Green Day Twitter Q&A with @iheartradio

[DanPak]

Christ I just read through their answers. That was so pathetic, they hardly answered anything! All we know now is that they like the album, they like the song Still Breathing, and will be doing a UK tour.

[DeJennsitized]

To be fair, any interesting answers they had probably wouldn't have seemed that interesting to the more casual fan or follower of that account. And maybe good questions got lost amongst a bunch of crap. Plus they're clearly novices at this kinda thing as well

You missed a huge part. Bang bang music video

Yeah I guess, but we all knew that was coming sooner or later anyway, and I'm sure Billie hinted at it being made my Tim Armstrong on instagram earlier

[LisaBJA]

im excited for the music video....its so cool that it is directed by tim armstrong

 

oh and we might expect a world tour!!!

[Paola17]

Still don't know what to make  about the tweet regarding the us tour question.

Do we take the yes as a confirmation and ignore the documentary promo, or ignore it all together?

Has a general consensus been decided?

[Sarcasm]

I just hope it won't be another video like the 21stCBD video. It has some cool parts, but at 1 point, there is a slow zoom-out of Billie's face. In this zoom, Mike and Tre sort of just slides in from the sides, then the zoom reverses and they're slidin' on out of there again so Billie's massive face is in the center again with that dumb blond spot in his hair. 

 

That wasn't Armstrong though it was a Webb video. 

[Jaimi­stico Valenzuela]

sorry but i need to do this

my question was the last one

Actually I'm pretty sure most people figured the lyric video was the only video for Bang Bang. I wasn't expecting an actual music video let alone one being directed by Tim Armstrong

That was one of their best videos ever. And do not insult the blond spot things on his hair

I'm insulting one of the shots in the video because it looks hilarious, I said I thought it had some cool parts

[stories and songs]

My understanding of these things based on Twitter Q&As that have been videoed with actors/musicians is that the group is set up with one laptop in a studio and sit down to type out the questions. So it's unlikely they were just winging it on their phones separately. That's probably part of why it went rather slow.

[Jirachi]

Wouldnt it have been better if they looked through the twitter questions, wrote them down, and answered them in a 10-15 minute youtube or facebook or twitter video instead or something? No character limit, plus iots be faster with more questions.

[armatage]

We can talk all we want about what could have been but it didn't happen. And I don't think there's gonna be another Q&A soon on twitter where they'll do anything differently. If there is going to be another q&a, which would be cool

I liked the answer about how they love fan art. They literally are our dads   putting our art on their refrigerators

You hear obviously all the time that artist really appreciate their fans but I always felt like Green Day have taken it to the next level, they're so grateful and it makes me love them more than I already do.

It's comforting to know that in some way, you are of value to them.

I thought the Q&A session was fun.  I didn't really expect any huge insights, but it was fun just to interact with them.  At least I know what to make Billie for breakfast now.

I think Billie deleted the video of Adrienne dancing to rap music, but I remember a plate of food behind him and it may have been pancakes. Yes, I'm that weird.

 

edit: it was either pancakes or possibly grapefruit halves... 🤔

How do you mistake pancakes for grapefruit halves?  They don't exactly look alike
