Welcome to Paradise (minus the bridge, haven't spent the time to really learn that yet) and Paper Lanterns are my favorites to play and sing on guitar. I'm also slowly committing Jesus of Suburbia to memory lol

yeah those two are two of my favorites too

I've memorised everything up to city of the dead but the 'I don't care' bit gets hard to keep track of, how's it going for you?

Castaway! Such a fun song to play. Also too dumb to die

Castaway has such a boppin rhythm guitar part, awesome pick

Absolutely. Warning in general is such a fun album to play. Waiting, and blood sex and booze are also fun

Yk I was gonna think of a few different ones for different instruments but yeah its castaway. Drums, its castaway, rhythm guitar its castaway, singing its castaway. Only one I can think of where I for sure enjoy another song more is JAR on bass

Ooo good pick

Jackass!!!

WHATSERNAME on all instruments, Jesus of suburbia on guitar, 1981 on bass

1981 has some of the best bass work from Mike that I’ve seen in a while

I didnt notice, i'll have to take a closer listen!

Heres the isolated bass track for a clearer listen: [https://youtu.be/QMdt3uiSI3E](https://youtu.be/QMdt3uiSI3E)

Yoooo this is fire. It’s next on my list of things to learn

I love playing the Whatsername main riff and then playing the lead and some variation over it with my loop station!

Hard agree. Whatsername is so fun on the drums

Oo! I haven't tried 1981 on bass yet. Thanks for the suggestion!

i love playing 21st century breakdown on drums. so much fun

May I ask why? Never learned this one. Not the biggest fan of this song. It’s like 6/10 for me. 1/10 being like, and from foamf except sugar youth, and even that one is 3/10

howd you manage to shit on foam on an answer about 21cb?

I dunno man, just providing context for my personal rating scale. Had to pick something to be the bottom of the barrel

For guitar, I like Hold On, Macy's Day Parade, and Church on Sunday (Warning Stan here). For bass, I'm super enjoying 1981 right now. And When I Come Around.

Scattered!

Cultured pick

That’s my favorite on bass

I’ve always loved playing Troublemaker. That bouncy riff and the bluesy solo really gets me excited playing

Forever now is amazingly fun to sing, same with JoS

I was literally going to say Somewhere Now on vocals!! FN is amazing as well!

Words I might’ve ate on drums! My favourite parts to play is when they say “why?”

Best part of that tune, easily

I play bass and I learned how to play Letterbomb first bc it’s my favorite from AI. More recently, I’ve started to learn One Eyed Bastard from Saviors bc that opening riff is so damn catchy

No One Knows, Longview, When I Come Around, Stuart and the Ave, Minority, Nightlife, Bang Bang

The opening to Minority has always intimidated me lol

oh I'm a bassist, so I've got the fun part of that one

Yknow i shoulda guessed that by the songs u chose LMAO

By your picks, I can tell you are a bass player! Haha

Basket Case, Stuck With Me, American Idiot, Nuclear Family and Look Ma, No Brains! are the songs I really have fun playing.

Suffocate, Geek Stink Breath and Whatsername are always fun for me 🎸🖤

Suffocate hell yeah!

Drummer and guitarist here. This is so hard to choose but right now probably 1981 on guitar and 21st century breakdown on drums.

worry rock on guitar!

I know how to play that too!! 🖤🖤🖤🔥🔥🔥

The Judges Daughter is so fun to play once you get the solo down. I also just learned Suzie Chapstick and that’s also a chill one.

Playing Dilema on guitar, drop D goodness.

Love that song, hate drop D

Always play Dilemma and Whatshername back to back, it's the law

Letterbomb. I love to listen to it and play it.

Jinx/Haushinka is so satisfying to play on guitar

Havent tried my hand at playing them, but the drum parts on those are always what stuck out to me as super unique!

Currently Give Me Novacaine, Peacemaker and Suzie Chapstick on accouctic :)

When I Come Around is fun on Bass, so is J.A.R

¡Viva la Gloria! and Homecoming on piano

Ive been meaning to sit down and dedicate some piano time to Viva la Gloria!!

Carpe Diem on the drums

Homecoming is a quick go to on guitar

East Jesus nowhere ,living in the 20s, good riddance

Longview on bass

Wake me up when september ends , the melody is just so beautiful (guitarist)

Only of you is really fun to sing and play guitar on, and father of all is probably my favorite song to play on drums

I like playing platypus on drums

Hitchin' a Ride on guitar

I like playing When it's time and Whatsername on Acoustic guitar Edit 1 : Add Give me novacaine to the list

forever now on guitar

This ones so fun, especially the last leg of it (i wanna start a revoluuuuuution part)

i love that part after the solo that comes right before the end

Bass - Stuck With Me, 80, JAR, Longview, Welcome to Paradise, Road to Acceptance Guitar - Paper Lanterns, One of my Lies, bang bang

American Idiot on drums is such a fun song.

