This is definitely an interesting concept.. I found a video that was made, at the Green Day concert at MSG, of fans making Haikus about Green Day... http://blogs.msg.com/themonitor/2009/07/31/green-day-fans-wax-poetic-no-really-watch-the-fancam/ Some of them are pretty good can anyone think of better ones??

Anybody remember the contest where Tre was giving away his bone spur to the person who wrote the best haiku? I wonder what happened with that.

Yeah, in the early 2000's when the band used to do audio messages on greenday.com Tre said he had a bone spur removed from his knee and jokingly said that he was going to give it away. Then a bunch of people really wanted a chunk of Tre, so he said that you had to write a haiku for a chance to win, and that he would pick the winner. I don't remember what it had to be about, or if anybody ever won, I just remember listening to the message about the contest.

Me too, I never saved them because I had dial up back then and it took too long to download them. I think somebody saved all of the Billie Joe messages though, I've seen them posted somewhere. They'd always post those pictures to every now and then, of like the band in the studio, or that time Billie cut Mike's hair.
