localinsomniac Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 But I mean, I wasn't expecting a song called Peace to be the lead single already. I thumb my nose at the 4chan skullduggery. WHAT DOES IT MEAN
petros Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 My guess still goes to the Jesse Malin thing. So if it's that who cares if it's not yay we got something new.
BilIie Joe Armstrong Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 The lead single will in fact be...spins wheel...googles the tracklist...Don't Patronize Me. It will be dedicated to Billie's IG commenters and it will have an interlude with a rap rendition of his "then go fuck your self you stupid piece of shit" post.
IcyMoffatt Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 I think I just lost an hour of my life reading all the new pages since the last few days. If I understood well Matt, there is a single coming this June but it isn't the one we're expecting, summer will be all about GD but it isn't summer yet, the new album has been finished once but then a second time... Ok, in other words: 1- Single: if I refer to the possible track list, Peace can't be the first single. Why would it be? Most of the time, a first single from whatever artist occupies the position of song #3 or #1, or less often #2 in a album's track listing. It isn't always the case, but it is often like this (or I miraculously have a big collection of near 200 albums with lead singles being placed at #3 and #1 position). Peace is #7 in the track list. I don't expect it to be the first single. 2- It isn't summer yet, but it will be on friday 21th. New music is most of the time released on friday. 3- The album has been modified if it has been finished twice. Right?

Ross_19 Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 If something is happening this week beside the Longshot shows, it doesn't neccessarily need to be new music related. Could easily be GD announcing a few shows for the summer. Sure it isn't the summer yet, but announcing shows for the summer still means Green Day is the focus for the summer.

Hermione Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 I think there's various ways of defining summer. There's June, July, August is summer (and autumn, winter and spring also each get 3 months), there's basing it on the solstice, there's the thing where the year is divided only into summer time and winter time, there's basing it on when clocks change, there's referring to it based on the school year where you are, there's basing it on weather, it's a mess. Also depends on what country and part of the world you live in. But in Matt's definition it isn't summer yet 9 minutes ago, pacejunkie punk said: It’s not. There is a summer solstice and a winter solstice and both are on the days those seasons begin. Aren't solstice days just defined as being the longest and shortest (most/least daylight hours) of the year though? I don't know if seasons beginning on them is definitive. Like another name for the summer solstice is "midsummer".
localinsomniac Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 It's almost like somebody mentioned the 21st as the beginning of summer 🙄

I don't know if seasons beginning on them is definitive. I believe the solstice days are technically the season change. However, what is considered a season may differ. For example, in the US, the unofficial summer season is from Memorial Day to Labor day. So by that metric, we are indeed in summer. Unless, as I pointed out above, we are in the southern hemisphere, summer wont start until December. So my question is, who's summer is Matt referring too?

BilIie Joe Armstrong Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 https://www.thoughtco.com/the-astronomical-vs-meteorological-seasons-3443708 This is actually interesting.
Ross_19 Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 Fuck summer, we only get it like once every 15 years in this country anyway!!!
DeJennsitized Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 We've become so desperate for news we're trying to determine a consensus for the beginning of summer #itstheGDCway

I personally consider June to be the summer from the get go, lasting until September. Not sure how its officially decided though
