There are incels present! Cover your eyes, children.

Yes.  

If it weren't for Pacific Daydream, Black Album and Maladroit, Weezer would be on the same level as Green Day.

Haha for me Maladroit is one of their bests, but I agree with the others.

I was just reading The Network's bios on their Instagram and when the fuck did they start spelling it Van Gough (not Gogh)???

Unless it was always that way and I didn't notice.

Edit: Checked my Money Money 2020 CD and it was always Van Gough, so never mind. What a dumbass spelling, how's that even pronounced?

Dec 11 is a Friday. I think this checks out.

Looking forward to The Sparky Renegade Tour, not featuring Fall Out Boy.

 I'm just surprised I didn't notice before. Come to think of it if it was pronounced like the surname Gough it's much closer to the way we'd pronounce Van Gogh in the UK than they would in the US (UK Van Goff, US Van Go - and neither of us say it the proper Dutch way anyway). So it kind of works. But they still should've checked the spelling

The famous painter is called Vincent van Gogh though. And I don't believe that wasn't the name they were going for

I know and I DO believe that is what they were going for..

Can we just stop for a minute to enjoy this little bit of Network related presidential humor?

I just can't get into that one, don't know why.   But nothing is as bad as Pacific Daydream.   That one makes my brain melt and spell like a volcano.    I'd rather drink nuclear energy.   I'd rather be given murder and lust.   I'd rather my transistors gone wild.  

Not sure why I put so many Network pun in there.   Since we don't know the identify of the Masked Ones, we could talk about Weezer or any other musicians for 106 pages and there's nothing @Hermione can do about.      

Ther is a black and white Money Money 2020 with Pink text.   Does anybody on here have that one?  I might have to get that.    I should be able to save up 50 bucks or so in a few years.

Don't bring me into this!!!!

Too late Too little, I guess. 

Spark the Grenades is what they have temporarily settled on.  There was some copyright issue with the other. 

And yes.  STG will be a Green Day record. 

The Network have scrapped all these songs and are starting fresh.  Too many Green Day fans were digging what they were doing. 

You know the abrasive intro to Ivankkka(  They are doing that for 49 minutes, but mixed with Cattlecore.

 A new theory (it's a hot take that involves The Network and Green Day being the same entity, so hold your nonsurgical mask!!!!!):

The guys in Green Day have been The Network since they were in middle school.  But the record company forced them into this Green Day image against their will.  When they started talking about leaving the record label, that was their first step in rebellion against their masters. 

They have faked American (and British) accents for years.  They have had it.

Green Day is over. They were always a fake, a fraud, a distraction.

That makes perfectly sense. Green Day never existed. They were just a product of our imagination 🤯
