Lauren Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 Weird seeing them perform without a crowd! Billie keeps staring up at the sky and looks a bit awkward at times. Must have been a huge disappointment for the fans waiting since midnight to see them. I was there in person, so I didn't catch everything. Was the teaser them actually playing, or a recording? I know they sound checked Nuclear Family, but it wasn't on the official set list.

I know they sound checked Nuclear Family, but it wasn't on the official set list. They showed a few seconds of the sound check - just the instrumental part, before Oh Love.

Femme Gauche Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 The way it seemed to me was just that they caught the end of the song?
Jax Teller Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 Haven't noticed anything strange in Billie's voice....Love the vocals as always!! The only strange in whole appearance was that the public was crap and didn't give any energy to the band... FREE PUSSY RIOT
Femme Gauche Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 His voice definitely sounded different, without a doubt. He sounded great, don't get me wrong. It just was a little "off". He was trying extra hard to get the notes - which he did, but it was a little more difficult, or at least it seemed that way. My favorite performance was definitely "Holiday", though, just because it was a really good execution of the song. And I loved their movements and stuff the whole time.
HeeeyOhhhBillieJoe Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 It wasn't as good as the last time they appeared of GMA, mostly due to the fact it was on a damn rooftop. Who's bright idea was that? the fans can't even see them..what bullshit. And Billie looks kinda ill. Even my gf said he looks kinda..off? Probably hasn't recovered yet. I'm wondering if Billie is well enough to tour/do promotion?

Mar Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 Yup. Look, neither George nor Billie are dwarfed by the person they're talking to XD. Aww, that's presh. LOVING STN.
A melodramatic fool. Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 Lol why is everyone wearing something maroon-colored? I think Mike and Jason F are the only ones not wearing maroon. Did anyone else notice that? Hahaha, I noticed! Awww, they match! Ohh yeah, and the performance was pretty damn awesome

GreenDayisAmazing Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 I missed it hope it's on Youtube soon! They didn't completely bleep out the swearing in Longview when Green Day played GMA in 2009. They could bleep out the one "fuck" in Stay the Night. In terms of new songs, it will probably be Oh Love and something else. GMA allowed Green Day to play several songs in 2009, including Know Your Enemy, American Idiot, 21st Century Breakdown, Longview, She, etc. Haha the bleeping on the youtube video for GMA during Longview sucked! They missed all the curse words.
whatsername Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 It did sound different but it was still enjoyable. It's nice to watch performances of them outside in the sun...on a rooftop.
Femme Gauche Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 I missed it hope it's on Youtube soon! Haha the bleeping on the youtube video for GMA during Longview sucked! They missed all the curse words. Just look at GDA . It's all up there.

I'm wondering if Billie is well enough to tour/do promotion? I thought that, looked ill and thin Also maybe Billie was chewing nicotine gum? I'm sure i saw an interview a little while back where he said he'd quit smoking
Annie, get your gun Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 Love the performance!!! My fav was Holiday♥ I wasn't able to watch Stay the Night yet. Haven't noticed anything weird other than Billie and his heavy hand droping a few picks and I could barely see Tré and Mike, WTF
Mandy_PunkRock Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 Great performance! I have so much love for Stay The Night... I'm addicted to this song!
belinda jane Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 Loooved Stay The Night!! They sounded fucking great for an early as hell performance.
Femme Gauche Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 I thought that, looked ill and thin Also maybe Billie was chewing nicotine gum? I'm sure i saw an interview a little while back where he said he'd quit smoking Yeah I was wondering if maybe that was the reason for the gum too.
scottrowan200 Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 There seemed to be a lot of reverb echo on the vocals. Freeeeeee pussy riooooooot
.:Whatsername:. Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 It looked like Oh Love was kind of difficult to sing, but maybe that's just me looking into things too much. Or maybe Billie still isn't feeling that great. Anyways the rest of it was awesome, except I didn't watch the video of Stay the Night because I want to at least have some new songs to hear when I actually get UNO. I don't really like how it was on the roof though. Green Day is always awesome when they're interacting with fans and no one could see them up there. Meh.
BradGreenDay Posted September 15, 2012 Posted September 15, 2012 I really want to hear stay the night.... but i want to wait for the album to come out!!!
Femme Gauche Posted September 15, 2012 Posted September 15, 2012 It looked like Oh Love was kind of difficult to sing, but maybe that's just me looking into things too much. Or maybe Billie still isn't feeling that great. Well if ti was difficult to sing I imagine the sole reason would be because he was ill.
