Synopsis

Album Description

Green Day goes Blue Grass? Hell, yes! These acoustic covers of the Bay Area boys? precocious hits are a perfect blend of punk and pickin?. If you haven?t walked the "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" to the soundtrack of banjo, fiddle and mandolin, you haven?t heard what the streets are sayin?. And when these hotshot pickers sink their teeth into radio candy like "Welcome to Paradise" and "When I Come Around", you?ll be in blue-green heaven. Pickin? on Green Day ? music only an American idiot could resist.

CD Reviews

A Different Cover Album

trecool95 | Somewhere in the Pacific | 01/11/2005

(4 out of 5 stars)

"It seems as though 2004 was the year of the Green Day cover album. Different Shade of Green, Tribute to Green Day, Punk Tribute to Green Day, and now this. However, this album stands out by accomplishing what the others didn't by putting a different spin on the Green Day we all know and love. Now be forwarned, this is not your typical Green Day album. I am one of those crossbreeds who is into both punk and jamband type music. If you like Phish & Green Day then this is definitely for you. If not, you may just want to pick up some Green Day singles with their excellent bonus tracks or a Pinhead Gunpowder CD to get your Green Day fix. I've said before that no one can do Green Day quite like Green Day and this CD doesn't even attempt it. Honeywagon takes Green Day a makes it their own."
