Tre and Mike are amazing friends, man. Went smashing right alongside him. It's shit like that why this band is still world touring and producing new music.
I met the love of my life and my partner of 10 years at a Green Day concert during the trilogy tour. We're both huge fans and bonded over our love for the band. He moved countries right before the show, so the only reason we met was because the tour got rescheduled. If Billie hadn't gone to rehab I would be a completely different person with a different life. I think about that a lot. When you take the time to heal and care for yourself, you make the world a better place. The ripples of positive change impact others in a million different ways you'd never expect.
“When you cross the line and all you’re doing is trying to look for pleasure because you are in pain all the time, that’s when you are a danger to yourself”
It's good stuff! I'm glad they released it, and like many others I don't think the middle album Dos is all that good because the songs are just too middle-of-the-road for what we all know what Green Day is capable of. As a collection though, it has really good music on it!
@@devilsoffspring5519 i love that every green day fan has a different opinion on the trilogy. you think dos is the weakest whereas i’ve seen people so strong defend dos as the best, for example. i feel like its quite representative of what the trilogy means to fans- the fact that everyone has a different favourite and people still discuss it means that they were good albums
Everytime I hear Billie talking about this I just wanna hug him and say to him that the Trilogy doesn't suck. I actually love it so much. I listen to most of it everyday, it's part of my life. Yes, the production is not the best but the material is mostly great. I think the whole thing changed him in a big way and I feel like he's a little bit scared of being ambitious as he was when he wrote American Idiot or 21st Century Breakdown. If you read what he said about writting 21 Guns and the whole album in general I think I'm right about this.
Anyone who likes Green Day knows the Trilogy fucking rocks. It might not be a huge commercial success, but Green Day were all multi-millionaires already so who really gives half a fuck? The trilogy has some truly great shit on it, with that classic Green Day 'ring' to it and that familiar rock 'n' roll feel that we've all grown to know and love. It's good listening, and good rockin'. People complain about it because bitches gotta bitch--that's what bitches do.
I don’t think he’s scared of being ambitious, I think he’s just tired. He talks about how he finds it hard to listen to 21st CB because it reminds him of how much hard work they put into it. I think Green Day’s at a point in their lives where they just want to have fun and not worry so much about being as ambitious as they were in their heyday.
@@devilsoffspring5519 People complain about it cause half the songs on it are either meaningless filler or just plain cringey. The other half are good, some even great, but coming off two of the greatest rock operas of all time? I understand people expecting a little better than filler.
Considering how great Forever Now turned out, I can't believe people make such a fuss over Still Breathing. Mind you, it's a decent song. It's like everyone making a giant fuss over Boulevard of Broken Dreams, or Wake Me Up from the album American Idiot. Both are half-decent tunes, but both are also pretty weak, lame songs compared to Jesus of Suburbia or Homecoming.
@@Joelster-og4pf A lot of people like it, I'm not knocking anyone that does. But, Forever Now is a Green Day tour-de-force chock full of heart and soul. It's basically a melodic punk masterpiece for those guys :)
@@devilsoffspring5519 I mean, yeah, I see your point of view, but I believe the reason people really like “Still Breathing” is probably due to some longtime GD fans feeling burnt out from listening to the trilogy. I believe in some way, Revolution Radio was a breath of fresh air for some of them…
@@Joelster-og4pf Rev Radio was a good album. The problem was that the song Forever Now was TOO good :) If I put the album on then I just waiting for that one song. The rest of it has some really good stuff, but I just want to hear that one song :)
I've always enjoyed the trilogy, and I think it has a lot more personal weight and depth than most people give it credit for. I look at it as Bille Joe recording his midlife crisis for all of us to listen to. Lazy Bones is legitimately one of my favorite Green Day songs. Anyway, Billie means a lot to me and his music has helped me get through some tough times. If I'm ever lucky enough to meet him, I'm gonna make sure I thank him for that.
He can easily afford it, it's no big deal for him. Even if addiction treatment cost him, say, $100,000, that's still a relatively trivial amount of money for the band as a whole. They're all multimillionaires and none of them have to work for a living.
