PurpleIron1039 Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 I play flute in my high school's marching band, and we have to attend "band camp" for 5 days (9am-9pm) every summer, to learn the field show and marching music (this year we're doing a Queen medley for the field show, which is very cool. They were taking suggestions at the end of last year for possible shows for this year, and I tried to persuade the director to consider an AI-themed performance). Anyway, tonight, I was standing on the field waiting to go into the next set, when the percussion section ran by, and the only guy who wasn't shirtless was wearing a Dookie tee. I thought that that was pretty cool, considering that I didn't think that anyone in band was a GD fan besides myself. Quote

The new episode of Mr Robot had a lullaby version of Basket Case in it.. pretty cool to hear and instantly recognize Came to post this as I'm still catching up on Mr. Robot. Have to admit it took me a minute to realize it was Basket Case. 1 Quote
PurpleIron1039 Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 There are a fuck ton of obvious GD and Blink references in this (as you'd expect), but there was some stuff that made me think that he hasn't listened to a ton of pop punk. Quote

It says that the guy created it for his girlfriend. It is pretty stupid, but funny as hell too. When you lose, it pipes in with Billie and the "I've been around since 1988" line. 2 Quote
PurpleIron1039 Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 Green Day mentioned several times in this article: http://www.cleveland.com/entertainment/index.ssf/2016/08/9_acts_that_will_eventually_en.html Quote If Green Day were the forefathers of mainstream pop-punk, Blink-182 certainly cemented the genre as the future of rock radio. Albums like "Dude Ranch" and "Take Off Your Pants and Jacket" were highly influential, to the point where, if you look at the current landscape of rock, you'd be hard pressed to find a more influential act. Quote If there were a Mount Rushmore modern pop-punk it should include Bad Religion, Green Day, Blink-182 and Fall Out Boy. Pete Wentz and company may seem like simple bubble gum act to purists. But the truth is rock music has changed and so will the Rock Hall in terms of honoring younger acts that represent that evolution, none more than FOB. Personally, I think they should focus on getting the older prog rock and metal acts into the hall first. I don't think that any hip hop/rap or purely electronic music should be in the Rock Hall, but I can see (not necessarily agree with, but understand) Blink, Korn, and Oasis definitely getting in. 1 Quote

Libertine Angel Posted September 14, 2016 Posted September 14, 2016 I was at a gig last night and next to the stage there was a poster saying Kill Your Television (didn't get a picture though, it was next to the female toilets and that would've looked creepy ). 1 Quote
PurpleIron1039 Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Was just surfing Alex Skolnick's website (I've found some really cool stuff on there before, like his 2011 interview with KK Downing, so it's definitely one of my favorite websites to browse), and I came across this by accident: http://alexskolnick.com/?p=2636 "Billy Joe Armstrong" makes me grit my teeth a bit, though. Why does it seem to be so difficult for non-GD fans to spell his name correctly? Quote