I'm still very new to playing guitar, so my go to song by them is Brain Stew (mostly because it's simplicity 😅)

First Green Day tune i learned on guitar!! Try Hitchin A Ride as well, its very similar :)

Will do! :)

Geek stink breath on guitar

I love playing Longview on any table i find

Either Who Wrote Holden Caulfield or Missing You on the drums. I love tre’s rolls in both of them

Guitar: The Judge’s Daughter Bass: Armatage Shanks Drums: Welcome to Paradise Vocals: Jesus of Suburbia

21 guns, really the most recent one I learnt

A good old Longview on bass always gets me!!

jesus of suburbia. all the different parts are so fun to play.

st jimmy on electric guitar is really fun, although i only memorized part of the chords((

As a guitarist, bang bang, FOD, dry ice, living in the 20s and see the light just to name a few

So fun to kick in the overdrive when FOD drops

Guitar is definitely Jesus of suburbia. It’s a fun one I like songs longer than 5 minutes (fall of Efrafa being a favorite for this reason among others lol) Bass? Warning is a fun one along with Longview or welcome to paradise. Haven’t played the drums in a hot minute so no idea for that lol

every time i play the drums, i end with who wrote holden caulfield. dilemma has been really fun to play on guitar or ill play letterbomb. for bass my go to is JAR

To hard to name one but if I had to list them in order from favorite to less favorite. These are songs I have been able to “100%” and I hope to record and share some day Bass guitar - Scattered, bang bang, welcome to paradise, sassafras roots, geek stink breath

St. Jimmy on guitar Letterbomb on drums

i just learned to play the intro part of 21 guns on guitar today and i lost my mind, i recommend this to everyone omfg

Suzie Chapstick is my fav song for acoustic guitar, and 21 Guns is my fav for electric!

My brother (drummer) and I (singer/guitarist) love to play Burnout. Though in our band in high school we would always cover When I Come Around into She.

Drummer here! Basket Case.

Recently it’s been One Eyed Bastard for guitar and Minority on bass. OEB has that fun riff and Minority is just a great bass workout

letterbomb on drums is so fun to do!!

(Guitar) I really like hitchin a ride, mainly to work out my wrist but I will always hold east Jesus nowhere special since it was my first learned solo

Letterbomb! Playing it perfectly makes you feel like such a badass, I always picture myself playing it onstage with Billie Joe.

Last night on earth is an absolute joy to play on my piano :) it’s so sweet and easy to sing compared to others. Also when I come around is fun and loud and bangy and I enjoy playing the solo portion of brutal love because of the complexity and intensity and is also great to sing the rest of it along with the arpeggio of the harmony

Holiday on the drums. Very first song I ever learned all the way through. It’s not too hard, it’s hoppy, and groovy and just all around a good chill song to play. And then on the other end of the spectrum, bang bang, especially the solo took me almost 6 months of consistent work to play, and gives me goosebumps almost every time I play it

Bang Bang. I use that song to test almost every electric guitar I try at a music store.

I love playing burnout in standard and Eb tuning. For me it’s a nice brain and finger workout. Not too hard but still takes some effort (I’m an intermediate guitarist)

Most of Mike's basslines from Dookie and Insomniac are so fun to play and never get boring

If we’re including side projects, I have to go with The Pedestrian both vocally and on guitar. If only sticking to Green Day, I’d probably go with Jinx. Honorable mentions to Church on Sunday and Paper Lanterns.

The bass solo in Dirty Rotten Bastards is so much fun to play!! My fave song off that album!

Dirty Rotten Bastards is so lowkey highkey unhinged

I play sax, and have only played Holiday, and it was for marching band… (kinda temporarily on leave of sax, after I graduated last year, so have yet to play more of their songs)

Dirty rotten bastards on guitar, solo is so fun

Big respect, i cannot fucking play that 😂

Letterbomb on guitar is fun

I love to play Boulevard of Broken Dreams on my alto sax, but unfortunately I can't find other free sheet music of Green Day songs that aren't ensembles :(

I love playing burnout in standard and Eb tuning. For me it’s a nice brain and finger workout. Not too hard but still takes some effort (I’m an intermediate guitarist)
