Green Day Q&A Thread

For me it’s The Story So Far and blink-182. TSSF is defo what I listen to the most nowadays/past couple of years, but blink is the only other band I «follow».

Against Me, Mountain Goats and Nice Cave RULE!  

I wonder if I can find a good rave in my town....I shall try!  

I just learned that the lead singer of The Interrupters used to date the lead singer of Unwritten Law. 

You need to ask someone in the know. That’s how you find a good rave.

Hi, I'm trying to download a copy of Green Day's cover song "I Fought the Law" on mp3. I'm in the UK. I can only find is on the USA Amazon site as an mp3, but am told by Amazon I cannot buy an mp3 from USA to UK. It's not available on UK Amazon site. Can anyone kindly help? This is the one Green Day song that has eluded me. Thanks.

Can I take the opportunity to say, sincerely and humbly, having only been on this site a few short months, I feel part of an awesome family. Although I don't post much, I spend hours reading all your posts, I think your all amazing. It's so special being a Green Day freak since 1989, coz Green Day are so special and unique. Love you all.

Hey, I've successfully downloaded the song to my moby (cell phone), as an mp4 video. The video just shows the cover artwork of the single. About to test it out as I pogo to it down the city high street. Thanks anyway. I'll stick my neck out and say I think the Green Day version is better than previous cover issued by the Clash.

So I went to B&N to pick up some manga to take on the plane with me to NC where I'll be visiting family for a bit. Their record section is right in front of the manga section now, so I went thru a few of them and saw Green Day's Insomniac but it was the 25th-anniversary edition. (And thus I got it, even tho I don't like Insomniac all that much besides for a few songs, and the album art is just stunning.) My question is that on the official website or somewhere when they describe including a select few songs from the live Prague show it's referred to as 'infamous'. Does anyone know why that is? Or if it's not infamous, why did they choose the Prague show specifically? 

Probably because at the end the lights flashing gave some dude a seizure on stage

Not directly GD related but anyways, according to wikipedia, Rob Cavallo is an Oscar winning producer. Do we know for which song he got the oscar? I can‘t find anything about it..

In 1999, Cavallo worked with Phil Collins on the Disney feature animated movie, "Tarzan." The lead single, "You'll Be in My Heart," won an Oscar, a Grammy and a Golden Globe award for best original song from a motion picture. The song stayed at No. 1 for 19 weeks on the Billboard Hot AC chart ... First google result lol

Speaking of lost interviews, I’ve never been able to find this one. Does anyone know where to find it?

It’s clearly 21st CB, was it the French one where the translator speaks over them  so non-French speakers don’t hear a word?

I know it's from Latin America 2010 but not sure if there was ever anything but just pictures (unless one of the Latin American sites has it?)

did they do kill the dj on a talk show? i have a faint memory of it but idk

trying to think of a reason he'd be wearing the same outift

[BilIie Joe Armstrong]

re kill the dj: i think they did a bunch of things that eventually never aired.

[Slave To The Network]

So the mystery of where the Kill The DJ photo came from is still unsolved. Hmmm. I wonder who might be the best person to dig up an answer. 🤔 I know I'm very curious as well.

[jengd]

There could be a whole ton of stuff from Trilogy era that we’ve never seen I suppose.
