What’s funny is he’s the Bay Area equivalent of a redneck.
Wonder what they would think of Randy Newman’s “Rednecks” (which is really a swipe at Northern hypocrisy)
Bet this idiot is all gung-ho for going to war for Ukraine.
What does this tw@t have to say about present events?
Well I hope Billie Armstrong will remember, a Southern man don’t need him around anyhow.
And...Today.... Country music, extolling many of the same virtues he seethes against, has exploded into the mainstream and Billie Joe grasps for one last gasp of relevance....
They make some catchy tunes, but they have ZERO idea of what redneck actually means.
Well southern men don't need you around anyhow.
I've never heard of you, your band or your stupid song.
Green Day was always fake poser punk rock for teenagers.
‘Oh my God, why would you be proud of something like that?’
Rednecks built the country where a little punk POS like Billy Armstrong can be a punk POS and make a lot of money. Rednecks protect that little punk. Rednecks feed that little punk. Rednecks produce the oil that fuels that little punk’s tour busses.
“ Oh my God, why would you be proud of something like that?’ This is exactly what I’m against”
Kind of like Green Day being American hating ignorant libtards I can’t stand to listen to
They’r exactly what I’m against
Stay out of our country
'American Idiot' - Billie Joe Armstrong (Green Day)
-Father was a truck driver and mother was a waitress
-Launched from San Francisco area
These two don't hate "rednecks"; they hate themselves. It's just easier to project it onto others.
The Southern Man don't need 'em around anyhow.
In 20 or 50 or 100 years, who will be remembered Lynyrd Skynyrd or Green Day?
Green Day was the cash cow of Hollywood and were not punk – they were slick, greedy and could definitely play their instruments, whereas punk was not about how well they played their instruments but about attitude. Punk hated established bands like Led Zeppelin who they thought were dinosaurs, because they were cash cows to the establishment. Both Green Day and Nirvana sold out and became the mainstream, cash cows that they hated in other bands. Old story...
He’s a drunken American Idiot. Green Day and Rage Against The Machine had to stifle themselves when Obama was in office running the same wars that GW did.
Green day started out OK. But then it was like every song had that same whinny sound. So I could not longer stand them.
Lynyrd Skynyrd is 1000 times better than Green Day on a bad day.
Green Day, the toe jam of the Ramones.
I've never heard of the song and it won't be remembered through the ages, not like those nasty old redneck Lynyrd Skynyrd tunes. *shrug*
Many believe themselves brillant and superior but can hardly see a thing looking down that nose.
Intellectuals sometimes struggle more than the average Joe but it's ok, we still love ya. :)
