OverjoyedAndroid Posted October 15, 2010 Posted October 15, 2010 thanks so much for reading my story!!!!! I had another race today, and when i got home, i immediately downloaded the podcast and was so happy when you read it! Alex, if you ever front a band, you should call yourseves "Alex and his Dulcet Tones" Haha very true dude. Nice story, too. I have a friend that has "dulcet tones" too, and the first time I heard the podcast I laughed do hard because it sounded just like my friend. Also wanted to say that I love the podcast because when Mikey's on it, it's fucking hilarious, and when he's not, it's a great way to get Green Day news. Keep up the good work!
Isabel Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 I am the biggest spa of all time. I just turned on the podcast and thought "Oooooh, Sassafras Roots is playing over the conversation at the beginning!" I was about to comment on it in absolute delight; then I realised that it was actually just my music player with SR playing in the background at a very low volume. I have to go to work now but I'll definitely listen too it later!
Marki. Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 Seems like an awesome episode, I'm finally gonna listen to it today... I love Billie's response to the letter... That letter inspired the song Reject It did? :-O I thought of Reject when I read it but I didn't know it actually inspired the song...
JohannaRaeRamone. Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 I've gotta find the time to listen to this, sounds like a good one! With a tittle like that it couldn't be anything else. And those letters get me pumped up to go slap a mom in the face. I don't know why some parents think they're entittled to controling artists just because they've entered the realm of their household via their child. Billie owned her!
Li Sa Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 always nice to listen to you guys OT: I really love your sig theclassof13
DorkWithAFork Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 I LOVED the story you guys read! I'm a cross country runner too and since we can't use our iPods during meets I always sing a song in my head. I usually sing Green Day since it's so upbeat and it really helps me pace. Last year, when 21 Guns was a single, I would sing that. However, it's not the BEST motivation... "do you know what's worth fighting for when it's not worth dying for? does it take your breath away and you feel yourself suffocating?" haha, not great to think about when running. I found out that Dookie is really good to run too...And American Idiot (the song not the album) is really good too. Either way, it was cool being able to relate to that story SAAAAME. I'm a cross country runner too and I always sing green day songs in my head! heehee
Smoothed Out Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 Great to hear you on there Aska You did a really good job Nice episode guys, and I have say Billie's response to that letter is epic.
jos_whatsername Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 "I'd like to have a Llama. That'd be WAY cooler than a horse." hahaha i love that part of the conversation
Maura99 Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 Great episode. I listened to it at lunch this week; it's my weekly 'getaway'... I just love that hour to myself. About the GD-shows: I think I can tell when they are 'better than other nights' too. I've only seen them three times though, but still, I can compare. My first show was definitely the best. Even though I was a total GD-noob back then (and I didn't know what to expect yet, what made me a little bit easier to impress maybe), the energy of that night remains unsurpassed. That was exactly one year ago. I still get chills down my spine when I hear the opening lines of 21CB, with the overexcited screams of the crowd in the background... And I still tear up a little when I hear the closing lines of Good Riddance, with the crowd singing along as if everyone was saying goodbye to them... It was so fucking amazing. Not that the other two shows weren't awesome as well. The last time I saw them, I was even second row at the barrier. I will probably never see them so up-close again in my life. I screamed at the top of my longs the entire time and had a real blast. However, it felt like they were playing more of a 'routine'... idk. Pretty normal when you've been on tour for so long. It just goes to show; that's GD for ya: even if they're not at their best, it's still fucking great. But, that magic of the first night... right there in the pit... That is something I will never forget. Ever. Sorry that I started rambling on there, it wasn't the intention.

addictedjamie Posted October 18, 2010 Posted October 18, 2010 Awesome episode, I loved Aska on the show. She had some great memories The sound effects are awesome, and really add something to the show. And Alex, where was the Lancastrian accent? I'm waaaaiting.
BringMoreKnives Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 Awesome episode! I especially loved the story at the end. I should try that next time i'm running track
