Play 21st Cb as opener again. It gets the job done.

How cute that his nose kinda turned red because of the cold 🖤

When you watch Ordinary World because if it wasn't for Billie you wouldn't even bother with the movie

When you take a photo of this and it needs no explanation

I actually like the idea of billie doing diy album art a lot

When you buy the DVD of Ordinary World only to realize you sold your DVD player in the garage sale last year.

The many faces of our dear dear front man: I’m thinking the bottom right may become my new profile pic...

I agree with you. It isn’t necessary. The only band I’ve seen have a kind of good system for this is Pearl Jam. They snag as many tickets as the promoter will allow, and then allow fan club members to enter a lottery by city. You can enter for as many cities as you want. All tix are face value not inflated. Only downside is if you win there’s no going back, your card is charged and you can’t sell the ticket. The seniority system for awarding the seats sucks too but other bands could do all this and leave that out.

Ugh, I need these two right now.

Don't think this one has been posted yet:

I may or may not be on change.org right now... Should I list it as a human rights petition?

The cover is pretty good trolling, but it makes it look like they're not taking it seriously which is a shame considering the album is great. However, it's "we won't play the new songs" that pisses me off.

I think these secondary sites like StubHub should be shutdown and outlawed. But because most companies like Ticketmaster are in bed with them, it makes it hard. The practice needs more regulation in the states because it's freaking ridiculous.

https://wrrv.com/new-green-day-song-oh-yeah-repeats-as-number-one-buzzcut-2/ Oh is toppling the world. If you are not on board with the new older, less mature Green Day.... Well, I think Take the Money and Crawl says it best.

Graffitia is a really cool political song you can dance to, in line with what combat rock and Sandinista did, it really fits the identity of the record IMHO I also don’t agree at all with the “missing identity” critique, I can understand that, but I don’t agree. I think this is the first record since 21CB that has a solid identity, and I actually think the cover art contributes to that. I don’t find it offensive, I find it provocative, which is different to me. I find it an hilarious take towards the band legacy from the band itself, more a joke towards themselves than the fandom (especially after they openly explained the process behind its creation). I also don’t really agree with the recycled lyrics and melodies critique, not seeing any difference from what this band has always done, and sometimes I have the feeling people is noticing this here the most because they have a pre-existing problem with the record (aka they don’t like it), which would be fine, but I might be wrong I just find interesting that this in a critique emerging from the first record in years that does not contain a RevRad/99 Rev/put 50% of the band catalogue here

Mike replied to a comment I made on one of his posts once, and that of course made me super excited, but I've posted art and stuff before tagging the boys and nothing like that has happened. You're so lucky!

I actually love the "and it's dangerous" in "Sugar Youth." I think it's a cool callback!

Play FOAM songs you cowards

Don't poke him in the face, do it like Nick from Philly

Sweet! I have a “camping” style mug a got from a conference and I really like it, so i was curious if this was similar and it sounds like it is. Gonna have to order it soon...

Long time lurker, first time poster, but wanted to chime in that I got mine yesterday evening. I was surprised to see that the coffee is pre-ground. It says so on the store, but I assumed it would be Whole Bean. Doesn't look like there is a Father of All Dark Roasts whole bean option. Mug is awesome though!

I'm not so sure about how could be my dream or reasonable setlist but I have some points: No more KFAD, instead they could play 3 or 4 any 1039-dookie-insomniac-nimrod-trilogy songs. East Jesus Nowhere must come back to the set. Imo is one the greatest songs ever. 4 or 5 foam songs. And the most important: MACY'S DAY PARADE AS THE CLOSER!

When you rip it up on retribution. And then, turn it up sidewaaays.

Mike from this week's Kerrang:

They should definitely stop acting as if Insomniac and the trilogy didn't exist 😅

He must have his own Dorian Grey portrait in his attic

The GD Q Magazine with the Live at the Whisky vinyl:

Am I the only one who thinks this is a load of bullshit? "We want to prevent scalping so we're inflating the prices ourselves". Well thanks, I don't really see what it changes for me.

It's a fun album, but has its flaws. Easy 7.5/10, 8/10 (if I'm in the mood for this type of album)

We were out for dinner last night and I swear, the woman at the next table was wearing that creamy/leopard shirt, it was very nice! Behaved well and didn’t rip it from her 😂😂

Thanks for helping me place that, the "and it's dangerooous" was driving me slightly mad lol. I haven't really noticed any other glaringly obvious old/reused melodies (no spoilers pls), so it doesn't bother me in general, but it is a little annoying to realise that one of the catchiest "most green day" songs isn't more original, spoils the song slightly. How I wish I was better at photoshop so I could knock up the Billie/poodle crossbreed image that put in my head right now

If no one has created anything tomorrow I will make one I think they have an option for lazy boomer bands

When you're a Brit and you've been absolutely disgusted with the UK for a very long time, but then FOAM gets to #1 and you suddenly feel extremely proud to be British.

From Kerrang this week:

I care less and less about reviews because none of these people's opinions are more valid than mine, except those who make/produce music themselves. I enjoy this album. I think a large amount of people just hate Green Day and will trash them no matter what they put out.

Tré looks absolutely great recently. I love that photo of him from iHeart, so cute

Yes, it’s me lol Thanks! (Btw that moment was very cute from the same interview)

From the March 2020 issue of Guitar Player Magazine

From the album release party:

Agreed. In fact, I would go one further and say regardless of the album art, it still wouldn't have it's own identity. Too many recycled lyrics, riffs and melodies and a clash of different styles. If it was supposed to be a massive F you, party album, then what is Graffitia doing on there?

Yes, please. It's okay if he doesn't want to indulge himself, but he can indulge us. Maybe we do need the petition.

Someone please tell Billie that it’s not “self indulgent” as long as your fans want to hear them

Disappointing interview with Jason in that GD were barely mentioned, otherwise quite interesting.
