Green Day Interview Online German

[Nobody_Likes_You]

Hey, don't know if this is the Interview, that'll air later, but this Interview was postet on the 1Live website, will translate it later or let it do someone else, I need some sleep for tomorrow.

The Interview is only with Billie Joe.

1LIVE: Eine Metapher für dich und deine Frau, die Umweltaktivistin Adrienne?

Billie Joe Armstrong: (Lacht) Irgendwie schon. Wobei ich aber nie ein Album über uns machen würde, sondern mich lieber durch andere Charaktere ausdrücke. Da kann ich viel offener sein, als wenn ich von mir in der Ich-Person spreche. Und ich lege das immer so an, dass die Leute diese Charaktere quasi nach ihren Vorstellungen ausmalen können. Je nachdem, was sie darin erkennen – oder erkennen möchten. Wobei es vom politischen Standpunkt aus einfach eine Art Schnappschuss dessen ist, was ich in den letzten vier oder fünf Jahren im Fernsehen gesehen, im Internet gefunden oder in Zeitungen gelesen habe. Also jede Woche eine neue Krise, eine Naturkatastrophe oder ein Land, das in den Bankrott steuert. Und wir versuchen halt, das alles zusammenzutragen und eine tiefere Bedeutung oder eine tiefere Wahrheit darin zu erblicken.

1LIVE: A metaphor for you and your wife, environmental activist Adrienne?

Billie Joe Armstrong: (Laughs) Somehow it. And I never have an album we would make, but I prefer to express through other characters. Because I can be much more open than when I am by myself in the first-person speak. And I always do in such a way that the people can interpret this characters as they want to. Depending on what it is to recognize - or want to recognize. Whereby it from the political point of view, simply a kind of snapshot of what I said in the last four or five years, seen on television, found on the Internet or read in newspapers. So every week a new crisis, natural disaster or a country that is in bankruptcy controls. And we try to stop it all together and a deeper meaning or a deeper truth is to be seen.

my english is not perfect.....

I think he meant there that he wouldn't make an album about them (but express that with characters), not that they'd make it. (they/them=Billie and Adie)

I can be wrong, though.

Thanks anyway for posting it here

That are parts of an interview that was made before the live-interview. During the Interview there was nothing new... Just the question about the two characters on 21st BD.

Tre was asked what he thinks about Frankfurt because part of his familiy is german... "germany is his second home .." bla bla bla

And what people can expect on Saturday (the cologne Gig is a 1live gig)

They will start with justin timberlake songs :-) .... and will play new songs and old songs...

after that they took a picture and thats all..

this evening on tvtotal.de it will be better :-)

Can you watch that tvtotal show also live on the internet, or do you have to wait till it gets posted on the site?

[ComaWhite]

Mm, pity.

[marekpipe]

Or you wait until tommorow and watch it online at www.tvtotal.de
