Ah, haha, that was an awesome interview. :lol: I like all the stuff they put in parantheses: (with sudden intensity). Haha. They make Green Day sound like a bunch of little kids: i.e. comparing Tre to a mentally challenged ballet dancer, calling Billie "diminutive"......I dont get that. He's not THAT small. xD Oh well, it was fun to read. I want it now!

I enjoyed reading that, I don't see why it matters that it was about Billie. Should the interesting subject of such a great songwriter's character never be explored in depth just because Mike and Tre are left out? There's plenty of articles about the band as a whole, it's perfectly appropriate to focus questions about the album towards the person who wrote it sometimes!

Anyway I wasn't a big fan of how they presented the last question, but I really liked Billie's answer to it :)

Oh and I love how, speaking to an English journalist, Tre said both wanker and shagging :lol:

Posted
yeah they talk about his brain and all its juicy goodness

:lol: i dont meant that dude.

Posted

the only thing that makes me confused was that why did they call him distracted?

Posted

^I know we were just talking about this haha, but yeah I think all they mean by it is he's the type of person who's always thinking about lots of different things at once. So he's distracted by his thoughts while he's listening to the interviewer. Like Tre says in his part I suppose, having all those thoughts all the time makes him a good songwriter!

I read thoose yesterday it's a pretty good interview... the cover looks great :happy:

Posted

the way they worded certain things was really irritating...but overall it was actually a pretty interesting interview.

Posted

I might try hunting for it...

I really want this magazine :/

Can I just say how much I love Billie's shirt? Random, I know, but I really like the fact that it's covered in badges that relate to the songs in 21stCB. If you look closely, there's one that has a picture of a horseshoe with a handgrenade in the middle, one that says 'Class of 13', 'American Euology' 'Know Your Enemy' and the Warning guy as well. :)

Edit: I looked again and there's also the two skulls with the X's and hearts, a gas mask, a tower, and an actual black and white picture of Christian and Gloria :woot:

Yeah, I really love that shirt, and it looks great on him, too.

On another note, I just ordered this today. I tried to look it up on Barnes & Noble's web site and decided that they only carry special editions dedicated to one genre of music or one band or something. They also allow you to purchase a subscription, but I don't want to get this mag every time it comes out. So, I went ahead and ordered it from backstreetmerch using the link dobbsyouruncle posted earlier. (Thanks for that, btw).

I hate living in oz we'll probably have to wait a month for it to come out here. Thank god for the internet.
