I find it funny that John Lydon talks about how Green Day is some big, corporate sell-out band when the Pistols were about as manufactured as you can get in "punk". They've been given the sole credit for a genre that already existed before them, and that others have done better.

Plus, he's very anti-lgbtq+. Also, the Pistols and Green Day came from completely different times and places. The punk scene in England during the 70s was much more abrasive than the one taking place across the pond. Both scenes wanted change but they wanted it in different ways. England was aimed at the 18+ crowd and focused on anarchy. America, however, was more youth oriented and focused on playing fast and loud while telling authority figures to fuck off When Green Day got started, it was a whole new era with the birth of MTV. You could see concerts from your home, bands now put out music videos to promote their singles, and you learn how to own the stage from watching your idols. It also gave kids exposure to new music genres that weren't as popular at the record stores. Plus, Green Day came from the East Bay area of California which had a much friendlier environment with the famous 924 Gilman Street, an ALL AGES punk club

I love how Noel Gallagher believes he owns one of the most basic chord progressions of all time

Noel's mad about someone ripping off his song? That's his career! I know you're paying people, Noel, but that doesn't mean you're not doing it! And yeah, the Green Day song has the same "around the world" chord progression that "Wonderwall" has but "Wonderwall" has the same "around the world" chord progression every other song has. Check out "Alive" by Pearl Jam- the chorus. Check out "Man In a Box" by Alice in Chains. Again, the chorus. The melodies to both songs are completely different so Green Day's song is not the same as yours, Noel. And to be fair I think "Wonderwall" is a much better song but don't tell me Billy Joe's melody is the same as your duotone based melody. That's you in a nutshell- duotone melodies and duotone solos. It's monotonous.

And it's down to the power of the music and the excitement they generated in 1976 BEFORE the craziness and chaos came. Glen's Small Faces-influenced songs were amazingly well-written and anthemic. Lydon's lyrics, presence, and attitude - amazing, Steve's monstrous slashing guitar sound that only he can quite get. And the sheer power and tightness they had as a unit live.

There wasn't anything safe and family-friendly about traveling down through downtown Detroit in the mid-late 1960's in a very edgy, violent part of one of America's most deadliest, crime-ridden cities and a city that in the summer of 1967, experienced one of the worst race riots in U.S. history that killed 43 people(33 of them African-Americans), caused hundreds of millions of dollars in damage, exerserbated and accelerated the exodus of upper/middle-class whites and blacks from the city to suburbs like Pontiac, Smithfield, and Eight Mile, precipitated a long and painful social, economic and population decline of a city that used to be one of America's wealthiest, progressive and most diverse demographics in the nation. If one visited the old, demolished Grande Theater and saw the MC5, the house band, it was like watching controlled, musical chaos erupting on-stage every night. It felt to many like a musical Revolution was occuring alongside a political one.

I love that blink was just minding their own business making the music that they wanted to make, which is the entirety of punk doing what you want no matter what anyone else thinks. That's the definition of punk, making your own way.

I don’t think Green Day and blink had any sort of animosity between them. Mark had himself pictured wearing a Kerplunk t-shirt back in the day. Mark wished Billie Joe well after he got into rehab. Mike Dirnt gave the drummer Travis Barker a bass as a gift then late gifted Mark hoppus one of his signature basses in a Mark Hoppus themed color

They did have some slight little beef towards the end of the tour but all is good now

I remember the third eye blind thing: Green Day was supposed to play quad twisted Christmas but the venue people came up and said Green Day had to postpone due to third eye blind guy hurting dirnt with beer bottle. One cool thing happened: greenday themselves refunded everyone’s ticket AMD promised to play the next year. The dueche move they did was they didn’t show for no reason just didn’t feel like playing that’s all I went to see and they flaked

#1: Green Day did sell themselves out to the establishment and that's why Johnny hated them, but that's the most rock n' roll move ever. #2: Third Eye Blind was always intoxicated and saying/doing stupid sh*t, but that's also the most rock n' roll move ever.

Johnny Rotten complaining about Green Day being sellouts must be the funniest thing ever, considering Sex Pistols were unable to play properly and they were a marketing move from 2 wannabe stylists to sell their “fashion” to the masses. That have to be the reason why Billy Joe says GD are inspired by The Clash.

G.D. is just a phenomenal band.

A quote from Green Day I Don't Care.

John Lydon should stick to advertising butter.

I was one of those screaming English kids on the DVD back in 2005, me and my best mate flew down from Scotland to attend. Greenday had been a band for the same length of time that I had been on this Earth. American Idiot soon became the reason I went off Greenday. Too mich politics and not enough fun IMO.

Noel can't copyright a basic chord progression, and he can't criticize copying after Oasis basically copied the Beatles.

I wouldn't call it a resurgence persay, it's just that the band swiftly evolved to match the rising change in how the sound of music in general was changing. Green Day changed with the times and evolved, as where the Sex Pistols were terrible people in their interviews, treated their fans like sh**, and never evolved their sound just for the sake of their own egos. Third Eye Blind was never even a band worth listening to. My guess was Salazar just wanted to throw that beer bottle at the nearest person available, knowing they were replacing his 1 hit wonder garage band on the charts. P.S. @4:03 NOFX waddup!! Facts are facts, Dirnt speaks the holy word! I just sat and listened to Wonderwall and Boulevard back to back to see where the idea the song was ripped off comes from. I hear the guitars are tuned the same buuuuuttt... to call Boulevard a rip off of Wonderwall is like saying Apples stole all their flavor from oranges.. That's just some bullsh*t right there..No big surprise though I guess.. He also got all pissed off about Dave Grohl just... existing?

Hahaha, the Pistols would have reformed without Green Day existing. GD should remember, they owe more of a debt to The Ramones than any UK punk.

Probably due to the fact they support mainstream liberal views of the world, but pose as anti-establishment. Johnny Rotten is spot on with these posers!

The problem a lot of people have with Green Day is that punk is political and anti establishment. Green Day weren't but still claimed to be punk. In an era when we really needed bands like Green Day to be political, they were promoting apathy and stoner culture. This was really frustrating to have to listen to when you could see what was coming and yet we had Green Day hogging the airwaves. They only became political when it was profitable for them to do so and that was when it was too late.
