Green Day came up in the Bay area punk scene and played all the shitty dives and did multiple shitty van tours. It's not like they became successful overnight. Gotta give them a bit of credit, they made a record (Dookie) that had catchy songs and got radio play. But then again not everyone is a close minded elitist who only listens to UK punk and post punk from 1976-1982.

you're assuming elephant bore cares about things like credentials or hard work. dude's screening questions are "is it within a 5-year radius of the first Ramones album" & "how much leather is involved?"

all ages venue that banned alcohol, lots of mediocre bands, not a lot of clever people the only reason however that Green Day is of note is that Dookie was a glossy major label alternative release similarly you can look at say The Offspring and Smash my biggest gripe however is just that the music is tedious and juvenile |

I would say they "sold out" and they honestly did
but it's not as if they were any good as a punk band, becoming an arena rock act was the best thing for them, blast that teen pop |

I don’t like the Offspring when they try to play fast Bad Religion style. Only song I really liked by them was Gotta Get Away. Dudes voice can be grating as hell.

The 90s are over.
It's 2019, and the Billy Corgans and Donald Trumps run the world. Is this hell? |

Back to “no news”, huh?
It can’t seriously have been pushed back to a 2020 release after all the hyping Bill did over the last tour. |

"Pope"-attitude at least here in his catholic "Knights of Malta" costume.
Billy told a few days ago on Instagram that he would write now NEW songs for the next SP-album. And he would need a quiet space for his songwriting. Maybe time to do another trip to Sedona. With the kids and a nanny. Or two. |

Interviewer : Hi Billy I would like to ask you about the smashing pumpkins but first can you dip your bald head in oil and rub it all over my body
Billy : I am the best of all time at doing that ask anyone. I'm not gonna do it but i could if I wanted to any time and would win a lot of prizes for it Interviewer : Wow. Board me now. |

interesting bit of "flash fan fiction," but not quite the behemoth that was your first! (the one a couple of posts ago)
