For all of the whining and upstart statements of the bitter Deit Heimley and the bemused inklings of young Alexander - I gotta say that there have been very few live shows that kicked more ass than Green Day's thrust of penetrable punk that annihilated Cedar Rapids on Wednesday night.
Got some pics...
Hol and Dan - pre-drive
Josh - pre-80's
Very excited to ride in the car!
Holly with squinting issues
Dan - focused and ready to kick it (... really)
My clever way to let you know "whassup!"
Our parking spot!
Hol is still having keeping-eyes-open issues - Josh is confused by elevator
Dan realizing he is standing in piss
Almost there!
Oops - no cameras allowed... returning to car.
Dan cherishes that finger
Post show - we all survived (look how sweaty me is!)
Don'tcha want to hit him when he poses like that!
For all of the bitches... it ruled!
S'all for now - we can run through the set list later.
YO!

Josh Pre-80's--Classic!
Green Day's live performance was by far one of the most amazing things I have witnessed. Well except for Jed transforming from Fat bald guy to Skinny bald guy in less than a year.
Well, I'm glad our man had fun. I don't see the allure myself, but all kidding aside, it's good to see he enjoyed himself.
I do admit to having a modest chuckle at Deit's response, however.
Even though there are far more egregious musical atrocities being committed on a daily basis. (New Found Glory and the like, I'm looking at you...)
I thik Deit and Kern should hook up! They could sit in a cabin in New Hampshire discussing the stomach churning qualities of Paris Hilton's new eye shadow and how Richard Ford would kick Douglas Adam's ass up and down the flood - while knitting sweaters.
I would like to say, I wouldn't use Richard Ford and Douglas Adams in any sort of hypothetical literary cage match. It's apples and oranges, really. However, I might get excited about the prospects of a cage match involving Russell Banks, John Updike, and Richard Ford.
Also, let it be noted forthwith:
The Kern does not knit.
In my old age, I have come to tone down my opinions about matters such as Green Day and the state of music. I've brought it down from unabashedly vitriolic to charmingly crochety in five short years.
Perhaps one day I can be the Andy Rooney of my generation...?
Ok, probably not. But I think I could do a lot with a job like that...
Boy - you two have culture snob trick down pat. Ya need some more cognac for your snifters?
Cripes - acid jazz...
I think I resent that remark, King Jed. Wait, no, perhaps I resemble it...not sure. I'll get back to you.
Oh, I forgot to remark about Ford v Updike. Ford may be younger, but I think Updike is kind of scrappy.
Let's get ready to Ruuuuuumbllllle!
