The Network is back!


Little Boy Named Booze

Recommended Posts

I was listening to Money Money 2020 just a few weeks ago and had a strong feeling this would happen but told myself that they've done all they can to tell us they barely have the energy or the will to write for Green Day anymore, let alone a side project, so happy they proved me wrong. So fuckin excited about this!

I wouldn't trust any IG page unless Billie, Mike, and Tré started going to war with it. :lol:

The Wikipedia article, AKA the first place anyone is gonna go, makes it abundantly clear that it's a GD side project. 

"The Network are a six-piece new wave band.[1][2] A secret side-project of punk rock band Green Day,[3][4][5][6]"

"However, the three members of Green Day are cited as songwriters for Money Money 2020 by the group's publisher.[14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]"

"In a 2013 interview, bassist Mike Dirnt finally revealed that the group was in fact Green Day, mentioning that Money Money 2020 was worked upon alongside other Green Day projects in the mid-00's.[4]"

And you'd have to be literally Rainman level autistic to not get the joke, with comorbid face blindness. As in medically low-functioning, little concept of what a joke is, how people talk in normal situations, etc. The whole "secret side project" thing was never like a crazy ARG that took expert puzzle solving skills to figured out, it's always been an extremely on-the-nose, clearly tongue-in-cheek joke.

Can a mod block this troll...

 

(i kid...

sort of)

I agree, but there's still also the added extra of some people being confused at first/not getting it right away which adds to the fun.

I think they know it too, but I would happy to see them clap back with something new in an epic throwdown. Try harder Green Day 😂

It would take the Network to get Green Day to up their game. War is a go

Omg, GDA have posted about this Fb and now there is someone saying it doesn’t sound like Billie.  I can’t bear much more of this 😂😂😂😂

Maybe Mike, Tre or Jason recorded the vocals? Hmmm...

This exchange on the Ivankkka youtube video:

Just waiting for the Eilish fangirls to freak out...

Why would they record the vocals, but Billie Fink sing them in the video?

I don't know😂

The first minute is a little suspect, but the rest of the song is great.

Should have been making weird shit like this for years.

They actually have — Dominated Love Slave, All By Myself, King for A Day, Ha Ha You’re Dead, Misery, DUI, not to mention The Network — they just do it sparingly or it would get annoying.
