jos_whatsername Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 This is ...awesome as fuck, they should keep the name. Advance order at amazon germany is already possible seriously?! can you pleeease send me the link, i couldnt find it
Hermione Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Even if I didn't know the story behind Awesome As Fuck I'd still LOVE the name! Perfect for Green Day. Too often they're portrayed in a too serious and clean-cut way with the sense of fun and quirkiness that makes them so amazing cut out. Really hope they don't chicken out of the title and go with something boring and safe. Looking at the boring and safe way they went with their 21st CB singles it wouldn't surprise me though. Maybe continuity, but still, why Tokyo? I know for a fact that Argentina and Denver were both better shows, and we know Argentina was recorded. There's no way Tokyo crowds are better than the South American audiences either. It just doesn't make sense Yeah I mean every show was great I'm sure, but it really did seem like they got better and better as the tour went on. They were REALLY on top of the world for the last US leg and in South America with all the extra/rare songs, funny random things they did and just generally putting in their best performances ever. They took the show to another level with those last two legs of the tour so I'm extremely surprised they haven't picked a show from them. Tokyo seems an odd choice. Of course the best thing would've been a selection of shows including footage from the Foxboro show they filmed , that would've been amazing. I suppose any chance of that footage ever seeing the light of day is gone now
minorityxdisturbed Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 I'm excited about it, I'd like it that they could have choosen different songs from different places, but anyway, it's great to know that they are releasing an album
CzechIdiot Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 "A big thank you goes to our awesome as fuck fans from the Green Day Community who came up with the title of this album." Wouldn't that be the best thing EVER? I would die
unexplainedbacon Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 I am so happy about the title!! lol. When I get it my parents are going to be like, so what's that then?.....'em..awesome as fuck..".. :eyebrow:
jos_whatsername Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 holy fink they played redundant in tokyo and 2000 light years away they probably wont include this old stuff.. but IF ..
GuitarPunk94 Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 seriously...isnt this tokyo-only footage not getting the same as mtv world stage?? why not the big open-air concerts...stuff from SA or USA? i really hope for an explanation about this why tokyo is chosen, but fuck it, the title is the best ever
petros Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Oh I'm very happy we have news about the new live DVD. But come on...Only Tokyo?Why?Billie said they recorder every show(including video)... I don't know. Whatever it still is "Awesome As Fuck"!!!
Mato Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Oh I'm very happy we have news about the new live DVD. But come on...Only Tokyo?Why?Billie said they recorder every show(including video)... I don't know. Whatever it still is "Awesome As Fuck"!!! yeah, actually, he said they're recording a ''live fuckin album'', not pointing a video necessarily

Welcome To Paradise When I Come Around Brain Stew Jaded Longview Basket Case She King For A Day (+Shout and the medley) 21 Guns Minority American Idiot Jesus of Suburbia Good Riddance Maybe: 2000 Light Years Away, Burnout, Geek Stink Breath, American Eulogy, Last Night On Earth, Redundant and Wake Me Up When September Ends
GuitarPunk94 Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 The setlist will be probably: 21st Century Breakdown Know Your Enemy East Jesus Nowhere Holiday The Static Age [...] i dont think so...BIAB had just 14 songs in it...that would be too much songs but it would be nice if it will be like this setlist ^^
Opezi Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Im so excited!! The release date, Im so fuckin happy cause thats my birthday
Mar Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 I'm gonna write up a post on GDA explaining the name. While 95% of people seem to be excited about it, there's been a few comments from people who don't know the meaning of it and were bitching. One comment was like "Come on, you guys aren't Weezer," alluding to the random names they use like Raditude and Hurley. Good idea! "A big thank you goes to our awesome as fuck fans from the Green Day Community who came up with the title of this album." Wouldn't that be the best thing EVER? Oh shit, this place would explode.
GDJonny Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Which are you guys looking forward to more? CD or DVD?
Marki. Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 I would die Ikr that would be so amazing =) Oh shit, this place would explode. Yes, it totally would Which are you guys looking forward to more? CD or DVD? CD! I'm so ridiculously excited about it. I hope there will be at least 1 song from the shows I attended.
Johannamunter Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Which are you guys looking forward to more? CD or DVD? definitely DVD cause I know every second on BIAB by heart, so I'm really excited to see something new
Katarina. Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 I'm gonna write up a post on GDA explaining the name.

One comment was like "Come on, you guys aren't Weezer," alluding to the random names they use like Raditude and Hurley. Even more reason for whoever is making the cover art and all that for the record to include photos in the booklet with people holding up the "thank you" and "awesome as fuck" signs.
Holly Ann Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Which are you guys looking forward to more? CD or DVD? dee vee dee.
Katarina. Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 "A big thank you goes to our awesome as fuck fans from the Green Day Community who came up with the title of this album." I was thinking about that too. That would be beyond awesome. Or just, if there's a thank you section at all, there's one last line on the bottom of the page saying like "We/Green Day thank you"
ganis Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Awsome as fuck.... that name is just... how should I put it... Awesome as Fuck... I think it's a great title summing up the tour I can't wait!!!! esspecially for the DVD, but also offcourse for the CD
LMC Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 I actually don't think Japan is a bad choice for the DVD at all. I imagine Tokyo as a pretty crazy city, with a whole lot of crazy people (no offense to the japanese ). And the Basket Case recording from the Last Night On Earth EP is fantastic. Billie's voice is just perfect, and the fans aren't bad either. The only thing that I'm not that enthusiastic about is that it's and indoor show. Outdoor shows in the summer are unbeatable.
Katarina. Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Wait. I didn't know it actually got confirmed it'll get released on March 15. That is even more awesome as fuck! So excited! Only three months to wait, and it gets released eight days before I turn 18. Great birthday present right there.
Marki. Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Seems like a lot of GDCer's birthday is in March "We/Green Day thank you" :') Even just a line like that would be great. The only thing that I'm not that enthusiastic about is that it's and indoor show. Outdoor shows in the summer are unbeatable. It's an indoor show? When I think about all the incredible summer outdoor shows...
OliDayyy Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Let's hope we'll have some footage from the stadium shows in the bonus of the dvd !
heyohbilliejoe Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 i'm so excited about this if wembleys on there what do people think the song will be?? me and 21 guns thought 21CB, minority or king for a day/shout/all the other covers they did eg. hey juuuuuuuuuuuude.
