From Green Day Italia on IG:

wayback machines being annoying so i'm finding it a bit hard to browse. there aren't a lot of snapshots for the page, so these are the only ones i got a hold on i also got 2 of the e cards... not sure if you got those all too, but they were the only ones saved...

It was partial showing, 15 minutes from May 4th 2009 for launch of 21st Century Breakdown release on 15th, seen before and on tube. Played AI, 21 Guns and Know Your Enemy, and included some band interviews. Were shown first, then Chillies, then Muse. Maybe attracted some new fans to our awesome band. Tend to forget what an amazing lead guitarist Jason White is. No worries, it's on UTube, see above. Have an awesome Christmas with your family. ❤️

Nothing at all… Billie deactivated his IG account some days ago. Social media detox probably.

The Classic Rock Station in my town (Rock 101) has been changed to a Country station. The New Rock Station (93.3 the Planet) has said they will have a classic rock show from on Fridays, and will add more Classic Rock to the mix. Green Day is mentioned here: "We are told The Planet will include even more classic rock from iconic artists such as Aerosmith, Def Leppard, Queen and Tom Petty, mixed with active rock favorites including Metallica, AC/DC, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Foo Fighters and Green Day." I looked at 93.3's playlist, and was surprised Boulevard of Broken Dreams isn't in rotation that much anymore. They play Good Riddance, Basketcase, Idiot, September, When I Come Around, Welcome to Paradise, 21 Guns, Brainstew and Jaded.

https://www.facebook.com/greendayinc/videos/billie-joe-armstrong-marshall-headphones-ad-greenday/553484583686674/ Im not sure if anyone has seen or discussed this, but have you all seen the new Marshall ad

Adorable .

I think it's perhaps Marshall Christmas advertising? The headphones came out earlier this year.

At this point, my opinion on Saviors is more or less the same as my opinion on RevRad. A good album but too derivative of what they've done before. It has stronger production & lyricism (at least for the more political tracks) than RevRad but I think RevRad probably has the better songwriting overall and isn't as derivative. I'd say it'll still probably be a couple years before we hear anything about the next album. We might get a couple standalone songs in the meantime like Pollyanna but idk. I hope the next album isn't anything like the Deluxe tracks of Saviors which I felt were particularly weak compared to the standard album tracks. I dislike FOAM but I do hope that the band steps out of their comfort zone a little bit more for the next album. They don't need to change producers, I think we'd all be happy to have Rob stay but they need to change things up a bit.

Nah 3-4 year gap is still plenty of time

this thread is really old but i feel like saying something about bang bang, my friend absolutely hates this song. he made fun of me for listening to it once, but whatever, i understand why some people might not like this song... though i remember seeing green day perform this song for the music awards in 2016. it was the first time i ever had heard the song. and when they did the "no trump, no kkk..." chant, it genuinely stuck to me for a while. that chant alone sort of brought some kind of immediate meaning to the song. i cant decipher lyrics well, so it really felt amazing how something so simple can reach out to me like that. genuinely the one of most relevant parts of a song i've ever heard, and that alone made me love the song so much. i love bang bang.

i would be shocked if the release schedule has a new album in it right now/before 2027 at the earliest

It's a good thought, and although the band deserve a rest, they soon get restless. However, with other things being discussed, the movie, and a hint of a possible live album for 2026, I'm not sure. I've a feeling that the next studio album release could coincide with 21st Century Breakdown's 20th anniversary in 2029?

The Flaming Olive Branch - November 19th, 2027 (haha) Poison in Poseidon's Coffee Mad Season Creepy Crawlees of Habit Mike's A Jerk We're Going Home and no, I'm not going to flood the forum with tracklists but trying to get us back on topic so you guys don't get warnings about the above conversation. I have a lizard in my kitchen.

Welcome! It’s not been released yet, we are all waiting to hear.

It was an amazing thing for Billie Joe to do, inviting a fan to play on stage with the band, even for just a few minutes. You could tell they where gob smacked. So made up, and a special memory that would be with the fan forever. I understand they got a guitar to keep as well? Nice one GD. Yes it's a beautiful song. As far as I know, correct me if I'm wrong, live version at Manchester 2010, part of soundcheck. https://greenday.fm/audio/unreleased-songs/ Hope the link works

still don't know where to put half of these things. not sure if most people here already saw this (and there's a very good chance...) but this is sick! he didn't play the full song, but i love this anyways. awesome kid and awesome song

For those in UK or have access, there's a TV programme on Sky Arts at 2am Monday 22nd, that may be if interest, hopefully. "Live from Abbey Road studios, Season 1, episode 4, the very best of, with Red Hot Chili Peppers, Green Day and Muse." It's 60 minutes long. Says it's new, but that could mean to this channel. I can't recall it, so even if it's old, hope its good. Freeview channel, 36; Sky 124/125; Virgin 123; Freesat 143. Additional series info states: "Top musicians record a session in a studio environment, interspersed with intimate interviews without an audience. Performances range from classic tracks to innovative covers."

