¡Nunes! Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 Since Longshot tour starts tomorrow I don't expect new music now. It'd make more sense to release a single / EP at least a few days before shows, doesn't It?

With Mike’s Oakland post, I’m now wondering where Tre is and if they are planning some sort of onstage surprise and playing a new song. It would be like the kind of thing they used to do fans would go nuts. It would also be the first time Mike and Tre would appear to be supporting the Longshot (or even acknowledging its existence).

Oakland, ‘sup? Just sayin’!
PleasedToMeetMe Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 How cool would it be if Green Day went for a Weezer "Pinkerton" sound with the synths?

I know people hate on the Trilogy but the whole process before rehab was really exciting as a fan. Secret shows. YouTube clips. A slew of singles and promotions. RevRad was very low-key and I'm hoping for a more engaging release procedure. Hating on the Trilogy is a habit of complete dipshits and boring people. The excitement of the Trilogy (and the Longshot in a smaller way) was amazing. It made everything fresh and exciting. Long live the creativity, heart and power behind the Longshot and the Trilogy. I really hope the new Green Day record has the excitement and intrigue of the Trilogy. I want mystery and fun and experimenting and explosive fun. Hopefully the new Green Day record won’t be easily digested material for the masses.

HAPPY ZOMBIE UNICORN Posted June 7, 2019 Posted June 7, 2019 Just something to add as part of the “reading the tea leaves” club: Fuzzy66_Music just posted this Edit: just to give some context, this account was previously used to preview longshot songs, and is one of the songsforassholes followers (not that this adds any relevance to this specific post, I’m purely “speculating” based on absolutely nothing). I don’t remember who owns the account, or if we know it, does anyone?

Hopefully the new Green Day record won’t be easily digested material for the masses. I mean that first sentence is a pretty bold statement. I do agree sitting there prior to Uno being released and hearing each song come out and watching the videos was exciting. The trilogy as a concept is really fun and I remember enjoying them stepping away from the big album rock opera thing. After getting the entire project and being able to digest the madness that's 37 songs I'm mixed on it as an effort but applaud them trying new things. It had the potential to be a very cool experimental moment for the band and sadly the reception from it has most likely turned them away from such an experiment for a while. A lot of the vision for the songs and album concepts seem to be lost between the songwriting and production. It's not that the songwriting was entirely bad it just seemed rushed and they fired the songs off before they may have reached maturity. Add that in with the terrible production and you get what we got. Some patience and focus would have done the project some good. Hating or disliking the trilogy doesn't label someone as a dipshit or boring it just simply means that they have a different opinion than you or enjoy something different. It's also very common to have a mixed response to an experimental effort.

Longshot is awesome and seeing a show would be a once in a lifetime experience while there will be plenty of other opportunities to see Green Day.
