Green Day live CD/DVD details, MTV feature

Posted by aubin on Friday, September 23, 2005 at 10:24 PM (EDT)

Some details have been revealed about Bullet in a Bible, the upcoming live DVD from Green Day. The disc itself was announced some time ago, and is scheduled for a November 15th release on CD/DVD.

The disc, which was directed by Samuel Bayer, the same director responsible for the videos taken from the multi-platinum American Idiot. It documents two of the biggest shows in the band's career, both at the Milton Keynes National Bowl in front of 130,000 people in June of this year.

Among the contents of the DVD are 100 minutes of performances, behind-the-scenes footage, interviews with band members as well as footage of fans. The DVD follows the band's successful album, which has won numerous awards including a Grammy for Best Rock Album and seven MTV Video Music Award nominations.

MTV recently aired a piece on the DVD and you can check it out in both Windows Media and Quick Time formats.

The band is currently in the last few days of their US tour with Jimmy Eat World.

who cares what most people on this site think. if you like it you like it. hopefully this will have lots of older stuff on it, i might get it then. and it comes out on my birthday, nice touch.

It comes out on my birthday, also! Happy Birthday! - Chris Kretzer

AlmostPunkEnough (September 23, 2005)

nice dude, happy birthday to us. i'll be unconcious most of that day, so may as well get it in now. if anyone wants to get me anything, i've always wanted a bottle of Blue Label... and i kinda need a new car.

ILOVESCOTT (September 24, 2005)

if you want blue label, steal it.

AlmostPunkEnough (September 24, 2005)

i could never steal from Johnie Walker, he's brought me so much happiness and great times. $200 is a tad expensive though. tonight i'll be drinking vodka in a plastic bottle. it's only a slight step down.

ILOVESCOTT (September 24, 2005)

who the hell has blue label for $200? besides, your not punk if you dont steal!!!

I guess I'm not embarrassed. I guess I'm just fearful of the backlash from everyone else.

Someone (September 23, 2005)

Ha.... nice touch. yayforapathy

Someone (September 24, 2005)

Presuming people stuff me in a garbage can, they liked Dookie and Nimrod too. It's not like this is their breakout album. It's just musically half as interesting as anything they've done before.

Someone (September 24, 2005)

It's not interesting??? There's 2 nine-minute songs, and the whole album (supposedly) tells a story. If its not interesting, your just not listening closely enough

Someone (September 24, 2005)

hence the musically part. I don't really give a shit about lyrics. This whole concept album stuff is excuse to divert attention from the fact that Green Day just can't write a melody like they could when they made Nimrod. And if a 9 minute song is something impressive, you need to branch out a little more

Someone (September 24, 2005)

I your looking for catchy, melodic songs, listen to Dookie (not Nimrod (even though Nimrod is good too)). That album is the epitomy of catchy, melodic, pop-punk. I'm sure if Green Day wanted to write songs like that they can (listen to St. Jimmy and American Idiot), but they realized, unlike other bands (ie: pennywise, offspring), that there is no point in making the same album over and over again. Also, if you don't give a shit about lyrics your an idiot.

Someone (September 24, 2005)

your an idiot. statement of a lifetime, eh buddy? -redpatch

Someone (September 24, 2005)

I've listened to Dookie and I love it, I mentioned Nimrod because it's their last good album. Nice one with the idiot comment though. I promise you I have better taste in music than you

Someone (September 24, 2005)

This guy gets off on the fact that he listens to Coheed and Cambria, Bright Eyes, etc. Hey ASSHOLE (is that better than idiot?), if you don't give a shit about lyrics, you're overlooking a huge part of punk rock. P.S. if you go on to say "bright eyes has awesome lyrics", i agree, but seeing how you don't give a shit about lyrics, you just listen to their catchy tunes.

ILOVESCOTT (September 24, 2005)

the offspring have never made the same album twice.

Someone (September 24, 2005)

As an outside observer, I find it hilarious that someone who writes "I don't really give a shit about lyrics" can go on to write "you need to branch out a little more".

Someone (September 24, 2005)

Tommy by the Who tells a way better story and has better music Talk about that instead

Someone (September 24, 2005)

quite true, but the AI idiot story, however loose it is is still pretty good. AI is a much more cohesive (not necessarily better) than something like Ziggy stardust

Someone (September 24, 2005)

I hate how people call AI a "punk opera" Isn't punk music supposed to just be basic simple three chord rock music? "Punk Opera" sounds like an oxymoron

Someone (September 24, 2005)

isn't punk also supposed to be about shattering preconceptions?

