That's debatable. 

8.35 he is so confused - snooze time.

Singing the actual song is enough Shenanigans.

Ehh, I always go in the pit and everyone sings and dances there

Even now, years after it's release, I still fucking love Nightlife. I thought maybe I'd grow & realise how 'awful' it is, as everyone says, but nope. Love it. Fab song.

I think you are my favourite newcomer

 That's always nice to here. I remember sitting there, learning all the words just in case Billie decided to sing it live & I'd magically find my way on stage. Good times, man.

HA, I've done the same thing, I love that song!

Wouldn't it be the third time winning best newcomer for you?

Oh good god THANKS TOM the secret is out. Y'know, to anyone who didn't already fuckin know

And what a deep and confusing mystery it was.

So about those unpopular opinions... 

[The Grohl]

Being to a club show where they had no pyro, I must say I didn't miss it. The first time I saw them it was super cool, but I can understand how it starts to get dull and repetitive after a while.

[Hermione]

I didn't think they used pyro that much. I remember it was used a lot and really well during Revolution Radio (made a song that's meh to me a spectacular live experience), but I can't even remember when else it was used. But then my face is always covered in sweat and make up wrecked with or without it haha.

[Chin for a Day]

I love the pyro, it makes the concert that much more fun.  I did think it was really close to Tre and was wondering why his ass wasn't getting burnt.  

[BilIie Joe Armstrong]

I was cold as fuck and the pyro warmed up the place a bit every time it went off so yeah I absolutely loved it 

[MillenniumFan]

Well, objectively speaking, they didn't even use that much pyro (I think less than on the AI and of course the 21st BD tour) I just think a lot of it was concentrated in Revolution Radio, which made it all the more noticeable. 

Personally, I liked the pyro, but I would have liked to have seen slightly more variety. 

Also, it was a bit too much for me during RevRad, because: 

1. I was very close to the stage (and Billie), so the heat acted almost as a slap in the face and was borderline unbearable during that song.

2. I can't speak for more calmer / smaller pits (such as in the U.S for example), but the crowd at my gig was mental and in a matter of minutes, it became very hot and the flames just added to that. 

I'm partly to blame for the second thing, as I didn't drink enough water before the show and I also didn't have a water bottle on me, so I was very hydrated. 

Still, I'm really looking forward to the pyro (fireworks?) on display at the outdoors gigs (such as the festival, I'm going to). And I also hope they play Brain Stew + Flames, because that's awesome! 

[Libertine Angel]

The pyro is pretty cool when done well but not at all necessary for me, I didn't miss it at Brixton at all, just an occasional added bonus.

I was seriously dehydrated, exhausted and being proper crushed on barrier so maybe it was just a bad concoction of things. Plus, my makeup is important to me & the idea of it melting off does make me a bit annoyed after how much time, effort & money goes into it 

I don't really wear makeup, but I know that pain. For The Cure show I put on eyeliner. Problem was it was super hot that day and the venue decided we didn't need A/C. So I looked like a fright by the end of the night!

[BilIie Joe Armstrong]

What's the point of wearing make-up to a Green Day show when Billie's going to wash if down from your face with the water hose.

Duck & hide!  Fuckin hate that stupid hose. Thankfully I've never been caught with it, *knock on wood* I don't any time soon either!

Personally I don't wear makeup but I'm sorry for everyone who does

Another reason you are a younger me.  I don't either, well I will on special occasions, but as a general rule, I just don't have the time.  

[solongfromthestars]

Billie and his bloody hose. I don't want to get soaked after I've been in the rain/freezing in line all day/night

Exactly, there's no way I have enough time for it in the mornings and my hands tend to shake after I wake up so that's another reason why I gave up

It will be my special day tomorrow, though - they'll photograph us for a yearbook

It's literally my job to wear makeup & learn all the latest trends regarding it, so I'm sucked so far down into that wormhole I can't escape  

That's a good job

But the way the little shit smiles while he pours water all over you

Never mind the hose, I'm still waiting for someone to get knocked out by that damn tshirt cannon
