Why is Tre's instagram name is treleparc?

It's a play on the term "trailer park." Tré's humor at it's best!

How much would a copy of Dookie with Ernie on the back be worth? How rare is it?

Not rare at all. Finding a copy with or without Ernie is equally easy to find, neither one is rare.

Nah, it's not rare, or worth too much. I have one, and i got it for 10 bucks. It's cheap, but it's nice to know when you have Dookie from 1994!

Wait what, there are versions without Ernie? Why? :)

Some copyright problems back in 1994 so a limited release in America had him photoshopped out. In most countries though he was still on the back.

#4 doesn't seem right...

Thanks. <3 I spotted that one straight away, but 19, 21 and 30 seemed weird in some way as well.

Guess 21 proves that a lot has changed; I remember him saying that it's great Tom's not fertile back in mid-90s.

Why did Butch Vig produce 21stcb and not Rob Cavallo?

Well at the end of the AI sessions Rob ate the last piece of gum and that pissed Billie off and fired him

But serious answer is the band and Rob had disagreements tho I dont think they ever really said what exactly the disagreements were as far as I know

There was a copyright dispute about Green Day's right to use Ernie on their album artwork, since Ernie was a copyrighted character, so the band just decided to take him off.

I still haven't been able to find a copy with Ernie on the back. :(

in the USA i think they took all of them off. in Canada the one available in stores is the one with Ernie thought. :)

Because parents bought dookie for their kids because they thought it was a sesamestreet cd :lol:

So it's actually true? I thought I read that somewhere before but it just seemed ridiculous to me. :lol:

Others are correct Ernie is a copyrighted charector without permission GD woulda been sued and gone bankrupt

I heard they released the version with Ernie on the back and then took him off for the second pressing. Either way, there are some early copies of the CD with Ernie on the back in the U.S., and it is my goal to find one without the help of the Internet. :P

Why isn't Jason's face on the Quatro DVD in the boxset?

Probably a marketing thing. Most casual fans won't really know who Jason is, so it'd make more sense to put the whole band on there rather than just him.

Does anybody know where the audio of this is from? It sounds like it's professionally recorded.

Did they release a live version of the song on a single or something?

That makes no sense seeing it waa only being sold with the box set

by marketing I guess I meant more of the promotional posters for the X Games thing and SXSW

yes, but even people on GDC refused that meant anything about his band membership
