I’m pretty sure The Longshot are going to be on classic rock radio by the time I get access 😂.  I don’t even remember when I requested at this point.

I requested with multiple different accounts before this thread was even made and I'm still not in.😂😂😂

This thread has been quite an interesting read over the past two days. 

Whatever this turns out to be, I am here for it.

Now I'm just hoping I can be accepted by the account sooner rather than later :happy:

I’ve been unrequesting and requesting several times over for a while now but that doesn’t seem to do it. Now I’m resorting to making my own edits and posting them to grab their attention. I’m far from the only one trying that though.

Ooh, nice tactic. I wouldn’t want to subject all of my followers to edits, otherwise I’d try this too. I hope it works for you!

Ahh we have to stop this news from spreading so it's easier for us to get concert tickets!!!!

Billie thinks Losers are cool, right?  So love being for Losers could be love from him to his fans.  The song could be a positive song about outcasts finding love.  

Green Day could do like MCR did and release an album under their own name, but be "playing" different band on the album.  The Killjoys!

I saw few people that follow The Longshot say that they're  just Green Day but they switch roles (so Billie would play bass or whatever). I couldn't tell if it was a joke or not (probably is) , but it doesn't seem true. Does anyone know if it is?

As long as Tré is the singer

Something I haven't seen mentioned much is that the aesthetic of all of the pics/videos is really fucking cool

I agree, and it’s also becoming quiete elaborate and well defined. Maybe it’s just a mix of good taste and decent graphic skills, but IMHO the production value behind the project seems pretty high. Not that it would be something new for a GD related side project, The Network was freaking cool in this regard.

Or maybe Billie is just getting obsessed with the new ipad and apple pencil support?

Maybe, I’m not sure what kind of software they’re using for the animations, there could easily be a 10 $ app that lets you do something like that in 5 minutes. But there’s at least a lot of good graphic taste behind the whole thing.

Atleast we’ll get an insane album cover this time!

Nope. What I’ve been told is that It is the same members as The Coverups.

I would LOVE that.  Could be a few extra guys in there too, either way.  

Billie on drums and vocals 

Mike on guitar and  lead vocals 

Tre on bass (he probably knows how or could learn).  and LEAD vocals

Jason white on keyboards and lead vocals   

and then.....Jason freeze on custom percussion and Jeff Matika on turntables.   And both on lead vocals. 

everyone lead vocals except for Billie. 

and then me.  I'm on acoustic guitars, keyboards and vocals.

 

There's really no limit to who could join the Longshot.   What's the largest rock group ever in terms of numbers?   This band could party the party that was the subject of DOS.   ????????????????????

So are we over the idea that it’s Billie, Jeff, Kevin Preston and David Field?

We are over every idea except the idea that we don’t know what it is.

One thing is for certain, Billie's laughing his arse off watching everyone getting their knickers in a twist over this.

 

Now there's an image to conjure with :P

No because unless it comes straight from The Longshot account I need proof of any and all claims.

He might even be watching us over here beating everything round the bushes and feeling happy. But then, Karma is a bitch

Karma is in fact a chameleon, darling.
