#AmericanIdiot20 Release?

Recently on Green Day's social media accounts they announced a special edition of their major label debut, Dookie, for its 30th anniversary. It contains the original album, plus demos and live songs that were unreleased.

But not only is 2024 Dookie's 30th anniversary but it is also the 20th anniversary of American Idiot. (Gosh I feel old for saying that...) It makes me wonder if Green Day will do something for American Idiot, which I really hope they do.

Please let #AmericanIdiot20 happen!

11/12/2023 Update: This month Green Day announced a world tour to promote their upcoming new album Saviors next year. And the tour is also celebrating the 30th and 20th anniversaries of Dookie and American Idiot. At least Green Day is celebrating the latter album's anniversary but I hope a reissue will come out at some point.

WMUWSE DVD

This is a Canadian promotional DVD that has the music video for "Wake Me Up When September Ends." A decade ago this was given to me by a friend of my brother's who lives in Canada.

Don't Wanna Be An American Idiot

Happy Fourth. A quick discussion on this post, but the third verse from "American Idiot" rings so true of what's been going on in the US in recent years.

"Don't wanna be an American idiot

One nation controlled by the media

Information age of hysteria

It's calling out to idiot America"
