Agreed. That and, "GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY FUCKING GARDEN!"

How I love Green Day. ♥

I remember thinking "Oh God, Billie looks so fucking short in front of Will Ferrell! He's like a giant!"

Same! Expecially when they hugged at the end. Oh gosh...

EDIT: I just realised, this was my 250th post. I'M OFFICIALLY A CHUMP!

[whatsername]

I am excited for this and it's great it is only NEXT month! Here before we know it! I will always love the cowbell lol

[Cori]

Gosh. I'm really excited for this. Why does it have to be at the end of October? That seem like forever from now!

I love the Cowbell version of East Jesus Nowhere. Very nice. I do hope they play something new, though. My guess is that there is probably a good chance that they will. Maybe they'll announce something sometime soon, since they're putting themselves out there again...?

[Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love]

It's on the 23rd of October? If I'm right that's my three year GDC anniversary [edit: yep, right]. That's cool. Shame it's not aired until the 31st.

Do we know anything about how much they're gonna play yet? Just a song, or several? I'll be happy that they play either way, though, it's been a while since we got new proper footage (because you can't exactly call what we have from the Tiki show "high quality" )

[Sanity Loan]

We have one, and I'm working on getting some new HD capture gear installed here so I can actually dump stuff out of it. No promises yet, but I'll see what I can do.

My set-up is perfect I will be recording it in glorious HD

[Ingrid]

^ sounds good!

Are you going to share it lossless this time? Or, just an hd mp4 as usual?

Are you really going to bitch about me taking the time to record it and upload it? You should thank me. If you're so desperate to get (hardly noticeable) lossless, then record it yourself. I'm not going to cater to several requests.

I'll use good compression that makes it look fine.

Wasn't trying to bitch, I'm sorry. I do appreciate you taking the time to record and upload it. I just really wish you would upload something lossless for once, I mean, people like me will offer you other rare GD recordings for it too. It just looks better I cannot record it myself, so, that is why I wish you would upload it lossless. Sorry if I offended you.

I apologize for my post but I just felt like you were complaining. I read it as if you were saying my mp4 uploads are shitty and worthless and that you didn't appreciate my work. And I didn't really take your lossless "question" as a question. It seemed pretty condescending.

Ahh! Awesome! Thank you!

[DoodleBob]

I'm so happy. I actually get a station that shows Green Day! Finally! I'm definitely going to watch this!

[beejeezee]

Can't wait to see this

I hope Will plays with them, you can never have enough cowbell

[Monica.]

aww yay! I can't wait to watch this! Cowbells better be involved with their performance!

[Smoothed Out]

Omg that's gonna be so awesome...they better play East Jesus Nowhere again, I was laughing for like a fortnight straight. "Is this song not over yet?"

I'm still getting out of my noob stage insofar as HD re-rendering goes, but I have yet to match the size vs quality balance that you have. I can get comparable quality during my MP4 re-renders, but it usually comes out a hundred or so MB larger than yours do. I gotta pump you for info on how to optimize that further.

Fantastic!

Upload it as a raw ts then!

[secondGuessMe]

Sorry, I just wanted an excuse to post the video on here. It's probably one of my favorite Green Day preformances ever. I loved it when Billie was singing the bridge and Will like like "Wait, is the song still going?" And Billie started cracking up.

Maybe we should all just tweet Billie about playing this song with Will.... until he gives in? or maybe they'll play a new song???

[Bastard of 1967]

Ummmm.......no.

[Guest EDIT]

Why not?

[Margo 39 smooth]

I looked into why I wasn't able to go to this and its some black tie event where only super rich people or celebrity's get to go. I actually heard that tickets were like $1000 each so... I called up my friend who was the head usher at the Kennedy center and turns out the bitch got fired (she actually is a bitch so i can say that )

So idk what I'm gonna do that day. Have no idea where they'll be. If you were a rock band in the nation's capital, where you go? lol
