[edit] 25 or 6 to 4
It was actually an issue of Guitar World which brought this to my attention, but has anyone else noticed the similarity in chord-structure between "Brain Stew" and "25 or 6 to 4" by Chicago? The opening riffs are almost exactly the same, except the amount of times each chord is struck is cut in half on "Brain Stew". Plus, Green Day's guitar work during this period was tuned one step down, but otherwise, they're the same. Perhaps we should include something like this?...
"The opening guitar riff bears a striking resemblance to Chicago's "25 or 6 to 4""

- Ha, so I'm not the only one who noticed this.
[edit] drug references
interpretations of the song were amended to specify amphetamine withdrawl, due to the references to crosstops, periods of sleeplessness, and being "spun." Previously, the page gave a vugue desctiption of "sicknes."
[edit] Vinyl?
I don't think this was ever released on Vinyl, should we take that out of the format? --Imatt711 21:12, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
