All Activity

Part of the problem with tickets was because people had already bought tickets to see the rest of the line up a while ago (so half the tickets were probably already gone) before the Cover Ups announced they were joining the line up. That together with the fact that the Tiki Bar only has a capacity of 150.

I guess with social media getting word round so fast there's really no way to prevent it with an online sale now then. Shame they don't figure out a way to do it similar to when they did it through the fanclub.

Not sure it’s any easier when this show also sold out out in minutes

Different opinions are different. There's nothing cringe with that Biggest problem with RR is the production. Quiet parts are too quiet and loud parts are too loud. Songs like Bang Bang and Outlaws suffer heavily from this, but when Forever Now gets more epic and adds more guitars, it also suffers from this and becomes a mess that is impossible to listen and enjoy. I'm not a fan of lyrics on any songs, although line ''fuck you i'm from oakland'' is kinda funny. It was also too serious and and too real album for my taste, if Saviors was nothing but heavy tracks like Dilemma, I wouldn't enjoy it. Albums need to have dumb fun songs (that also hopefully sounds as good as Corvette Summer), but if those tracks are missing or those tracks are just not great songs (Youngblood), album isn't great. Lastly, RR was seen as ''return to form'' which I disagree the most with and I saw it as taking a step back after Trilogy. It didn't feel like natural evolution (except on lyrics I suppose) musically, but rather fan service with thought of ''ye we fucked up with trilogy so heres an album that is closer to american idiot/21st century breakdown sound''. Aaand that's enough of RR discussion in this thread from my end.

Special one today. 9 years ago, Green Day were inducted into the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame. They also played the LA Sports Arena 11 years ago today. The 99 Revolutions Tour was 11 years ago? WHAT?! HELP. 19 years ago, they played the USF Sun Dome in Tampa on the American Idiot Tour. There was a review up at some point, but the links are dead, so all we've got is "Billie Joe Armstrong asserts his personality while performing with Green Day on Monday night before a sold-out crowd." 30 years ago, Green Day played the Satyricon club in Portland.

No one knows what Mike and Tre have going on their lives that day to make the judgement that they don't feel the same about it. Also when it's a side band it makes it easier for fans to get tickets than if it's Green Day so it's a huge plus for fans that it's Coverups

With that time limit they can also fit other songs too Wish they would promote Dilemma btw

The venue posted about the 2012 show (and this one) https://www.instagram.com/p/C536D2LP1kb/?igsh=MWhuM2YyY2RjcnNmdg== In 2012 I remember staying up all night waiting for tweets that a GDCer was posting for us from the venue!

I think the real sign that Saviors is a great album is it had been put for 3 months and everyone still has different favorites and least favorites. Really has something for everyone on it. The last time I remember something like this was 21CB. Every album from that seems to have a majority consensus on favorites.

in what context? like structurally or are the songs bad too to you?

Cringe

Important context is that I consider RR as their worst album.

Naaaah

Last time they played in Tiki Bar, they were hilariously drunk and performed probably sloppiest and slowest Jesus of Suburbia ever. Whole Foxboro + Green Day set was the most beautiful trainwreck I have ever seen. This time around it's probably gonna be more chill, but I find it awesome how they have a such history with Tiki Bar. Performing 16-17 new Trilogy tracks as Green Day out of nowhere in 2011 and then 2019 set as The Coverups, which changed to Foxboro + Green Day. Oh, it was also Tre's birthday. Wonder will he be there this time around? Anyways, that beautiful trainwreck of a set.

I can’t make that date but just came here to say this is very sweet of him to do this extra show for fans who missed out on Echoplex. Wish Mike and Tre felt the same way and they could do an extra Green Day show but Billie’s the best 🥰

All those bands sound pretty good.

To show Green Day that The Network is going to take over if they're not careful! I'm so thirsty for a new Green Day live release that I was forced to purchase The Network DVD instead!! The best way they can fix the situation is do some club shows to tell The Network step off of their territory!! They could do a few shows in the midwest like...oh I dunno Chicago...just throwing it out there. Are you listening Billie?

Yeah why are you posting about The Network in a Green Day forum anyway? This isn’t the “You know you’re a Network fan when…” thread 😜

When you keep repeating your hilarious joke about The Network NOT being Green Day ad nauseum to the point your partner says "The joke is old! This isn't the Green Day fangirls forum! I know the joke!" Needless to say, he prefers The Network

And got the sold out message. That’s it

This sale hurt my feelings :(

#8000 in the queue this time, for a smaller venue than the Fillmore... Good luck all! Take lots of video if you go!

No ticket luck yet again today. I've tried for all three shows in the past few weeks. Looking for one!! Please!!!

Hell yeah. Ended up being #7791, would love to tag along if you score!!
