![]() ![]() I have heard complaints from some about the speedy camera angles and extreme editing and directing of the DVD. Previously, I thought that only bands as inspired as The Who (and mixed with the power of the “old days”) could pull off a rock opera, much less a Punk Rock Opera! Not only did Armstrong, Dirnt, and Cool record the best anti-war punk rock opera, they executed it with the ease of true thespians trained for the stage! These guys are really clever, and have brilliant minds for marketing from the surface and deep down. Upon watching the DVD portion, I found from the snippets that are intertwined in the concert that the image of the bullet in a bible actually came from a war museum visited by the band, wherein a bullet was actually lodged in a bible from a past war. I suspected that some, more sensitive folk would get their panties in a ruffle thinking (without even looking deeper) that “Bullet in a Bible” was somehow an anti-church type of thing. Then, when I saw that it was named “Bullet in a Bible,” I knew it would be deep and meaningful somehow. When I first saw that Green Day had finally put out a live CD/DVD, I knew it would be huge. Along the same vein, “Bullet in a Bible” is not sacrilegious. These guys have such a strong presence that they command their audience, even from the comfort of your living room couch or favorite chair.Ĭontrary to popular belief, “American Idiot” is not anti-American. ![]() Weather or not you have ever seen Green Day perform live, their production of “Bullet in a Bible” transcends the lack of intimacy that usually comes from watching live concert video recordings. For sure, the peak of the tour in support of “American Idiot!” Billie Joe Armstrong (lead vocals, guitar), Mike Dirnt (bass, vocals), and madman Tre’ Cool (drums, vocals) stepped up to the plate as one of the best punk/rock bands of our generation with this representation of their onstage energy and flawless talent. A total of over 130,000 Londoners were the luckiest to have been privy to the two in a row sold out shows that led to “Bullet in a Bible” in June 2005 at Milton Keynes National Bowl in England. The calendar is going to be released on September 26th.Ever since I heard “Dookie” back in 1994, I have had a respect for Green Day that has been set in stone with their latest release, “Bullet in a Bible.” This set comes with a fantastic live album, as well as a DVD with a video of the biggest Green Day tour, to date.
