I'm posting this because I'm 100% convinced this is bullshit and the owner of this tumblr and instagram is beyond nuts and spends roughly 20 hours a day stalking Billie Joes family online and posting personal photos of his family. The twist is this account (billielovesadrienneforever) has both an instagram and a tumblr and the instagram is milder than the tumblr. The instagram just posts the same photos hundreds of times and somehow she managed to follow Adriennes mother which seems to have convinced thousands of fans that she has a deep connection to the family. Sadly the tumblr is deeply disturbing. This girl admits that she is obsessed with Billie and has no life or friends. Then she answers questions about his sex life. She seems to have thousands of people convinced she knows everything about him and even made comments that Candice and Sara were in a sexual relationship. My entire point in this post is (while rather rambling) this one individual has literally thousands of followers and her claim that she knows the album is done is obvious bullshit but it's bound to be taken very seriously because these followers truly believe she is a family friend so expect that rumour to land here or elsewhere on social media very soon. Oh, I remember this account! When I first got into Green Day 3 years ago, I followed a bunch of Tumblrs relating to the band. That blog was one of the first I followed, but I soon decided to unfollow because some of the content on her page was weirding me out. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who thought that. It really creeped me out how much she seemed to know about Billie and how she would answer questions from his POV (I guess that's the best way to put it). Then again, I've seen other band Tumblrs that are just as creepy. There was this blog I found that mainly focused on Judas Priest, and I eventually unfollowed because all of the tags seemed to be variations of "fuck me" and embarrassing stuff like that, and the girl was clearly absolutely obsessed with the band members. There are just some really creepy blogs out there, and I guess most of them just happen to be on Tumblr because that seems to be the breeding ground for a lot of stuff that should never see the light of day (*cough* Frerard fanfiction *cough*).

I really hope this record will be truly amazing \m/ Back tracking a little bit, but, how much difference does using a different bass or guitar have on the sound of an album? Will there be a noticeable difference in the sound of this album down to this? Or is it more reliant on the production? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwise Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 So how many tracks are you guys thinking? I'm gonna say 12-14. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weeelll, I'm hoping for 18 again, like 21CB, but I think that anywhere from 10-14 is more realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenXIdiot Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 18 is the magic number. Think 21CB and Nimrod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenXIdiot Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 I'm hoping for a lot of variation, too., that's why I say 18. That's why 18 worked for 21CB, as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwise Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Yeah, I'd be really happy with 18, but I think they'll try and keep it as concise as they can especially after the trilogy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
localinsomniac Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 1 hour ago, st_trillie said: There is a difference between any of us speculating that the album is done and this girl stating that Mike's relative told her they listened to the finished product and they used different producers for the album but the band would have "some say" in how it would sound. "Different producers" and "some say" in how it will sound. That makes me laugh. We're talking about near 30-year veterans, but their several unnamed producers will give them a smidge of input on the sound of their own album. I could be wrong, and they might be totally changing course from their last 11 albums. But the ambiguous language above is exactly the kind of bullshit an attention seeker can be expected to use. Good grief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good grief. Trust me that is literally THE most normal stuff posted on her tumblr and the stuff least likely to make you want to scream. The hideous analysis of Mike/Britt and Tre/Sara relationships and how Tre never stays with anyone and Sara is bisexual and dating Candice and Sara's bio on IG about being an "extreme unicorn trainer" is proof as is her and Brittney's tattoos of unicorns. She spends loads of time shit talking about the others to "prove" that Billie and Adrienne are perfect...obviously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the MTV VMA's coming up on Sunday, August 28th at Madison Square Garden in NYC. Maybe they could get up on stage and make the announcement! Tour dates posted online Monday morning. And with the band in New York, maybe a secret show at Irving Plaza one night that week?!?!?!? The single is announced for a mid September premier and the album is set to drop in early October. Sounds reasonable, don't ya think? To add onto this, we do have enough evidence to strongly assume that Green Day was in the process of recording a music video. It could be possible for the video to be premiered at the VMA's. Just a thought. Edit: Followed by a performance of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quality not quantity Sometimes quantity allows you to choose the songs you consider the best (your own quality control). But I prefer 13/14 songs too because it usually takes 50 min/1 hour to listen and it's easier to get used to the songs. Example: I really like Op Ivy, but their 27-songs album/collection is so long I still couldn't hear some of the songs carefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be delighted if they had 27 songs half as good as Op Ivy's collection Seriously though Nimrod was perfect. If the quality is there why complain about the length?

Harry Potter. Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 After the last decade of complexity and megalomania, I'm hoping for a concise effort. Ambitious and meaningful, but short.

jumpsalty Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 4 hours ago, st_trillie said: Well obviously there are a lot of disturbed individuals but she is worse than those asking the questions because she chooses which questions to respond to thus which ones get posted on her blog. Also she's the one who claims to know what Billie eats for breakfast and lunch and where he is every second of every hour and invents little stories about Adrienne and Billie and seeing them together doing stupid things when Billie then posts something from a different state The girl needs a real life hobby and a reality check. oh come on, I know the blog you mean and deluded is more appropriate than 'creepy stalker'. she's definitely in her own bubble and she's naive sure but she's never claimed to be a friend, never claimed to know anything other than what people tell her and I've certainly not seen her suggesting what she knows they're up to on the daily. I just think there are definitely worse fans to hate on. She's harmless. besides, you do the exact same thing - you constantly claim to know EXACTLY where billie might have been on any given day to prove someone else wrong ("billie was not at pipeline to a cure") and I'm far more alarmed by some of the stuff you post about family members than I am the girl on the blog.
