Green Day Q&A Thread


Liam

Recommended Posts

Do we have a thread for links to interviews?  As we are entering into to more promo, etc, it would be great to have a promo thread where we could put links to radio shows, interviews, print, etc.  Sometimes I notice we start a new thread when there is one, but it would be cool to have them all in one place.  Thoughts?

Whatever happened to the photo archive on GDA? When I went to the section on the site it couldn’t be found. 

I’m pretty sure it had to be taken down for reasons outside GDA’s control

The company that hosted it got bought out and then the new host lost all the data. It’s too much work to bring back so the forum is gone.

What age are Whatshername and St. Jimmy supposed to be in American Idiot?  I was just thinking whatever age Billie was during that time in his life, the president would be different.   Trying to figure out who the president would have been during Billie's teenage years or 20s of whatever age the characters are.

St Jimmy describes himself as “a teenage assassin executing some fun”

13-19.      Probably on the older side considering the stuff he's going through.  18 seems kind of perfect.    That would mean the story takes place in...1990.     So it was George H.W. Bush and not George W. Bush Billie was singing about, WHOA!   Haha.    1990, that just sounds weird.

This one and the Will Ferrell prize in 2011 are the only performances of the song with something else added. Not counting the full band performance in 2016-7 in the Colbert show :)

Thank you, what a great one!  Also, has Billie ever done the false start with the F bomb while performing Good Riddance?

Why is it called One For the Razorbacks?   It referring to the animal, the sports team or what?

 

From the GD wiki: 

One for the Razorbacks is the second track on Green Day's second studio album, Kerplunk! The song was written for a girl from Arkansas Billie Joe Armstrong wrote that year, where they allegedly listened to the demo in his car.

So yeah, stands to reason that it's the Arkansas hand-egg team.

Why did they feel the need to spin the C&V theft story I wonder?

Maybe a PR move? A daft throwaway anecdote that got a bit out of control?
