Green Day Question and Answer Thread

[sara_gd]

Some time ago I found a song where Green Day played and a girl singed (I think), or maybe Billie singed too, I'm not sure. I can't remember who was this other girl/band with a girl singing. I think it wasn't a fan remix but an actual song they made, though I think I was still getting into Green Day when I found it, so it could be a song that I didn't know then.

I've just searched "Green Day and" on Youtube and Avril Lavigne and Adele come up. It's not them.

Any idea of what I'm talking about?

You mean this one?

It's was recorded with Penelope Houston from The Avengers.

[sara_gd]

^Yes! I remember the name "Penelope" now that you mentioned it. Thanks!!!

I just thought of one thing, do you think the "tré" album would be a Tré cool recopilation? (like a rat does cheesse and that kind of songs) XD that would be amazing!

[E!!i]

thought about this too but I don't really think so but it could be that the drum parts in those songs are more dominating or there are more funny songs than on the others but not only funny songs

[It's Splash Time]

I think they just called it Tre for the puns, not for any real reason as to what is on the albums.

[solongfromthestars]

I didn't even know that song existed oops. I'm a bad fan.

Yeah, I agree. That's what I meant on the Uno Dos Tre thread when I said I didn't think it was anything to do with Tre and everyone wondered wtf I was on about guess I didn't phrase it right, haha.

i thought about it, too, but i think they either just do some new tre songs and/or finally release older tre songs like Like A Rat Does Cheese, but the main part of the album are "normal" green day songs or it's just a pun in the album names, but they don't do anything tre related on the album...

[Hermione]

I think if they happen to have made a song that has Tre singing on it they'll put it on the Tre album rather than the other two just because that would be fitting and funny. But other than that I agree it's probably just a pun and doesn't have anything to do with what's actually on the album. Just have to wait and see though, seems like anything's possible with Green Day these days!

[Undómiel]

Think they really were seriously planning to do that horror movie thing, they talked about it in a few different interviews. But like their plan to make a (non-musical) movie of American Idiot the plans must have fallen through. I think that's just the way it is with movies, getting them made is very complicated and difficult so plans for them often don't work out.

I didn't know it had fallen through.... whoops.

[Hermione]

I didn't know it had fallen through.... whoops.

Well they acted like they were definitely gonna make it and were really excited about it but then they didn't so I assume it fell through . Seems like the movie of the musical is a totally separate idea/offer that came much later, they stopped talking about their plan to make a non musical movie of the album a couple of years before the musical even existed.

[green day is]

Anyone know how much higher they played Brain Stew? Sounds like either a step or half a step.

[Gwen Stacy]

But other than that I agree it's probably just a pun and doesn't have anything to do with what's actually on the album.

That makes sense. Another Tre one-off a la Dominated Love Slave. It'd be cool if that song were to end the album

why were jaded, she, maria, knowledge, we are the champions and homecoming omitted from BIAB?

[E!!i]

why were jaded, she, maria, knowledge, we are the champions and homecoming omitted from BIAB?

cause there wasn't enough space left on the dvd I guess

[Annie, get your gun]

They should have put them anyway I don't like to see two different performances of one song mixed. Too much footage wasted; they filmed two shows and didn't even left all the songs...

[StuckWithRob]

why were jaded, she, maria, knowledge, we are the champions and homecoming omitted from BIAB?

If they put 'Knowledge' on they would have had all sorts of issues with the members of the public who played the song, and royalties etc.

If you listen to the recording of 'She' on YouTube it goes wrong at the end (although not sure why they don't just mix in the other day's performance)

Homecoming is very long so maybe there wouldn't have been room on the DVD (in those days at least)

But I'm not sure for the others! Would have loved to have seen 'Maria'' on there at least!

What about Shout?

What about JOS? XD

what do you mean with two different performances of one song mixed? did they mix both days together?

What about Shout?

What about JOS? XD

maybe with Jesus of Suburbia the dvd was full and so Homecoming didn't fit anymore

[StuckWithRob]

What about Shout?

What about JOS? XD

There aren't members of the public on 'Shout', and I suppose they thought they HAD to include JOS, they love it so much. But who knows? (except Green Day themselves of course)

[Annie, get your gun]

Yeah, if you pay attention in Are We the Waiting, in a part where they're singing "Are we we are, are we we are the waiting" on the screen you can see Billie wearing a hat

And when he's presenting the band you can see him with this guitar:

but when he's presenting Jason Freese you see another guitar that also says "Green Day" but it has another design and only one star:

That's what I've notice so far (after all the times I've seen it). I'm not saying is wrong or anything, but it really would have been great to see the 2 days of concert

[TheJedi]

I remember watching some videos of Green Day talking about every song on 21st Century Breakdown.. i really want to see them again, but cant find them. Do you know the names of the videos on youtube?

[agrizotti]

Here's the one where they talk about 21stCB. The other songs are related to this video on youtube.
