Hell, I wonder if he's working with Larry to release a comp of tracks that were recorded back in the Lookout days but never released on an EP or LP. Think Journey's Time3. Either way this looks cool, I could stand for some Lookouts material not released either, maybe other stuff from the Lookouts sessions with Billie Joe remastered or something? It would give them something to release to bide some time for the next major album, I mean, that's what they did with International Superhits and Shenanigans.

My guess is that Billie is going to finance a new label for Larry so he can continue to put out records like he used to.

That was my thought, or that it would be Adeline - East Coast flavour.

In other musings - now we can add Godfather to the list of Billie titles - God, King, Saint - Does the goodness never end?

This is dumb but the first thought that came to my head was that Green Day would just throw us all off and release their next album off of lookout or something like that. (does lookout still exist? :ninja: )

I think so? Larry isn't involved with them at all anymore though and I seriously doubt Green Day would ever go back to them seeing as they probably still owe them a tonne of unpaid royalties...

Lots of good guesses here! Some with a little bit of truth to them, some with none at all! But it's good to see people are interested!!

Of course we're interested! I'm assuming the Lookouts on CD guess was completely on the side of 'none at all' :(

Are we going to get any clues any time soon?

He's putting out the compilation Larry has been talking about on Adeline, right? That's what I heard. I hope so because people on poppunkbored were pushing to put my boyfriend's band on that when Larry started the thread looking for bands.

Oh.. Even if this has nothing to do with the comp, you really should put Parasite Diet on it. :thumbsup:

It's likely what is going to happen. Do you remember that article which was about them searching a producer for the new record, but Cavallo is busy now that he is the chairman of Warner Music and Vig was producing the last Foo Fighters' album. Don't know if the latter is free or not at the moment.

It would be rather interesting, don't you think? I mean, Livermore is hardly experienced in these new studios. In fact, I don't think he's even produced a record in the 21st Century. However, based on the direction Green Day seems to be going with their new sound, it seems like they would be doing most of the production and mixing themselves anyways. Livermore would probably be there for support, and to stick his name on the side. It would certainly sell records to the punk scene. I'm thinking if the case is that Green Day wants Livermore, it would be in a supportive role, not supervisory.

I will do a tarot reading and let you know. ;)

Whoever suggested a re-recording of 1039SOSH and Kerplunk... well, I know it's unlikely, but boy did that get my heart racing.

I was thinking that maybe Billie Joe offered Larry a job at Adeline.
But then again, the rerecording of 1039/SOSH and Kerlpunk! would make sense, even though it's highly unlikely. I mean, I remember watching an interview and Billie Joe was talking about how their older stuff was missing on Green Day rockband.
Didn't Lookout not give them permission to use the material? So rerecording would have it's benefits...
And what is better than to use the orginial guy that did all of the recording?

Just a thought. :happy:

Yeah, I know it's unlikely but it would be flippin' cool.

My guess is that Billie is going to finance a new label for Larry so he can continue to put out records like he used to. I figure maybe Billie feels he owes a lot to him and can't stand seeing him NOT putting out records and discovering great bands. As much as I don't see it happening though, I REALLY hope Larry is involved with the new GD lp!

That would be so damn awesome! :)

While it doesn't seem likely that it'd be a new Green Day album, the idea that Larry was working with them in anyway to release something is exciting.

My first thought was "ooo, I wonder if it's a side project," though they've always released those through Adeline. Or maybe he asked him to help in some way with Adeline?

Alright, I'm done with rampant, baseless speculation for today.


My thought process exactly. :lol:

that comp sounds really interesting! not read anything about Adeline putting it out but it would bring all the bands to the attention of a lot of new people.
