Was Billie's signature Les Paul discontinued? Someone mentioned in a thread that it was... :(

I haven't heard anything about that.

I totally didn't answer just so I could tell you that I love your avatar in a spoiler

^thank you! Billie's so fit in there!

You're welcome :) One interesting thing I noticed, is that I don't think Billie has his film strip tattoo of Adie yet in that video. I wonder when he actually got it done?

He had it in Bullet In A Bible, so it was some time in the first half of 2005.

This one? I don't think so, because you can still buy it from Gibson.

I didn't even think about checking Gibson.com...should have researched more about it. I kinda freaked out thinking that it was discontinued. :lol:

Anyway, thanks for answering. :)

Hey guys, I remember the UK leg of 2009 there was a moment when Billie pants got torn apart and he said something like: "Did you see my balls?" Is there any video around?

Haha! I'd never heard about that before but I just had a search around for the word balls in the old tour threads, it was at the 30/10/09 Manchester show. He went and changed his pants before BOBD and explained it was because he'd ripped them when he came back. Then in the middle of the song he asked that :lol:

Found a video, 1:50 :

I love that you found that from searching the forum with the world 'balls' lol

There was another time when his mic wires got tangled up or something, and so he undone his belt and dropped his trousers, then hopped off to the side of the stage to get it sorted XD I think there was a grainy video of that, I know there was a blurry photo

I remember seeing a video of that but I can't find it. Hopefully someone else will.

It was mentioned in the 'revealed' thread here but the video isn't on youtube anymore (user deleted their account)

I did find these videos but they are really bad quality

start of this one

end of this one (4.20ish) he's unbuckling his belt then the video cuts off

Do they fly to each of their shows in the US or do they take a bus?

They have busses.

Do we have any footage or know about Green Day playing Dominated Love Slave in the early years? I ask because in this video of 80, at 0:45 you can hear someone requesting DLS! I had no idea it was that old, as this footage is Gilman 1991!

DSL is from Kerplunk so yeah its fairly old. They is some footage of them playing it in the early days but I can't think of it off the top of my head. Just search around youtube and you will find some

There might be one in the "First Performances" thread. Not sure.

Seems like they played most/all of the songs on Kerplunk live during 1991, quite a while before the album came out. This is the earliest footage of DLS I know of, from December 1991 (according to Setlist fm this was the first time they played it, but I think it's really just the earliest footage that's around and they played it in the months before that as well just like the other Kerplunk songs)

There's also this one from 1992 (featuring an interesting view of Mike's outfit)

I was on Lyric Wiki and found this, 21st Century Breakdown extended edition. Does anyone know what it is?

http://lyrics.wikia....tended_Version)

I think it's known as 'bullshit' or 'fake'.

Seriously, that's very weird.

Posted

Oh my god :lol:. I WISH there was a version like that!

"Ladies and Gentlemen, we've had a successful take-off on this first 21st century breakdown.

Our flying time will be eight hours. We'll be travelling at a speed of 2183 miles per second.

That is, seven and one half million miles per hour.

The distance from Mother Earth to Venus is sixty million miles at this time."

Lolwut

I think the part that bothers me the most is that it says the meteor is approaching at the speed of light. Meteors don't now, nor have they ever gone the speed of light, or anywhere close to it for that matter.

I love your perspective on it. :lol: That "version" was great for a chuckle.
