Alright so i've been wondering this for quite a while.

the songs on 1,039 are all about being in love with that girl that already has a boyfriend and that''s only a friend of billie.

paper lanterns, only of you, the one i want, dry ice .. you know. it's all about that.

but billie didn't know adie at that moment.

was that all about erica ? almost has to be, right?

because i always thought he wrote about real things that happen(ed) to him and not just some fictional stuff.

and if that wouldnt have happened to him, why would nearly every song from 1,039 be about that topic?

hmm.. just wondering.

Well I have no idea what the names of Billie's ex girlfriends are, but it is possible that those songs were about several different girls. Not necessarily just one called Erica, but I wouldn't really know.

this is sort of a Green Day question... (sorry to keep asking things!) can anyone actually find a copy of spy rock road by the lookouts at all or is it one of those CD's were about 10 were made?

Well, I doubt they were all about the same girlfriend. Maybe a couple are about that Erica girl, but I don't think all the songs are about the same girl.

I think this might be something you should create a new thread for so more people can see it. Not as easy of an answer.

I don't know if this question's really stupid or not, so I'm sorry if it is, but I'm kind of clueless about this :lol:

I've been looking at tickets for AI in Feb, any of the shows between the 19th and 22nd (I can't get to the last one anymore :( ). I'm sure the front row is long gone, but is it at all possible for me to still get tickets within the first few rows? Is there anywhere at all I could get them from even for a crazy price? I'm quite happy with the Row F ones on the website, but if possible I'd like to be closer.

You got a question in the Kerrang special???

Yes I was. :cool:

I sent them about 100 questions and one day i got that mail: "your question has bee nchosen send a picture your name and location and all" and I was like:"eh sorry which question of all those ? xD"

I was sooooo excited when the article came out and the scans showed up...I mean MY FACE with MY question next to tre in KERRANG <3 it was WONDERFUL...but I was sooooo pissed I couldnt buy it in Germany :(

links to the scans are on my "about me" page + my pic looked awful

:ninja:, but still one of the best things that ever happened to me.

Nope not at all. :(

And my mom doesn't let me buy things from out of Germany :pinch:

thats the problem with Kerrang,maybe they could be accused of not caring for fans featured in the magazines? plus they seem to be a little bit biased towards bands no matter what they do. I'm not a fan of Metal or things like that, as im sure quite a few Kerrang readers aren't, yet they insist on putting us through things like Parkway Drive. I can't listen to music where there is no singing, just screaming.

It was only on vinyl. You could still get it, it's a fucking great collector's item, but I recommend getting the digital downloads that were put out, you can find them everywhere and they're great quality [for the time and place they were recorded].

[Edit:] I really should start paying attention to page numbers. I keep answering questions that already have answers/solutions.

Does anyone know what they did/are gonna do with all the footage they got of the 2009 Phoenix show? There was such a big deal being made over it being filmed and everything, and we got 2 videos out of it, but other than that, nothing. I was hoping it was going to be included in with AAF too, but has anyone heard anything?

I don't know about the video, but - correct me if I'm wrong - Cigs and Valentines audio is from that show. And that show that I could have possibly been at had I had the money, as well.

Posted

Yeah, the C&V audio was from Phoenix. I don't know about the video though, I'm guessing they're not going to use it :(

Edit: oh wait sorry, I just realised you said 2009 :lol: sorry, I was thinking of 2010. Stupid me

Posted

Yeah she meant this show:

That video (along with 21st Century Breakdown) was on Verizon's Facebook-page for their fans to see. And if i remember right they said that there will be more to come, but after those two videos, there haven't been any new ones.
