UNICORN VOMIT Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 I agree the whole setlist/concert needs a revamp. It was pretty disappointing that australia scored them last on tour - half of the lights in the green day sign weren't even working - thought that was a bit lame as they were the headliners. Everything else has been said.
AlissaGoesRAWR Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 Oh we agree, it has to have the black roots showing. Yes that picture is adorable He's like "Share a drink with me?" and I'm like "Oh, I thought you'd NEVER ask!" [swoon]
Sofouska Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 All they have to do is make a good album. The rest will follow.
UNICORN VOMIT Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Looked especially good with a rip in the chest Also Tre's downward arrow shirts were awesome That's how his hair looked when I ruffled it. Yes yes yes to Reverend Strychnine Twitch blond The brixton ripped shirt was the cause of my first fangirl confession
Hero_Of_The_Hour Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 It is a good indication of all that is wrong with Green Day's fanbase that the suggestion of hair styles, clothing and looks in general are considered important factors in revamping their tours and career in general. What made American Idiot era fucking great? It wasn't Billie's glossy locks and the bands uniform look it was a killer album and thus amazing setlist even if it was repetitive. What made the last tour and album suck? The music and frankly lack of tour and enthusiasm or feeling of "going through the motions" from the band when they did tour. Billie told Rolling Stone he has had a drug problem for 17 (i think) years and always drank or something before shows...therefore logically we have never seen him "sober" until the last few but not every show years ago was equal/as good as say Dookie era or AI (consider when they cancelled the Insomniac tour). Plus not to start anything but we NEVER know when he is actually using/drinking and it is none of our damn business anyway so for all we know he still could be. My whole point is there is imo one factor to a good tour or the band revamping their career...good fucking music. Perhaps they should throw their smart phones away and lock themselves in the studio for weeks like old times and create a monster. No stupidity. No distractions. Just great music. It's time.
Hermione Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 I don't see where the impression that they have a lack of enthusiasm comes from to be honest, they've remained as enthusiastic on stage and when talking about the band in interviews as ever as far as I can see. Tour threads weren't exactly full of people complaining or calling the band unenthusiastic, seems to only be more recently that idea's come up. The brixton ripped shirt was the cause of my first fangirl confessionWas quite a nice surprise for him to turn up on stage looking like he was entering a wet t shirt contest
Chin for a Day Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 The brixton ripped shirt was the cause of my first fangirl confession It took you that long to fangirl. You disappoint me. I saw the longview video 5 times before I realized there were words.

I've never thought that and I can't think of anything it could come from. I think people are perhaps just biased towards the performances because they don't like the new music, which seems to happen after every album.

Connor Finlayson Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 This is the dumbest thread I've ever seen. There is no difference between the recent performances and the ones from before. And the clothes Billie wears don't not mean anything. Quit over-analyzing everything. Jesus.

Alan86 Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Good Music and meaningful lyrics. The trilogy was 3 albums of below average lyrics.

Tubbie Head Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Billie needs to stop buggering around with his hair. Short and black looks great, anything else is just bloody stupid.
Disappearing-Shawn Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Personally, I feel like Billie's voice has deteriorated between 21CB tour and the 99 tour... And the switch in amps? I feel like it lost the depth and alertness they once has in the guitar department.

I feel like it lost the depth and alertness they once has in the guitar department. Nothing wrong with trying clean tones problem is they didn't use them on the right songs

DoodleBob Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 I just think they need to find a nice sound. While a simple sound worked for them in the 90s, a lot has changed since then (most notably Billie's voice). I think the "wall of sound" that they used for American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown really suits them best now. If they get back to that I believe It'd help them a lot. Good Music and meaningful lyrics. The trilogy was 3 albums of below average lyrics. I second your statement about lyrics.

GugsGreenDay Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 I agree with every word you said !! For me the best tour was the 21CB
Mykee Mexx Posted March 23, 2015 Posted March 23, 2015 Didnt you know it is all based around billie's clothes & hair colour. That´s what this band is about, isn´t it? Music´s just a filler.
