EEEEEEE!!!! y'all the meet n greet was SO fast. The guys were so nice but didn't make conversation that much bc time me thinks. Billie said "you have my dog on your shirt!" I laughed and said he should bring the longshot back, we took the picture and I was out the room. I think they brought us to the pr room so the energy in there was so chaotic. Me and my brother were cheesing when we got back to our seats. He got a fist bump from Mike! The set was so fun! same ol songs but I was in need of a concert so I enjoyed it so much.

(Seriously that's freaking amazing!)

So… hey fellas my tickets come with a meet and greet with THEBAND. I plan on wearing that longshot shirt with Lenny on it 😛 hope I amuse Billie with that ahhhhHH

Today is my two-year anniversary of being a part of this amazing community. Thank you so much my GDC family .

@Dingle I have such envy for those who saw them anywhere during AI…but Milton Keynes… fabulous, lucky you. Favourite era, got to be 21CBD (anyone who visits the fangirl thread will know I just adore that era when Billie wore the stiped pants 🔥🔥🔥) and AI which I can’t choose one over the other. Going with Saviors too as it’s been a great tour , Billie is aging better than fine wine and it’s been great to see them all looking well and loving the tour.

I apologize in advance for the shoddy broadcast. Not much I could really do about that..

This one's not such a rare photo but kinda funny. A poster from AstroGirl (a teen entertainment magazine) from the American Idiot era. "Stargazing with Green Day" You might think I possessed this poster because my daughter wanted to be an astronaut but no, it was just part of the collection https://www.instagram.com/p/DTf0Ccagh_i/?igsh=czhiN2l0bWVoM2dl

Wow, had to find my scrawled notes to get total. But hay, thanks loads. I've just been on an emotional rollercoaster reliving all those amazing live show memories. Kerplunk tour 3. Dookie 7 Insomniac 0 (If memory correct only I show in Brixton, when I trashed my motorbike and broke me leg. lol). Nimrod 5 Reading festival 2 (don't really like festivals) Warning 2 AI 6 (including trip abroad to Amsterdam, and found heaven at Milton Keynes) T in the Park, Scotland. 21st Century Breakdown 6 (Wembley Stadium, oh shit, back in heaven again) Trilogy 1 Rev Rad 5 Hela Mega Tour 1 Saviors 4 (including memorable surprise show at Marquis pub in London, as was in town for Saviors promo 2 days later, but was cancelled as band members where sick. I remember being so sad and worried until got news they would be ok, thanks to update on here). Download Festival 1. 42 in total I think. Thanks for the journey GD. Oh shit, the missus has just come in the room, tears running down me face. 😂

NFL being my favourite sport with NHL, I can't wait to see this. Biggest sport in America, Green Day will get fucking mainstream and everywhere if they tell the piggy POTUS to stay quiet on stage. Would be so cool to call him and ICE.

Have you guys listened to "Foreverly", with Billie and Norah jones?? I kept putting off listening to it but i finally did a couple days ago and its pretty incredible

i absolutely love 21cbd billie as well!!! the outfits he wore in and around that era make me wanna steal his closet . i also love all blonde billie eras, so of course 90's and saviors era goes up there too. i can't decide what goes 1st or 2nd or 3rd, so i'll leave it at that... and runner up is fbht billie, mainly for the outfits ❤️

What an amazing question, but so so difficult to answer. There's so many times to choose from, this band's live shows and Billie Joe's songwriting has been so consistent and awesome over past 30+ years. First has to be when I fell in love with GD through Kerplunk and seeing them live for first time at Wigan in Dec' '91. Of the many live shows I've been to, two I'll never forget, 21st Century Breakdown tour at Wembley Stadium and AI tour at Milton Keynes. 2=

15 music albums and songs that proved 1991 was indeed the greatest year for rock and roll Story by Kalzang Uzor Gurung. He says: "1991 was a turning point that reshaped rock, alternative, and pop culture forever. With icons like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Guns N’ Roses, RHCP, and more dropping records, the albums on this list topped charts and changed the sound and direction of the entire decade." And at no. 3 is Green Day with Kerplunk. (should be no 1.) 3. Kerplunk, Green Day (1991) - Lookout! Records Kerplunk introduced their classic trio lineup and showcased the melodic, fast, emotionally charged pop-punk sound that would later take over the world. Songs like “Welcome to Paradise,” “Christie Rd.,” and “2000 Light Years Away” helped them build a fiercely loyal underground following and land a major label deal. Without Kerplunk, there’s no Dookie and no pop-punk boom in the ’90s. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/entertainment/music/15-music-albums-and-songs-that-proved-1991-was-indeed-the-greatest-year-for-rock-and-roll/ss-AA1UtCzN?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=EDGEDB&cvid=696d374fb99d4fd9869b7c3cd5ffe32a&ei=38#image=14:~:text=Sponsored,in the ’90s.

My dad would always sing "woah oh, bitches in paradise" no matter how many times I pleaded with him to stop lol.

This should be great, I am working part of the Super Bowl production for this so excited! Glad to get to work the Super Bowl. Excited to see them perform.

