These guys make awful music, we all know that, but I thought this was kinda cool for some reason.
Green Day Billie Joe freaks out at the I Heart Radio Music Festival and smashes guitar (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9zogQOmQVM&feature=share#ws)

It's not cool. The dude is a fucking diva.

I hope they have enough money to buy new guitars before thier next gig.

That's going towards their eyeliner kit and Muppet hair extensions.
-
That was some serious second hand embarrassment. The funniest part to me is when Billy starts smashing his guitar, his band mate on the right is just like, whatever, I guess I'll just smash my guitar too.
-
so punk
-
I grew up in his neighborhood. Seen him once or twice. He's like 5 feet tall and a total dick
-

i don't know man...love them or hate them, they've been making music for a really long time now. its a pretty big insult to have your set cut in half, most likely for some other artist who was actually being a real diva. also with a band that big, for them to even play a show like that there is probably something in their contract that makes sure that shit like that doesn't happen.
anyway, i thought it was funny and not entirely out of line. its not like they cut their set short and stormed off over some trivial shit. they were pissed that they couldn't play more.
-
it's time for them to wrap it up. you're not punk when you're playing for a corporate festival owned by Clear Channel. stop pretending

Yeah I know. Since 1988. He said it 10 fucking times.

It was Usher, for the record.
Also, set times are strict as fuck for festivals. Yeah, it sucks, but that reaction is just bratty as fuck, no matter which way you look at it.

He should've said fuck more.

I don't know what his problem is. If my boss told me I only had to work a half day, I'd be happy.

I could see getting booked and promised a certain amount of time and then getting it cut down by some corporate promoter types who overbooked it. At the very least I'd feel disrespected. No doubt seeing that one minutes sign probably brought it all to the front of his head. Honestly though, saying fuck a bunch and smashing your guitar is pretty tame in terms of rock and roll standards. Its not like he went full on GG Allin and started throwing shit at the audience while trying to fight everybody. People smash guitars all the time. Roger Daltry and Jimi Hendrix used to do it back in the 60's, this thread needs to be about how much more insane people used to get.
Let's start with Mr. Keith Moon:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdvN23EXCco (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdvN23EXCco)
Watch until the end... he decided to put ten times the recommended amount of gunpowder in his drum as was recommended for a theatrical explosion.
When they did that, nobody was sitting around calling them divas or asking why they smashed their guitars and nearly killed the lead guitars with a bomb. Everybody these days are such pussies.

Dear Green Day,
You're doing it wrong.

...it's obviously not about the theatrics.

Ηe was right but his reaction was too theatrical and exaggerated to the point of being ridicilous. Well green day used to be a cool band until they went corpo. When music evolves under a thousand lights and eyes always goes bad and lame.

POOP!

What is it about then? Are people worried he hurt the stage, or that he no longer will be able to play guitar? He ranted and made a scene, it was pure theatrics. Its not like he refused to get on or off stage because of the issue. He played a set, and when the set was essentially over anyway he smashed his guitar said why he was pissed, and walked off, he still completely fulfilled his part of the agreement, played the show for the audience, and left them with something to talk about the next day.

I suppose I should have said Pete Townshend, though Daltry did occasionally play guitar and even smash it from time to time.

fuck that. I'm not going to offer a list of better "best music of the last 25 years" but Greenday is a horrible remnant of the mid 90s mainstreaming of or creation of pop punk. In 95 Rancid got on the alternative airwaves with ...and out come the wolves. it drops bag a diarrhea and rusty syringes on any of those albums. I'm not even trying to argue that it's their best record either, Let's Go! and the first album are killer.
Tim Armstrong went the right route with epitaph and then hellcat, well, the transplants suck shit, and you've got this fuckstick prancing around being "punk." Fuck that. Fuck Greenday. And Fuck the idea that they have made fantastic albums.

Green Day are punk for people who don't like punk. There's so many bands out there that do similar things but better it's staggering to me that people would actually listen to them for any reason but '90s nostalgia.

Your playing that show, with Usher or whoever the fuck it was, and taking it seriously in the first place. So shut the fuck up. If you are so pissed at mainstream music, don't play a show with people you don't like.

i mean they signed to a major back in the mid 90's, you'd think they'd be used to taking orders from "the man" ???

Having your publicist apologize on Twitter for you is punk as fuck.

In 1994 I got the Dookie flower tattooed over my heart. It's burning right now due to rehab sympathy. Maybe I should have gone with the Jawbreaker tattoo so I could have more cred 18 years later.

