Is there a video of this or did someone make up the captions? (Is this the fox theater gig?)

Yeah it's the Fox Theatre, I don't know if there's a video online but he did say that, at the beginning of Longview I think.

Slappy on eBay:

There's several different versions/colours of Sweet Children and it's usually very expensive, but there's one for $9.99 starting bid here:

There's a few of each on eBay, if you keep checking you might be able to get one cheaper :)

Also I don't know if you're looking for the originals or re-releases, if you don't mind which then the re-releases are a lot cheaper.

Is 'Brown Eyed Girl' an actual Green Day song? Never heard of it and just saw someone mention it. I Googled it and it said it's actually a Lagwagon song?

Brown Eyed Girl is an old Van Morrison song from the 60s (but loads of different artists have covered it including Lagwagon). Green Day have never played it as far as I know but there's a Pinhead Gunpowder song called Beastly Bit where Billie sings "You, my green haired girl" as a parody of the line "You, my brown eyed girl" from that song. That could be where the connection came from.

Edit: Just looked it up on Youtube and it seems it's just that people hear the Lagwagon version and mistakenly think it's Green Day (even though it doesn't sound anything like Billie's voice :lol:). So yeah it's just that.

Haha, thanks. Crazy that people think the Lagwagon one is Green Day.

What happened to Billie's Blue guitar ?

What happened to Billie's Blue guitar ?

He still uses it on stage. Some time around the Nimrod era it got so broken/worn out that he couldn't use it anymore so he used replicas instead for several years. But then at some point before American Idiot he got it fixed. He used it on the American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown tours (except on the last leg of the 21st CB tour in South America, he used a replica there because the original was having some maintenance done to it).

Speaking of the 21CBD demo (which I don't know why it was brought up), does anyone have the notes for the piano intro?

Is Billie still bisexual? I heard in a YouTube commentary that he had already declared he's hetero,but he admitted having had some doubts.

He said in Out magazine that he'd never say he isn't bisexual, but that he isn't sure he still considers himself bi. It used to be on his Wiki page but now there's only the part of the quote that says "I don't really classify myself as anything."

But yeah, I guess that part explains it.

I think Billie's point is that it doesn't matter to him either way if he finds other men or women attractive... he is married after all.

On the Foxboro Hottub's website, when you click on "MP3s", it goes to this random page in Japanese. What's up with that? :blink:
