Because Pinhead is Aaron's band. And besides, he is a hell of songwriter, and the other members of the band are busy with other bands. At the time that Pinhead is together, Aaron must have 40 songs ready to record and play. On 5/19/2020 at 2:07 PM, Beerjeezus said: 21CB. I checked and it indeed is on Awesome As Fuck so we can safely conclude it was fucked with a bit to make it sound more polished I really dislike how they managed all the live stuff from 21st CB. Besides pitch correction (that was awfully done) they also patched/cut stuff with other shows so nothing is close to real. Is worse when you have access to good audience material for a lot of those shows and compare. Is sad because the song selection is great. But it is what it is. 2 Quote

Tbf every live album you've ever listened to, at least major label ones, has been reamped, overdubbed, and had standard production tricks like autotune applied to it. At this point expecting an album with a raw sound from any big band is like expecting a magazine cover with no photoshop. 3 Quote

I can't call it "revamped" if the results are atrocious as this one. I'm fine with patching or replacing stuff as long is not noticable. Even if I know there's stuff missing, but that is my fault since my vast knowledge on bootlegs haha Quote
Yosuke Hanamura Posted May 27, 2020 Posted May 27, 2020 Was “Heart Like A Hand Grenade” filmed in HD? A lot of people seem to think so due to the digital releases, but it appears SD to me. Quote

The first 1080p HD camera came out in 2006 so it’s not 1080 could be 720p John is on IG someone could ask him 1 Quote

So those two are possibilities, but I don’t really see it. If I could get in touch with him to ask, that would be incredible. Quote

Well true 1080i have been but don’t know if John had a budget for one or for film I don’t have the dvd on me but sometimes they will list the cameras used in the end credits Quote

Asked John on IG the editor replied that they used a Panasonic DVX100 camera so no HD edit: John himself just responded “HD is for asshole and not punk rock” 2 1 Quote

DV tapes were the broadcast standard for SD in the 2000s. John must’ve been ashamed when Bullet in a Bible was recorded then! 1 Quote
Slave To The Network Posted May 29, 2020 Posted May 29, 2020 Random question, but does Billie wear contacts during tour/media appearances etc. or just settle for subpar vision? Clearly he wears glasses at other times, so he needs the correction. Quote
jengd Posted May 29, 2020 Posted May 29, 2020 I think he may (I think Mike has for years) but I think maybe it’s just that he is needing glasses for reading but is finding he wears them more and more, often happens (I hate to say it) at his age 😂. He really suits his glasses, seems to have quite a few pairs, often spotted hanging from the neck oh his t-shirt. Even did this on the performances of Ordinary World for Conan. 2 Quote
iTokerBoySwag Posted May 30, 2020 Posted May 30, 2020 Did Billie Joe ever meet Nardwuar? I think that would be interesting. Quote

That Dude Posted June 5, 2020 Posted June 5, 2020 Some of The Network guys should make a solo album or form a super group. What if Green Day and the Network did a supergroup Van Go teams up with Pat Wilson on drums. James Hetfield on guitar Quote

jollyroger Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 How come this versions so different? Are there other versions of other songs that are different too for the radio and stuff like that? I really love this version and thought it was super cool. Would've been cool to hear it on the radio. 1 Quote

Yes, there are a few distinctly different radio mixes, like Redundant, Prosthetic Head, and the Jerky Boys mix of 2000 Light Years Away. I’ve heard Last of the American Girls on the radio before, but the station played the album version. Quote
