Tell me what we're in for with the new show.
You're in for a big rock extravaganza. It's like Green Day times 10. I don't want to reveal too much, but the crowd is definitely as much a part of the show as the band.
Audience participation seems to be important to Billie Joe.
Yeah, he's definitely a showman. A punk rock dictator. (Laughs) He gets up there and the whole crowd-obedience factor goes way up. Everybody's there to have a good time and he's like the scout leader.
How do you make it bigger and better than last time?
Write another kickass record and play songs off of it. We're switching it up; we're not doing the same songs we did on the last tour. We're adding songs that people didn't get to hear last time and we haven't played in years. And we're playing the newer stuff -- basically mixing from all the records. That's a physical feat in itself, playing all those songs. There's 20-something songs, maybe 30.
if you have it, You dont need it.
if you need it, You dont have it.
if you have it, You need more of it.
if you have more of it, You dont need less of it.
You need it, To get it.
and you certainly need it to get more of it.
But if you dont already have any of it to begin with, you cant get any of it to get started with, which means you really have no idea how to get it in the first place, do you.
you can share it, sure.
You can even stockpile it if you'd like.
but you cant fake it.
wanting it, needing it, wishing for it.
The point is... if you've never had any of it... ever, People just seem to know.
