Greenday tonight
- Thread starter Cheech
- Start date
I really like their sound and have 2 CD's. From what I've heard you might not want to sit in the first few rows!! 
I've taken to bringing ear protection if I know I have to be very close to speakers that will have the volume turned up. I still can hear the music, and I get to keep my hearing. best of both worlds
Ear protection
Good idea!
When I was in college, one of the non-trad students had been a roadie for Motley Crue. He said at one concert they spied a really drunk girl with this huge grin on her face standing right by the huge speakers (think he said they were 8' tall or so). Blood was trickling out of her ear.
Needless to say, they got her out of there fast!

What an AWESOME Concert... New Found Glory opened up, and I must say, they sucked. . . Greenday really had the fans going.. They have such an original sound, it was really cool. At one point they got people from the crowd... They brought up a bassist, a guitarist, and a drummer, and made them play for a bit, while the singer sang. It was a fairly simple riff, but it was cool . . He (the singer) actually gave the kid his guitar...
They REALLY got the crowd into it...
One thing though, for all you americans, I'm pretty sure that the band didn't vote for Bush this election. Might have been the "F*%k George Bush" they were chanting at the opening of the concert. Later they went on to say that their album is NOT anti American, but it IS anti war.
Anyway, if you guys get the chance, you should definately check them out!

Sounds like a great show. Unfortuneately another band that needs to shut up and sing. 
I guess if I only listened to bands that I agreed with politically, I'd be limited to Ted Nugent

I'm going to see Velvet Revolver again tonight in Birmingham! My camera phone got some rain on it or something so I wont be able to take anymore pics, which sucks.
I used to listen to Green Day when they were first getting started but I kinda got lost interest a few years after they became fairly popular. I can still get into a few of their older songs. I hate it when bands get all political like that. Who cares, just play some f'in music! After all, your paying them to play not to tell your their political stances.
