Kryssi. Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I mean, as much as I love the guys, I think they're taking the absolute piss with this album. I mean, seriously. I mean, it's all well and good them doing things such as Foxboro Hot Tubs, but it's only a distraction to a certain point.. now we have the pinhead gunpowder shows, which is creating even more of a distraction in a way away from the album that should obviously have been released before now. Yeah, it's been 4 years this year since AI was released, and given the fact that they were touring with it for 2 years.. other bands, have done the same!! I mean, other bands tour non stop just the same but manage to release an album at least 2 years after the last one. What is taking them so fucking long now?

DeJennsitized Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I don't get why the Green Day bashers are pissed off by the people still interested in Green Day. What the fuck d'you expect? This is a Green Day forum, ffs.And why the hell are people going on about Green Day 'disappointing' them? I mean, Jesus Christ, you're not the ones in the studio making the album. Green Day don't have to meet anyone's standards. I think there's a quote from Billie Joe that goes somewhere along the lines of making music for themselves, and if anyone likes it, that's great. Personally, I think the ones being sheeps are not the ones who are sticking by Green Day, but rather the ones that have just got bored, and have apparently 'moved on'. I know that's all been said before, but I like putting things in my own words. *Awaits the mindless insults from people who disagree* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rootbeersoup Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 no one is invading green day threads and saying 'OMG GREEN DAY SUCKS.' i have never, ever seen that on this board.i can only speak for myself, but i rarely post in threads about green day because i simply do not give a flying fuck.look at the title of this thread, now look at how defensive the hXc-loyal to the ends of the earth green day fans are getting when people are saying they're a little displeased with the band.they come here and expect everyone to be like them, and they're pissed that other people don't share the same view.I agree, I also don't care, so I don't bother with GD-related threads too muchI don't think their reasoning is wrong in saying that people here should be, or should have been at some point, Green Day fans. Now I don't know about anyone complaining about someone not liking the band. Maybe if they got the impression that they never liked GD?Yeah, a lot of GD fans (and fans of any band) have an UNCONDITIONAL LOVE for the band, and there's nothing wrong with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lie about the Network, and chances are they're lying about Foxboro Hot Tubs too. It's bad enough they don't answer questions directly from fans anymore. They have a huge fucking ego complex like they're above us all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is taking them so fucking long now?Maybe the fact they've been doing the same thing over and over since they were in their late teens? They're now in their mid-30s, and Green Day has been their life. If they want to take a break, good for them. More updates from them would be nice, but if I'd been doing the same shit for nearly 20 years, I'd want to walk away from it for a few months and just say 'Fuck it.'

**nobodylikesyou** Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 When all is said and done, people need to tolerate the GD fandom. END OF DISCUSSION. Why should GD fans have to feel like they're walking on ice when it comes to talking about GD on a GREEN DAY FORUM?exactly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FJ Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 why should it tho?I believe it's called 'fairness'. Someone made the point that no-one has seriously stepped out of line with their comments. And I'd agree. Some people aren't particularly fans anymore, some people would still do anything for the band. Fine.It's a common thing in this world, a little bit of give and take. Tolerate it.

Trotsky Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 The only reason they're denying it is because they know you'd have to be a dickwad not to realise that it is them. Why lie though? It's really pathetic. If you're going to do something, do it. Sort of how authors write books, and they write a really good one. And then they use a pseudonym for the next one they write because they're afraid to be judged for trying something new.The fact that they won't admit FHT is real just shows that they're scared of judgment.

chickin'pickin' Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 why should it tho? :lol:Why not? I'm allowed to say i'm unhappy with them if i am. You can read into the lines as much as you want, but the fact remains that Green Day just don't do it for me at the moment. Despite this, I am NOT saying that I wont fall in love with them all over again if they produce something good. Whether the GD lovers want to accept what I have to say or not, it's down to them, but everybody has the right to say Green Day suck, or Billie Joe looks like a small woodland creature, or that Tre Cool is scarily creepy, no matter how annoying that may be to the people that can't find fault with the band. And the same applies for those of you that are in love with them still, nice one. I'm glad that they make a difference to you, I won't deny the fact that it does become annoying sometimes, but meh...I have to deal with it, (once i've had my sly little dig at them, of course ) Because, yes, after all it is a forum dedicated to Green Day.

rootbeersoup Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 what the fuck does that have to do with anything?Meaning, non-GD fans shouldn't expect for people to tolerate their non-GD fan-ness and should, in turn, respect the fact that people still like GD.
