Just came back from seeing it (for the first time). It was effing awesome. But the real surprise was that after the show they did a Q and A with Billy Joel Armstrong! Today was a good day, finally won the lottery and got to see it on a day like this.

Haha, I'm pretty new to the forums here. But I have noticed reading them for a while now that people are really quick to be needlessly mean on them. It's pretty obvious what I meant and yes I see I made the mistake twice...but jeesh it was an honest mistake..I'll be sure to triple check my spelling next time so I don't have know-it-alls jumping down my throat. Also I know very well who I speak of if I actually go ahead and post..if I spell a name wrong I'm sorry

And also, I thought it was meaningful enough to post that he was there...its not everyday, I believe he's only made a handful of appearances, and I think its pretty cool how they stand behind the show, rather than putting their name on the marquee and leaving it at that.

It is every day, actually...every day this week. Billy Armstrong at American Idiot this week

Glad you had a good time! I went on Tuesday. HE had a lot of interesting stuff to say about the creation of the show. I wish the Q&A would have been a little more questions and a little less fawning, though.

And he's there a lot.

But the talkbacks with him and Gallagher have been well announced. But I'm glad you had a good time.

One way to avoid the harssh treatment? Give information in addition to just excitement -- like WHAT you learned. Also...instead of barking at those that care about your mistakes -- acknowledge and fix it. (It does make you appear like you don't know about whom you are speaking.)

Just like in school, spelling matters. As does correct identification.


If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

I'm glad you had a good time.

I'm sorry most of the people who replied to your post defecated all over it, though.

Thanks, I had a great time and it was an awesome first time seeing this great musical. Also I agree with you dramamama, but like 4 people already fixed my mistakes for me and I believe I did say sorry.
"Also I know very well who I speak of if I actually go ahead and post..if I spell a name wrong I'm sorry"
Because when i'm wrong i'm wrong, I just think that people are very quick to be snooty here sometimes.

Your next step is learning how to edit your own posts, and then doing so.
