    Cool mash-up there. I'm so stoked they played Scattered though. That my absolute favorite Green Day deep-cut, and I saw them play it once in Atlanta in like ~2011ish? Something like that. Anyway, great song.

    That Nimrod deep-cut, though... Dying for a Green Day tour at this point.

    For what it's worth (admittedly very little), Green Day has been a four-piece since 2012.

    He's been recovering from tonsil cancer. It does raise the question as to how involved he'll be in the next album/tour cycle, though.

    GREEN DUDES BEST GREEN DAY PODCAST Prestigious

    He was in some press pictures for the trilogy. I just get the impression he doesn't like the spotlight. Also I believe he's recovered from cancer and just put out an awesome record with his side project, California.

    But regardless, I was there for this and it was bananas.

    I'm still holding out hope for some new Network, Foxboro Hot Tubs or Pinhead Gunpowder at some point.
