So what have we learned between 90 and 80 days:

- we have seen the cover of the new album
- we know it's title
- we heard three songs: MYM, LB and FD

What have we learned between 80 and 70 days:

- The Mike McReady wrote the music for MYM
- That he came up with the title of the song (unclear)
- That the album took 1.5 years to make over two sessions
- That the song Sirens is confirmed
- That there are songs on the album that are over 5 minutes and that BOB consider some of the songs "deep"; at least more in-depth than BS.
- That there is also a song on there with the elusive title "Infallible-or something"

Persistent rumor:

- One Uke song will appear on the album

If I forget something, just let me know...

    I learned that we are surrounded by a bunch of whiny, self-entitled, bitchy folks..

    watch out, there could be one nearby!

    I learned that positivity always wins whilst dealing with these people..

    I learned that people love to make grand exits, grand entries, and they are usually both loaded with complaints.. :D

    I learned that I am one happy camper these days!! :D:D

    Bring on LIGHTNING BOLT!! :D

    I don't believe it is confirmed Mike wrote Mind Your Manners. In the video he talks about some guitar parts he came up with, but it may have a collaborative song. Also, I thought he said Ed came up with the title.

    Mike is credited for the music. Ed is credited for the lyrics. I agree on the video it is unclear where the title cames from. (He literally says: "ït came with the lyrics MYM".) There was a post right after that stating that Ed worked around this title. If this is true or just an intepretation, I don't know. Each songs is a collaboration at some point. The music however is def. Mike's; he says specifically that he wanted to *write* (emphasis) a Dead Kennedy's kind of song, and that Jeff came with the baseline.
