1. Please
do me a big huge favor and sing along really loudly when they sing that part of American Idiot where he says
I must be the faggot America
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda
Everybody do the propoganda
And sing along in the age of paranoia.

I wish I could go. I love Green Day. They rock.

off work/school). The ODU show in Norfolk is a Friday (don't know how far you are from there).

Tix are $35. Same for the Norfolk show.


I was impressed how reasonable the tix were. I paid $250 a ticket to see Paul McCartney. Now I'm a Beatles freak, and he's the only person I'd pay that much to see, but still, that was kind of ridiculous. I respect Green Day for many things, but especially for not gouging its fans.

12. I'm on the bottom line on the NC map
It's quite a distance to Norfolk. I am assuming you mean Virginia right?
I'm thinking about trying to find an excuse to skip classes for the Charlotte show. ;)

It's interesting how we like the same parts of the song. They rule.

Edited on Sat Feb-26-05 11:02 AM by SCRUBDASHRUB
the hell couldn't they have had shows like this come to ODU when WE were there (graduated in 1992)?" They did a lot of sprucing up and building AFTER we left, naturally. Should be a blast!
