Hermione Posted January 3, 2015 Author Posted January 3, 2015 18 albums that turn 25 this year 1990 Lookout! "39/Smooth" - Green Day / Can you believe it’s been 25 years since Green Day released its debut album? No singles were released from “39/Smooth” and none of the tracks appeared on the band’s 2001 “International Superhits!” collection, making it a mostly unheard gem. The band was chosen for induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame last year and if you’ve got an original pressing of this one on cassette, it proves you were there from day one. http://www.theindychannel.com/news/gallery-18-albums-that-turn-25-this-year Always great to see this album acknowledged! 1
unextraordinarygirl Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 That Hot Topic shirt is totally tacky and tasteless. They should take it out of the store. IMO 1
Maid Meringue Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 I do like the new Welcome to Paradise t-shirt that HT put out, so at least one shitty shirt is balanced by a good one. I kind of want to buy the Beej shirt when it goes on super clearance for a couple dollars (because lets face it, the only people buying it will be for the irony or out of confusion) because of how absolutely tasteless it is. The general public wouldn't have any idea about its meaning anyway, and I'd probably wear it to wash my car or something.

People around would get the irony. (and hopefully wouldn't joke about me and smashed Beej too much.)

BilIie Joe Armstrong Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Do they ship internationally? I would have thought so.they do.shippnig makes it more expensive though
Guest Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 HT shipping is insane, they wanted $150 shipping for a $50 purchase. no thank you.
Liam Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 HT shipping is insane, they wanted $150 shipping for a $50 purchase. no thank you. Find someone in American to buy it and ship it to you. I've done it before, saved so much. 1
Guest Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Find someone in American to buy it and ship it to you. I've done it before, saved so much. aye that's what i've done for Adeline stuff before so much easier. worked out as $20 shipping in total, to them and then to me.

Haushinka! Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Ugh, why couldn't I be my age now in the early 90s? I would kill to be a part of Green Day's popularity during the Dookie/Insomiac years. anyone that got to see them during that time are incredibly lucky! 18 albums that turn 25 this year 1990 Lookout!

Almost as old as I am. Such a fantastic record; one that showed how talented Green Day was from the very beginning. This album will always have a special place in my heart. <3 2

Give_Me_Novacaine90 Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Shadowbox Live has snapped up the rights to become the first central Ohio troupe to produce American Idiot, the Green Day rock musical. The company will present the show from Feb. 12 to April 26 in its Brewery District space, 503 S. Front St. The musical, about three working-class guys struggling with life in post-9/11 America, was adapted from the 2004 album by Billie Joe Armstrong, lead singer of Green Day, and author-director Michael Mayer (Spring Awakening). It includes songs from the Green Day album 21st Century Breakdown, too. Two years ago, a touring production of American Idiot played the Palace Theatre in Columbus. http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/life_and_entertainment/2015/01/12/shadowbox-idiot.html

Give_Me_Novacaine90 Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Billie Joe Armstrong, the front man for Green Day, shared a photo of the missing dog with his 433,000 Instagram followers Monday afternoon. http://www.sfgate.com/crime/article/San-Francisco-burglar-grabs-pit-bull-owner-6010316.php
WorryRock02 Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 When a thief stole a man’s dog Mochi along with a laptop and bicycles, the owner took to social media and recruited hundreds of people to help track her down, but none more connected than Green Day’s front man Billie Joe Armstrong. “To me it’s a kidnapping, that was my child, and it was taken away from my house,” said David Baker. It began with a few tweets and Instagrams, and paper fliers, and then an outpouring of support from skaters, who wrote, “Skateboarders can do anything, let’s help.” From there, Armstrong (who also lives in the East Bay) found it, and re-posted it, and then an army of search crews arrived. http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2015/01/13/dog-stolen-get-green-days-billie-joe-armstrongs-434000-instagram-followers-to-help/
