fuck yeah. best Green Day cover. Do you have a pedal or just that crate half stack? Cause I absolutely love your tone. I know alot of it is the guitar, but I find it hard to get a tone that perfect with my billie jr. and vox cab. Sounds dam good.
Sweet!!!!!! Fantastic job guys! ~Drummer is pro ~Bassist is great, and good singing, but has to move around more ;D ~Singing and guitar is really awesome! Seriously, excellent job.
way way way way way way way way way way way way way way way way way way better than any band on youtube guaranteed and my only advice is to write ur own songs u guys look like ur havin fun ur together nobody is out of tempo and once again u look like ur havin fun so go for it
Amazing you guys! What's awesome is that Mike and Billie started playing this song at about your age! Freakin' great vocals by the way Billie Joe Jr ;D
I really like to see people play really old songs by them instead of all their recent hits everyone already knows, and you guys played it really well none the less lol
It does kind of sound like the 94' Woodstock version. It also sounds like them as high school seniors perfrorming at their school back in 1990. I was born in 1990 and this sound is a fucking classic.
Great cover but it sounds like to copied Green Day to much. I realize that's the point but you sound like you are trying to imitate Billie Joe's voice when you slide on the syllables Mi----ind.
AH im so jealous of you guys....its so hard to find a band of ppl that wanna play green day songs, or that are even good enough to do it this well...I'd totally join your band if I could ;) haha
Whoever the vocalist is, he reminds of of Paul Weller, from the mod/punk band the Jam. He sings a lot like him, the way he looks down on the chords and he actually looks like him. You do know who the Jam is do you? Nice cover guys.
Holy crap, people say I sing just like billie joe, but I can't tell the difference with this kid! AND he can play the solos! U guys are simply amazing. Keep it up!
can you make a vid in where you explain the licks you use for the solo? if you i will be thankful for it for years!!!! btw i know its improvisation but still if i improvise i know the scales where i improvise on and the licks so can you teach me the ones you used?
Try searching for videos that teach you Chuck Berry songs like "Johnny B. Goode" because most of Billie Joe's solos like the on here on Paper Lanterns come from those early Rock N' Roll types. Really, I learned the scales all on my own after checking out Johnny B. Goode's intro. Billie loves that.
ok i have gone all across youtube looking at all these horrible covers of green day andfinally i cross over you guys and i am extreamly glad cause you guys are good and alot of people will see this and learn from it good job!
yh this was really good and the sound of that Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Jr was just perfect. i cant wait 2 get the Guitar but hav to wait until Christmas 2010
i am very impressed with this cover ^.^..many covers suck..even the guitar covers suck and i find it pathetic how people cant play songs like "brain stew," and still post it on youtube. But very good..do you guys do any originals?
fucking awesome cover
