CD: 4.5 stars; DVD: 3.5 stars At the conclusion of the ennormously successful "American Idiot" tour, Green Day now releases it's first full-length live album. To entice fans even more, this comes as a CD/DVD combo package. First the CD: "Bullit in a Bible" (14 tracks, 65 min.) is evenly divided between 7 A.I. tracks and 7 selections from the past. The band sounds really tight and arena-sized, and the sound quality of the CD is outstanding. Favorite tracks for me include "Holiday", "Longview", "Brain Stew", "Basket Case", and "Wake Me Up When September Ends". At 65 min., why didn't they squeeze in two or three more songs, but in the end this is a very enjoyable performance. The DVD is another story altogether (the tracklist of the DVD is listed above in the Amazon listing). Two major complaints: rather than having the show in one section and the interviews with the band in another section, they are all intermixed, severely testing the continuity of the show. Even worse is the incessant editing of the show: the picture shifts to another angle just about every few seconds. I know this is the MTV age of short attention spans, but come on! After a while, it becomes quite annoying. Too bad, as Green Day is clearly at the top if its game musically. In all, this is certainly not a "bad" CD/DVD combo, but it could've been even better and I know that I will not be playing the DVD all that much. But I'm glad to have the CD in my carousel!Read full review
If you're already a Green Day fan, I don't have to convince you to get this out-of-production CD; you already know how fun it is to watch Bill Joe, Mike, Tre and friends put on a show! If you are a "casual" Green Day fan (meaning you like what you hear on the radio but haven't really explored Green Day's numerous albums) I would *highly* suggest that the Green Day you haven't heard due to their honest lyrics (you know, F-bombs and a few other terms deemed to be too offensive for the delicate ears of the general public) is at least as good as what they are commonly known for: great music and great concerts. If you've been to a Green Day concert, this CD will become that pleasant reminder you will keep pulling out to watch and remind you of how incredible those few hours in your life were. If you've never seen Green Day in concert, first my condolences. Second, this will whet your appetite to see the How-Do-They-Do-It High Energy of Green Day doing what they do best: Rock!Read full review

This is a great cd and dvd. It has a collection of Green Day's best songs. All live. And Green Day actually isn't one of those bands that just flat-out stink live. They are actually really good live. The songs are great for the cd, but unless you watch the dvd first, you won't even be able to ell some of the songs are edited in the cd. The dvd is very good too. You'll se ALL of the band members and not just Billie Joe. You will see the audience a lot too. The footage is amazing and the behind the scenes are great too. A lot of them are with the band, and really funny. Another one shows all the people who made the cd/dvd recording everything on audio and video. Its cool to see how they did it all. There's also a couple where they just interview fans. Which is one of my personal favorites because it shows that Green Day really does care for their fans and that the fans really love the band. So, overall, this is a must have for every Green Day fan and even just punk fans. Hope I helped and I hope you buy this amazing cd/dvd.Read full review
