Bullet in a Bible was released as a double-LP set on November 10, 2009, as part of the band's 2009 vinyl re-release campaign. They might have meant to beat against the Head Redneck’s agenda, might have wanted to bury a punk rock pipe bomb at the intersection between populist politics and the Blue Collar Comedy Tour.

The set is loud, and Tré cool’s bass drum often resounds like he’s banging a huge pedal on the side of Texas Stadium.

There’s nothing here as hilariously cheesy as “The Road,” but a few of Armstrong’s interview segments on the DVD have the clichéd “I don’t know/We do so many shows in row” air of the traveling rock superstar.

Notes: Released on CD and DVD, it captures the band playing two of the biggest shows in their career on the American Idiot tour. And it contained none of the danger and fun that Billie Joe Armstrong had congratulated himself for bringing back to rock’n’roll during his acceptance of the Best Rock Album Grammy for American Idiot.
