Rusty Shackelford Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 After some more listens I like it quite a bit. I went in expecting mild disappointment and can honestly say I like every song. I can see why some wouldn't though. Easily miles ahead of 21CB Overall it doesn't suck nearly as much as 21CB. But 21CB still had some great standout songs (21 Guns, Last of the American Girls, See The Light, Peacemakers, and The Static Age), Uno however, doesn't have a single track except maybe Nuclear Family that I can isolate and say yeah, thats good shit and I wanna hear that song again and again right now. So in a lot of ways I wouldn't say its miles ahead of 21CB, but overall its not a crummy album like I'd say the majority of 21CB is. Obviously I'm conflicted, but I think you get my overall point. Hey we're all entitled to our opinions. Of the 21CB songs you listed I only liked Static Age. This is by far the best album by them but I'm not upset about it. I can accept it.

Ghost Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 So Green Day was invited t this festival, they only had like a short time to play and they want to cut them off. Billie's reaction is on 7:45 or so: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJrXCSmtc1o&feature=share&list=ULKJrXCSmtc1o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Well, someone's post has been deleted but ok, I'm going to say it anyways. I've been reading that the only band/artist that was cut on their performance time was Green Day. They were planned for 25 minutes and at the end, they were cut for only 18 minutes. Rest of artists were respected. So, if I was them, I would be that pissed or more (supposing that's the onlye and real reason, you know). That's just not fair.

Scott. Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Serves them right for playing such a shite festival to fucking 13 year old girls. Look at the line up for fuck sakes. Whinging about Usher, Justin Bieber etc but he's at the wrong festival the daft twat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 I suppose it's a promo compromise. So well... it's not THAT bad to play there, specially if the radio itself wants you to play. The line up sucks, I agree. Anyway, there's no excuse to treat them like that, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicken-royal Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Pretty understandable that they'd be pissed off getting their set cut short. Shitty thing to do, especially doing it whilst they're playing. Thoughts on the new album now I've listened to it a good few times - not brilliant, but I quite like it. It's definitely grown on me. There's a lot of old Green Day sounds in there, but they never quite get to being as exciting as their older stuff. Better than expected after the first few songs were released (they've also grown on me, but the repetitive choruses feel like wasted opportunities).

Fishguts182 Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Alright we'll aside from them looking like total retards, I've listened to the album a few times now. And I'll put on my flame retardant suit cause I know it's coming, but I actually really like the album. To me it's almost maybe like their bsides album Shenanigans with some bits and pieces of other albums prior to AI. And also adding newer sounds. Was never a fan of 21st century except a few songs. Am I the only one that is actually really enjoying this album? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Value Man Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Thats nothing new. At my show Billie showed his ass, pulled his pants down like that, simulated masturbating to orgasm, kissed 13 year old boys on the lips. Yeah. its kind of stupid, but I'd rather he was over the top than if he just stood there (like most middle aged men) This picture seriously make me want to vomit. gross old men covered in foundation looking like complete douche bags. ugh. They aren't really "old men". They are just way too old to try and pass themselves as teenagers. You'll find as you get older, that 40 isn't really old. JFK was 46 when he became president and everyone called him young. Its relative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M!ke Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Billie needs to grow the fuck up. I honestly don't give much a shit what you wear. You wanna black your eyes, fine thats kind of a rockstar thing to do in reality. I'm not gonna fault Kiss for wearing makeup 99% of their career. But seriously, pulling down your pants? Simulating masturbation? Thats not what I come to see, and frankly if I had a daughter in her early teens at these concerts I think I'd be mortified that she was seeing such shit. As for Billie's tirade. I'm conflicted. It is bullshit that they cut them short. But there are so many better ways he could have handled that situation. Dropping a bunch of F-bombs doesn't solve shit except to let us know that you're upset, and frankly he looks like a big baby by doing so. Again though it is ridiculous that only they got cut short, don't understand why they would do that at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Kyle_ Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Billie's been doing that since the late nineties at least. Where have you guys been? He's bi-sexual too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I'm well aware. hence, why I said he needs to grow the fuck up. Its been 20 years and he's still doing that shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Kyle_ Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 If he didn't, you'd guys would complain that they're not fun anymore. Like Mark and Tom, they HAVE TO DO JOKES OR IT AINT BLINK NO MORE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
