The return of GDA! Welcome back! The site has had its ups and downs over the years, but I'm glad GDA/GDC has persevered. I've been in and out of fansites throughout the years, but GDA is the only one that has stuck with me. This site and community mean so much to me. I've made friends here, gotten so much support when going through difficult times, and experienced the kindness of other fans. It still blows my mind how people here are willing to help out others and expect nothing in return. It's just fans helping out other fans. And I've received so much love, support, and advice here whenever I was struggling. I've experienced so many life events while on this site: bad breakups, losing loved ones, losing jobs, etc. But no matter how bad it got, GDC was there to help me through it. Sometimes it was venting with others. Sometimes it was just to gwak at Billie and take my mind off of things. This love and support help keep me going, especially in terms of writing. I've been writing independently for 10 years now, and it often feels like you're writing into a void. I've wanted to quit so many times, but just when I wanted to give up, I would get a comment from someone on GDC, and it'd make me smile. I felt good that at least one person took the time to read something I wrote. It inspires me to keep writing. It even helped me join the GDA team! I still remember someone on the board recommending me as a writer for the site, and it meant a lot to me. I'm filled with so much pride and joy everytime I log onto the site and see "GDA Staff" under my cursed profile picture. I remember when I first found the site, thinking the people who got to talk about Green Day all day were the coolest people in the world. I never thought that one day I would join GDA and be part of the cool kids Even though the site has been through some rough times, it's great to see the impact it has had on people. Fans still talk about the site and have good memories tied to it. I hope more folks will visit the site, whether they're new or returning users, because this truly is a special place. Long live GDA.13 points

STAY THE NIGHT! Forever Now! Stuart & the Ave! Redundant!!! One of my lovely friends got onstage and Billie took his pride flag the night before š„¹ Both shows were absolutely incredible but the first one was one of my favourite Green Day shows ever. There was the most amazing atmosphere around us and so many lovely people in the queue š©·10 points

WHAT A SHOW. Hubby said every time he sees them he thinks they canāt be any better, then he sees the next show, Stuart and the Ave nearly made me cry, Forever Now I just love, totally not expecting Stay The Night and I was a little worried his in-ears were an issue but overcame it. Only down side was it was only 90 minutes and Billie had on the long sleeve version of the OEB shirt š. Seriously, they looked and sounded great, it was amazing. Also, some of the new merch is really nice.10 points

No posts at all? We got JAR! that set was phenomenal. I donāt really do festivals but Green day always make festivals feel like a green day show. I canāt put into words how it felt when - after a day of sunshine and heat - it started raining the second Billie sang āhere comes the rain againā. No one could believe it, not even Billie!10 points

Yeah, Zac Carper is Alice Baxley's brother that Billie helped. "The last time Carper left rehab, he was determined to use again. He was depressed, and all of his close friends but Schwartzel had abandoned him. The only others who hung around were still using themselves. Fortunately, he got a call from Green Day lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong, who had gone through addiction problems of his own. He talked to him for an hour on the phone, advising Carper that it was worth it to try to stay clean. āI probably wouldnāt be sober today if Billie Joe didnāt call,ā he says. āHe really helped me when no one else was there.ā "10 points

People on Reddit say lots of things lol. I donāt check in there much, but that particular community seems to have a fixation with thinking heās drinking every time he has some kind of on-stage issue, with most of them going āhey man itās fineeee if he wants to drinkā and all that nonsense. One time they swore he was drinking last year because he was acting weird during a song and lo and behold, thereās a video from right after where heās like āI was just choking on an Advil!ā Lmao. I understand the worry 100% but it takes more for me to be concerned than one meh night where there were other things at play that caused tension. I imagine starting two hours later than scheduled is a big deal for a performer when they have specific rituals to get themselves ready for the show. I mean, Iām just a concertgoer and even Iāve been put in weird moods by rain delays. Having all that built up adrenaline delayed, and worries over whether the event will go on at all, messes with you a bit. I saw GD last year in Philly and Pittsburgh and enjoyed Philly a lot less because it was up in the air all day whether the show could happen because of a hurricane.9 points

I haven't watched the show yet, so I cannot comment on his behavior, but given the whole situation with it being postponed due to the storm, not knowing if it would happen or not, and being on that state of uncertainty for at least an hour, especially for a front man who has said many times he gets stage fright, I imagine is quite enough to put anyone in quite a state. So I wouldn't worry too much, as in all the previous shows he has seemed perfectly fine and quite enjoying himself.9 points

Back in March, I was able to acquire the Japanese guitar magazine that features the photos of Billie's nimrod guitars and rig that were shared last year. The publication is called Cool Guitar - Modern Rock, issue is November 1998. I scanned the pages and translated the article to the best of my ability. I just finished up another video with 182News breaking all of this down. Enjoy!

