Good for him :happy: Rob Cavallo has had one bitchin career.

I love how he's virtually fired from Warner when he's given one last chance, and signs Green Day, and ever since then, he's been promoted left and right

Sometimes all you need is one band or one album to save yourself from ruin.

Well this could be more good news for Heart Like A Hand Grenade

I hadnt thought of that. Good point.

I guess a CONGRATULATIONS! is in order for him :)

Lets just hope he doesn't become an evil chairman of the company! And gets Green Day better advertisement for their next album whenever that may be! :D

This news made me very happy. First because Rob has always seemed like such a nice guy. Second, because I hope that he brings something new and better to the way Warner has dealt with online publishing rights.

Wow that's cool he really deserves it and i hope he brings some fresh air into Warner now :)

Makes me really happy for him too^^

Green Day decided to change producers and went with Butch Vig

nothing to do with Rob getting promoted :)

We don't know that for sure, do we? Rob was pretty busy producing some other records in 2008, then in 2009 he was promoted. If anything, it made more sense to me that he couldn't do it at the time. That said, I really don't know either way. I don't think we've heard exactly why they went with Butch instead of Rob.

actually that's true. When they said they were looking around for a producer, it didn't occur to me that Rob may not have been available.

He's definitely not now :) ...good for him (and good for Warner, the bands they work with, the music industry in general, etc.), but notsogood for anyone who'd been holding out hope that he'd produce Green Day's next studio album. Especially now that the guys are looking to bring back some of their older sound, having RC in the studio with them again might have been a really good thing.

My guess was so they could just try something a bit new/different.

I'm happy for him...god hes going to make a lot of money :happy: just saying! hopefully it doesnt go to his head tho

I love how Rob Cavallo has produced such amazing albums. He sure deserves this, congratulations to him! :D

I thought Cavallo had left Warner a while ago :unsure: Wasn't that the reason why 21st CB wasn't produced by him? At least I remember discussing this with people here.

That's good for him though! Congrats to him!

I'd heard he was promoted internally to head up their "creative" department or whatever it's called. That supposedly happened right around when Green Day was ready to hammer out 21CB in the studio, so such a promotion would definitely have made Rob unavailable to them.

Good job to him! He really deserves this. :happy:

Ok a little off topic but I had heard they were shopping around for a producer for their next album, then I heard they were recording their shows for a live album, is it possible that the producer they were shopping for was to produce the live album? Does one need a producer for a live album? I don't know exactly how that works. When I heard they were shopping for a producer I was like Woohoo! but then when I heard they were recording a live album I was like ahhhh. Not that I wouldn't love a live album but a new album means more tours, videos and meet and greets. And a live album does not? Sorry for the long manic post.

WOOOT~~

well deserved.

Maybe Cavallo can pull the stick out of Warner Records ass :lol:

JK/ good for him :happy:
