To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Dookie, this weeks download of the week featured 3 different Dookie related downloads.

Dookie Demos, Re-recordings, & Unreleased songs: 18 Tracks - 46mb MP3
The first download is a selection of Dookie demos taken from 3 different demo tapes from back in 1993. It also includes the re-recording of "409 In Your Coffeemaker" and the original recording of "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)" both from the Dookie Sessions.

Dookie live at Reading Festival: 14 Tracks - 75mb MP3
Our next download is Dookie performed in it's entirety (minus "All By Myself") at Reading Festival back in 2013. This soundboard recording also included a few exerts from other songs but were cut out to make the full album run in full without any interruptions.

Jaded In Chicago: 16 Tracks - 122mb MP3
Our final download is the second most famous show from the Dookie tour, right after Woodstock. The show was recorded at Aragon Ballroom in Chicago on November 18th, 1994 and is commonly known as "Jaded In Chicago" or "Spitting". Also included in this download in "Geek Stink Breath" from the soundcheck but not played during the show.

Wasn't Good Riddance from the Insomniac sessions?

I think Good Riddance actually dates back to the Kerplunk days. At least that's what I've always heard lol. Just like Longview was around about 2 years before Dookie actually came out. Too bad that taper never shared his Cattle Club video :/. It'd be cool to have the first gig of the Dookie tour.

Yeah, it was recorded during Insomniac, not Dookie. No idea why Liam put that in there. He's high on meds :lol:

It seems plausible it was actually recorded during the Dookie sessions because they talk about wanting to put it on Dookie but Rob didn't want them. They just didn't release it till the Insomnia era.

I think the live tracks from the singles are uncensored

Considering they waited 3 albums to release Good Riddance, I wonder what songs Green Day has in storage that they are waiting to use.

BUT, those tracks were taken from Jannus Landing in Florida 1994. BTW, almost all of the tracks from that concert were released for EP and singles.

The When I Come Around singles had Chicago tracks, Coming Clean and 2000 LYA are two I can name off the top of my head

Rob didn't want it on Dookie, an it obviously had NO place on Insomniac, so they put it out as a b-side after two albums, and then decided to re-record it for Nimrod. It's understandable why they waited so long though. Can't wait to someday hear Wonderful, sounds like that was another song that is just waiting for an album where it will fit.

But has that song been mentioned by the band?

Only person I've seen mentioned it was Butch and Butch has a history of naming songs that do not exsist...

They played it at a soundcheck 2009-07-22 Mellon Arena, Pittsburgh, PA, along with Drama Queen and others.

Idk. Someone post the Butch quote please. Pretty sure there's a thread about the song somewhere

Oh, you're right. I forgot that single. The songs were Coming Clean and She (Billie's "high speech" was cut though) btw. Did you say Green Day played "wonderful" in a soundcheck, really??? Is there any video/audio of it???