I was there (running away from the train 😂) but I wasn't involved in creating the video. I do have loads of photos of the sunrise at Christie Road that I haven't posted yet though. There's also the Tre Edition of the landmarks tour which takes you up to Mendocino and I did that on my last trip. I'll write an article about it eventually! You're very welcome! I hope you can do it one day. Glad to hear it! There's also this post that I wrote about my own experience of doing the tour if you're interested. https://atlasandacamera.com/2025/07/20/welcome-to-paradise/

I'm listening to Fancy Sauce. This song has really grown on me. What a good song. Btw I got bored with Father to a Son. Once great, but now I've kind of lost interest.

I could maybe see a single or two pop up from now through 2027, but I don't anticipate an album release until 2028 at the earliest. My thought is that as the guys get older, we will see longer and longer periods between releases.

It's been extensively talked about over here

Works fine, thank you!😊

woah nice!! and thanks so much <33

Wow, I‘ve just found this on YouTube: I‘m fascinated by the song Dreamcatcher. I guess there’s no decent recording of the song out there somewhere…?🫠

i think i actually have a slight memory of watching this a bit ago... this is awesome glad i didn't have to do some weird vpn shenanigans with apple tv or something.

aww man im in the UK from tomorrow... so ill just miss it 😞 im irish but all my family live in the north and im goin up there for xmas Xb

Thanks again. I have to say I was well impressed the way you took the phone off the hook. The action, the look, real punk attitude. lol. Billie Joe would be proud. 🤪

Speaking of GD landmarks @solongfromthestars: were you a part of this? https://www.instagram.com/reel/DSYXZmYCLMj/?igsh=MWhscTcyazh5a2E2cQ== It is so well made, and I thought I recognized some names in the comments…

Update 2025/12/19: Added scans of my booklet of the Special Limited Edition of WARNING. This booklet was unused, so it was hard to scan. I only scanned the plastic bag (front, back), the front of the digipak, the CD and the special booklet, not the regular booklet). Yes, this is the only version of the "Warning"-CD in a Digipak and as far as I know the only official version where the color of the CD is green, not orange. Here's the folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1NcREWY8wuyegjxcxOwXZ3Ar7eggyU0RO?usp=sharing Another update with magazine scans will follow soon

The early version of American Idiot album didn't include She's A Rebel and Letterbomb is named as Clusterbomb. There's a photo of that early version online and somewhere in my computer, if I find it later, I will post it. It's more like the version of the album which is forwarded to the record label for approval. ***On the other hand, may anyone post the scan of the AI 20th booklet where Rob Cavallo talks about C&V ??

it makes sense and all.. but I'd wish he'd just delete the app 😭

Thank you so much!

I was trying to browse archive.org with some luck. Does anyone have all the old wallpaper or images from the past GD sites?

Oh okay, thank you ! Yeah I just saw it a few weeks ago and was wondering if it was new or not.

Wow, that's as good as the one that came with Dookie 30th. I can imagine how difficult that was as you said. I'm sure your proud of it. I understand about hating the other one. An artist strives for perfection. It it's not right, the only option is to trash it and start again. You will succeed.

I like it, it looks great!👍

does this count? i made this art class yesterday. i made a pin of billie joe in his cup noodle costume as well, but it turns out i forgot 2 lines and now i hate it. anyways, i wasn't sure to put it in the fan art thread or this one, since i drew it myself. i could've done better, but it's pretty hard to draw on a 2.5cm circle.

this is absolutely incredible thank you so much! its so nice to see the actual places with all their "history" i want to visit the united states at some point in my life, but not now with the orange kid in the office

New GDA article featuring my photos from 924 Gilman Street this year. https://www.greendayauthority.com/news/6271/

I've got this special edition as well. I've read all the mags/articles. Looking forward for your next update. Thanks again for sharing, it's really appreciated.

Fan drawings of the band, album covers, backgrounds etc etc

Christmas presents to myself. Finally got the colour vinyl Dookie box set. Even with a set of pin badges and shipping it was less than half the price of the UK store in the sale of the US store which is insane.

Bang bang needs to be the opener in concerts that song rocks live I wish they didn’t drop it

It was fun! I remember getting soooo exciting and felt like i was solving a crime every time I watched the teasers lol. I was like "what does it mean?!" haha at that point i should've had a corkboard with some pins and some red string

I’d love it if he would be a bit more open and extend the olive branch. I love GD and have my whole life seen em live 5 times. Amazing but sometimes he can be a bit harsh if others don’t agree with everything he does politically. We all get his opinions and I respect them but there are fans who might have some opposite views then he does and I think that’s ok. Peace of identity politics

He once outrageously claimed he's 5'8 as well (top of last column in this interview full of great stuff including him also pointing out that Tom Cruise is shorter than him) http://www.greendayauthority.com/articles/121/1/ Some serious rounding up going on

You are so right! I’ve always said he’s the perfect height when some folk appear to be saying he is too small for them, I’ll take him 😉😉 @Montclare I think there are pics of BJ without the hat and he looks fractionally taller than Matt Bellamy, would need to see his feet though 😂😂. He’s def taller than Tom Cruise, that’s a fact!