CallingLondon (September 23, 2005)

i don't.

Someone (September 24, 2005)

Someone (September 24, 2005)

This is a fucking stellar album! Fuck you Mr. scenester! I take away 5,000 of your punk points! You are now a lowly wallflower.

Someone (September 24, 2005)

DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD, NOFX already did the same album, it's called the decline, and it's only one 18minute song. way more punk than a 'concept' album about billy joe's hobag childhood. FUCKTOTS.

Someone (September 25, 2005)

i dont see how u can call it shitty, this album is amazing! i cant wait to hear what they are going to produce next! (like a true fan would!)

Someone (October 6, 2005)

FU** YOU!!

Someone (September 23, 2005)

bullet in a bible? wow thats sooooo controversial dude!

Someone (September 23, 2005)

Everyone who hates Green Day and calls them sellouts are idiots. Yeah, they signed to a major but the music is fucking good. Plus, with American Idiot, they're more political than many underground punk bands (ie:Guttermouth, Lars Frederikson and the Bastards, etc.). So if you say their music sucks fuck you, you know you like it (and if you don't your not a punk (punk in the true sense of the word (Ramones, Sex Pistols, Buzzcocks, Clash, bands who defined the word punk(not hardcore/goth/emo/thrash(even though hardcore is good too.)))))

CallingLondon (September 23, 2005)

eh, i don't think anyone claims the sellout crap with green day anymore. i think they've proved that they've taken all the right steps in their carreer, and they've never really compromised any of their values. pop-punk was not popular in the mainstream, yet they won over tons of people. they could have easily crashed and burned in the mainstream, but they didn't. they were meant to be on a major.

Someone (September 23, 2005)

If only everyone thought that way

Someone (September 24, 2005)

Someone (September 23, 2005)

I still find this band intresting. the only thing that pisses me off is the fact that they write political songs that the majority of their audience don't have the capacity to comprehend. Take that song with the lyrics "On holiday"(I don't know the name of the song, but that's not the point.). This song has become an anthem for 13 year old girls that know nothing about the world. MTV cherrishes the song, when a lot of the new album actually attacks mainstream society, albeit not in a huge since. I'm probablly bitching over nothing, but I won't stop and you can't make me. yayforapathy

I'm not stopping you...but I love GD always have always will...when I was like 14 I got Op Ivy's cd and thought it was amazing. I would just rock out all day. It wasn't until a few years ago (like 18) when I realized how political it was and I appreciated it so much more. That's the power of Political music. Noam Chomsky can't get 14 year olds to pump their hands...but Green Day can and years later the 14 year olds will appreciate that. "Holiday" is a good hand pumper song...and a good political song....either way it's a great song.

Someone (September 24, 2005)

I guess so, but the majority of mainstream society could care less either way and that's my point. They listen to what MTV says, and they believe what MTV tells them to believe. Not my idea of utopia. But I reapect Green Day nonetheless. yayforapathy

I remember way back in the day (like 96 or 97), just when the internet was starting to really take off, Green Day was really pissed about fan websites and ordering them down -- they HATED them -- and Billie Joe said (to USA Today) that "Green Day is not computer friendly." I

I wouldn't call them sellouts, because they've spent most of their time in the pop music spotlight. But seriously, it's not fun to listen to. Throw Nimrod in your CD player. This is how Green Day should sound. Their new Hives plus the color Red outfit is stupid. One of the things I always liked about Green Day was that they weren't pushing some sort of image. Forget that. Oh man, it's political! What have you learned from this album? What sort of awareness have you gained? Any statistics? Do you know about some emerging sistuation in a foreign country? Has it inspired you to fundraise or protest? Sleater-Kinney did their political album better AND managed to still sound good (though I still think the Woods is a letdown). Fuck, Anti-flag at least sounds good when trying to convey their messages. But really, I don't give a fuck. I'll get my world information from...um... the new

Respect for the two or three people on here that say FUCK Green Day, because really, FUCK Green Day! Remember back in the early 90's when alternative was all the rage? Yeah, Green Day was a part of that. They weren't marketed as a punk band back then but as soon as 'punk' became extremely marketable, Green Day became the 'punk' band for the masses. You know what that is? I'll answer it for you... That's Crap! Oh well, this is a waste of my fucking time...

What do you mean they weren't "marketed as a punk band"? The reason punk became "extremely marketable" was because Green Day was so popular. Also, alternative is a broad term that (in the 90's) grouped punk, grunge, and even metal. So FUCK YOU!!!! oi!oi!oi!

