Vinyl Noize: "So being the 'punk' he was, he got upset when Green Day was getting famous. He went to see them at Club Babyhead in Providence right as Dookie was starting to hit big and he heckled Billie Joe the entire set and Billie spit in his face. After the show he went outside and wrote 'SELLOUTS' in huge letters on the back of their tour bus. It meant very little then and means even less now, but its a good story to tell!"
Mike Dirnt: "Yeah, they do. Well, some people get pissed off yelling, 'Play this, play this!' Like a guy at one of our shows was like, 'Play 'Knowledge', play 'Knowledge'!' This was out in Rhode Island. And I was mouthing to him, 'We will, we will!' But he couldn't hear me and he was all, 'Man, fuck you!' Totally got irate. And I came over and he's all, 'Man, I give you respect. Man, fuck you!' But I talked to him and I said, 'Hey. Did you hear what I said? I said we will, and you said, 'Fuck you,' to me anyway. You know what, fuck you!' And all of his friends laughed at him. He was like, 'I'm sorry.' 'Yeah, think about what you're doing first. If I hadn't played 'Knowledge', would you leave the show hating us?' It's one of those things, I mean, we can't play every song that everybody wants us to play, but we can try to suffice with the majority of ones that we feel are going to please everyone."
