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?

I think they did, but everyone around me just went nuts for that particular line.

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.

This is the Network thing... 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 :lol:, 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.

Yeah, on the English Wikipedia page of the band there's a link to visit the full website.

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

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.

I thought it was "idiot nation," hence the fan club name.

:lol: I wasn't disappointed with myself though. Alien nation just sounds so much cooler than alienation :P
