'Cause that's the sound of the bass (kinda)...


Yeah, but what made Mike say, "I'm going to change my surname from Pritchard to the sound of my bass"? I think that's what the original poster's question was.
I understand. I don't need to know why.


I know it was because when he played bass in school everyone would go "dirnt, dirnt, dirnt..." Gradually the kids in school started calling him Mike Dirnt and he preferred it to Pritchard so he started using it.(although it could have something to do with knowing Pritchard wasn't his real surname anyways because he was adopted) he probably thought well Pritchard isn't my surname either and I prefer Dirnt and a lot of people call me Mike Dirnt so ... It stuck Very Happy I hope that made sense, I read most of that somewhere on the internet but I cant remeber where, sorry.If I come across it I will post the link

They are the same person.

Oh really?

They havent done any good interviews for a while so I doubt that.

Besides, they're just at draft demos. Aka they're in Billies basement still. Not studio 880.

Why upset?

AI took ages to come out.

Them saying their other album got stolen was something to cry over.

This is extremely quick for a follow up album of such a monster hit.

Lets just hope it doesnt flop like Insomniac did after Dookie, eh?.

Even if it does flop, that isnt such a bad thing. None of Green Day's albums after Dookie were as "successful" but I think what came in the middle was some of their best work Dno

If they're happy, I guess thats what counts. I just want them to tour again sooner rather than later Shifty

Anyone know what color Joey's eyes are?


one of my friends have seen them at a concert in California and said that he has brown eyes or very dark green... most likely brown cause that's the color of 80's eyes Very Happy