@@devilsoffspring5519to be fair. I think what the person was trying to say was if he kept drinking doing drugs he would’ve died. Money wasn’t even like part of their comment or even billies story :/
@@devilsoffspring5519oing to rehab is not only a matter of affording it . Addicted people mostly don't care about theire addiction, they don't see it. It's a chance for him that he had a sort of electrical shock after the show , opening his eyes. Addiction is pretty shitty to heal. He must have gone through hell during his time in rehab
@@devilsoffspring5519Doesn’t matter if you can afford it, actually going for it and having it help isn’t an easy thing to do mentally when you’re going through such a dark time No amount of money can automatically fix your mental problems and make it easier, sure there’s more ways of treatment you’d have access too but mental health wise it never gets easier
"Rise and Grind" doesn't apply to Green Day and hasn't in many years. All of the band members have been independently wealthy since they were in their 20s.
poor baby:'( It breaks my heart knowing that he was and maybe still is hurting because he saved my life with his music. It hurts knowing that thing that saved me could be the thing that almost killed him.
Everyone has personal problems, it's just being human. But, BJ is a multimillionaire and doesn't have to work at a job to make ends meet every month. I love my Green Day but he's being a whiner. Nobody's perfect, but if he was unhappy with his life, it's not like he had to get up in the morning and go to work all day long at a job that made him want to kill himself! He's wealthy as all fuck compared to the 'average Joe' doctor or lawyer!
@@devilsoffspring5519 so just because he has celebrity that dismisses his addiction? so then is that the same for Chris Cornell, Nikki Sixx, Layne Staley, Amy Winehouse, Anthony Kiedis? It wasn't the job that was killing him, yes, he was extremely burnt out - but he dealt with addiction all throughout his childhood up until his 40s. I completely agree with the job aspect, there are so many average people who die from overdoses daily and nobody gives a shit. But as soon as a celebrity bites the tongue of addiction it's all eyes on them. And that's sad, addiction should be dealt with in a better way. That said, addiction comes in so many different ways and a lot of times rehabs don't work. A lot of people (Chris Cornell, Nikki Sixx, etc) have spoken that they have had to go to rehab multiple times. Sometimes it's not just for everyone. Billie Joe did a great interview with RollingStone covering his addiction and his recovery and rehab experiences. I think it would be an interesting read for you. I don't think he was whining, which I don't know maybe that's just me and my opinion, but his addiction and the way he presented himself isn't great and can be hard to watch. I don't think it's anyones place, but his, to speak on his addiction and experiences. No hate. All love and respect. Happy Holidays :)
@@mikalahowens1373 I agree, but keep in mind that chemical addictions are a lot more tolerable when you're independently wealthy. They are absolute living HELL if you have to work for it at a job, and arguably they are worse in some ways if you're on welfare. I'm addicted to alcohol and nicotine so I know what total crap addictions are and how they make you almost want to waste your life on that stupid bullshit.
@@mikalahowens1373 Well, I'll quit when I have a reason to, which is probably death. You don't really get "help" for this kind of thing, you just... quit doing it, let yourself go absolutely beyond insane for the next couple months, and try not to end up in prison. I quit smoking cigarettes for a few months about 15 years ago. I damn near shot a cop that was whining and moaning about my speed on the highway (I was going the same speed as everyone else.) So, quitting has more repercussions than it seems and absolutely nobody can help you with that. You just have to go through absolute living hell to withdraw from a chemical, and even for "mild" drugs like nicotine the sheer hell of it is absolutely beyond description. There's simply sweet fuck-all you can do about it. But thanks anyway :)
Trilogy was amazing.. understandable why the IHeart incident happened, especially after hearing the events that led up to it.. IMO only, Billie has made sacrifices to his fans that (some) would never truly understand.. An amazing artist I feel is an understatement.. It goes beyond that.. and that's why I will always be a true fan.. Not a single song that I dislike.. I favor some over others but I love all the music Green Day Composes.. Side Projects and all.. I never had an interest in becoming a Guitarist/Singer until my childhood friend had me listen to "Dookie".. Forever changed my life.. I grabbed up the first 2 albums and every album since.. Green Day is #1 for me.. Always.. And Billie.. I can't thank you enough for inspiring me to be who I Truly am.. That's from the heart man.. Thank You.. 🤘🤘🤘❤️❤️❤️
I love him and so happy he got sober for himself, his kids and his beautiful wife. They deserve him at his best and he deserves all the happiness in the world.
3:01 Billie's sobering self reflection audio on top of the video of him raging out, screaming into a micophone, smashing his guitar and flipping the camera off is a hilarious contrast
Ehhhh not really. I think if it were trimmed down to an album, maybe two, it'd be A LOT better. There are some absolute winners on those albums (Stay The Night, Brutal Love, 99 Revolutions, Nuclear Family, Lazy Bones), but it's also got a lot of filler and not so great songs either. Don't tell me Nightlife or Lady Cobra are some overlooked masterpieces because that's arguably the furthest thing from the truth.
