My friend just sent me this pic of Billie through his cell (he got front row seats):

He took high quality ones with his digital camera. Hopefully, I'll get to see them tomorrow!

That sure looks like a pro-shot pic. I could be wrong, of course.

There's an inteview with Billie Joe and The Edge from CNN

Here. I'm uploading it to megaupload now to share. Thanks to my lover 'check' for sending it to me.

Awesome interview! Oh, I'm glad they will be releasing a studio version too. I can't get over how great the song is!

My friend had front-row seats, he has a lot of experience with cameras.

Ditto. Something seems suspicious

[TnT--I-Heart-You]

^haha

Personally i dont really like the song that much. Green Day and U2 do a great job with it, but i dunno, they could of chosen a better song to cover, or better yet write an original song.

[TnT--I-Heart-You]

I didn't really like it at first, but i guess it grew on me, and then hearing them play it, now I really like it

and the Saints thing worked perfectly with what they were doing.

[Kleptomaniac]

hmm Ill download the song. so they didnt play this rhapsody at the football thing right?

[Mistle]

I haven't heard Green Day and U2 play it yet so i guess i cant really judge it yet.

Well if you were in the front row and took a picture it would look like it came from the video.

Also she is hardly new around here.

Really. You think there was a better choice for an emotional SAINTS football game to open the SUperdome

(after the worst Natural Disaster in years that devastated New Orleans and the Superdome)

than The SAINTS are coming?

I guess you are actually smarter than GD and U2 and their management. And Gibson and Rhapsody and ABC. Thanks for the insight.

What ?

Rhapsady isnt a song it's a music downloading program/website, where you can download the recording of the song & the performance video.

REally. You think there was a better choice for an emotional SAINTS football game to open the SUperdome )after the worst Natural Disaster in years devastating New Orleans) than The SAINTS are coming?

God forbid someone have a different opinion.

[TnT--I-Heart-You]

^ no kidding...

but I do think it was about the perfect song for them to use considering The Saints & everything.

I haven't heard Green Day and U2 play it yet so i guess i cant really judge it yet.

yeah wait to hear them play it, I like it alot more now.

Did anyone else think it was really wierd that the former President George Bush was there? and got to flip the game coin ?

[**nobodylikesyou**]

God forbid someone have a different opinion.

Its not about having a different opinion in this case. If they understood why Green Day and U2 were doing what they did, they would understand why they chose that exact song.

That person stated how GD and U2 did a great job with the song and then two posts later says they haven't heard it yet. I am not clear on how you can have an opinion on something you havent heard yet. Then to say I dunno they could have found a better song to cover, to me is someone that is not educated in why they did what they did.

And your comment about the picture to someone who is a decent poster and has been around awhile just seemed accusing to me. I get tired of nice people around here trying to share their excitement and then out come the naysayers.

Hey I didn't catch that

how did they know how GD&U2 did if they haven't heard it ?

Everyone can have their opinion, if they don't like the song they don't like the song - Honestly doesn't matter to me if they like it or not, I do, GD & U2 do. So why do they even matter at all ?

Unless they wrote a new song I don't really think another song would of fit like that one, with the name at least.

All the songs they played were perfect for this.

[**nobodylikesyou**]

I agree. I don't care if people like it or not. As long as they have heard it.

then complain that they could do better when they don't even understand the situation, is someone just complaining to complain. That gets old.

I liked it, and I am gonna go watch it again. Good nite.

Whoa, somebody woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

I wasn't saying the song didn't match the occasion, because obviously it was the perfect song for what has happened. All i was saying is that I, myself, do not like this song.

You like the song, fine.

The song matches the occasion, fine.

I dont really like the song very much, fine.

And i dont recall saying I was smarter that GD & U2, management, Gibsion, Rhapsody, ABC etc. Get your facts right before you start accusing people.

Sheesh, you are 8 years old. All i can say is, get over it and stop wetting your nappy over nothing. Your getting to the age now where you should be realising everybody has their own opinion.

liked it, and I am gonna go watch it again. Good nite

Would you like me to read you a lulluby goodnight? Or are you to big and tough for that?

[clusterbomb]

heard it on kerrang at 2am, its fucking brilliant!!!!!!!!

[tomdsjames]

is rhapsody the only place you can download the song? 'cause I live in England and just tried to download it but it said rhapsody is not yet available in this country

[Pirate Girl]

Same here, it says US only

How crap is that!

And think of the money they're missing out on.

I need to get the recorded version somehow .....
