    I’d have to strain my brain to try and come up with a list of “good” songs from that trilogy.

    There’s a handful of “alright” songs but nothing good enough where I’ve actively wanted to go and revisit them in at least the last like 10 years. Like I think Nuclear Family, Dirty Rotten Bastards, 99 Revolutions, & The Forgotten are all fine. But I'm not going to battle for any of them as being "good."

    Guys, it's okay to admit there are good songs. No one's going to hurt you. We're all friends here.

    I guess I'll go in for a trilogy relisten today.

    A person with the initials S. M. talking about better ways to inflict pleasure through pain.

    The writers on this season of Chorus.fm are hacks. Pervy hacks.

    They should do a Godzilla remix of every song on the Trilogy.

    I mean I was just listing the best. I’d argue there’s maybe six songs of the triple album that aren’t good. The rest are at least good.

    Very fair, I'd say it's better than anything off FOAM but there's quite a few trilogy tracks that I enjoy more than it. I think them wanting to make it and how they executed that is more exciting than the trilogy though, if that makes any sense lol

    That’s terrible. Imagine buying a normal album, listening to it, realizing there’s only 2-3 good songs, and somehow walking away with the thought, “it’s not bad.” That cadet’s logic is NOT sound.

    I’d love to hear some Warning cuts besides Minority live someday, don’t think I ever have. I’m sure they’ve done it, but not in my presence

    The last couple tours they've been incorporating "Waiting." But other than that... Would love to see them swap out any of the acoustic or slower cuts ("21 Guns" or "Good Riddance") in favor of "Macy's Day Parade." That would rule.

    Would also love to see Church On Sunday, Castaway, and/or Deadbeat Holiday get a setlist shine at some point.

    Church on Sunday is probably my all time favorite Green Day song

    Same. This and JAR are probably tied for me.

    Get Hurt is a better TGA record than FOAM is a Green Day record but I still enjoy both.

    I'd love to see the next album being Warning-style or similar. As they age I think they have a better chance of writing songs styled like that than they do fast punk songs. FOAM was terrible.

    I saw them on the Warning tour in 2001, they played half the record (Minority, Warning, Waiting, Macy's Day Parade, Church On Sunday, Castaway).
