PaulWarning Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Just watched Green Day at Reading, it's on teletext, not a bad thing to do, play a short 'secret' gig on a smaller stage, did they only do half an hour? but I do wish Billy Jo would cut out that tiresome A O crap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Nice quick set, full of energy, but yeah, that A O stuff is wearing a bit thin. Mike Dirnts stack of Fender Amps looked very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Apple Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 (tries not to look uncool).. So, er, what does A O mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulWarning Posted August 30, 2012 Author Share Posted August 30, 2012 haven't got a clue, anybody know where it comes from? perhaps I'll start another thread asking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deanoet Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 AFAIK It was an hour set originally, BBC Three did the 30 mins highlights I would think there would be some poor mobile footage of the full thing on youtube by now though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zero9 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 One of the few 'watchable' acts at Reading this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisba Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I'm not really a fan, but, my god, they were slick, tight and very, very good at what they do. I haven't watched everything from Reading, but they were the most professional outfit I saw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrtcat Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Green Day and The Foo Fighters were hands down the best of the festival. There's definately a reason they're the biggest names there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I like them, but not exactly a fan either, got a couple of CDs, unlikely I`d ever go to see them, but from what I saw of Reading they were hands down the best.

LeftyBiskit Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I've seen G.D twice -both at Old Trafford(Lancs.CC) Brilliant each time,but for the life of me I still cant get what all the A O bollox was all about. just thought I 'd chuck a 2p into the mix.

Spike Vincent Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Can't stand 'em,but they're tight as tight can be,andI'll talk technical with Mike Dirnt again any day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
