This was also the hottest weekend of the year, because the United Kingdom was in the middle of a heatwave, with temperatures reaching 33 degrees Celsius. Fourteen of the twenty songs performed at these shows were included on the disc; missing out were the tracks " Jaded", " Knowledge", " She", "Maria", "Homecoming" and " We Are the Champions". The interviews really got in deep, and made it to where you can kinda get to know the band a little better.

And it contained none of the danger and fun that Billie Joe Armstrong had congratulated himself for bringing back to rock’n’roll during his acceptance of the Best Rock Album Grammy for American Idiot. Bullet in a Bible was released as a double-LP set on November 10, 2009, as part of the band's 2009 vinyl re-release campaign.But by “Wake Me Up When September Ends” it was unclear what Idiot was supposed to mean in the first place. In theory Green Day’s still singing to those suburban mudslingers, the ’90s kids who grew up to find only apathy, fear, and nothingness beyond the fast food wrappers and blaring televisions. Green Day have released most of the videos from this concert on their YouTube page except for " Boulevard of Broken Dreams", " Wake Me Up When September Ends", and the other songs which have been omitted from the album release. Notes: Released on CD and DVD, it captures the band playing two of the biggest shows in their career on the American Idiot tour. That’s what the band's new CD/DVD set Bullet in a Bible documents, recounting their show this past summer at the National Bowl in Milton Keynes.

The set is loud, and Tré cool’s bass drum often resounds like he’s banging a huge pedal on the side of Texas Stadium.

Now here's hoping there's not a repress coming from a hypothetical American Idiot 20th anniversary celebration of some sort.

But here’s Bullet in a Bible just in time for the holidays, the commercialistic addendum to Idiot's supposed apathetic anthems. All lyrics are written by Billie Joe Armstrong; all music is composed by Green Day, except where noted No. The perfect punchy low end with a vast soundstage and complementary, but not overbearing, crowd noise. The record still had its thematic scope, and subtitled set pieces, but with the singles played to death it was starting to sound really, really flat.They might have meant to beat against the Head Redneck’s agenda, might have wanted to bury a punk rock pipe bomb at the intersection between populist politics and the Blue Collar Comedy Tour. Bullet in a Bible is a live album by American rock band Green Day, released on November 15, 2005, by Reprise Records. More than a decade later, their superstardom is a mascara-clouded mess of sloganeering, middle age, and punk rock lip service, and the firebrand moments in 2004’s American Idiot diminish with every millionth unit shifted. The band was supported by Jimmy Eat World, Taking Back Sunday, and Hard-Fi during their American Idiot world tour. Back then they smirked at the world from underneath green hair dye, and goaded suburban children into gleeful mud fights.