@@richieb1125hahahaha ok, here we can appreciate the typical comment of a sad geek who usually says "if it doesn't sound the same as in its beginnings it's garbage"
I think not many people know that there's a whole documentary about the album, which was pretty fun. I think it was a pre-order bonus, but I don't know if it ever got an own release after that.
No shit really??? I MUST get it. it's so fucked up what he was going through and it's an unappreciated work of art I love all of green day and trilogy is one of my favorites idgaf I love pretty much every song uno especially is a masterpiece 🩵💕🩵 it has so many love songs it's like sweet and badass and dreamy I love how danceable it is it's partly feeling
Personally thought the demos where better because I similar vibe to their kerplunk/ slappy hours albums/eps. Which are some of my favorites of all their material because of the rawness, the riffs and guitar solos
i can definitely understand. Whenever it happens that i'm writing a song, it's like a self-medicated therapy session and while it can be very healthy to look introspectively about a certain issue every once in a while, doing it to the point of exhaustion has to be devastating for one's psyche. For what it's worth, i really love the Trilogy, maybe they're not my favorite Green Day albums, but the quality and dedication is not lost on me and i hope they bring back a few songs if it's not too hard on Billie Joe.
Since I first started listening to Green Day I’ve always found alot within the lyrics that initially just made me feel like I wasn’t the only one. I found a whole world on the other side of it getting into the punk scene and after about 30yrs nearly everything in my life somehow touches on that connection, even things like jobs bc you find them through friends you met through the scene or you do something you learned form someone there or whatever. But now I’ve come back to this point of feeling lost and alone only it’s much worse than that feeling at 12 when I know I’ll be outta here eventually and this time it’s all backwards-doing right every step and having that somehow twisted yet the extremely wrong and under no circumstances ever ok thing someone else did beginning this domino effect be washed away somehow made the bad guy without ANY explanation despite asking over and over. Anyway, all that has gotten me to this point where again I feel isolated and spend too much time alone. (Despite being screwed over by someone I should have been able to rely on undoubtedly having been promised throughout my entire life that if anything exactly like this ever happened I could always count on that..😢) I do still have a few right ppl who I met through this scene who’re solid af fortunately some people never have a single person like that. Still I’m isolated…. I swear there’s a point related to this video….. So when BillieJoe starts talking about being in your own head writing lyrics 24 hours a day-that’s where I’m at…. Always has been. I grew up around writers and have always written. That was the natural way to go for me but generally I’ve had someone around; seen or talked to someone regularly often had a partner in crime I’d write with -lyrics and music. If I got stuck, they’d help and they actually understood what I was writing-sometimes even when I didn’t quite know yet; it was just coming out. The quote he said here was spot on. I had to go back and do a screen recording so I could hear it again later thinking that’s gonna help. The next part about being surprised you survived--that so many y times over but usually not me ready to jump so much thigh maybe a couple times but just insane unbelievable stories of not believe if they hadn’t happened to me. I’ve been told to write about some and honestly believe I’d have to lie to make people believe it was the truth -as in toning it down bc the real truth is so insane. Standing at the edge though -being vulnerable and giving for so long and trying to forgive and forget and move forward--this time, I didn’t jump. I was pushed and my fingers peeled off the cliff as I held on.
When Billie said "I'm not Justin Beiber mother f$%^&*." I felt that. No you're not Billie and even though he was struggling seeing him smash his guitar was so rock n roll. Glad to see him make it out of this time period but also the trilogy is wonderful.
Honestly, I love the Trilogy. There are some absolute bangers in it, some nice songs. I am very biased when it comes to Green Day, I admit, but I just love all of their songs. Like, starting from At the Library and ending at Graffitia (and of course, the two new songs). They're my favorite band, they're my band. I am confident that I can find something great in every single one of their songs.
Dirty Rotten Bastards is a good song, personally i really like Fuck Time, Stray Heart, Let Yourself Go, Kill The DJ, Stay The Night, 99 Revolution, Nuclear Family and basically the whole trilogy album
UNO DOS TRE is one of my favorite Green Day era’s by far. It’s just down and dirty rock and roll songs. That’s it. Sure, it’s not an epic like AI or 21CBD, but that’s alright. We don’t need that every album.
I'm hoping that some trilogy songs will make the cut for future club shows, at the very least. As time has gone on, it seems that more fans are looking back fondly on the trilogy (maybe bc FOAM did not meet expectations). Some of their, IMO, best songs are on those albums.
Tre' is a freaking masterpiece! SO underrated! I've personally got it just below Dookie, American Idiot and Warning at #4 on my rankings! Uno is really good too! Dos is my least favorite of the three and just above Father Of All down at the bottom of my rankings but I respect it for what it was. Dos is great compared to FOAM, lol!
