It’s been pretty much over a decade. I wonder if those songs are now gone forever since it’s been so long. But they’ll play Welcome to Paradise and 2000 Light Years Away constantly. About 30 years of those on every set list = washroom break. Say what you want about King for a Day but the costume is cute and the dancing is very great. Unpopular opinion: I’ll never get tired of KFAD. If the new tour after Hella Mega isn’t new or interesting I’m not going. I’m becoming so jaded I might retire my Green Day fandom entirely. Like ending a 30 year mariage to save me from stagnation. I totally get this. Sometimes it feels like going to the same concert over and over, even if it is a new era. I loved the 21st CB tour, there was a section in the show that was often different for each show, I mean Platypus (I hate you) live made the Montréal show so much better for me because it made that show special. Would love to see them bring that back, pick a couple random gems from the catalog each show. 12 1

I can’t stress enough how much I want to see them do Dirty Rotten Bastards live especially with that killer bass solo and guitar solo!!! 8

For sure, I would love to seem do that again in the next era. I mean I completely get that most of the show is going to be fairly scripted, but getting that rare gem made each show more exciting. 6

I had Rusty James in Quebec City during the Trilogy. They didn't played it anywhere else during the tour. That's the kind of thing I like in a show. Don't change the setlist in his entirety but switch a couple of songs from now and then. 10

Yes they did. The tour started in Rosemont and they ended with Brutal Love at that show instead of Good Riddance They also dropped in some deep cuts on that tour too like JAR 21stCB tour was the very best though! 5

I have my fingers crossed for the next era. It can be a gem from the new album or an old album. I mean I will still go to show, because I enjoy them live and well meeting all the fans. But give the little gem to each show and damn, the fuckers would have us going to every show. Anyways I am excited to see what the new era brings 3

Flashback Posted March 3, 2022 Posted March 3, 2022 10 hours ago, Red said: I completely understand where you are coming from with the band having a new era and new sound but the problem lays in the fact that it can be extremely difficult to tell songs apart, especially for people that don't listen to Green Day as much as it's fans do. There's no denying there's consistency across the trilogy, but that's just it... there is simply just too much of it. I will never forget the time I tried showing some people who weren't hardcore fans some songs off Uno! shortly after that album came out and then distinctively being surprised when I asked them what they thought of "this song over the last" and their honest answer was simply "wait this is a different song?". In my opinion, literally any songs off any Green Day album prior to the trilogy had the right balance of being easy to tell songs apart, while still maintaining the themes and sounds of the albums that they belonged to and looking through the bands entire catalogue, I challenge anyone to tell me how the trilogy did this even close to as well as the albums that came before. I agree with that as well, tbh I made my own „best of Trilogy“ playlist with the 19 best songs to me. But I think that they just needed to make the trilogy as it is at that point of their career. And most of my comment was adressed to the production and the style of the music in general 3

They played it when I saw them at Soundwave festival in Sydney, 2014 and it was glorious. Someone even did a pretty good recording of the whole show on youtube and I urge people to check that out. Sure it's no 21cb showcase but it was a cool little show. 10 hours ago, GDFan2019 said: I can’t stress enough how much I want to see them do Dirty Rotten Bastards live especially with that killer bass solo and guitar solo!!! I know right? I have been secretly hoping that they will play Stay the Night live at one of my shows one day, but I'd probably have a heart attack and die of excitement if they just started playing DRB. Just like the (pretty much confirmed) title suggests, I really hope 1972 is a celebration of many things.. one of being of the bands entire backlog so they can finally start busting out some deep cuts live. Surely you'd think they would be bored of playing the exact same songs thousands of times per tour? I know I certainly would but I have a pretty shitty attention span these days XD. 4

The way they premiered the songs live before the albums came out was really cool, went to a show at the beginning and another at the end and both were amazing, and I still love the albums. Fun times on GDC as well. I even like the album covers There's no era I haven't enjoyed though tbh. Shame FOAM was limited/cut short by covid but still enjoyed what we did get and still excited to finally see them live again after buying the tickets in 2019 lol. Very awesome that it seems we could get another album before then, wasn't expecting this at all. 10

That Dude Posted March 3, 2022 Posted March 3, 2022 Dear Green Day Make songs that you would want to play live even if the whole wide world hates them and you only sell 10 copies. Also. I wouldn't mind a song about Alligators. Maybe a sequel to the Foxboro song? 4
That Dude Posted March 4, 2022 Posted March 4, 2022 The snippets all sound like "Loss of Control" and still you Trilogy Haters are eating it up. Hmm.... Also I feel like I'm getting drunk from listening to that song for some reason? Anyone else feel like booze is pouring out of their headphones on that one? No, just me?
DookieLukie Posted March 4, 2022 Posted March 4, 2022 Why a disappointing promotional cycle. I'm losing interest and I'm a big fan. Imagine how little casual fans care now. All my friends who casually enjoy Green Day have totally forgotten about the hints. Just shameful business. Crazy how badly managed the band is now. 3

Let's become big fans of Stereophonics and forget this Green Day mess. The wait is hard, but it will be worth it. Somewhere out there in the multiverse I've already heard it and it's great. 1