Their 1st three albums were pretty good. When I come around is still one of my favorite tunes from the 90's but that eyeliner shit is gay. The fact that some people think eyeliner is punk is horrible, I told my mom that i was gonna go to a punk show (I was seeing the angry samoans) she asked if I wanted to borrow some eyeliner. Boy I wanted to slap her for that.

it's time for them to wrap it up. you're not punk when you're playing for a corporate festival owned by Clear Channel. stop pretending
The Ramones played Lollapalooza. Iggy Pop was on American Idol. They're not claiming to be Crass (Who would want to anyway?) What's punk? Playing to only 3 people in a parking garage in Pyongyang? Is Azealia Banks punk? Is Nirvana punk? Billy Idol? Bob Dylan? I don't think Green Day claim to be punk. Maybe they do, I dunno. Your point of view is juvenile. Is punk a sound? Image? Ideology? To be fair to Green Day, they're old albums are a lot more listenable than so called punk like Siouxsie and The Banshees, or even the Buzzcocks and way better than the ultimate pseudo punk like The Cure, The Talking Heads, The Police, you know, all the worst shit. Secondly, no band stays good forever. Name one.
This is undeniably great.

having a tantrum and smashing your guitar is juvenile. i don't think you have an understanding of what punk music is. The Cure, Siouxsie and The Banshees and The Police would never be considered remotely punk, on any music historians list. i suggest you delve into music history a bit. The Buzzcocks were considered cheesy back in their heyday.
yelling at the organizers of the venue/festival who are paying you is, in my opinion, trying to act punk. only problem is it has the opposite effect in his case, making him look like a fucking tool.

HA...it's ok. I just wanted to see what you knew. Obviously,it's you with no understanding of punk.
i'm just practicing my 'how to deal with a troll' techniques. one thing is never answer questions from a troll. instead put the questions on them.
why do you enjoy trolling?

it's time for them to wrap it up. you're not punk when you're playing for a corporate festival owned by Clear Channel. stop pretending
The Ramones played Lollapalooza. Iggy Pop was on American Idol. They're not claiming to be Crass (Who would want to anyway?) What's punk? Playing to only 3 people in a parking garage in Pyongyang? Is Azealia Banks punk? Is Nirvana punk? Billy Idol? Bob Dylan? I don't think Green Day claim to be punk. Maybe they do, I dunno. Your point of view is juvenile. Is punk a sound? Image? Ideology? To be fair to Green Day, they're old albums are a lot more listenable than so called punk like Siouxsie and The Banshees, or even the Buzzcocks and way better than the ultimate pseudo punk like The Cure, The Talking Heads, The Police, you know, all the worst shit. Secondly, no band stays good forever. Name one.
This is undeniably great.
Green Day - Going To Pasalacqua (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yvivoayXcg#)
I think some of you are mistaking Green Day for Good Charlotte or Blink 182. (Looking at you Weedpop)
having a tantrum and smashing your guitar is juvenile. i don't think you have an understanding of what punk music is. The Cure, Siouxsie and The Banshees and The Police would never be considered remotely punk, on any music historians list. i suggest you delve into music history a bit. The Buzzcocks were considered cheesy back in their heyday.
yelling at the organizers of the venue/festival who are paying you is, in my opinion, trying to act punk. only problem is it has the opposite effect in his case, making him look like a fucking tool.
Green Day has always sucked
What is punk music?
why do you ask?

exactly.
we can get into the history of punk rock and have a long 'ol discussion, but since you troll 95% of the time, Hairy Cooch, it makes it really difficult to take anything you say seriously.
why should we go out of our way to discuss something with someone who is only on here to get a rise out of people?
you pretty much have no credibly whatsoever, so why even bother?

I think it's easy to tell by my original post that I'm not trolling, that's why you responded to it. Now that I have asked you a question you can't answer, you conveniently switch back to the idea that I'm just trolling. I'm not trolling 95% of the time.
So Floop, now that it's settled, lets get back to it. What is punk? If you are such an authority. I can already see you're out of your depth by claiming that music historians wouldn't call Siouxsie and The Banshees punk, (clearly they would and do) and how my point on pseudo punk such as the Police and Cure went over your head, (obviously you don't even know what pseudo means) but I'm curious to know what you think is punk. I'm mean really it should be me not responding to your accusations, but I'm willing to hear your opinion.

