so fuckin stupid.

The Residents did something similar with the recent River of Crime podcasts. You could get a pack of pre-printed cdrs with artwork etc. to burn the episodes off onto when you bought your subscription.

Not sure what the point of those Green Day ones are.

Nice way to reel in some cash, really.

porkmarras 11.06.2006 04:31 PM

Fucking outrageous!I might make a formal complaint about this.

Prisstina 11.06.2006 04:49 PM

It'll just add to the millions of dollars Green Day makes by selling pens, notebooks, folders, wristbands, calendars, shoelaces, pins, belts, lighters, keychains, lanyards, ID cases, posters, books, belt buckles & other obnoxious merchandise to little girls and preteen boys.

What? A popular musician in a money-making scheme? In a time when the singles market is so very, very profitable? That's it, I'm calling Bono on them.

porkmarras 11.06.2006 04:50 PM

Yeah,you tell them!

really, who cares it's green day

NOOOO!!!! The first set sold out! I waited too long!
Green Day is amazing. They are the only band that is making music relevant to today's youth, and really the only band that matters. They deserve every penny they get from selling items like these! After all, they are the only ones making music that actually matters!! They are the equivalent of the Clash and the Ramones of our time. They will forever go down in history as one of the all time great rock and roll bands.

umjammer atomsk 11.06.2006 05:45 PM

Exactly.

porkmarras 11.06.2006 05:49 PM

Down the toilet,more like.Do you not feel a little bit of shame at posting stuff like that?Do you not think your parents might file for divorce if they'd find out about what you get up to on da internet?Are you not scared of being left alone and feeling cold because of your ways?EH?EH?EH?EH?
