Yeah, me too. Lana there is no need to apologise for it being massive, or even for there being two of it.

Where the F is Liz? I need details.

Haha Katy Perry went into the crowd when I saw her in February and she actually disappeared. Her legs were straight up in the air and then she surfaced about 30 seconds later and people stole her shoes.

He looks absolutely fucking terrified.

OK, the good news is this: I once again got to stare at the gorgeous-ness that is Tre because he and Mike came out and signed at the Detroit show tonight!!!!!!!!!!! Omg, and I actually have pictures this time!!!!!!!!! The show was amazing, Billie's energy and general sex appeal was unbelievable, the setlist was incredible and I can't BELIEVE how many people he pulled up on stage.

The bad news is that I missed some of the Chicago show b/c we got into a car accident and totaled our car. Holy shit I hate my life!

I promise that I will be back tomorrow, once I've slept all day, with tons of details and pictures! Ugh...I'll never get over how beautiful Tre is!!!!!!!!!

OMG. Are you okay? Sad
I mean, I'm sure that meeting Tre made up for the car wreck to at least some degree but still... *hugs*

I MUST see pictures of Tre and Mike! How exciting!! What is with Billie Joe not coming out though? He is such a diva.

God, I am so glad that you got tickets to both shows or you would have just wanted to kill yourself, haha.

We're both fine...just a little shook up. We got rear-ended and then pushed into another car and basically our car is sad and completely squished. Eli's wrist is sprained and some of his ribs hurt and I'm obscenely sore from tensing before the impact. Not to mention being traumatized by the emotional stress of trying to get to Green Day after the accident, haha. As soon as we got hit I quickly made sure Eli was completely fine and then I promptly burst into tears because I was scared...that I wouldn't be able to see Green Day, lol. Terrible, right? I honestly didn't retain much from the Chicago show because we had floor seats and because we arrived so late we were way in the back and I felt bad that Eli was in pain (we had been checked out at the hospital) and I knew we shouldn't have even been there and that I was being selfish but Eli kept insisting we should go for as long as possible. So, we just sort of stood in the back and I couldn't absorb that they were right in front of me because I kept thinking we had a four hour drive home in a rental car and I kept worrying someone was going to bump into Eli...ugh, it was terrible. We stayed for about five songs and then left. Like you said, Elle, I'm damn glad I knew I had tickets for the Detroit show because otherwise I would have been even more of a wreck!

Glad to hear you're okay Liz. How on earth did you manage to get to the show after the wreck?

The Detroit show Smile:

I don't know where to start! They played for almost two and a half hours and they played a wide range of songs. Billie was quite fired up when he came out and as usual he tried to involve the crowd as much as possible. I bet he pulled five or six people up on stage for various things. During East Jesus Nowhere he decided he needed to "save" someone so he pulled a kid out of the crowd and he kept whispering in his ear about different things he should for dramatic effect. The kid was probably about ten and his name was Joseph which Billie liked. My ovaries promptly exploded Wink He pulled a random girl from the crowd during "The Waiting Unknown" and she just sort of stood up there and waved her hands around, and, smartly, kept an arm around him as long as possible.

He grabbed another kid from the crowd to sing "Longview". He was actually really good and totally took advantage of being up on stage. Towards the end he forgot the lyrics and then Billie grabbed the microphone back and playfully kicked him off stage. Billie then pulled this girl Rosie out of the crowd after that to finish the song and she immediately gave Billie a huge hug, haha. She was nervous and forgot the words but Billie didn't seem to care. He then encouraged her to stage dive, which she looked really unsure about. Before she did it she ran over and gave Mike a big hug (smart girl) and waved at Tre, haha. I couldn't believe no one accosted Tre...that would have been my mission. Anyway, Billie also had someone come up and play his part for "Jesus of Surbubia" and then two other guys were pulled up to squirt people with water and to just generally stand there as Billie groped them Wink

Tre is obscenely blonde and as wonderfully ADD as ever. At the end of "American Euglogy" he stood up on one of the equipment cases next to his drum rise and pretended to direct the band with his drumstick. I can't tell you how many drumsticks he threw either behind his head or into the crowd. During "King For A Day" Jason Freese dressed as Michael Jackson which was interesting, haha. Billie wore his cop hat, of course, and I immediately started screaming. He came out and said, "This is the Detroit police" and everyone booed him, haha. During another song he asked for someone to give him a Detroit Tigers hat so someone from the crowd threw one at him and he put it on and said, "Green Day's from Detroit from now on." That news went over well. During "Holiday" he was out on the ramp in the crowd and he noticed someone had a crutch and he was like "Give that to me! I'll give it back" LOL...so they passed Billie this person's crutch and he danced around with it for a minute or two.

At the end of the encore Billie sang an acoustic version of "Macy's Day Parade", which was gorgeous, but before Tre and Mike left the stage, Tre ran over and tried to grab Billie's balls...guh, my brain exploded. They sounded amazing as usual and they had so much energy! Their shows never disappoint, I tell ya.

I have yet to upload my pictures so I'll be back with those and an explanation of the signing that took place. I didn't get a picture with Tre because he's effing ADD and can't/won't stand still, and the moment I did have an opportunity to take a picture with him the kid next to me said something that pissed him off and so Tre walked away from us. That kid quickly became the bane of my existence and I told him so!

I am SO excited for you! And me... in October, haha. I don't blame you for crying, I would too, what a nightmare. How gorgeous is Eli though, really. Bless his heart.

Billie Joe just seems to have mellowed right out these days, he's really giggly and silly and I just love it. I remember seeing the Warning tour and it was good but just so different, he was all punk rock and fuck authority etc and I just like him being cuddly and making everyone laugh.

Yeah, smart girl, I always like it when people go up and totally do what I would do. Did you see FBHT on Carson Daly? He pulled this girl up and she basically accosted him and wrapped herself around him, I was totally cheering her on, haha.

Gah, thanks for the report Liz. You have done well. *awards medal*

OMG. You were CLOSE. GAH. Tre's hat is adorable. What were they like, were they lovely? Did they smell nice? I am literally squeeing all over the place.

Also, Mike is looking good these days. I never was a Mike person particularly, but I totally would not kick him out of bed.
