Jon Benjamin Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 My FYE never had Green Day, and then they closed and nobody cared ive seen some killer Green Day stuff at FYE, american idiot book years ago, imports, singles, 21stcbd 3 LP set. Also got blinks Cheshire Cat album for $6 that just says blink before they added 182, that's a $200 cd.
Jon Benjamin Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 I'd say Last Ride In, but that came out 99, right? Maybe the Welcome to Paradise video since that was UK-onlyWe'll the blink one isn't available anywhere and no one knows anything about it except the plot. It's probably something we didn't know had a video.
Xzavier Rodriguez Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 Does anyone know the amp settings on electric guitar for wake me up when September ends would really appreciate it if someone replied
Spike Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 Does anyone know the amp settings on electric guitar for wake me up when September ends would really appreciate it if someone replied Please post questions like this in the Q&A thread in future - I've moved it for you this time. Billie has a roughly flat EQ, so bass, mid and treble at around 5, with distortion at around 7 or 8 for that song, and a bit of reverb. If you really want to replicate the sound you'll need a hollowbody electric guitar (he used a Gretsch 6120 in the studio, Jason uses a Gibson ES335 live) and a huge stack of Marshalls. You should be able to get close enough with the settings I mentioned though, they're fundamentally his amp settings. Welcome to GDC, by the way
Spike Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 Thank you and sorry I did not know That's ok, no worries!

Welcome to GDC, by the way I get closer to AI's sound with Bass 8, Mid 5, Treble 10 and Overdrive 6. It depends so much on the guitar and amp that no answer will really do Xzavier justice, he needs to use his ears.
Hermione Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 I've been hearing it for almost a year now on a semi-regular basis and this is the first time I've ever heard it being called out so I just assumed it was true He mentioned his stage fright in RS said drinking was the way to open up to the crowd (im paraphrasing that part)Ahh right he has said it then. But what I'm saying is it isn't something you notice while watching him, he never looks nervous or anything other than full of confidence once he's on stage. If anyone says they've "noticed" it then I think it's only because he mentioned it and they're looking for differences and seeing ones that aren't really there. Any time anything about a Green Day show is slightly different (even if it isn't really different and has always happened, such as Billie forgetting the words of a song or singing a bit off) then there's some theory about it being to do with drugs/rehab. It's tiresome
The Disappearing Boy Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 If The Green Days needs a random, useless guitarist, then I'm your man

The Disappearing Boy Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 Do you have an inability to use facial expressions? It's probably my best talent, actually.
Todd Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 We'll the blink one isn't available anywhere and no one knows anything about it except the plot. It's probably something we didn't know had a video.Maybe. I don't know how our fan base compares to blink's, but we seem to know everything that's happened... Maybe something for She or 86, Prosthetic Head maybe.
Karl Karlson Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 Maybe. I don't know how our fan base compares to blink's, but we seem to know everything that's happened... Maybe something for She or 86, Prosthetic Head maybe. BJ mentioned plans for a "Prosthetic Head" video in an interview from 1997. Every bands seems to have an unfinished video^^
green day is Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 but we seem to know everything that's happened Overstatement.

Guest Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 This is why you'll never be able to work for GDCNN. I actually think my lack of reliance on facts qualifies me much better than silly journalistic integrity

The track listing is: Side A: She / Waiting / We Are The Champions / Blitzkrieg Bop / Holidays In The Sun / I Fought The Law / Outsider / Don't Wanna Know If You're Lonely Side B: Paper Lanterns / Welcome To Paradise / Chump / Longview / Burnout I imagine it's pretty rare. Whether it's any good or not is another matter.

Spike Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Um....that $300 price tag lol. For a bootleg haha. I can't blame them for trying their luck. It's a rare item and Green Day completists are insane. I can see Tman selling his Lego for it as we speak.
Certified Nimrod Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 That was a bootleg released in Sweden in 2007. Do you know where/when it was recorded?
Spike Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Do you know where/when it was recorded? It's just a selection of live tracks from 1994-2005 as far as I'm aware. I have no idea where any specific tracks are from, unfortunately.

I can see Tman selling his Lego for it as we speak. No, I've seen it a few times before. I wouldn't pay more than $25 for it, and I would never sell my legos for any Green Day.
