mike-shirt-quotes.jpg

I've seen Mike wear many different types of clothing with these quotes. Are they from a clothing line that he sponsored (I remember reading that he sponsored one that had closed down...or something like that)?

The only clothing company that I know of Mike being associated with is Macbeth footwear... I know he's been to a few fashion shows over the years but I'm not sure about actual brands.

Along with this shirt there's also the 'All The Electric Stars Are Shining' shirt that he's worn in a few photos - the print style looks the same so I wonder if they're from the same label/brand/store/whatever.

Yeah they are, he used to be involved with/an investor in a clothing company called Obedient Sons that's now closed down. Googling it tells me they made line of clothes with those quotes on them. I think that photo is from before he was actually involved with the company, but I guess the reason he got involved was because he'd been wearing their clothes.

Ooh, I didn't know about his link to Macbeth footwear. Does he have his own range or something?

hey guys!

I'm kind of new here. I just wanted to ask if there's any Green Day project coming soon? I mean, I haven't heard of them lately so I'd love to hear a new album and maybe attend a concert when they start a new tour. thanks a lot for the answer..

these are just some of the GDA news pieces about his shoes - he has done two collaborations with them so far.

he also designed a shirt with the company

Hi there

So far all we know is that GD have been jamming and playing around with new material.

The new album won't be out for a little while yet, as far as well all know. My best guess would be sometime towards the end of next year or the beginning on 2013, but that's purely speculation.

welcome to the GDC :)

Thanks. :)

It's a shame that it closed down, though. :(

I've got a question about Hearts Collide... does anyone know when it was written or any background? Just because to me, it sounds sonically similar to Cigarettes & Valentines (granted, I don't claim to have a particular ear for music) ...and I was wondering if Hearts Collide was maybe going to be on C&V and that's how it became a B-side?

It's possible. But until there's any evidence at all that it was on C&V, I wouldn't believe it.

Okay I pretty much doubt this but I'm asking here just to make sure I wanna put this possible rumor that a friend of a friend brought up on facebook to death. This person said that Billie and Tim Armstrong are cousins. I love Operation Ivy and I've never heard anything about them being related and when I get into a band I do a lot of reading about them and their members on the internet. Just so I can either confirm my doubts or be shocked: are they cousins?

They aren't at all related. At Gilman they used to tell people they were brothers, but they're not.

Posted

Yeah, and not long ago Billie joked on twitter that they're related too :lol:. That got a whole new load of people believing it. A lot of people have assumed they're related over the years since they're both from the Bay Area, both in punk bands, a similar age, and friends (and both called Armstrong obviously). But they're not.

Posted

They even said that on Wikipedia because they thought Billie was serious. lmao.

Does anyone know where I can buy that Kerplunk! shirt that is black, only has the flower and the words "Green Day"? I bought it a long time ago at Hot Topic and my brother lost it.. and now I can't find where to buy it. :cry:

It looks a bit like it's shopped, but I'm not sure.

Posted

It's not shopped. It's a picture that was posted on greenday.com. It was taken during the 2009 US leg (July 20, 2009 in fact)

Thanks.

Does anyone have any pictures of the "booklet" that comes with the 3x10" Vinyl version of 21st Century Breakdown?

I'm interested to see what the booklet and artwork looks like....

I have also been wanting to see this but kept forgetting to ask.
