Review: After seeing the MTV show I bought this at the store just to have it cause it was so fuuny. Then when I watched the DVD I didn't realize there was all this stuff that wasn't on MTV that was even funnier. Very Cool

Summary: Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong steals this movie!
Review: Buy this DVD even if you aren't a fan of Green Day, blink, Jimmy Eats World or Kut-U-Up (although I guarantee that you will be a Green Day fan AFTER viewing it) because it is the funniest thing you will ever see. This movie could have been a mess, but Oscar-worthy editing and a great sound track saved the day. It's actually a good film, deserving of recognition. We watch it at least once a week and sometimes twice a day.
My fave bits are:
-Green Day on stage (Mike Dirnt is wonderfully loose-limbed),
-a shirtless (and extensively tattooed) Billie Joe Armstrong rubbing cake in Mike's hair,
-Billie Joe spanking or kissing a variety of guys,
-Billie swinging from the chandelier of a two-story hotel room until it rips out of the ceiling and later limping down the hotel hallway dragging the chandelier like some demented party favor until he runs into Mike, who collapses in laughter,
-Billie branding a somewhat willing Chris Cote from Kut-U-Up ("How could I say no to the King of Punk?") on the bum with a pool bridge (heated with cigarette lighters) after convincingly telling him, "Just put a little Neosporin on it; it'll be fine, I swear!",
-Billie proudly showing his charmingly horrified wife, Adrienne, the damage to Chris' ass.
The manic joy in Billie's eyes throughout these adventures is a thing of beauty.
My only regret is that Tre Cool isn't on camera more. He's shown with his then wife, who appears to have a pretty tight rein on him, although near the end he does manage to get off a quick champagne toast, "Here's to ass f*cking!"
"Riding in Vans with Boys" is money well spent.

Summary: Riding in Vans with Boys rocked!!!
Review: I saw the Blink 182: Riding in Vans with Boys special on MTV this weekend, and I just had to see the DVD. It was the most fun, most hilarious thing I have seen. I'm a huge fan of Blink 182 and after buying their new album; I was so excited to see more of Blink. And the sports action is wicked. It's a definite must-have.

Summary: The MTV viewing was too short
Review: I saw this tour when it rolled thru Chicago on June 15, 2002. Not sure if I saw Kut U Up or not, I don't remember. But Green Day put on the best show ever. And Blink sucked live of course, but the 15,000 teenyboppers didn't know that (I felt like I was at a Beatles concert cos they were screaming their heads off, but in a higher pitch which was annoying in its own right). Anyway, this movie is great. Sucks Tre Cool wasnt in it as much (i think he was in like 5 shots), but Billie Joe and Mike kicked ass. The aformentioned butt prodding was hilarious. I think the most serious-ish moment was Billie walking (drunk, of course) to his hotel room with the chandelier in his arm. I want to go on tour like this with my band and just have fun 24-7.

Summary: Whacked in a good way
Review: I was introduced to this DVD almost a year ago. Since, I have watched it about once a week. Regardless of whether or not you like Blink 182's "Pile-of-Music" or rock out Green Day, or even the stylin's of Kut-U-up this DVD is hilarious. The fact that all this happened unscripted makes it even better. The Soundtrack rules too, including music from YOVEE and Jimmy Eats World.

Summary: Sorry for Blink fans
Review: I went to 3 DATES on Pop-disaster and Green Day just blew away a very weak Blink 182 everytime me and my friends didnt even stay for all of blink's preformance for the last show in Oakland we were tired of singing and moshing to gren day's set. Even Jimmy Eat World blew them away hell even Kut U up blew them away. I'm sure little kids could care less if they saw a good live show or not (majority of blinks fans now are under 12) but if you are a little older and have seen some great bands live then you know the difference between somebody good or even great and a band that doesnt put on a good show. The only reason i went to this concert was cause of green day and jimmy eat world. I dont know how blink could even attempt to close out shows night after night when they were getting blown out of the water and everyone was tired from jumping around to all the Green Day classics which were played perfectly. Well Blink brings this dvd down a few notches.

Summary: The members of Kut U Up are insane.
Review: If you stuck an IV pumping straight Vodka into the blood of MTV's Wild Boyz and made them into a punk band and sent them on tour with Blink 182 and Green Day...and made it into a DVD documentary, you get...one hilarious, crazy, drunken mess of a DVD that you will want to watch over and over. Riding in Vans with Boys is a must see DVD for any punk fan!!!
