Green Day - A Quick One (While He's Away) - (The Who) - MSG July 28th

[colleenboye]

I didn't realize Green Day had covered this, but they're the perfect band for it since they've also been exploring rock opera.

[arouska]

If someone is going to do a cover without changing much, then do it live and not release it as a single. Billy Joe Armstrong seems to understand that, if you are doing a cover but not changing anything but the vocal style (so its sounds modern) then release it as a single, its just a cheap cash in. But if you just sing it live, then its more like a tribute. I'm not a huge Green Day fan but they did do the song justice and they didn't cash in on it. (but that drummer is no Keith Moon)

[Berenueve]

@arouska he is not Keith Moon, that's for sure, but Tre Cool is maybe the best drummer of his generation.

[UFOria212]

@Berenueve Lol! That's a good one!!
