    Does anyone else think the new Green Day song sounds like Last Exit in the beginning (mainly drums)? Sorry if a million people have already said this.

    Edit: I was thinking Last Exit, but put Not For You

    They've officially played "Know Your Enemy" 1700 times (slight exaggeration) on tv. It's time to move on to another song.

    If I was going to put those drums towards any PJ song, it would be Last Exit ... but, that's about all that sounds like anything Pearl Jam

    that song is bad. really bad.

    I saw them do it on some late night show (Colbert maybe?) Just boring as all get out. It's weak, even for them.

    you know what i dont get... what incentive is there for the other guitarist that does all the real work but isnt actually in the band??? like green days songs are really that hard to play and sing at the same time? :roll:

    its the lamest thing ive ever seen

    great episode though other than them... the rodeo road sketch was hilarious
    miss yesterdays episode, but didnt sense any of the nervousness in conan i had heard about here

    His opening was much better tonight and yes the Rodeo Rd sketch was good. I'm debating about staying up to see Green Day. Now after reading this thread, I think I'll just go to sleep after I finish the wine I'm drinking.

    Just like Nirvana and Pat Smear. Green Day also had a backup singer standing almost off stage. :roll:

    What incentive is there for him? How about, he gets to tour with one of the biggest bands in the world and make enough money to live comfortably the rest of his life. Is that enough incentive?

    A kid i went to high school with plays bass for the f'n Jonas brothers. He's not complaining. He actually co wrote a few songs. While that sound completely blah, he now owns a portion of some of their songs. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$

    The shame of it is, the rest of that album is incredible, but people who would probably like the album won't bother because of this single.

    And the people who like the single will buy the album and hate it...

    The other guitarist probably makes around $10,000 per week, and gets to travel the world in style.

    im sure the whole band is forced to wear promise rings :lol:

    and as far as the other green day guitarist... the incentive is pretty obvious (bad choice of words in my last post)... just odd that they dont include him as an official part of the band... its not like boom or something... he does a majority of the work

    plus it has more to do with me thinking billy joe is a talentless prick 8-)
