Billie Hoe Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 1 minute ago, kripack said: Mabe that's the reason Billie posted #mynewband on the announcement! Green Day would look a lot different live without Jason White and with Jeff actually playing on stage and not hiding behind speakers. Though I don't believe that would actually happen If that were the case, I think they would have included them in the promo photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, really. He's almost as insignificant as everyone who tweets at him. Oh, believe me. Jason Freese (The piano guy) is SO SO SO much more significant than Jeff. Take ¡Viva la Gloria! for example, the piano is vital.. You can barely hear Jeff at all... I mean, do I have to point out again that he plays an acoustic guitar throught the entire set? even in songs like Know Your Enemy? lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can barely hear him, especially when is a loud song like Holiday or East Jesus Nowhere. And like someone already pointed out, the backing vocals are already covered with Mike and Jason.

November's Storms Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Clinging on to feeble hints here but I'm excited! Bang Bang sounds good, it sparks my curiosity and I hope that it lives up to the title. If it's sampling or referencing Holiday at all, well that's fine by me! I like the church in the background of the promo photo, perhaps that's a hint? (wishful thinking) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kripack Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Green Day used to have prerecorded bits in songs like BOBD, Whatsername and some others, now Jeff plays that parts. He also fills in for Billie a lot in songs like Oh love, not to mention St. Jimmy, King For a Day, etc. And as for vocals - I think he is a far better singer than Mike. There are songs where Mike doesn't sing any back vocals, but Jeff does. Not to mention 4 guys on back vocals sounds just realy awesome live.

Stefano Bras Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I just want them to announce the album with the release date, album cover and tracklist. After that, there's going to be enough info to speculate and wait patiently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
