Popular Post Yosuke Hanamura Posted October 26, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 26, 2020 2 hours ago, WhiteTim said: They may not want to do those kind of deluxe editions yet as they feel they’re still an active band I’ve seen some bands say they won’t do those type until after they’re done as “they’re retirement editions they’re the edition you put together when you’re retired or dead” Then they could at least profit off of what’s already circulating. DVD/Blu-Ray releases of Jaded in Chicago, Woodstock ‘94, Prague ‘96, and the 10 Spot would go a long way. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerjeezus Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 I suppose we’ll get to see a lot of cool stuff later. They’re saving it for when they’re done with an active career I guess. That said, I think this void created by coronavirus would be a good opportunity to cash in on gig nostalgia. Who wouldn’t buy a live release now? They could’ve released the Prague gig in full. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post The Grohl Posted October 26, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 26, 2020 I can maybe understand not wanting to do deluxe editions until later, but now would be the perfect time to release some live DVDs or something. They haven't done one since Awesome as Fuck. It's about time for a new one! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 I mean, I feel like we got some good nostalgia/live stuff with all that Howard Stern stuff, but I would love another concert DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post The Grohl Posted October 26, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 26, 2020 I keep saying they should release a special boxset with Jaded In Chicago and the Aragon 2016 show. Package them as Jaded Nights in Chicago. (totally not being biased) 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idiocy was defined as IQ below 30, which would still classifiy as a disorder of intellect. I can’t think of any other usage of the word that would warrant it being taken down as hate speech, other than that the problem word was “American” and then the issue would be racism, which seems absurd.

My point wasn’t to be rude to disabled people (sorry didn’t mean it to come off that way), but to point out that the only way this word is offensive is when you use it this way (and then no amount of politically correct lingo will make it better). That’s why I see no point in banning it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave To The Network Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Oh my god. That is so fucking stupid. Seriously? Are they going to ban "nimrod" now too? The word "idiot" does not have the same meaning in our culture that it did historically. It just means senseless and foolish. Nimrod is basically the same, meaning a foolish person. Word meanings change. For fuck's sake, gay used to mean happy and joyful and had no relation to homosexuality whatsoever. Now it's a completely different word. Conversely, fag used to mean cigarette and faggot a piece of wood. I hate it when companies behave like they have to walk on eggshells so as not to offend even a single person. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was drinking coffee as they said it, I am definitely being watched. Lol I bet many people wonder if they are asking for a certain vote if you take the coffee. They should also offer favorite poisons, koolaid and what other Green Day drinks are there.....I am not a Lushatology member anymore. I renounced in 2012 so I can't remember all the booze related lyrics. But neither can the members, buhuhahaha. Vote That Dude in 2020. My slogan is Due to the passage of time, I meet minimum age requirement. I have nothing better to do. Passerbys will hear The Network blaring from the White House. I may paint the house a different color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All copies of the album will now be called "Entity" as not to offend any person or creature, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