Still think iheartradio were just as much in the wrong here - why would you tell one of the biggest bands a third of the way through one of their biggest hits 'oh you guys need to wrap it up'? If they had have given a signal before the song or after to wrap up that would have been more understandable, but right in the middle? 🤨
To put it in simple terms: people just didn´t get the trilogy. The majority of teens and tweens who listened to Green Day back in the day (2012) had no clue about dirty 60´s Rock´n Roll. The people who do have a clue and appreciate that kind of music don´t listen to Green Day because Greeen Day are "too young" for their generation as a band. If the Trilogy would have come out in the 60´s, it would have been a banger writing musical history racing to No. 1 on the charts for weeks. You wanna understand the trilogy? Get to a dirty, funky small club, get the DJ to play that stuff and get fuckin wasted. Have the time of your life that night, sober up the next fiew days, listen back to the Trilogy. You´ll love it.
The crowd was so awful and lame for that performance I have no idea why anyone blamed him for acting that way. Watch the entire set, He worked his ass off and got nothing in response from them. I 1000% would have acted the same way if I performed for 30 minutes to such an awful audience then they cut my set short for usher.
Uno and Tre are solid albums, much better than Father of All and in my opinion better than Rev Radio (as an album) to me, only half of that album is great, but the great songs on Rev Radio are fantastic. But Uno is better

I love him and so happy he got sober for himself, his kids and his beautiful wife. They deserve him at his best and he deserves all the happiness in the world.
Everyone focuses on the fact he destroyed the guitar and called out jb but nobody realised what he was goimg through at the time
I don’t get the hate for the trilogy. It came out in the cusp of my 21st birthday, it was a good soundtrack for that part of my life.
He was taking Klonopin and Xanax with drinking? That makes so much sense now lol
What’s the source of this interview/documentary?? I haven’t seen it before.

Whenever it happens that i'm writing a song, it's like a self-medicated therapy session and while it can be very healthy to look introspectively about a certain issue every once in a while, doing it to the point of exhaustion has to be devastating for one's psyche. For what it's worth, i really love the Trilogy, maybe they're not my favorite Green Day albums, but the quality and dedication is not lost on me and i hope they bring back a few songs if it's not too hard on Billie Joe.
Since I first started listening to Green Day I’ve always found alot within the lyrics that initially just made me feel like I wasn’t the only one. I found a whole world on the other side of it getting into the punk scene and after about 30yrs nearly everything in my life somehow touches on that connection, even things like jobs bc you find them through friends you met through the scene or you do something you learned form someone there or whatever. But now I’ve come back to this point of feeling lost and alone only it’s much worse than that feeling at 12 when I know I’ll be outta here eventually and this time it’s all backwards-doing right every step and having that somehow twisted yet the extremely wrong and under no circumstances ever ok thing someone else did beginning this domino effect be washed away somehow made the bad guy without ANY explanation despite asking over and over. Anyway, all that has gotten me to this point where again I feel isolated and spend too much time alone. (Despite being screwed over by someone I should have been able to rely on undoubtedly having been promised throughout my entire life that if anything exactly like this ever happened I could always count on that..😢) I do still have a few right ppl who I met through this scene who’re solid af fortunately some people never have a single person like that. Still I’m isolated….
I swear there’s a point related to this video…..
So when BillieJoe starts talking about being in your own head writing lyrics 24 hours a day-that’s where I’m at….
Always has been. I grew up around writers and have always written. That was the natural way to go for me but generally I’ve had someone around; seen or talked to someone regularly often had a partner in crime I’d write with -lyrics and music. If I got stuck, they’d help and they actually understood what I was writing-sometimes even when I didn’t quite know yet; it was just coming out.
The quote he said here was spot on. I had to go back and do a screen recording so I could hear it again later thinking that’s gonna help.
The next part about being surprised you survived--that so many y times over but usually not me ready to jump so much thigh maybe a couple times but just insane unbelievable stories of not believe if they hadn’t happened to me. I’ve been told to write about some and honestly believe I’d have to lie to make people believe it was the truth -as in toning it down bc the real truth is so insane.
Standing at the edge though -being vulnerable and giving for so long and trying to forgive and forget and move forward--this time, I didn’t jump. I was pushed and my fingers peeled off the cliff as I held on.
Billie was fucked up. I'm glad he got the help that he desperately needed.
When Billie said "I'm not Justin Beiber mother f$%^&*." I felt that.
