Kerrang! Scans

Sep. 9, 2009 / Comments
Our thanks to Jennie H. for sending us the Kerrang! scans to share. It's a very good read, and to sum it up, it's basically Kerrang! saying Green Day has the best damn show out there. Here are the scans:



And some note-worthy quotes from the article.
What can British audiences expect when they come and see you in October?
They can expect to get laid," says Tre Cool.
"By You?"
Smiling, Nodding, "Sure, if they like."

When asked what younger-Green Day would have thought of the current-Green Day, Tre says
"They would have liked us, but we would have hated them. We would have probably kicked them off the tour, they were assholes

Billie Joe was asked if there was a better live band in the world, he said:
Honestly, I would have to say there's not. Not to toot my own horn here, but I think it's absolutely the best show that's out there at the moment. We're able to create an intimacy that no-one else can match


And some quick facts about the tour. There are 93 crew members, which traveled to nearly 40 cities since early July on seven tour buses and 11 semi's which carry the entire stage, merchandise, equipment and pyrotechnics. Mike said they do all their traveling by bus because, "We don't charge enough to fly between shows".
