Green day) ... its a fun rock n roll way to remind people who you are and great publicity. Put the boy back in cowboy and put your rock back in rock n roll.

We know that will never happen and that's ok. He does flip out at times - see the whole Bucharest Dry County incident where he spat and showed some girl the middle finger but overall, I am glad he's always been mature enough to stay away from some of these clichιs like smashing a guitar.
What annoys me is how manufactured he appears. The same 'Bobby, put a corner in the jukebox' bullshit. The same cover songs each time, the same moves, the same bullshit acting teach time. Come on Jon, be a little more spontaneous. I loved the fact that they played Rock you Like a Hurricane in Munich - more of that please. Yet it's something extraordinary when it happens, while it should be plain normal. That's what he lacks and what annoys me - Spontaneity. I'm just fed up with the repetitive corporate bullshit that runs out of him and that's the same live, in interviews and on his ****in' albums. And you can tell that's a problem, when moments of spontaneity become concert highlights or album highlights. And Jon - that's not OK and eventually, people will be fed up with it more than they are now!
