Dingle Posted Monday at 09:53 PM Posted Monday at 09:53 PM Love this song, from Insomniac, imho the perfect and awesome follow up to Dookie. When GD were '86'ed, or thrown out of Gilman Street, their home away from home, they momentarily wondered if the band and a major label was worth it, but quickly rebounded for this central attack of Insomniac. Billie Joe sets the scene at the door of Gilman, acknowledged in the bratty pre-chorus 'Stand aside and let the next one pass/Don't let the door kick you in the ass,' Billie Joe sings, playing the part of Gilman club owner Tim Yohannan. Though some questioned their punk credibility, most GD fans were enthusiastic about the group's music. It was just that their original fans were harsh. Yohannan took the brunt of GD's aural brutality. (Taken from Green Day on track, by William E. Spevack) 1 Quote

Nikto66 Posted yesterday at 12:51 AM Posted yesterday at 12:51 AM They closed some of the shows with 86 back on the Insomniac tour. I know they closed the show in Melbourne in 1996 with it, they played with such intensity back then and it was an awesome way to finish. And to answer your question, I love the song. Dookie/Insomniac/Nimrod will always be my favourite GD era. 1 Quote
