But then again, it's not just 4 guys writing songs and recording them for their mates. This is their job and they started it 28 years ago. If they just keep people waiting, they'll eventually have less people waiting than when they mentioned anything about what's awaited. Waiting can lead to boredom, boredom can lead to frustration and frustration can lead to an huge congregation of people pointlessly speculating without anything to back it up. Does that remind you of something that is continually accumulating beyond 200 pages of decreasing understanding of what is happening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZSebs Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 What is exciting is that once this album is announced, the tension here will be eased and we will all be friends again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was 1 out of 2 out of the 3 i mentioned. meaning I mentioned july August and September and he probably knew july was out of the picture. So it's between August and September. Right now it can be August but he said plans change so it could also be september (one out of 2 of the months) I could be totally off, but thats how I took it. You ou would have to ask @Matt. though. edit: sorry for tagging you in a ton of stuff lately Matt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What sucks is those small shows sell out in minutes. Nowadays it's even harder to get tickets because of all the scammers who buy to sell them Except most (all?) of the special shows are paperless tickets now, which really eliminates the "scammers," actually. I'm not sure where these rumors get started about people reselling tickets for Green Day. We're actually really lucky they're going that route because it's something not all bands are doing. 1 hour ago, ZSebs said: What is exciting is that once this album is announced, the tension here will be eased and we will all be friends again.

Does that remind you of something that is continually accumulating beyond 200 pages of decreasing understanding of what is happening? But they're not "keeping people waiting", it's been an ordinary amount of time between albums and they've never said when the next one is coming. I'm not really sure why people are being impatient to an unprecedented level in this thread, it hasn't been that long and they're not teasing us any more than they have before, it's just normal. If people are frustrated by having to wait while the band make an album like usual it's their own fault. I find the hints interesting (like seeing the setlist in Billie's picture - cool and if it's hinting at something cooler) but I don't see why each one has to lead to jumping to conclusions and high expectations which only lead to disappointment. Why not just enjoy that the hints are a positive sign and wait until we actually have concrete news to get excited and write 10 pages about it? 1 hour ago, RustyJoe said: Please stop saying random times you think news is coming please Srsly It also isn't necessary to keep stating that you're impatient for the new album. Everyone wants the new album and everyone already knows that everyone else wants the new album, so it doesn't need to be said again. The thread has become exhausting to read. Please try to think before you post and have some quality control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixtrix Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I don't understand some of the frustrated complaints. I'm still enjoying the process towards a new album. And I'm bloody excited for some news coming up. But until then I don't mind the hints they are handing out. It could have been worse and they could just not share anything with us. I guess that's what people prefer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second favourite son Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 2 hours ago, Sarcasm said: it's fun to speculate, which is what this thread is really about. Exactly. It's fun to speculate, and it's fun to find out what other people think each little hint means. But there's a difference between speculation and total bullshit: Speculation - Billie posted a picture of X and I think this means they're at stage Y and the album will sound like Z; Bullshit - This morning I woke up and my cat was asleep on my American idiot vinyl with its left paw on track six, therefore the album is definitely coming out in 6 days and will have the same themes as American Idiot. Basically, what I'm trying to say is that while speculation is stretching limited evidence to come to uncertain conclusions, it does at least require some evidence. Unless you're Martin Luther King, your dreams probably aren't important enough to be this evidence. Likewise, unless you're the black eyed peas, most of us don't really care if you gotta feeling. A fair while ago @Hermione (repeatedly ) made the point that if you have nothing to say, you don't have to post. While this still stands, the opposite is also true - if you know there's been no big development, which should warrant its own thread, and you hate reading speculation, you aren't obliged to come in here and read through the speculation, and you shouldn't really complain when you do see speculation - constant complaining is about as bad as bullshit when it comes to ruining the flow of the conversation. When I found speculation tiresome, I didn't come in and read this thread for a few days. Now I'm more interested in it, I've started following this thread again.

Since it was the LEFT P.A.W. we can easily assume that the first single to be seen is named "Priorities Against the World", a political song defending lots of left-wing views.
