I KNOW, I'm thinking "how could Sunday possibly top this?!" Like, what could be more epic than meeting Billie and Larry Livermore in one day?

Only time will tell. :happy:

Yeah, I need to look at the train schedule and see what time I should get to Penn.

Cool. I'm trying to find the train schedule as well.

My dad said I should take the train that leaves around one-ish.

That sounds pretty good.

There's going to be an interview in NYC with Billie Joe and Michael Mayer. That, plus all this week at the AI musical they're holding after show "talkbacks" with BJ, Michael Mayer, and some of the cast members.

So a lot of GDCers figure we'll all go to the matinee of the musical and then the interview that evening. :)

Shitttt, the talkback tonight was amazing.

Lauren got to ask Billie her question! She asked him why he decided to do the musical when in '04 he seemed so against it. He was like "oh Michael Mayer came to me and asked if he could do it etc" (which doesn't REALLY answer the question but w/e) and then said the audience was almost as loud as her tie dye shirt. Or something like that. :lol:

omg i'm so glad someone finally asked him that :D

Here are videos, first of the regular Q&A and then of the audience Q&A, the entire thing:

Q&A with David Cote:

Now the Audience Q's:

I hope it's all spliced correctly. I had to do it manually on FlipShare. Gah, let me know if there's anything fucked up with the splicing. Enjoy!

It's like

Lauren: They asked about having an American Idiot Musical, and you said it would never happen, over your dead body. I have a recording of it on my phone, if you want to hear it.

Billie: ... Is it gonna be as loud as that tie-dye shirt you're wearing?

Posted

THAT was fucking funny!!!!!!!

Posted

Most of the questions were lame last night, all happy birthdays and hugs, but Lauren's question was just great!

Posted

hahaha I loved his reaction to Lauren's question.

and I liked his answer to what his inspiration for writing American Idiot was in this video that sundaymorning6am posted

Posted

Thanks so much for the videos!

Oh my god Lauren that is amazing :lol:. So cool of you to ask that question too.

Alright folks, we've been commanded to bring out the "Awesome as Fuck" signs for the Talkback tomorrow!

Greenday: "When we do the talk back on sunday, everyone should hold up signs that say Awesome as Fuck. That be.. Uh.. awesome as fuck?"