You and all recent new members to join us are most welcome. The GD journey started in '80's, now in it's 5th decade. And the band is still going strong attracting new fans allowing GD into their lives, and we get to share their love for GD on here. Aren't we the lucky ones. ❤️

Tumblr is also a good call for image hosting. It's free and you can post privately if you don't want to post publicly. Unfortunately I don't think Imgur will be unblocked in the UK any time soon.

Rather lose sleep over a thought like that than something negative. 😄 My first place would also be the 21st CB Billie, as in the 21st CB video! Second place would be the classical American Idiot Billie; the level of iconicness is umatched. Third place for me would be the trilogy Billie, mostly because "¡Tre!" Has been my favorite album for years and I really enjoy the trilogy-aesthetic. :'D

Most special thing was them picking a disabled girl to play Knowledge and she rocked it playing the guitar with Billie's help and got to keep the guitar, very awesome Craziest was everything at Foxboro Hot Tubs lol. And strictly at GD my sister passing out in the crazy crowd at Shepherds Bush and getting pulled out but being back dancing to King for a Day 10 minutes later

Those things are always chaotic and too short and after you’re like what did I say but I still can’t believe they even did a meet and greet they never do them on tour

Awesome and I’ll be watching in California too. Now I just hope the Rams are in it and it’ll be perfect. During the Rams/Bears game yesterday they had a commercial for Green Day’s Superbowl appearance and it was really long with clips of concert footage I was psyched to see so much promo for this.

My favorite Billie is American Idiot Billie, but I have a huge bias for that era. I think Saviors might come second, I just really like how healthy, both physically and mentally, he looks right now. Out of curiosity, how many GD shows have you been to?

Good Riddance with the count down was the first thing I saw on instagram today, and my day was better for that

That backstage 'frame' performance is so cool and funny. If one day they make a music video just with funny faces, silly walking etc I would watch it forever and it would probably one of my favourites🙂

I'm gonna record the Radio Broadcast.

I said I'd share my photos of the Christie Road sunrise and the Mendocino landmarks tour, so here they are! I chucked in all my photos of Christie Road and related things. https://atlasandacamera.com/2026/01/17/christie-road/ Mendocino: https://atlasandacamera.com/2026/01/15/green-day-mendocino/

Barbara Allen is my fav track. https://greenday.fm/music/side-projects/billie-joe-plus-norah/

Oh, FBHT Billie is definitely way up there, hadn’t really thought of those shows.

My last item must have been the Saviors (Edition de luxe) colored vinyl, what a beauty it is! 🥰

This is their setlist 1. Fuck time 2. Fuck time (again) (partial) 3. Ordinary world (only for 30 seconds) 4. Dominated love slave (only for 10 seconds) 5. Fuck time (again-again) source: my butt

yesterday (today really, but its 10 minutes to midnight) i got me warning on vinyl! i havent seen it around the stores where i live so i guess im a bit lucky. not the box set, just on it's own, but i'm still happy cuz i love warning

They will perform 'Stuck With Me', 'Armatage Shanks' and yes you guessed it right... 'Take Back' 🔥🔥🔥

This is the opening ceremony in the stadium prior to the game. This is exciting! Performing a selection of their best-known anthems as part of the tribute.

This one‘s clearly for the fangirls😍: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DTpbCA2DL07/?igsh=ZXhzaXZ6OHdtMmxp

Some backstage stuff has been posted on ig https://www.instagram.com/reel/DTpFHNNjuiH/?igsh=a25mb293dHVnNWp2

Nice to have you here!😊

Here's another one. The photos used in this old Italian article are from the same photoshoot as were used on the bootleg CD, Teenage Rampage https://www.instagram.com/p/DTniJjvAt8v/?igsh=MXRsaTBmOTNzNzkxNw==

In my high school days, my best friend loved Green Day. For our school's talent show he performed, "Welcome to Paradise." I was cheering him on in the background.

They’ve been doing a some Superbowl weekend event most recent years but if this one isn’t livestreamed I have to wonder what the point is of promoting an invite only event no one else will get to see

I wonder how we feel about this billie... I think i like this a lot...

You are right. I was lucky enough to see the Coverups in London in Feb 2024 and it really is quite a different Billie. He’s still amazing but it felt more personal and low key. A great experience.

i lost too much sleep debating my top three Billie years 😅 i think i finally came down to 1st place 2009 21st CB tour, 2nd 1993 Billie specifically recording dookie with the longer hair and then 3rd 2013 right after rehab gives me dad/uncle vibes lol id love to hear yours!

Absolutely, they are amazing and add so much to the album. They also got beautiful sites in the fanzine. :D

Nice one, it sure is. I didn't think you could add to Saviors original release it was so good, but Imho the de luxe version with those additional tracks is awesome. And those three new songs, Underdog, Ballyhoo and Smash it Like Belushi, holy shit, they blow me away, I can't stop playing them.

Can't believe I found one of these online over Christmas. It's one of the cool trilogy hoodies (couldn't afford one at the time)
