Awesome as Fuck

If they actually go through with calling it Awesome as Fuck, I will love them forever. I love that title, because it's just like this big inside joke between the band and the fans. It really shows Green Day's relationship with their fans, y'know?

And it really reflects the whole 21st Century Breakdown tour - just one big, fun, intimate party, really. A title like 'Bullet In A Bible' was really great for the American Idiot

tour, which was big and loud and dramatic, but not this one. And who really gives a shit about Wal Mart and everyone else? Whoever wants to buy it will buy it, regardless of what it's called and if Wal Mart sells it or not.

I agree.

Omg I'm so happy.

THIS (also paying homage to the current GDA banner...because again the official site will be second to GDA in posting the news :lol:)

And it feels so close now! I was imagining waiting until May or something...

That's what I was thinking...but hopefully they let it go. Cause it would be great if thats what they called it.

Yeah, I guess we'll just have to wait and see! I mean, I know a little bit of controversy is no harm, but seeing as how they have such a young audience...

Part of the audience at their shows is quite young as well, and I haven't heard of any show where Billie didn't use the word 'fuck' at least once. Lol. And more things like that..

FUCK YEAH!!

They're never gonna sell it at Wal-Mart! Fuck is too vulgar. hahaha

I think it would kinda sucks if the DVD is a Tokyo gig; they already recorded the Live CD "Last Night on Earth" at a Tokyo gig right.. :(

I think the tittle is an amazing homage to us, fans... :wub:

dont know if you guys have had this confirmed or not yet. I`ve not long since turned my lappy on though. I got word through from Bill that this is official and that the cd was recorded all over the world and the dvd was recorded in Tokyo. different songs on both discs. he didnt give me a track listing though. at least we have a date now though! :dance:

I wonder if that means some different songs but with KYE, AI, etc on both, or if the CD is going to contain the ones that they didn't play in Japan. I like the second option :)

I've been looking at the setlist of those two shows from Japan, so the DVD may include 2,000 light years away, cover of My Generation, American Eulogy, Murder City, Burnout, cover of I fought the law, Geek Stink Breath, Maria and Redundant. :D

The DVD is only for Tokyo, the rest is just going to be audio.

True, but a lot of bands do that...saying 'fuck' a few times at a show and releasing a CD entitled 'Awesome as fuck' are two completely different things, I think. I can see it being a tagline, but I just find it very hard to believe that they'll be able to do it easily if it's going to be the title. In saying that, I would love it to happen just because it was Beth's idea :D

I think Awesome is fuck for the name is lame as fuck :dry:

The DVD will contain footage of the show in Tokyo, it's not just for Tokyo but its gonna be released everywhere ;)

I don't find it lame at all if you know what's the story behind it. It's just amazing.

Well yeah, that's what I meant xD

People on tumblr are taking a shit because they don't like it. People are never happy with green day's decisions. I'm happy were getting something.

I love the title. Especially because we know the story behind it.

More importantly, people on Tumblr don't matter.

Naming this Awesome as Fuck is like its the bands turn to hold up a thank you sign to all their fans

yeah, exactly, and we all here lived it in some way, I remember being all excited about this, giving ideas and such, and I wasn't even going to any of the shows. But it was an amazing idea, I would love it if they used a footage of the "thank you/awesome as fuck" signs for the dvd or even just put a good quality video of it on GD.com.

Maybe they'll actually include pics on the album. =D

:woot: that's so cool if they actually call it that! I like that we've got a set date already, it's easier to wait for something when you have an idea when it's going to be.

:woot: That is the best news i have heard in a while!

I will be so gutted if they change the title. I think its fucking awesome and the fact that it was fan inspired makes it even better.

This is probably a stupid question but how do we know the dvd will only be footage from Tokyo?

I would love it so much if they named it Awesome as Fuck :D the news about the possible release date completely made my week :)
