Green Day is a punk rock band (I love more the cinema but i know very much of music cause I'm an actor, filmmaker and musician of the streets and Green Day are the best band on the punk genre) this amazing band born on the 85' and on the 91' comes whit a punk album call ''1.039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hours'' whit a combination of the guitars and voices of Billie Joe and the bass of Mike Dirnt until the drums on ''1.039/Smoothed out Slappy Hours'' are by another drummer (that as an apprentice of Mr. Tre' Cool) that isn't sound like now is good later on the 92' comes whit ''Kerplunk!'' whit Tre on the drums and whit a sound better than the first that makes that Warner is interesting on this great band and comes whit the resurrection of the punk music on the album ''Dookie'' an amazing punk sound and won a Grammy for Best Alternative Album, later comes whit ''Insomniac'' an album of punk rock that is more concerted on the sound and no on the lyrics later comes whit a... strange album of (in my opinion) ska-punk for including another's musicians that is not so good call ''Nimrod'' later comes whit an album of punk, punk rock and ska-punk call ''Warning'' that is so good likes is bad later comes the recompilations (''International Superhits!'' and ''Sheninigans'') but whens Billie Joe on the 2003 is arrested is so f*cking angry whit the politic of U.S.A. whit ''American Idiot'' and is won on the Grammys for Best Rock Album and Best Disc, this album of punk rock and powerpop is a ''f*ck you'' for all the motherf*ckers politics and finality this album (also nominated on the Grammys) ''bullet In A Bible'' that is the great recompilation of the best of one of the best bands of all times and best on the genre this is the recompilation of something that is part of the humanity that is that this album a concert of one part of the humanity
I went to this concert on the first date (18th June), and that was probably one of the, no, THE best event I've ever been to. So imagine my excitement when I got this DVD/CD in the post this morning. Now imagine my disappointment when I watched it and found it a badly-directed, chopped-up affair devoid of anything that made it all great in the first place. I'm not sure how or why, but this went wrong somewhere. The DVD features footage from both dates, making it inconsistent, and there's an interview in between each song. Very nice, but couldn't we have had them separately or something? The camera angles are generally poorly chosen, and the promised audience interviews, while funny, are very short. These might seem like minor gripes, but they all add up. If you're considering buying this DVD hoping to relive fond memories of the concert, go ahead. Just don't expect too much from it like I did.
To me this... documentary was one of the best i've ever seen about Green Day!!!!! The footage of the concerts was awesome. I didn't realize that Green Day was this loved until I saw this documentary. When they played Wake Me Up When September Ends and Billie Joe's voice was breaking up because of emotions, it almost brought tears to my eyes.I liked Green Day's choices for songs to play. Actually I was surprised that they played Brain Stew. But I would be very satisfied with this documentary even if Green Day didn't play my favorite songs because I like almost every song by them anyways. So to make a long story short, this documentary was very well made and I enjoyed every second of it.10/10
This show is amazing!!! Bullet in a bible is the first ever official DVD to be distributed by Green Day. Green Day puts on a rock production filled with pyrotechnics, unbelievable energy, and nonstop action that would surprise even the most loyal green day fan. The concert takes place at Milton Keynes bowl in the U.K. in front of 65,000 fans, where only few other rock bands like The Rolling Stones and U2 have had sold out shows. The DVD features over 100 minutes of exclusive performance, behind-the-scenes footage, and candid interviews with each band member. It is definitely something every Green Day or Punk Rock fan needs to watch!!
