DeJennsitized Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 24 minutes ago, Hermione said: To be fair there's a lot of other "insiders" who've led people to be understandably skeptical. Also some people just don't care about knowing stuff in advance. I think plenty of people enjoy it and know you're honest though. There's nothing to be skeptical about though šĀ I don't necessarily question the validity of sources or anything, but I just think the whole insider concept is pointless. Either it's vague enough to be interpreted several ways (which anyone can do), or it's specific enough to ruin the mystery, the band's marketing plans or the trust of whoever's providing the info. We'll have to wait regardless, and whatever the band puts out in terms of hints is enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MillenniumFan Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Tbh I don't think it is "ass kissing" to simply value the input by people likeĀ @Matt.Ā and to not constantly pester them for more information that they can't possibly give. While it may annoy you in particular, you don't speak for the majority of people here when you say such hints are entirely unwanted.Ā I think we can go on speculating just the same: those who choose to believe people like Matt can do so, and those that don't want to, well...Ā don't.

Yes and the long time experience I have is the reason why I don't trust insiders. FYI, Matt was completely wrong about Longshot. I don't hold it against him, I'm just saying that no info is 100% reliable so there's no reason to treat itĀ like gospel. On the matter of speculation, if the mythical sOmEtHinG does happen this week, I wonder if it confirms the 4Chan leak and I'll have to punch Billie in the face for thinking "Rome Falls", "Average Workin Man" or "Peace"Ā are original song titles.

Ā”Nunes! Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 At this point I'd only be frustrated if there was no GD new album at all. I really like how @Matt.Ā hints us without actually giving it all. And knowing that "it's no 100% true until we hear i from the band"Ā it's the perfect balance between predicting and anticipating things.Ā I'd rather this "insider" thing and to know something is happen than waking up one day surprise with new music. It's somehowĀ mentally healthy this process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petros Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 @BeerjeezusĀ can you please fuck off? I'll take whatever Matt is giving us. He's honest and if it wasn't for him we'd be completely in the dark. I understand all the other troll accounts saying shit is retarded and they should be banned but Matt is reliable and he's not here to troll people even if he says something that didn't evidently happen because plans changed. If you don't like the little hints he's giving us don't follow them and don't talk about them. You don't have to have 25 posts per day in this thread you know.

pacejunkie punk Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 I enjoy the anticipation, speculation and the hints from true insiders thatās why Iām here. Itās all just a way to pass the time and talk Green Day with kindred spirits.Ā Ā Itās even more fun to anticipate that something could be happening this week than three months from now so thanks @Matt.Ā Ā I donāt know about you all but my life is pretty routine and I need things like this to look forward to š. Ā But I prefer when the excitement stays positive. I honestly donāt understand how people can criticize song titles, fake or not. Ā A title can be simple but the song can be a classic. Titles just arenāt that important. What was so āoriginalā about āImagineā or āSomethingā? Ā Elton John had a song called āThis Song has no Titleā. Ā Titles arenāt important and shouldnāt be judged apart from the songs. Any title could look simple or silly.Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he says something that means he's heard it from the bands camp. If it doesn't happen it means plans changed there is no chance he said something just to say it I don't know how you fail to understand that. 15 minutes ago, Beerjeezus said: You don't have to be this upset about a forum, do you. I'm not the one being upset because someone is giving us actual hints about something happening. I know some people get jealous in situations like these as they are not the ones with the info but please stop it. I swear if you guys make Matt say fuck it and stops posting here...