Someone (September 24, 2005)

No, it's not backward. I was really shocked at how great American Idiot was after Warning. There aren't many bands that claim to have 2 super smash recordings like GD did w/Dookie & American Idiot. I know the singles from American Idiot are getting way overplayed on the radio & video channels, but I just listen to my iPod so I only play songs when I want to hear them & I think American Idiot is a stellar fucking album, especially "Letterbomb" (love that song!)

I thought that last live ep that they put out was pretty good.

Question for people who liked Green Day in 1994 do you seriously think this american idiot is better than dookie or insomniac? I am sick of all the praise it gets but I am assuming most of these people just got into Green Day from this one cd so that is why they like it soo much. Also do you think this will sell more copies than Dookie?

CallingLondon (September 24, 2005)

i'm 23. dookie was the first cd i ever bought, and it was in 1994. American Idiot is the shit. I'm not sure if it's better than dookie but i'd say it's on par, even if it's just for the two 9 minute tracks, which is just impressive song writing. i really enjoy the new album still.

lyric13 (September 25, 2005)

It is impossible to compare the two, I think. They have there own unique sound but Billie Joe's vocals have gotton much better with American idiot, more daring. I also have to say that Dookie sold more copies in it's time frame than American Idiot due to all the illegal downloading now that wasn't much there when Dookie arrived. So pretty much they are getting ripped off for American Idiot, but have a way bigger fan-base now than ever. American Idiot stands in class all on it's own,.... but then again, so does Dookie. I am sorry you're sick of the praise it is recieving, I am sooo happy for them, they totally deserve it. All 16 years of it.

Sure from the outside it looks glamorous, think of all the hard work that actually goes into what they do. And they are making a ton of people happy. When days you feel like you have had enough or that no one cares, and you can turn to a band like green day to make it all go away, then so fucking be it !! finally, after 16 years they are getting the recognition they earned. Mainstream or whatever, i am glad they are here. Way to go green day! you are jealous, since when do you people write the rules to music industry? Freedom, power, and the freakin ability to make it, i don't see you rockin'. Or makin the big-bucks either... So shut the hell up. Congrats to green day.

You suck.

Someone (September 25, 2005)

well personally i only recently got into Green Day but like the old stuff a lot as well as the new album.... if some of you people think Green Day sucks then don't post here! go fuck yourself, cause i'm gonna praise green Day for this... although the "Bullet in a Bible" may come out crappy but that depends on the people making it..... but green day is just standing up for what they believe in, aka telling how stupid bush is and people labeled them as punk..... its labels in this world that screw up everything and fuck all those kids labeled nerds and such as schools or "crazy people" who need help too........ so just don't say anything if you think GD sucks or whatever.... me personally love there music. but that's just my opioions.

Way to go. That is soo true, do these jealous people really have nothing better to than to trash green day? Ya know what i say? Go and get a life, stop trying to piss us off. We don't give a shit what you say, nevertheless find it extemely annoying. Especially when music is a matter of opinion, so i guess thats it. You have your opinion (green day haters) we have ours--- ours is better, green day will never suck they are too talented and driven. Oh yeah another message to green day haters-- if ya can't say anything nice.......

i posted a comment eariler on here all the fucking people who don't like green day cause they are now "punk" should read this article! http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews/entertainment/music/12 744056.htm?source=rss&channel=mercurynews_performing_arts here 's some parts so you don't have to get your lazy *** to push a couple buttons... Maybe the most shocking thing was this onetime hard-core trio's leanings toward classic rock. There was a great moment, when Armstrong got down on the ground during the 1962 Isley Brothers standard, ``Shout'': In the middle of the song, lying on his stomach and then his back, Armstrong and the band changed their tune and gave a passionate and well-sung take on Ben E. King's ``Stand by Me'' before s

Let's see... first off, I am a Green Day fan. I am a recent listener, but have since gone back to the Kerplunk! days, and like all those songs too. What it all comes down to, is whether you like the music, or you don't. Seriously, I mean, a certain band is not going to define whether or not you are "punk". There are so many different interpretations out there, I don't think there is a set standard, because, if you'd like to admit it or not, by saying "listening to so and so makes you a punk" puts a standard to it. (categorizing things... shudder) Listen or not... who gives a damn? I don't make you listen to Green Day, so please stop your bitching and whining. No one really cares! This probably has nothing to do with anything... but I wanted to say it anyway.

right on punk was created, not as a set of rules, but just something a group of freaks created because they didnt like the mainstream. just because they signed to a major label and made some money doesnt mean they are sellouts or posers. they deserve every cent they got cause they are the best. its not their fault a lot of real crappy and poser bands followed them