No you're not Billie and even though he was struggling seeing him smash his guitar was so rock n roll. Glad to see him make it out of this time period but also the trilogy is wonderful.
And then the song dilemma comes out
Honestly, I love the Trilogy. There are some absolute bangers in it, some nice songs. I am very biased when it comes to Green Day, I admit, but I just love all of their songs. Like, starting from At the Library and ending at Graffitia (and of course, the two new songs). They're my favorite band, they're my band. I am confident that I can find something great in every single one of their songs.
What's this from?
Dirty Rotten Bastards is a good song, personally i really like Fuck Time, Stray Heart, Let Yourself Go, Kill The DJ, Stay The Night, 99 Revolution, Nuclear Family and basically the whole trilogy album
The trilogy is my favourite green day album next to revolution radio, warning and father of all
UNO DOS TRE is one of my favorite Green Day era’s by far. It’s just down and dirty rock and roll songs. That’s it. Sure, it’s not an epic like AI or 21CBD, but that’s alright. We don’t need that every album.
when was this made
If The Beatles' White Album would have been a great single album as George Martin said, these 3 albums SERIOUSLY needed to be a single album
Beautiful yea it is what it is. Rock on BJ
There's some great songs on those albums. I listen to demolicious more than the actual trilogy though, i just prefer its raw sound
Where is this from?
Dos and tre have some hidden gems in em, but uno doesnt have a single bad Song imo, simple but powerful album
Where did you get this audio from?
Welcome to My Panic (a free audible audiobook by Billie)
I know how you feel Billie. I'm trapped in my own mind. I cant get any sleep anymore. I'm starting to have angry outbursts too.
Honestly the one minute rant and guitar smash was the most rock n roll thing he has done since american idiot.
Trilogy is the best green day has come with brought back the insomniac vibes and it was payed for in blood ❤
I didn't get insomniac vibes from those albums.
@@mobilesuitjesse to each their own my friend
It’s s plain as day that Billie/Green Day have erased the trilogy off the face of the earth! Not even one song gets played anymore!!
Wrong, they still play songs off these three.
@@sluice only recently they’ve started playing ‘oh love’
when was last time before that???? Hella mega? No!! Rev rad tour? No!!!! I rest my case
@@trickhotspot9452they did play nuclear family and amy during the rev rad tour.
I'm hoping that some trilogy songs will make the cut for future club shows, at the very least. As time has gone on, it seems that more fans are looking back fondly on the trilogy (maybe bc FOAM did not meet expectations). Some of their, IMO, best songs are on those albums.
@@trickhotspot9452They played some trilogy songs during the Rev rad tour, not often but they still played some
It's better to have 10 great songs than 100 good ones in my opinion
Tre' is a freaking masterpiece! SO underrated! I've personally got it just below Dookie, American Idiot and Warning at #4 on my rankings! Uno is really good too! Dos is my least favorite of the three and just above Father Of All down at the bottom of my rankings but I respect it for what it was. Dos is great compared to FOAM, lol!
The trilogy was my favorite Green Day music idc what anyone says
Nah that was jaded part 2
Writting is hard
Green day made 1 good album in 1994.
Booo
Still think iheartradio were just as much in the wrong here - why would you tell one of the biggest bands a third of the way through one of their biggest hits 'oh you guys need to wrap it up'? If they had have given a signal before the song or after to wrap up that would have been more understandable, but right in the middle? 🤨
1000%
To put it in simple terms: people just didn´t get the trilogy. The majority of teens and tweens who listened to Green Day back in the day (2012) had no clue about dirty 60´s Rock´n Roll. The people who do have a clue and appreciate that kind of music don´t listen to Green Day because Greeen Day are "too young" for their generation as a band. If the Trilogy would have come out in the 60´s, it would have been a banger writing musical history racing to No. 1 on the charts for weeks.
You wanna understand the trilogy? Get to a dirty, funky small club, get the DJ to play that stuff and get fuckin wasted. Have the time of your life that night, sober up the next fiew days, listen back to the Trilogy. You´ll love it.
@404TVfr Did you try it?
@404TVfr wrong opinion.
The crowd was so awful and lame for that performance I have no idea why anyone blamed him for acting that way. Watch the entire set, He worked his ass off and got nothing in response from them. I 1000% would have acted the same way if I performed for 30 minutes to such an awful audience then they cut my set short for usher.
i really love the trilogy.
Uno and Tre are solid albums, much better than Father of All and in my opinion better than Rev Radio (as an album) to me, only half of that album is great, but the great songs on Rev Radio are fantastic. But Uno is better
Dos is clear.