Siouxsie and the Banshees would be considered New Wave or post-punk. i'm curious to know what you think is punk. Green Day?

Haha New Wave... Nirvana is grunge right? That's VH1 language. Yeah, Green Day is for sure a punk band. They started as a punk band, they're just a bigger one now. When does a band stop being punk and start being something else? It's not that black and white. They're not Avril Lavigne. I don't think punk is only a sound or image, that is a shallow way of looking at things. I think punk is doing the opposite of what is expected. Within and outside of it.

Hairy Cunt,
As far as referencing "historians," anyone can write a book, regardless of truth that it holds. Your theories on punk are in line with your theories on economics and the government. pulled from sources like wikipedia.
You call me out on grammar yet claim that I "sound like a KROQ listener." You've never heard me speak, fuckstick.
I've got to give you some credit where it's due. A 14 year old kid who isn't afraid to argue, albeit on the internet, has potential.

What are you talking about!!? You are incoherent man! Referencing historians? What?
Discrediting Wikipedia doesn't really cut it these days, especially in matters of pop-culture, it's not just some dude's blog. Most of the articles on there amalgamate from legitimate sources. It's a quick reference. (I can't believe I'm explaining this!) What's your source, Please Kill Me? Our Band Could Be Your Life? Westway to the World? End of The Century? Who hasn't read or seen those?
You type like a KROQ listener. OK? Good.

You're babbling.
Seriously, no one posting from a country where punk is government funded can tell me Shane MacGowan is not punk. Someone else has to see the irony there.
Also ,clearly for you punk is no more than an aesthetic. Which then The Pogues should easily fit into your narrow minded view of what punk is, ie, they play fast, and have rough singing, and because it's merely an aesthetic to you I wouldn't be surprised if you thought Billy Idol was punk.
Once again I didn't say the Police were punk, I said pseudo punk. You just don't know what pseudo means, because you are thick. Thank you for trying though.

WOW it really is ESl day up in this bitch. Punk for you obviously means a mohawk and clothes pin through the nose. Let me guess, you shop at hot topic too. See you at the Warped Tour!
Shane MacGowan is Irish. Not by birth, by blood. You know nothing.

Punk goverment funded?
Once again you have no clue what you are talking about, you claim to be a republican you obviously doesnt know what punk is all about.
Its not about stealing from the poor and give to the rich.
Psuedo punk, great hang out more on wiki, its just a word made up by some journalist, Police was a pop band in the 80�s, pop bands sounded like that then.
But what do you know, you werent even born back then.

I didn't know my thread about a d-list rockstar having a melt down would make it to 4 pages and then turn into a discussion about what "real punk" is. Thank you, guys.

Punk is many things to many different people. Punk started in America by proto - punk bands like New York Dolls, The Stooges, MC5, Death (original not the metal band), Rocket from the Tombs, Rubber City Rebels etc... later The Rmones took up the banter, toured England where many folks like Johnny Rotten saw them and later stated bands and the rest is history.
I am tired of the debate about who and who isn't punk, in 1985 my friends and I got made fun, looked down on and sometimes jumped for listening to anything that wasn't mainstream, didn't matter if it was Crass, Dead Kennedy's, Black Flag, The Cure, Souxie and the Banshees, Bauhaus etc... To me it was all punk the rest was just labels....
I still go to a lot of shows in houses here in Sacramento, lots of great bands some doing sounds of old some making up their own way, it's all good and I enjoy it.
No fuck off!!

The worst part of punk rock is the scene and all the people trying to be the most punk. Its very ironic that a movement that centers around the concept of anarchy has so many unspoken rules

Only small segments of punk are into anarchy, punk is everything from really left wing to really right wing. You should explore a little more before making blanket statements like this.

Who gives a shit? That's my real point. Don't worry about how widely applicable my joke about the irony is, worry about how it is stupid to get into arguments about what "real punk" is.

Also - a big part of what "punk" is to you depends on where you're from in the country. Your environment really shaped your scene and impacted it. These two books really helped to put a lot of things into perspective for me - since I was not alive for the time period when punk was red hot.

I think what Gipper is trying to say (earlier) is that it's ironic (& hypocritical ) that a music genre (punk) that seems to advocate "individuality" and free thought, has so many unwritten rules.
I think that's the general point he was making. I agree with that sentiment

That makes more sense, if he had written it that way I would agree, being older I am glad I don't have to worry about all the stupid rules, I am just one of the old guys at the show now, I could wear a suit and tie and no one would care.
