A chat with Offspring..

[Bacterium]

I would be glad if everyone here could read this chat with the Offspring. On the Splinter-tour Offspring played in Sweden the sixth of March 2004, and before the concert began, the Offspring had a chat on a Swedish site.

The site is a serious site with lots of members, and they have had chats with many other artists.

Now, on this site, discussions have began about whether this chat is real or fake.. I would like to think it's real, and I can't see why it shouldn't..

Please read it and tell me what you think about it!

Greg K golfs.

[Sinister]

Greg K, at least, DOES golf. theres a "Chip Drill With Greg K" in Huck It, as well as an interview on this site that was made on a golf course.

[Skate Rat 19]

I could really care less about all of that but yeah whatever, what the hell was the qeustion again

[hughesyboy]

Nope, no way its real, look at "The Offspring's" answer about girlfriends:

S:Some girlfriends but nothing steady for all of us, we have nice fans though:)


Nothing steady?? Dexter, Noodles and Greg are all married (not sure about Atom) but if marriage isnt "steady" then i dunno what is.
FAAAAAAKE!!

Good try though..... :confused:

[Italia311]

they do bmx?

yeah i was gonna say somethin bout tht too, but figured maybe it was a joke

[neocon58]

lol... Brendan or Brian. hahahahaha!!!!!!!

Thank God, I was starting to think I was the only one that noticed the glitch!!!!eheheh :)

[Bacterium]

yeah I think that's a joke.. Like the Iggy Pop-question: "Do you look up to Iggy Pop?" and the answer is: "no we're all taller than him"..

I think this is just a typical chat with the Offspring; some serious answers, alot of stupid (and kinda fun) answers..

Aren't there more people who think this is not a fake chat?? Cause I've seen interviews with Dexter and Noodles where they say a lot of weird things,
jokes jokes jokes... :o

[Mota___Boy]

I hope its fake cos if not then they seem kinda dull......c'mon guys go crazy and try an answer of more than a single sentence. Questions wheren't exactly probing either tho.....

I think they always have short answers when they're doing chats.. And really, this time they did the chat right before the concert to begin, maybe they were in a hurry.. as the last question is answered..

[platinumpt]

That's as fake as Bush is smart.
Hey let's not jump to politics here!!! (even though I agree with you AHAHAHAHAH)

[Mannen som blev en gris]

Does it really matter if it's real or not? They don't say anything important anyway.....
