Wrote about this tattoo in another thread, so here it is. It healed well and I‘m VERY happy with it!

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

Found this pic on IG. Isn’t it cute how they are holding hands?🥰

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/

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.

I'd usually encourage any Green Day fan with the means to do the 'pilgrimage' to do it. It's an incredible experience. Of course I have an article for that, too https://atlasandacamera.com/2025/01/29/green-day-landmarks/ But yeah, but the vibes aren't amazing right now, even in California. It'll be a better experience when things change.

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. ❤️

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. 🤪

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

@solongfromthestars this is amazing. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I could kiss you. If we can't visit Green Day land in person just yet, what you have made and shared is the next best thing. I'm overwhelmed, sorry, I'm all emotional. I will read and study this article very carefully, you've made me so happy.

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

From Green Day Italia on IG:

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

From Green Day Italia on IG:

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.

Adorable .

Maybe he needed to feel some comfort and safety…😅

It also looks like Billie is really squeezing Tré's hand lol. They're so cute hahah

Me proposing to my GF when Billie started Bobby sox, I was shitting my pants

So cute! Also, Billie Joe looks so handsome in that coat. 😍

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

Oh I‘d love to see your sunrise photos. From what I’ve seen until now the scenery around Christie Road seems magical… I can imagine how it inspired this beautiful song.

I like it, it looks great!👍

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…

That’s awesome! You don’t have it on video, do you…?

happy boys

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."

Yes!!! I’d love to see all those GD landmarks, too. But California is so far away. And I hate flying.😕 And the current US politics aren’t inviting either. But maybe sometimes in the future…

@solongfromthestars thank you so much, again. I've been on link to GDA. Those photos are amazing, got a real sense of what it's like being inside Gilman Street. You've inspired me even more to visit the bay area, where the GD story began. And places the band talk about in their songs, Christie Road for example. Thanks again, your a star.

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.

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

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.

Awesome! The article and those photos are really impressive!😍

now that makes me a little curious. but i think i get why...

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.

It annoyed everyone on here, rah hey.

We have 100s of CDs which we loaded onto a pc and then iPods (yes, I know but they were brilliant in so many ways) but iTunes/Apple music has become such a nightmare that last year we switched to streaming. I really hate how Spotify etc treat artists but what is the alternative? We still have some iPods and hubby has been looking into going back to an old version of iTunes but it’s a pain. I am torn between the convenience of streaming versus physical media. Physical media will always be better to me but the bulk can become huge. As @Dingle said, nothing beats the whole experience of buying that album, looking at the sleeve, reading the notes but goodness it’s easier to move a smart phone around!

It's been extensively talked about over here

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 😭

oh, fair enough then

Right? Also, the guys making a a birthday video for someone the admire was the wholesome content I didn't know I needed last week
