Vanessa Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Yeah, but the albums aren't only about that. Even on The Black Parade, not every song is about death. Most bands use a topic more than once. Green Day has more than one song that has to do with jacking off and more than one song that has to do with a girl, does that get old too?Edit: Sorry Andres, I'm done now.

JakeyBoy Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 A story about dying, the afterlife, etc. Every album deals with death, dying, and all that in some way. Sure, it may mean more, but it's still the same concept, and I think that concept has gotten quite old and it's time for them to move on and try something new.Why should they do something new if they don't feel that way? Music is about self-expression, and if you want to write about death you can, and if you want to write about happy shit then that is fine too. But never should someone write something against their emotions just to "try something new." That doesn't just apply to MCR, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radioactive1 Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 I agree. The guys do bust their asses, and they've stuck to their morals about their ticket prices too. They always said that they'd keep their prices affordable and never let them get jacked up. They've stuck to that. For being as big as they are, they could charge ridiculous amounts of money for tickets and people would pay it. But they don't. There are artists out there that charge crazy amounts of money for it. Bands pay for their own tours, and those cost alot. They could profit a hell of alot more if they jacked their prices up, and yet they haven't. Not to mention how generous and good to their fans they are. They don't update? Who the hell cares? When fans come up to them, they're nothing but polite. I mean, imagine how often they have people pestering them on the streets. When they're out with their families. Ever heard people talk about them being rude? I mean, Billie Joe was being pestered when he took his kids to see Hannah Montana. According to the person that posted it, he was nothing but nice. He could have been an asshole. You want Green Day to give back? They do. Just not in the way you want. Being nice to the constant fans going up to them is a way they give back and show that they care. Not jacking up their ticket prices so they're affordable to fans who want to see them is giving back and showing that they care. When they release an album and their fans love it and feel the guys have inspired them or helped them in some way, they've given back. They know damn well that their fans are what helps them continue making a living off of their music, and they show respect to their fans because of that.So maybe they aren't telling us exactly what they're doing very often. What about all the other things they have done for the fans? In what way is that becoming disconnected? Big deal. We don't know what's going on in the studio. We'll know what was going on when their next album drops, now won't we?My god, completely agree.If I could positive rep you I would Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
