Todd Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 We all know Billie messes up lyrics a lot, but what about when Green Day performs their usual hits? Do they play them perfectly every night? I thought this could be a great discussion. Who messes up the most? Which member doesn't mess up? Etc.
Thisnamehasnoreason Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCpPRG_pc34 missed his que
Oxymore Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 I find it funny. It makes it not too perfect and I like it. And I like because I'm sure I know the lyrics better than Billie
Heather. Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 I'm sure they all make plenty of mistakes but the vast majority of fuckups are not noticeable to most people and don't affect the success of the song. Sometimes I'll notice either Jason or Billie messing up on solos or coming in late. Or Billie messes up when he's "improvising" on solos but then I guess it doesn't matter because it wasn't originally part of the song.
Thisnamehasnoreason Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 I like it when they improve city names and stuff like that
Spike Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 Mike and Tre are incredibly tight, they very rarely mess up. The Jasons are incredibly reliable too. The same was true of Billie until relatively recently, but at Reading he messed up so many times I lost count. Most notably in Jesus Of Suburbia.

I wonder what happened.And I remember seeing a video of him performing "Castaway" and messing up and laughing about it.
Spike Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 Did he fuck up the lyrics, or his guitar playing? I wonder what happened. Guitar playing on JOS, he missed his cue at some point. He fucked up the timing of the lyrics on Having A Blast as well.
BCap Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 Guitar playing on JOS, he missed his cue at some point. He fucked up the timing of the lyrics on Having A Blast as well. How DARE he mess up on a NINE-MINUTE song? XD

Asa. Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 Somebody (probably Billie) fucks up on guitar in the BIAB version of Basket Case at about 1:55 in
ThranaM Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 Not to mention the beginning of Waiting live from Reading 2013.
Jon Benjamin Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 At the Dreamforce show, he messed up the beginning of 99 Revolutions, beginning of Angel Blue, and one of the "I leave behind this hurricane of fucking lies" parts got butchered on guitar.
DookieLukie Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCpPRG_pc34 missed his que Seems like he forgot the lyrics, not missed his cue.
BucksCoEric Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 When they played in philadelphia last april billie forgot the lyrics of the first verse to holiday
Sanity Loan Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 In Awesome As Fuck when playing "When I Come Around," either Billie or Jason mess-up during the second verse because the guitar track gets summed to mono for a few seconds, then back to stereo. Nice bit of editing there

Nice bit of editing there That's quite a weird one, given that they could have used the recording from any other show of the tour.
Todd Posted March 8, 2014 Author Posted March 8, 2014 Did Mike hit a wrong note in the intro to Longview on BIAB? I was listening to a live Longview this morning and noticed something sounded wrong on it, but not sure what show it was.
Certified Nimrod Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 Jason White messes up from time to time. He messed up on the Holiday intro on Good Morning America 2012 and the Let Yourself Go solo at Reading 2013. When they played in philadelphia last april billie forgot the lyrics of the first verse to holiday That was hilarious.
georgielikesgreenday Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 Does it make a difference if they mess up or not? Wouldn't the performance still be awesome anyway?
Certified Nimrod Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 Does it make a difference if they mess up or not? Wouldn't the performance still be awesome anyway? No one was complaining. It's just interesting to hear/see these things.
georgielikesgreenday Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 No one was complaining. It's just interesting to hear/see these things. I know, I was just seriously asking if it really sounds as if it makes a difference.
