Oxymore Posted August 6, 2014 Posted August 6, 2014 There's a thing I just saw on Instagram of The Network saying cumming soon. Is this old? what thing is it ? post it ! Quote
Todd Posted August 6, 2014 Posted August 6, 2014 It's funny, at Brixton when they played Chump the crowd around me was fairly quiet then everyone fully screamed "magic man, egocentric plastic man" then went back to being quiet again. Amazing moment. What, no one knew the rest of the lyrics? Quote
Spike Posted August 6, 2014 Posted August 6, 2014 What, no one knew the rest of the lyrics? I think they did, but everyone around me just went nuts for that particular line. 1 Quote

bagelfeet Posted August 6, 2014 Posted August 6, 2014 This is the Network thing... Hmmm http://instagram.com/p/rW0gbdKqkM/ 2 Quote
Oxymore Posted August 6, 2014 Posted August 6, 2014 This is the Network thing... Hmmm http://instagram.com/p/rW0gbdKqkM/ Thanks for posting, but some people said in the comment it's been there for a while so... (personnally I don't know, I didn't even know the Network had a website ) 1 Quote
St. Brittany Posted August 6, 2014 Posted August 6, 2014 DIRTY ROTTEN BASTARDS IDEAS The first time I listened to "Dirty Rotten Bastards" I instantly noticed it was pretty made up of all different songs, and very noticeably. I feel like there's an awesome story behind it all but I can't find anything on it. I know I'm not crazy. The intro sounds like Bizet's Carmen, Next comes the Marines Hymn. Bad Reputation by Joan Jett is in there, Everything just sounds familiar, the ending sounds a bit like Norwegian Wood, but could just be because it's in a compound meter. I'd really like to know what went on with writing it It's awesome. Quote

Hmmm http://instagram.com/p/rW0gbdKqkM/Yeah it's old. They used to have a cool and funny website but then years ago (definitely by 2007/8 if not earlier) it was replaced by that page. Just tried visiting it and it's still there , by this point I doubt anything is "cumming": http://thenetworkband.com/At one point someone worked out a way to view the old pages of the site, possibly by typing the urls of the specific different sections (which they either already knew or worked out). I think that's how I saw it. No idea if that's still possible though. 1 Quote
JOE THE X-KID Posted August 7, 2014 Posted August 7, 2014 I'm glad, I'm not really a fan of The Network, I'd rather have a Foxboro album 2 Quote

JOE THE X-KID Posted August 8, 2014 Posted August 8, 2014 Dunno if anyone has seen this, you can only hear Mikes vocals at some points, pretty cool 1 Quote
Z J Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 Dunno if anyone has seen this, you can only hear Mikes vocals at some points, pretty cool I actually think the cooler part is the fans actually singing Going to Pasalacqua a bit. Most of their early shows don't seem to have fans that sing a long much. Cool to see 1 Quote
Sauli Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 I'm probably a bad fan if I admit that but I always thought American Idiot goes "All across the alien nation" instead of "all across the alienation. I'm a bit disappointed. 1 Quote

Sauli Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 If you knew all the things I misunderstood in Green Day songs I wasn't disappointed with myself though. Alien nation just sounds so much cooler than alienation Quote
Spike Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 I thought it was "idiot nation," hence the fan club name. They had idiot in the fan club name long before American Idiot. Quote
Oxymore Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 They had idiot in the fan club name long before American Idiot. thank you you just taught me something about Green day o__o 1 Quote

Certified Nimrod Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 Yeah, since like 94 They were popular back then? Quote
