Guest Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Question from one of my students: Did Green Day ever play a show in Hampton, New Hampshire (hometown of said student)? I have been searching the Internet and the closest I can find is a show at the Verizon Wireless Arena in Manchester, NH, in 2005 as part of the American Idiot tour. Does anyone know something I don't? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greenalert997x Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 I have just wondered why they actually stopped performing 21 Guns on regular basis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I read somewhere Billie saying he never really liked it. The re-recorded musical version gave him a new appreciation for the song but I think he liked the cast version better than his own. He maybe just brought it back on the recent tour because it is one of the hits people want to hear. Personally I love it, especially when it’s done live with the full band. He added a portion of it to the acoustic encore at the end of the RevRad tour and let the audience sing most of it. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slave To The Network Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I really love 21 Guns too. It's not their best song of course, and certainly not Billie's best ballad, but it's still special to me. It made me sad when they stopped playing it live for a long time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerjeezus Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I have a theory about that song that I can’t talk about on GDC because of the forum guidelines. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that probably the Warfield in 2005 when the Network opened Setlist here https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/green-day/2010/estadio-ricardo-saprissa-san-jose-costa-rica-bd57542.html 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mao Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 This may be a little off topic from Green Day related questions. In general, for interviews in magazines in the US, do reporters ever have the band check the manuscript before publication? I was surprised to hear recently that this is customary in Japan, but I'd like to know how it really is in the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomcat20 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Did the band change their gear between the 21st CB era and the Trilogy era? Watching live footage from 21st CB era shows, the guitars and also the sound of the PA seemed to be much more punchier at these shows, compared to any other era after it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering the fact that they lost money instead of making profit during 21st CB Tour, I wouldn't be surprised if one of the reasons they lost money was to have better sound overall. I remember how much fucking effort they did put in to those shows. Hell, they had lyrics for She in the background, that custom video playing after 21 Guns solo was finished, different lighting for each song, pyro and so on. 99 Revolutions Tour didn't feature anything else than few cameras and big Green Day logo (+ Dookie Album Cover in few shows) and Tour itself was so much shorter compared to 21st CB Tour. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billie essentially changes guitars every tour. He obviously keeps some staple guitars for a few different tours (or Blue for every tour) but he’s always swapping and changing As for the sound system, I’m not sure what exactly they use but it’s entirely possibly they upgraded some stuff, or their tech teams skills improved 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could this have affedted their general sound during live shows? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenalert997x Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Do any of you know how are now those fans from 'Bullet in a Bible'? The guy with mohawk, mother with daughter and the punk couple. Maybe they're still active in the media as GD fans or just concert goers? Just wondering.
