Hermione Posted July 21, 2011 Posted July 21, 2011 In Cometbus #54 "In China with Green Day" he mentions two limey photographers who were doing some work for a coffee table book. Could this be the book we're talking about? If so, I won't get my expectations up. According to Aaron (always to be taken with a grain of salt) it's just a bunch of pretty awful pics, lots of posing and nothing really genuine that would reflect the real Green Day. And there will be very few words, like only descriptions of the pics. I don't know about you, but that doesn't sound all too exciting to me. I think it probably is. I dunno though, Aaron's very harsh about these things so they might not be that bad. Like he described all professional photos of Green Day as being either cartoonishly goofy or like constipated James Deans . That is partly true but there are sometimes good professional photos of them too. Either way I'll be quite interested just to see the photos Aaron described lol, even if only to see if they're as bad as he said . I'm never gonna be that excited over a book of photos but it should be interesting.

You know, at the end of day, it's a book about Green Day, and yeah, I'd like to see some cartoonishly goofy pics or some constipated James Deans. So whatever it is or whenever it will be published, I'm gonna buy it anyway.
Zelda Posted July 21, 2011 Posted July 21, 2011 I had completely forgotten about this, so I'm just going to forget about it again and then be excited when/if it comes out.
Burnout98 Posted July 21, 2011 Posted July 21, 2011 I really need to read a good book soon. This will probably be it

Ashley! Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 too bad i hate reading lol. imma get someone to read it to me then show me the pictures. I think it's actually going to be mostly pictures with descriptions, or something like that. So you should be fine
