Green Day are incredible live, whatever they play. Their older stuff is obviously better, a return to their roots would be perfect.

They say 'AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY OOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHH' too much though.

Those of you who've seen them live, did they do that gimmick where they take people out of the crowd and get them onstage playing their instruments? Or the guitar playing with teeth?

When I saw them at '04, I thought that was awesome but I was only a young 'un then, and come to think of it I'd find it a bit tedious this time around.

at wembley they took a kid out of the crowd to sing a song, and at the o2 arena they took a kid out to basically fall to the ground when an explosion went off...

doubt they could do it at a fest though, then again who knows as i'm sure at soni last year sum41 got a stage full of people :lol:

Neil, I only asked for Blur to be down graded to a R from SR but to have them completly gone from the rumours page is even better-nice work fella! Its going to be a very (Green) day today I feel :)

I'm still strongly siding with the info I've had about no R/L and an arena tour instead in the autumn, but as I've said I have stuff from what should be decent sources which contradict that.

Anyway, It's looking very likely that it'll get cleared up today either way when the yanks wake up. My source there seems confident he'll be able to let me know this morning (his morning).

When I saw them sub at Reading 01 they got a couple of people out of the crowd to play.

To be honest it really pissed me off. In a 3 hour set at Wembley it's fair enough but in a 1 hour set it wasted about 15 minutes. They were absolutely excellent otherwise though.

    • I agree that we’ll never really know up until the concert happens (and even then we still may not know) but I think promoters are having to come up with new tactics to combat ‘blue dot fever’ (already hating that phrase!) and trying to imply that concerts are selling better than they actually are / available tickets are in short supply is definitely one of them.    To add though, it is quite common at the O2 Arena for the rear blocks to not go on sale (and then remain closed for the concert and covered over to hide the empty seats). And equally common for standing to sell out first, then side/lower tier seating next and rear/upper tier seating last.    Jungle’s two concerts at the O2 are a good comparison for this - for their 1st (announced) date, all blocks are on sale and seats in all sections remain unsold, whereas for their 2nd date, the rear blocks are greyed out (more so than for Muse) and equally lots of seats remain unsold in the blue blocks. Standing for both concerts are showing as sold out.
    • MGK can and should headline. I was at one of his shows earlier in the year as a very casual fan, and there were a lot of alt people there. The show was actually class and he completely won me over. Anyone who opposes him headlining is just a gatekeeper imo, we need to move with the times.
    • Ultimately Glasto is just part of the festival circuit, however special we may think it is. The vast majority of its headliners have done many others
    • From Magyar’s FB:   ”Our country's energy and water supply is stable. As of today, voluntary consumption reduction is no longer necessary. The turbine at the Paks power plant is generating stably. Thanks to precipitation in Austria, the water level of the Danube will temporarily rise by 20–30 centimeters. Thank you, Hungary, for the unprecedented national unity shown in recent days! We have much to be proud of, and much to carry forward into the period ahead.”
    • I hope it stays under £400.  A lot of us aren't flush with cash.  Charities are great but do they need £1 mil (I jest)
