22. The Strangers (a band at our school that only briefly existed) - time of your life (Green Day cover)

I first heard about the Foxboro Hot Tubs this past Christmas - my aunt told me about them and let me listen to the six songs they had available at the time. They were awesome, and we both speculated the same thing - that Foxboro Hot Tubs was actually Green Day.

It was hard to think it was anyone else. The vocals are distinctly Billie Joe Armstrong's. The drumming is right on par with Tre Cool's style. And they have been known to have secret side projects before (ie. The Network). Soon enough, the band put out a CD of 12 songs, five of which were previously available on their website, and seven new tracks. I was lucky enough to purchase it recently.

The album starts out powerful with the track 'Stop Drop And Roll!!!'. The band's sound is reminiscent of 60s rock. As is the album packaging and artwork. The title track feels like one big hook, never stopping, just two minutes and twenty four seconds of intensity.

Second track, 'Mother Mary', includes some of the religious imagery found on Green Day's latest album <i>American Idiot</i>. A bit more laid back than 'Stop Drop and Roll!!!', and has a great swing beat.

Third track, 'Ruby Room'. Incredibly catchy, you'll find yourself singing it all day. Not much else to say beside that, unfortunately. Fourth track is called 'Red Tide'. Slowest and most mellow song yet, and stays like that the whole time. Nice little break from what we've previously seen from the record.

'Broadway'. One of the new tracks for the CD release. It sounds like old Green Day material actually. Very nice. Lots of guitar. Lots and lots of guitar. Wow. 'She's a Saint Not a Celebrity' returns back to the 60s sound that we heard at the beginning of the album. Another catchy track that you will have stuck in your head, but not in the bad way.

'Sally'. Good sounding track, but nothing really special, in my personal opinion. It has some great drumming, but there isn't much that makes it stand out in my eyes. Er, ears.

'Alligator'. My favorite song off the record. Sounds...robotic. It's a great, catchy, fun song. And it mentioned space invaders. That always makes for a good track. The vocals sound really great, and fit in with the guitar perfectly.

'The Pedestrian'. Also sounds like old Green Day stuff. I don't have a problem with it, but I think it's kind of odd they didn't stick with the 60s style that worked so well at the beginning of the album. '27th Ave Shuffle'. A blend of old Green Day sound and the new Foxboro sound. I like it. It's fun and catchy. Nice use of background vocals.

"Dark Side of Night'. This one moves far from the sound of the other tracks. Acoustic guitar rather than electric, large large of the snare, vocals are almost always accompanied with other voices, and there are flutes. It's not bad, just an odd shift from the other tracks. The last track, 'Pieces Of Truth', rounds off the album in a very nice fashion, complete with a saxophone solo.

Overall, whether you're a fan of Green Day or not, you'll enjoy the album. Personally, I'd give it a <b>4/5</b>.

Fri 28 Sep – Fall Out Boy, Jack's Mannequin, Gyroscope

Another 6 months down the line, and another Fall Out Boy concert. Back in February at Vodafone Arena, I would have doubted anyone who said they'd be back by the end of the year, and yet, here we are, watching in mild awe as the band are back.

To tell the truth, I was about half as excited this time around, whether that be a result of my least favourite venue I've been to (Festival Hall), or perhaps my lack of ground floor tickets this time around. But as I walked through the doors into the Hall, the familiar Vodafone feeling welled up again.

As I took my seat (mainly because those 10 year olds stole all the ground floor tickets before me), I didn't have to wait long before getting the first of two supports. Jack's Mannequin took the stage, surprisingly to me, as I thought for sure that Gyroscope, the token Aussie band would be first. Several people have told me that frontman Andrew McMahon gets drunk before shows, though I can say I was oblivious to the fact as I sat, watching this man tear up the piano. That might well have been the most impressive display on a singular instrument I've seen to date. Jack's Mannequin tore through their set, playing favourites Dark Blue, MFEO and my personal favourite Bruised, as McMahon often played one handed, ran around the stage, and generally assaulted his piano sexually.

It was over a little too soon for me, and I'd love to see the band again. Onward but unfortunately not upward to Gyroscope. After a short technical delay, Gyroscope took the stage. Much like Jack's Mannequin, I knew very little about the band or its music, but I was open to anything really. Gyroscope's set was, frankly, disappointing to me, a non-fan, with none of their songs really sticking (note: this may be a result of the 'support curse', me anticipating the main act), however the band slightly redeemed itself by having its frontman Daniel Sanders stage dive several times and crawling around onstage. Sanders' final song dive and guitar solo from the top of the crowd was highly enjoyable.

