Off the top of my head, that makes sense. The open strings are critical for Brain Stew, but not St. Jimmy. So, if the goal is to maintain the original keys, that would be the best way to do it.

 

Brain Stew is all bar chords, no? I guess you couldn't have the pitch as lone if you played it in standard which is why they do it. St. Jimmy, since BJA doesn't play guitar on it, works if they play in position 1/2 step up (Billie tends to love playing open chords from what I've noticed).

 

The chorus/outro include 3 open strings as well. Which is why the open strings are critical than St Jimmy. I haven’t bothered to listen to the song or look at chord charta, but I don’t recall anything like that in St Jimmy. Any low E’s can just be played at the first fret.

 

Oops, it’s just the outro that uses the open strings.

 

Waiting on Green Day to announce their 25th anniversary edition of Warning release….

 

Gross

 

Agreed.

 

Brad you’re a nice guy you shouldn’t punish yourself like that

 

if it makes you feel any better, i skipped like 3 or 4 songs.

 

I would have skipped 10.

 

There's gotta be a studio version of "Cigarettes And Valentines" laying around somewhere.

 

Gross is gross, no matter how you spin it.

 

This ranks 4 or 5 for me in the discography but it's a super consistent album. No particular complaints with it.

 

It's still my number one. Finally picked it up on vinyl last month.

Surprised it wasn’t released with the AI 20th anniversary edition last year. Maybe they are saving it for the 25th?

 

3rd or 4th for me depending on my mood.

 

Stop being a dork.

 

Not interested in a GD comedy movie lol. Gimme some Warning25.

 

should’ve been a full length animated feature following their characters from King of the Hill

 

It's almost definitely gonna happen

 

They've been bringing out a tasty track from deep in the catalogue each night during the past few gigs. One Of My Lies, Paper Lanterns, 2000 Light Years.
