AAF is number 16 on the album chart here. :)

Wow.

I don't know about the US...

I'm kinda surprised. How many non-hardcore fans would really buy it???

You gonna share that?

I don't think I can, pretty much all of it except the Cologne & Manchester gigs are not allowed to be posted on here. This is what I have as the setlist now

1. 21st Century Breakdown (CD)

2. Know Your Enemy (CD)

3. East Jesus Nowhere (CD)

4. Holiday (CD)

5. Static Age (DVD)

6. Letterbomb (CD Bonus Track)

7. Boulevard Of Broken Dreams (DVD)

8. Viva La Gloria! (CD)

9. Before The Lobotomy (E-Werk, Cologne radio broadcast)

10. Cigarettes & Valentines (CD)

11. Nice Guys Finish Last (Manchester radio rip, posted two days ago)

12. Burnout (CD)

13. Going To Pasalacqua (CD)

14. J.A.R (CD)

15. Holden Caulfield (CD)

16. Welcome To Paradise (21 Guns Live EP)

17. Christie Road (CD Bonus Track)

18. F.O.D (21 Guns Live EP)

19. Paper Lanterns/2,000 Light Years Away (CD Bonus Track)

23. My Generation (DVD)

24. When I Come Around (CD)

25. She (CD)

26. 21 Guns (CD)

27. American Eulogy (DVD)

28. American Idiot (CD)

29. Jesus Of Suburbia (DVD)

30. Last Night On Earth (Audio rip of Pro shot video live in Zurich)

31. Wake Me Up When September Ends (CD)

32. Good Riddance (CD)

I've chopped some tracks up to try and get the background crowd noise consistent, and also cut the bit where he says "We're going to play a brand new song" from the very end of Viva La Gloria and put it into the start of Cigarettes & Valentines. Hope this helps, I'm very pleased with how it's turned out actually it is basically a complete gig, only missing Longview and Hitchin A Ride and we have them on Bullet In A Bible.

I'm 99% sure it wasn't autotuned. There was conversation earlier in the thread about how that would be close to impossible.

Did anyone else think that some of the CD especially Burnout was sped up. Or is it just my copy ?

Maybe it seems pretty obvious but they typically play songs much faster when they play them live

I know they do but it just seems too sped up. Even when Billie is saying at the beginning 'this songs from 1994 this songs called Burnout' it sounds really quick and the drum solo sounds abnormally quick.

The guy in Before The Lobotomy who shouts out "Whisky shots & cheap cigarettes" before the album was out :dance: Then they get him onstage I think? Amazing. "You guys are getting free downloads" :lol: Had to put that one on for that guy alone.

Idk. Just makes you think that who knows what happened to some of those people in the audience. I'm sure some were from all around japan.....

Totally kept thinking that too. :(

On the second night of the Saitama shows, Billie Joe pulled someone from the crowd up onstage with him for the "sieg heil" part of Holiday. A few seconds after the concussions, Billie Joe pointed for the guy to stage dive, but he instead walked back towards Tre before getting the point and jumping. There actually was a stage diver during Holiday on the second night, but the editing of it was confusing as hell and made it look like there was someone randomly jumping offstage. Honestly, I'd have left the guy out entirely to avoid the "wtf where did he come from?" moment.

Ah, now it makes sense. Thanks for that. There's another bad edit where Billie carries his mic. to the end of the runway. And couple shots later, it's back in its original spot. Tsk tsk editors...

yes he was like the only one who had listened to the album on that english radio show so he knew that part^^

and billie told him to come up, buuuut he was a jerk^^ and he lost his glasses when he freaked out after singing that part^^

Negative eight million points for bringing this back up. Did any of you guys who keep saying, "The whole thing's auto-tuned" even go to a show? There might be some slight pitch correction on a song or two, but 99.99% of the album, Billie Joe sounds like he did live, and I didn't hear any obvious auto-tuning of his live vocals. Seriously, enough.

Definitely. It's particularly noticeable on KYE, Holiday and JOS on the AAF DVD.

I thought it was also noticeable on Good Riddance. Maybe that was just me.

Of course.

i heard it and i remember clearly that it was slower in real life.

I'm going to learn the live version of Good Riddance that Billie plays on the CD, but can't find the tabs for it. I only want to learn the cool solo bit he does because I know how to play the actual song already. Looks like I'll be working it out by ear!

I want to learn that too! It doesn't sound too difficult, but there aren't any tabs for it anywhere.

Posted

i think the major problem with that is the speed, isn't it? at least it would be my problem xD

would be cool to be able to play it someday though :D

How much do you guys think the name has impacted (for better or worse) on the sales of the album? I'd say it has greatly helped

Posted

Awesome as fuck is number 16 in VG-lista this week :woot: i had no idea!

Go Norway and our good taste in music :happy:

Of course you are, everybody can find the whole Cologne-show in the downloadsection, and I'm pretty sure the Manchester gig as well, at least did I download it from there :D

Well, maybe its just me, but I'd rather say people wouldnt like it. I mean Green Day fans get the sense behind it, but my friends came over to me sayin it sounds vain and arrogant. They think if you hear it, it seems to be "over-the-top" so I'm not sure if it helped. =/

I don't know whether it helped the sales (while a lot of people/fans do like it, probably lots of others don't like it at all) directly because of the name, but it (the name) sure helped in getting the news out that they're having a live album out, and I guess that would boost the sales. No one's buying an album if they don't know it exists.
