Would they even do a WMUWSE joke in 2006? It'd be pretty out of date.

People still make them lol.

EDIT: Rats, Tman beat me :lol:

Does anyone have any idea of what or why Billie is writing at around 2:35 in this video?

I think he's signing an autograph

There was a lot of stuff on the paper, though. It kind of looked like a setlist, though. Or maybe he was writing down the songs that the crowd reacted well to.

He was signing a poster for that concert. I don't have a picture of it but I can tell its the poster with the Kerplunk girl that they advertised the Red 7 show with

hey everyone :)

got a little question... hope you can help :)

Every year my hometown orchestra is giving a little concert.. its more a fun thing.

For this i wanted to ask if anyone knows where to find good arrangements of green day songs for orchestra, maybe a medley would be nice...? But i have to say that without guitars those fast songs sound a bit freaky for my taste so i thought of songs like brutal love for example..? but im happy for every guess :)

hope anyone can help me :) it would be so great to do a green day song next concert :)

thank you :wub:

I don't know if this will be of any help, but have you checked out the string quartet versions of American Idiot? Maybe not what you're looking for, but it could be useful for ideas etc. I think BOBD is particularly good. http://www.vitaminstringquartet.com/green-day.html

People still make those jokes today, now it's really out of date

I meant outside the Green Day fandom :P

But yeah having listened to that several times now, it REALLY isn't Billie's voice lol

Definitely fake. Sounds like a really bad actor.

I'm trying to put a dookie live album together on my computer and I was wondering if anyone knows where i can find the best quality live songs for Having A Blast, Chump, Pulling Teeth, Sassafras Roots, Emenius Sleepus, and In The End?

check the downloads forum. I don't think there are good recordings of some of those though, perhaps there is something on the newer shows where they played Dookie front to back.

If the downloads section doesn't have what you're after, the full Reading set including all of Dookie is on YouTube, so you could download the video as mp3 and split the recordings up yourself.

Other people do too lol

The downloads section does have the full Reading show.

Why would you do that instead of just downloading Reading?

I spent a good two week working on that Reading show, and I made the thread for it too. So the downloads section damn well better have it!

Yes, it is.

Ok so I saw the thread for the song State of Shock from whatever show it was and I began wondering: Did any GDC members go to any of those 2011 shows? I would love clarification about setlists, especially the mystery of Dirty Rotten Bastards being played at that show on Halloween...

Can anyone tell me if the trilogy box set with the pink skull on it has the lyric books and the same pictures on the front and back of the cd's?

I don't know what he's talking about but the special editions did come with a lyric book. It's just in an actual book form.

Yeah loads of GDCers went to them. For some reason the threads for the 2011 shows are in Green Day Chat instead of the Previous Tour Dates forum so they're a bit tricky to find, but here's the Halloween one:

Dirty Rotten Bastards wasn't played there unfortunately, it was written on the band's planned setlist that they took on stage but they didn't stick to it so a lot of the songs on it weren't played. If you want to find the other threads you should go to the advanced search and trying searching around for the names of the venues in both just titles and titles & posts.

whatever you do, dont order on amazon. i bought tre for my mother there together with cuatro and it was nearly destroyed when it arrived and i had troubles to get them changed.. :/

I've been listening to When it's time the last few days.

When did Billie first play this song live?

July 28th '09 MSG?

I just remember that in the summer of 09 i found that video on youtube, and i was not able to close that link, that song just really did catch me. And maybe you can tell me which your favorite video of that song is.

Thanks.
