tauiwi Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 I read the review in the Herald Sun of the Greenday concert, and it seemed like it was amazing. A 3-hour set from Greenday? Awesome. Setlist looks incredible, the two encores hard to top. So you enjoyed it, Emma? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Italian Plastic Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 The Australian and New Zealand charts are very alike. We've both got all that popular stuff and our own stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tauiwi Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Yep. That's one of their biggest hits. If I was to recommend any album of theirs, it would be 2001's 'Vulture St', its one of my favourite of the decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grace. Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Great blog! I particularly liked this part... I went with my mate Andrew to Coldplay, discovered that there’s more to a good show than music and that I never want seats at a gig ever again. We both were surrounded with morbid lifeless idiots to which we put to shame by standing whenever we could and belting out every single lyric. ...because I know exactly what you're talking about, I was there! Oh, and you missed your double dose of Eskimo Joe in there :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
