Ah ok. I wish I'd been able to go see "American Idiot". I wanted to go but I've been having a serious cash flow problem. That's very creative. So tragic either way.

tbh i have no idea. it's based on the story of st. jimmy & whatsername, from green day's 'american idiot' y'know, & nobody really knows what happened there? she never gave an actual reason for leaving. only the lyrics she said "i can't take this place, i'm leaving it behind", she said "i can't take this town, i'm leaving you tonight"
& nobody actually knows if she existed? bc st. jimmy didn't, st. jimmy was jesus of suburbia's alter ego- which would make whatsername made-up, by that logic, wouldn't it?
so i just took liberty to make gerard's leaving somehow surreal, like, as if he were some sorta superhero & he had to leave and save the world; only a bit less tacky, haha.
i guess we should just ask billie joe armstrong?
Ok I'm slow. I'll admit it. The end confused me. Was Gee just made up in Frank's head? And if not, and don't understand the reason he gave for leaving?
I love this so much I hate it. This is the 8th time I've read this and I don't even care if that sounds pathetic, though the pathetic fact remains that this is the 8th time I've fucking cried.
