is all I see and hear about, and I live in Canada! (but it still can affect us).

I assumed a livestream, too, but this "post them in the comments below, and they’ll answer as many as possible.", make it seem they are directly replying to us! Which is always a little more fun because they get to choose which to answer.

Or why he thought "soul of Ms. Teresa" was a good idea

Where can I watch this?

[Little Youngblood]

I'm so anxious, I haven't even been able to work on my college assignment today that's four weeks past its initial due date.

Green Day sent us some good vibes. 

Ahh, and the questions keep coming in. Can't wait to see how this plays out! 5PM GMT right now.

 

[I don't care]

So how are we going to see this? I have no idea where to be, so I just opened both Facebook and the Guardian's website

[solongfromthestars]

Where are we meant to be watching this?
