Bastard of 1967 Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 actually, that's the myth. In Oklahoma, where's she's from, Billie Joe is a common guy name. Poor people. Yes, but the feminine spelling ("Billie" instead of "Billy") isn't common.
LetItBeHappy Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 Yes, but the feminine spelling ("Billie" instead of "Billy") isn't common. really? I thought it was. At least down here there are femine girls that are usually used for guys
Trina Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 GDA says august 2004. According to wikipedia, the single was released on August 31st. No more info though Yeah.. :\ I'm sure someone here must know when exactly though?! I think it was definitely the twenty-something-th of August but I'd really like to know the exact date cause I'm weird like that. Thanks!
LetItBeHappy Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 Yeah.. :\ I'm sure someone here must know when exactly though?! I think it was definitely the twenty-something-th of August but I'd really like to know the exact date cause I'm weird like that. Thanks! don't worry, i'm like that too i think i'll be the rest of the day with that question bugging me EDIT: Ok, according to MTV, the video was posted there on August 11th, 2004, so the release date would be around that date, right?
Trina Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 Okay, I got a good one.. Let's try and think of all the names Green Day/Sweet Children went through (even in the very early days when they were just messing around) cause there were many!! Blood Rage is a particular favorite of mine. LOL Condom, Desecrated Youth... Anyone know anymore?! don't worry, i'm like that too i think i'll be the rest of the day with that question bugging me EDIT: Ok, according to MTV, the video was posted there on August 11th, 2004, so the release date would be around that date, right? Aww! Ooh! Thank you! I think it was possibly online for a good few days (even a couple of weeks?!) before it made it to tv but this has helped narrow it down.

I could totally imagine if they had kept one of these, Welcome to Condom Community !!!
Trina Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 phahaha I've never heard of those Where did they mention these names? I could totally imagine if they had kept one of these, Welcome to Condom Community !!! I think Blood Rage was mentioned in that big Kerrang Green Day special and the other two were possibly mentioned in the biography, Nobody Likes You. Sorry if I'm wrong! AHAHAHAHA!!! xD That made me laugh so much! omg
Opezi Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 i was one of those who suggested this thread.. who sang back-up in dominated love slave? the album version from kerplunk? mike sang back up.

Sorry if I'm wrong! AHAHAHAHA!!! xD That made me laugh so much! omg Thanks a lot for the info. I guess you learn something new every day Even if that includes your favourite band being quite.. creative in choosing their names Blood Rage - yeah it does sound like something Billie would suggest

I guess you learn something new every day Even if that includes your favourite band being quite.. creative in choosing their names Blood Rage - yeah it does sound like something Billie would suggest No problem! Haha, I just find it such a hilarious name. I just checked my Kerrang magazine btw and yeah, it said they were called Blood Rage in it. Also mentioned the name, 'Truant'. This was still when they were playing metal covers and stuff. Anyone know anymore names?!
Nele Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 i was one of those who suggested this thread.. who sang back-up in dominated love slave? I'd say it's Mike.
kerplunk_chick Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 does anyone know the story behind haushinka? i've been on a nimrod kick for about a week now, and i've listened to the album non-stop on the way to and from work. there is something really intriguing about haushinka to me, that i didn't feel before. what's the story? did billie ever make a statement in any interviews about who she was?
whatsername343 Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 does anyone know the story behind haushinka? i've been on a nimrod kick for about a week now, and i've listened to the album non-stop on the way to and from work. there is something really intriguing about haushinka to me, that i didn't feel before. what's the story? did billie ever make a statement in any interviews about who she was? I've read somewhere that she was a girl he used to write letters with or something I dont know if thats the story but thats what i know ^^
~Ani~ Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 it's about a girl Billie met in Japan (named Haushinka) while touring. He told her that he'd write a song about her. It was written in 1992. that's what I found on GDA in the song meaning section. I'm not sure if it's true though EDIT: Now that I thought about it, it can't be true as they didn't tour in Japan in '92
Hermione Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 No problem! Haha, I just find it such a hilarious name. I just checked my Kerrang magazine btw and yeah, it said they were called Blood Rage in it. Also mentioned the name, 'Truant'. This was still when they were playing metal covers and stuff. Anyone know anymore names?! From what I've read I don't think Blood Rage was one of Green Day's old names. It was a different band that Billie was in when he was like 13 or 14 - a really bad heavy metal type of band (which explains the name ).

I think it was possibly online for a good few days (even a couple of weeks?!) before it made it to tv but this has helped narrow it down. you're welcome... Damn you, google, for not having more info and I was gonna say Truant, but you already posted it does anyone know the story behind haushinka? i've been on a nimrod kick for about a week now, and i've listened to the album non-stop on the way to and from work. there is something really intriguing about haushinka to me, that i didn't feel before. what's the story? did billie ever make a statement in any interviews about who she was? I once read that it was a girl that he met on their first tour in Japan... Which brings another question: When was Green Day's first tour to Japan? From what I've read I don't think Blood Rage was one of Green Day's old names. It was a different band that Billie was in when he was like 13 or 14 - a really bad heavy metal type of band (which explains the name ). I thought it was a band where he and Mike played metal with other people
Hermione Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 I thought it was a band where he and Mike played metal with other people Oh yeah Mike might've been in it too, still could be a seperate band though.
Charlotte2010 Posted July 23, 2010 Posted July 23, 2010 I've seen a couple of Green Day fans say, "It'll be a pole." and I have no idea where that originated from or what it means. Help?
Bastard of 1967 Posted July 23, 2010 Posted July 23, 2010 I've seen a couple of Green Day fans say, "It'll be a pole." and I have no idea where that originated from or what it means. Help? NYC FHT ambush concerts earlier this year, around the AIOB opening week in late April. The Rev tweeted this:
LetItBeHappy Posted July 23, 2010 Posted July 23, 2010 that reminded me... what the heck means sting? or is just a made up word by the rev?
BringMoreKnives Posted July 23, 2010 Posted July 23, 2010 that reminded me... what the heck means sting? or is just a made up word by the rev? I wonder this too...
jenni Posted July 23, 2010 Posted July 23, 2010 I once read that it was a girl that he met on their first tour in Japan... Which brings another question: When was Green Day's first tour to Japan? January 1996
