Green Day Band • Page 121

I'd love a Dookie / American Idiot tour where they play both albums in full and then have an epic encore of other hits and deep cuts for the fans. A guy can dream lol

 

the encore will just be "King for a Day/Shout" for 20 minutes

 

Dookie and ai is like 90 minutes total between the 2

 

this demo is crazy!

 

There's been no mention of it being remastered. Everything just says "original album" which makes me think it hasn't been touched up at all.

 

love this b-side off the AI single!

 

Fuck lol

 

can't believe they're still doing that. Are they not tired of it??

 

I'd order it AI first then Dookie then maybe 2-3 goodies. AI works as an intro and then Dookie is definitely the more fun/snappy second half.

 

this and "When I Come Around"


wow!

 

Stoked for the re-recorded Christie Rd. That’s been a holy grail of mine for a looooong time.

 

maybe its just me but im so worn out on album play tours. for how expensive a concert going experience is nowadays, i want to hear a wide range of the catalog, not spend an hour devoted to an entire album. feel like there are more creative and fun ways to commemorate an anniversary? idk

 

I’m worn out when bands constantly do it for the same albums over and over. However Green Day is so big, they have been stuck playing basically the same set for 10+ years.

 

Demos are cool, can't justify the price of the vinyl box set when I already own Dookie and Woodstock '94

 

I’m in the exact same boat but I’m finding myself wavering back and forth

 

Seriously I was just about to say the same thing. So bad. I love a Green Day show but "SHOUT" and all the gimmicky shit they do is so lame.

"Say heyyyyy-ohhhhh"

OOOH time to spray the crowd with water guns!!

Kill me

 

I heard Governator the other day for the first time lol. Sounded like it should've been on the Network album

 

If Billie stopped doing the Hey-o stuff, they could easily fit in 5-7 more songs lol

 

not wrong

 

That's why I have a goal to someday make it to one of their club shows where they just play a shit ton of deep cuts

 

BJ said a while back that the call and response stuff is to give time for the audience - which was starting to include much younger kids - to cool down and catch a breath.

How much of that is the case vs. how much he wants to be pop punk Freddy Mercury, who knows.

 

The audience? Probably more likely the band...

 

That too (although he said this probably 20 years ago), but I edited the post to include the part about kids of fans starting to come.

 

Pretty much why i've not seen them in 18 years despite listening to them regularly. Saying that I'd probably go next time in the UK.

 

that box set is a must have
