Were you talking to Roeker for real? I can never tell if you're being serious or just shitposting haha

 

I am also interested in a link for this

He's been my facebook friend for years, and generally responds to messages and comments.  Is it REALLY the real John Roeker?  I have no idea. 

He wishes my happy 'coming out of the womb' days and such. 

I have never asked him any questions, I don't want to run him off if he is the real deal.

It's probably Tre Cool pranking me or something, haha.  Okay with that too.

Anyone else reminded of that Longshot song I’ve Got My Problems when they hear that part in Ivankkka is a Nazi?

It's definitely him! He seems super happy to engage with friends/fans on there

So, Brit tagged Rollingstone in this story today. Not sure why because they haven't posted anything about the Network.

I was wondering the same thing. I’m guessing either Rolling Stone is preparing a piece on them or she is tagging them to bring it to their attention (although they have publicists so not sure why she’d have to do that). Honestly, she’s been posting too much Network stuff she’s killing the joke I wish she’d stop.

I actually like the intro better than the rest of the song.. I wish it would have gone on longer without the robot voice. I can really vibe to that musically

i feel like TUT got taken down because either

A. it uses snippets of instrumentation from another green day song

or B. Whoever made it flagged it to further troll everyone.

It doesn't sound like post American Idiot Billie to me singing.

So, since the Network name and TUT song title aren’t registered, does that mean their only claim to copyright protection is for the music itself? Which would mean, of course, it’s been recorded by a Warner artist?

The Network is definitely registered. They wouldn't go without doing so. I think it just hasn't made its way to the database for one reason or another. 

In addition, trademark violations aren't within the scope of DMCA. It's called the Digital Millenium Copyright Act. They're different things. Youtube doesn't take content down on alleged trademark violations, so use of the name in and of itself is irrelevant in any case, registered or not. 

 

As established before, there are three realistic scenarios - 1. Warner took it down because it's real. 2. Someone else took it down as a goof and put Warner's name, cause it's actually really easy to do that. 3. Warner took it down even though it's fake since there are no consequences for doing so even though that's illegal.

I feel like in the verse he sounded atleast a bit like he did in Too Much Too Soon, maybe?  Something made me think of the song.

The countdown song, I just listened to the clip. I don't know what to think about it. It sounded like it was just about to get louder.

I still want to know why you guys think Billie posted it on his Instagram, if it’s fake.

There's no good answer to that from people who think it's fake, because as we established much earlier, big label artists aren't allowed to listen to fan works per their contracts and general counsel.

The first minute of Ivankkka is a nazi i was like what the fuck? Typical Network. Then I got into it It's fun as hell and political and offensive! 

We have reached the point where the Network is more authentic to me than that band Green Day.

Who the fuck is Green Day?

I've been thinking, and I think that the wiki page is real. I wouldn't be surprised if they made a real wiki page just to fuel the flame. If course we all think it's fake, but chances are it's another tidbit for us to catch.

If he was really trying so hard to throw us off, why would he come back to his well known fake persona from 2003? Why wouldn’t he wear gloves with his disguise?  He doesn’t seem to be making much of an effort.

I've got one more question :

How did Billie got to a video that had like 300 views and wasn't even on main page? 

He was desperately looking for something to show us because he doesn’t have enough of his own music :(
