    This is the album that made 11 year old me care about contemporary music and developed my actual tastte in music, rather than just accepting whatever was on.

    While my current taste is a conglomerate of different styles (Where Green Day doesn’t hold much territory, to be honest), learning Basket Case on guitar was an important step for me as a 12 year old.

    I saw Green Day in concert around 2013. I’m fortunate to have seen a fair number of big-name acts, back when paper tickets were still a thing - and GD stood out. The clock struck 8:00 pm and Green Day started rocking. The clock struck 11:00 pm and they walked off after their second encore, done for the night. They were so precise. All the while making things look and feel chaotic and just straight up rock’n’roll on stage. It was impressive. Cool. It was an event. One of my most memorable rock concerts for sure

    Did I buy this at Sam the Record Man or Sunrise? Oh wait, I never bought it at all because GREEN DAY SUCKS.

    Now, if you need me I’ll be in ‘S’ for Soundgarden.

      Want to bake your noodle even more?

      30 years and a couple months prior to that, JFK was assassinated.

        There’s been 29 Super Bowls since its release.

        It released a few days after Super Bowl 28.
