Well, we have Billy and Darryl being the grammar nazis, I'm the Spanish grammar nazi (along with Jose), you'll be Capitalization nazi

I don't really like getting called a nazi. How about something else.

Green Day could go to Adeline.

Or Reprise needs to run away from Warner. Can they do that, or do warner own them?

Wait, if Reprise IS Warner, why not just put the Warner Logo on the CD instead of Reprise, or Warner could just swollow Reprise up.

They should just go to Adeline :happy:

I dunno about what kind of label would be best for them, but surely they could demand more control from Warner, or any other major label for that matter? I mean they're one of the biggest bands in the world, you'd think they could get pretty much any kind of deal they wanted.

Warner sucks. If Reprise would split from them then I would be thrilled. Reprise has outspokenly rebelled against a lot of Warner's policies. We should start a petition. Except there is less money in indie, which means less tour dates, less frills at the concert. It's just better for everybody to suffer through Warner's bullshit. It's not worth the consequences.

I agree. Everyone knows Warner sucks, but its best if we stick with them :/

I Respectfully Disagree.

me, too!

Adeline Records would be great!

but I think such a small record label can't deal with such a huge band like green day

I don't think that Warner has ever prevented Green Day from doing what they want. They certainly haven't ever prevented me from hearing what I want. The bottom line is that as long as I'm getting new songs and tours as Green Day writes them and travels, I don't care what label they belong to.

you'd think that, but a label like Epitaph could handle them easily (and they'd get out of Hot Topic :))

If they went to Adeline then Adeline would get more money and become big enough to handle GD. Lots of people like Green Day and buy their albums.

I'm pretty sure that Adeline is part owned by Warner. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

Nope, Adeline is not a subsidiary of Warner, Reprise is

Warner is a great company.

Uhm, no. They are in no way "great"...

Posted

Or a company. They are more of a corporation.

Just like other mayor label, Fat Mike is right, they just care about the money

I mean look at Clive Davis, nice guy and all, respected by the community, but when Kelly Clarkson said she wanted to write he own songs, he said no, she did it anyway, and he stopped promoting the album

Posted

Would it not be the case that Green Day would have a lot of creative control over their work given their status. If this is so, then changing to an indie label would only have a negative impact in my opinion i.e. smaller distribution power, less promotion etc.

Posted

it wouldn't work, sure everyone hates warner, me included, but they aren't stopping green day from doing anything, are they?

I agree, because i'm sure that Green Day can basically decide what they want to do and when they want to do it at this stage.
