Hoping they are able to find a way to do a trilogy with this properly! Loved the trailer. Everything looks better and I'm glad they were able to make some of the recurring characters a tad younger for this film. So excited!!

He was probably reminiscing or probably did it in case for the fans who haven't seen it already.

Some funny pics of Ron goofing around with some of the GNR band members, staff, and random celebrities during those legs of the tour a few years back.
#2394 Re: The Sunset Strip » Billie Joe Armstrong is not a Bon Jovi fan » 738 weeks ago
The truth is that both bands are fake - Jovi isn't a rock band any more than Green Day is a punk band. They are both pop acts. Always have been. It's not that I dislike Jovi...I just prefer Green Day. It may be as simple as my little brother was a huge fan and I got sick of hearing it as a kid.
As far as fake punk bands go, Green Day has been (off and on) one of the best if not the best since the 90s began. I'm hit and miss with their material too, but like pretty much everything from AI going backwards. Not because it's musically great but because it isn't. It's simple, catchy pop music. If you accept it for what it is, it's pretty good. If you go in expecting it to be raw punk, you're going to be disappointed.
As a bad amateur guitar player, I love me some Green Day that I can just strum the hell out of to get out some frustration...it's one of the few bands that I can cover pretty much anything they put out on guitar. I don't play guitar to be good...it's usually a stress release for me.
Same here! Completely agree!

But what is this animated video people keep talking about?
from msl documents...a few versions...can't remember where animated info came from but I think it was legit.
016. Better video treatment v1
028. Better video treatment v2
020. Chinese Democracy video treatmeant
023. Street of Dreams video treatment
Ohhhhh, okay, I know what you're talking about. The director admitted to making a treatment for it. Just looked it up:
The concept for the Better video is pretty wacky. Not sure if the video ever actually got made as I only have the video treatment and some rough sketches. Nicholas Peterson was slated as director. Set in a surreal world of desert rocks and valleys, the video is an allegory of a man who fell in love and couldn't let go.
According to the director, the video would be a mixture of traditional stop motion animation puppets and 2-D hand drawn animation.
The main character is named Stanley, a man who attempts to turn himself into a bird like creature to win the love of a wounded bird woman.
Sounds like a perfect Robin video. Too bad it wasn't made for TIL.
Sounds like a perfect vision for a video from Axl! 
It does sound really cool!

As far as I've always heard, that's the case. There are some users on mygnr always claiming to "turn people in" for listening to leaks so I'm guessing it's one of those asses.
Hate those guys! 
Some guys on Youtube were leaking some stuff I haven't heard before; but it was probably fake.

#2399 Re: The Sunset Strip » Billie Joe Armstrong is not a Bon Jovi fan » 738 weeks ago
I prefer Green Day to Jovi. It's a personal preference. Green Day's value is in their simplicity in my opinion.
I love both bands. Some of the more recent material Green Day have put down have been hit or miss for me. I like a good mix of their material. Love Dookie, some tracks from Insomniac, Nimrod, and love most of American Idiot. 21st Century Breakdown could of been a better album; but some of the songs could of been written better. They had a great producer. Liked their newest song, Nuclear Family. Had a classic sound. Oh Love was okay for the most part. Plus this girl I'm friends with (that I really like) loves them; so talking to her about that music doesn't hurt my chances. 
She wants to be a musician and we always share our musical interests. As for Bon Jovi I rock out to their tunes as well. Couldn't get into their recent album that came out a few years ago. Billie Joe's comment was uncalled for though and rather childish. Especially since he is a grown man and his statement sounds like an annoying youtube comment. I still like the guy as a musician (sounds like a chill dude from time to time); but hey most musicians I like can be dicks sometimes. Axl, Billie Joe, Mustaine, I could go on. Damn I miss that Wall concert. Now that was a epic show with tons of energy and on time with no drama. Flying pig and Mr. Roger Waters (pure genius!) 
Even though I had to pay extra money cause that bitch sold the tickets $30 more than what they were actually worth on the box office website. 
:Such is life! Still totally worth it!

What's even more sad is the top video on the Guns official website is Sweet Child O' Mine. Especially since this band is trying to move forward; but still using the image of