By now I was pumped for the main set. To the dulcet tones of Build Me Up Buttercup, Patrick Stump, Joseph Trohman, Andrew Hurley and Peter Wentz marched onto the stage. I have rarely heard a noise so piercing in all my few years (apart from the band's final act; read on) as the band kicked into its now trademark opener Thriller. Following it up was the most known of all Take This to Your Grave songs, Grand Theft Autumn. Even so, the majority of the crowd knew few to no lyrics, but tapped along all the same. An Akon cover was inserted into the set (Don't Matter, I'm not a fan) before kicking the crowd up a notch with singalong favourite Sugar, We're Goin' Down. Of All The Gin Joints was performed wonderfully, as was Hum Hallelujah, before Chicago Is So Two Years Ago got the hardcore fan crowd excited. Chicago is one of those songs you have to be lucky to hear, as the band seldom performs it, and I almost lost my voice on that song alone. The song lacked the Justin Pierre of Motion City Soundtrack finesse towards the end though.

From here, Pete announced that everyone would know the lyrics to the next song they played (as no one did for Chicago). This was not entirely true, I am slightly ashamed to say I didn't. Green Day's Basket Case resounded across the venue, as Patrick's vocals easily bettered Billie Joe Armstrong's in my mind (I'm not a fan of Green Day at all).

My least favourite song from Infinity on High followed, with I'm Like A Lawyer making most jump and sing. Sixteen Candles was amazing, and one of my favourite Fall Out Boy songs of all time. This time, Pete urged people to scream when they recognised the riff to the next song, but not to yell it out. The seat next to me wrongly identified it as Thriller, but most could hear Michael Jackson's Beat It. The cover was a real highlight of the set, even if Patrick's voice, by this point in the set, failed to adequately match Jackson's.

Following Carpal Tunnel (another highlight) was a short interlude by the band, who played an excerpt of Panic! At the Disco's I Write Sins Not Tragedies to illustrate Australian radio's open willingness to play "Goddamn". Pete would later proclaim "fuck them" to his signees, as well as several other Fueled By Ramen labelmates. Following his point about "Goddamn"ing, the band quickly followed up by easily the most recognisable song in the set, Arms Race. There were 6 year olds singing this song, all the way up to their 40 year old parents. It was really the only song in the set to properly bridge such a gap. Thnks Fr Th Mmrs followed, either before or after their mostly obese roadie urged us to scream "Fall. Out. Boy." across the venue (as the guy I sat next to duely noted, "FUCK OFF! You're a Dirty wannabe!").

As the band took the stage again, for what I consider an encore, though obviously as planned as ever, The Take Over graced our ears. Following was a great cover type thing (as Patrick did vocals) of Timbaland's One & Only, which few knew the words to. It was definitely a highlight for me, as I went hoping they'd play the song. Dance, Dance was the follow up, and sent most girls swooning, and the occasional guy, before the band played a quick cover of The Power of Love. It was poorly executed in my opinion. The final song in the set was long time fan favourite Saturday which all but destroyed any vocal chords I had left.

Before they left the stage, the band thanked the audience, and Pete attempted a cultural reference with "The snake in the long grass" or something, which made no sense to me (did anyone else get this?). As I mentioned before, one 'incident' would be louder than the crowd's din as they entered, and this followed, as Wentz removed his shirt, and every girl in the venue screamed in a way that has rarely been observed since Beatlemania hit 40 years ago. I realised then that a lot of the audience paid $10 to hear the band play their set, and $60 to see Wentz remove his shirt and strut around stage. It's a sad fact that was the only negative I can find with the band's show (apart from a lack of Grenade Jumper and other TTTYG favourites, which I hear they are playing, albeit sparingly)

All in all, it was a fantastic show, despite my dislike of the venue, and having wire ledge guards blocking the band from my view a lot of the night. The set was better composed than the Vodafone show in February, however lacking in Take This To Your Grave songs it was. Patrick's voice began as incredibly as ever, but, as it is widely known, decreased in quality as the night when on, though I doubt many would notice or care. If they didn't have their eyes on Wentz, they had their ears on the music, and were enjoying the night enough either way to be distracted.

Thanks for getting to the end of this. I doubt you read the whole thing, but if you did, congratulations. You managed to sit through my bullshit :)