The setlist for the second night was: American Idiot Holiday Know Your Enemy (w/ fan on stage) Boulevard of Broken Dreams One Eyed Bastard Forever Now Longview Hitchin' a Ride Stuart and the Ave. Brain Stew St. Jimmy Dilemma (w/ Stay the Night snippet) 21 Guns Minority Basket Case She (Billie seemed to have some in-ear issues from that point onwards) When I Come Around Wake Me Up When September Ends Jesus of Suburbia Bobby Sox Good Riddance [Time of Your Life] (w/ Redundant snippet) Billie had his in-ears in and out tonight, so I guess there was an issue. Glad they played an Insomniac track again and I got to hear Forever Now live in person Liked yesterday I recorded the show and it will be up as soon as possible I wasn't lucky tonight getting a physical setlist though.9 points

Brian Wilsonās passing has me pretty emotional today. Any band that plays with vocal harmony has been influenced by The Beach Boys and Green Day is no exception. Finally having this makes me feel the tiniest bit better. Does anybody know how to save this for download?9 points

Thanks Jen, that as a good read. Interesting to hear what he said about his side projects being not just fun things to do but also a way to keep his voice in shape between Green Day projects. Sounds like something that we can count on continuing then (and his voice has noticeably improved since the previous tour)9 points

Hello! Some of your staff may recognize me from Tumblr as greendaychick14. For 12 years (along with others from the Tumblr Green Day fanbase) I have grown up with GDC and GDA. We talk about you on Tumblr still! I no longer update my Tumblr everyday, and I haven't signed into here in at least 9 years! But what I can say is that I check Green Day Authority every week to see what's going on! Thank you so much for creating this community and to your staff for keeping the news up to date! I see Maria posts a lot on here and I just wanted to thank her for updating so often. This community means so much to me, and honestly this site is better and more accurate than Green Day's own site half the time lol. This was part of my childhood and now at 26 years old, after not signing in for 9 years, I am happy to say thank you for all the years of dedication you all put in. And thank you for being so dedicated that you guys were willing to pour your lives and money into making this stay. I hoped one day you would come back on, and I'm so happy I was right and that you did! Rage and Love ā¤ļø8 points

I'm looking at a facebook post by Green Day Italy - Italian Rage and Love - where Billie is talking NEXT ALBUM! He says the ideas are coming along. He's writing lyrics and melodies, messing around with stuff but that nothing will rush them back into the studio right away. The guys want to get back into family life. And Billie has changed his thought process about time off. During the Trilogy, he said "bands go away and when they come back, they aren't as good" but now he says if you don't go away, they won't miss you. And that's good. that's healthy. He wraps it up by saying they are taking their time with what comes next, and want to make sure everybody is hungry for it. Very good. 15th album, that is a milestone. Will it be an experimental record like Father of all or Nimrod? Will it stay kind of in Green Day's lane? I think they figured out on Saviors that you can be incorporate some of those Father of All type experiments as long as there is a big wall of epic guitar surrounding it. If the production is done with love and care and precision - people will be more accepting. Green Day 15. Coming - at some point.8 points

Out of the blue my mom texts me "hey...does Green Day have a song called Underdog?" She just saw the Nat geo ad! š She said she recognized Billie's voice and was like I don't know that Green Day song!! Love that she knows Billie's name and recognizes his voice but refers to Mike and Tre as Mike Dirt and the other one...Mr Cool? š7 points

Billie when the kid played Wonderwall instead of Good Riddance ššš Heās had so many mishaps Iām surprised he still lets people up to do that. What a sport https://www.instagram.com/reel/DLimKjTt1d4/?igsh=MWxleDd6cnRtOGw1MA==7 points

I have to say that some Instagram comment sections about this āincidentā really donāt pass the vibe check. Itās beyond me how some conservatives can literally spread the most hateful messages when it comes to their own political beliefs yet they canāt stand a band that opposes theses views. Itās unbelievable how whiny they are. But yeah, real punks wouldnāt bother, theyād let the crowd throw beer bottles at them and they would certainly NEVER get political.7 points

I bought the tour poster and FINALLY a foam finger. Been looking for one since I've seen them in Bullet in a Bible and never got the chance to get any of the many they had. 20 years later, I'm a proud Green Day foam finger...holder!7 points

I saw them live at Southside and watched yesterdayās livestream and thereās literally nothing that suggests that he was drunk. The difference between the two shows is that there was no thunderstorm and therefore no delay and no time restrictions at Southside. Thatās all. They probably had a little less time and had to rush through some of the songs. It still looked like a good show to me. And him being angry? Thatās human. Iād also be mad if someone tried to distract me all the time.7 points

I tried to like Wunderhorse on the first night but by the second I was out of patience š Still not over how good these shows were though!! Redundant was so beautiful. I don't think it's sunk in that we heard 86 and Stuart & the Ave. One of my friends filmed 86 and all you can hear is us screaming š7 points

Because it seems strange if it was meant with actual bad intent towards a Beach Boys member of all people for no apparent reason. Can't really judge without knowing what he meant/what he was referring to, I don't know enough about Brian Wilson to know. He was sometimes rude on social media just curious why he would be in this case so wanted to find it. Not sure what Joey has to do with anything.7 points

This is really great news! When I first got into Green Day years ago while in my teens, I was fortunate to find a safe community here and on the Idiot Club, to discuss the band, their music, and ultimately form friendships that went well beyond that. I'm happy this place continues to exist and continues to offer to fans, old and new, that same sense of community that I found back then Thanks for working so hard to keep this place going, not just @Fuzz but also all the mods, admins and staff.7 points

Such great news. I found this forum because of GDA. I had never looked at fan sites before that. GDA/GDC changed that and not just because of the band but because of the people on here. Iāve met many and hope to meet many more. This is really a great place and canāt wait to rediscover GDA again. Thanks for all your hard work, Fuzz!7 points
