suicidexmakeover Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 I honestly hope they didn't want to do it. The photographer couldn't have come up with anything better? Photographers don't decide what they shoot, they just take the photos, hence the name photographer.
JAS0N Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 Photographers don't decide what they shoot, they just take the photos, hence the name photographer.The photographer most definitely does decide what they shoot, thats what makes the difference between good photographers and bad ones. You don't honestly think GD just showed up to the photo shoot dressed like old time soldiers do you? For a Rolling Stone cover shoot I would imagine they sent one of their best photographers and this was his idea for the cover and I personally think it looks awesome.
Kate Austen Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 Did anyone scan the article? Do you guys want a scan?
djrossstar Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 Funny how everyone on GDA mocked me for saying that the song '21 Century Breakdown' reminded me of Meatloaf's 'bat Out of Hell.' Meanwhile in the new RS Billie Joe ADMITS that record as an inspiration. Thank you very much. DJ Rossstar

fashionvictim86 Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 I just picked it up. Gonna scan it in a sec and put it on GDA.Funny how everyone on GDA mocked me for saying that the song '21 Century Breakdown' reminded me of Meatloaf's 'bat Out of Hell.' Meanwhile in the new RS Billie Joe ADMITS that record as an inspiration. Thank you very much. DJ RossstarI fucking hate Meatloaf with a passion. I even left a wedding I was maid of honor at because they played that pile of shit "Paradise by the Dashboard Lights". He's a fucking joke.BTW, the photographer is Sam Jones.

suicidexmakeover Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 The photographer most definitely does decide what they shoot, thats what makes the difference between good photographers and bad ones. You don't honestly think GD just showed up to the photo shoot dressed like old time soldiers do you? For a Rolling Stone cover shoot I would imagine they sent one of their best photographers and this was his idea for the cover and I personally think it looks awesome.The magazine, I think you will find, will have had someone, if not a whole team of people, theorising and researching into how the photos would look from the placement of the band in the shot, to what theme the photos would have. This would then be passed onto a stylist who would have adapted the idea and theme and translated it into a 'costume' for them to wear. This then would go back to the team and the finishing touches would have been made. A meeting would then have taken place with the photographer, letting them know what the magazine wanted. He/she would continue to then shoot the band, deciding on where he wants to put the camera and what shots he would use. He would even have someone checking the lighting for him/her.So don't give me 'The photographer most definitely does decide what they shoot' cos you obviously have no idea.p.s woah at the huge images posted by an admin tut tutp.p.s their faces on the front cover are so photoshopped they look like plastic hahaha
fashionvictim86 Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 p.s woah at the huge images posted by an admin tut tutSorry, they usually resize themselves I thought. I'll just edit it and post the links instead.
farley drexel hatcher Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 Thanks for those scans, that was a great read, i'll have to keep an eye out for the magazine now
Anja Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 Thanks for the scans. I can´t wait to have the magazine in my hands There´s an interview in another german magazine. I don´t think it´s worth a new thread (especially since we already get tons of new threads every day) so I will just post it here.I didn´t buy it due to money but I was able to took photographs of two of the interview pages (the other two pages were just a picture). Page 1, Page 2It´s in german though.
suicidexmakeover Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 Sorry, they usually resize themselves I thought. I'll just edit it and post the links instead.haha i was only joking, it did scare me a little as the photos of tre popped up on my screen in mega size haha
TheBullwinkle Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 haha i was only joking, it did scare me a little as the photos of tre popped up on my screen in mega size hahaI pretty much had a heart attack when that picture showed up on the Rolling Stone site.
ImnotaDrIjustPlayOneOnTV Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 ahahaha that is great! I've hated that song and the album for that matter my whole life. I'm freakin old enough to remember it getting played into the ground as a kid. It's truely over the top dramatic like a tweenie girl. I like the picture whether it be considered patriotic (maybe) or revolutionary (more likely). Billies expression is priceless. I'm headed to buy dinner and stop at the book store to buy this. I just picked it up. Gonna scan it in a sec and put it on GDA.I fucking hate Meatloaf with a passion. I even left a wedding I was maid of honor at because they played that pile of shit "Paradise by the Dashboard Lights". He's a fucking joke.BTW, the photographer is Sam Jones.

Teenage Kicks! Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 Poor Tré. I know right. I love when people make errors on stuff like that.
Sharmellow Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 How did you get the magazine?Doesn't it come out until May 28?
fashionvictim86 Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 They had it at my local record store when I went to ask about the lithograph that's supposed to come with 21st Century Breakdown. I bought it there, but I also noticed they had it at Giant grocery store when I went in there right after (both the record store and Giant are in the same "mall").Thanks for the scans.The article is a really awesome read, love it.Just too bad that page 3 is so blurry on the right side, I can't make out the words.Would it by all means be possible to try and scan that page again? ( Yeah, I know, I might be asking too much) Please??Yeah..I scanned it again and reuploaded it at the same URL.So...http://www.greendayauthority.com/articles/RSMay2009/pg3.jpg
