Slave To The Network Posted October 16, 2012 Posted October 16, 2012 Wow! That was one of the most beautiful, moving, and eloquently written articles I have ever had the pleasure to read. Many parts of it brought tears to my eyes and there were things there I never knew. It truly captured the essence of what makes Green Day and Billie Joe so great. It revealed such a deep, new world. Thank you so much for posting this!
gerardsangel4977 Posted October 16, 2012 Posted October 16, 2012 And, no offense to Nylon, I wouldn't have thought that the most introspective article would have come from a fashion mag. By a similar token, you'd also expect a fashion mag to know the difference between a leather jacket and a denim one There were some excellent new quotes in here, but, over all, the actual article wasn't all that great. A lot of the transitions seemed very forced--in some places, they even left me scratching my head--and it ends very abruptly. There was also a smattering of factual errors, along with spelling and grammatical mistakes. So, yeah, not very well-written but still provided some new insights.
Guest Posted October 16, 2012 Posted October 16, 2012 I bought this at Barnes and Noble today. The photos are stunning.
mbk Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 I thought it was touching and insightful. It was also a reminder of how Billie Joe is both so strong and unstoppable, but also fragile. It made me kind of sad and thoughtful. Thanks for posting.

I actually went looking to see if a page was missing but I liked it because it didn't feel as PR-esque as others.
jacknovella Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Billie's voice sounded a little weird to me in the video answers, a little deeper and more like it used to be around when Dookie was released. It's not the first time either, when they performed basket case on GMA it sounded just like the demo's from back in the pre-dookie era.
