Look up the one from 2009 -- that's what the one this year will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makingyourmascarableed Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 And they'll probably air about three songs on TV plus a few short clips of them performing scattered throughout the program too (probably will also do mini interview too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last NY show at Webster I couldn't score a ticket so let's hope this makes up for that!! There's no tickets for this right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and no. 1iota is "selling" (they're free) tickets on their website, but even the tickets themselves say you do not need a ticket to attend... I got one just in case, though. I was doing some googling; someone said in 2015 for the One Direction show, they let all VIP ticket holders in first, and they had their own section right in front of the stage. So it's looking like anyone without VIP has no chance of getting in the front row because it's a closed of section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not about the number but rather that it's sectioned off. I can easily make my way to the front of 100 people, but if it's barricaded off, there's nothing you can do. But hey, maybe some people won't show and they'll let some of the non-VIPers in. Im still gonna enjoy seeing my favorite band for free on a beautiful day no matter where I end up, of course.

And does everyone with a ticket from 1iota have the same GA ticket? Or do some people that have been to their events before have VIP tickets?

belinda jane Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 The funny thing about Idiot Nation is that people complain when they don't give their fans good shit, and when they do - hey, look! People still complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 7 hours ago, so-unholy said: Is it definitely sectioned off? They never said anything for sure. They just said the Idiot Nation contest winners will have a "special designated area for Idiot Nation members only". Whether that means in the front, off to the side, etc -- not sure. I was just looking up info on past concerts where they said there was an area directly in front of the stage for VIP that was barricaded off. Not sure if they will be doing that for Green Day. 6 hours ago, belinda jane said: The funny thing about Idiot Nation is that people complain when they don't give their fans good shit, and when they do - hey, look! People still complain. I don't think anyone is complaining; we're just debating on if it's "worth it" to line up if there's a 0% chance anyone without VIP can get in the front. I'm definitely happy that they're giving away free VIP rather than charging $450 for it, and I'm not gonna complain about seeing Green Day for free on a beautiful day!

Makingyourmascarableed Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 From what I've seen with GMA concerts is that it looks like the barrier can hold more than 100 people per row? (Or it may just be the camera angles) My friend and I will get there at maybe 3/4 AM Friday morning. Hopefully someone will be there to let us know what's going on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillenniumFan Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 I'm looking forward to this, as it's more pro-shot material (poorly mixed probably, MTV are the only who usually do an ok job, everybody else seems to be clueless, but whatever). I'm interested to see what they'll play. My guess would be: Bang Bang, Rev Rad and Still Breathing, plus one old song like Basket Case or American Idiot. However, they might also play something different like Say Goodbye, Too Dumb To Die or Forever Now... I don't think they'll play anything acoustic. But we'll see. The last setlists were: SEPTEMBER 14 2012 : Rooftop 1. Oh Love 2. Holiday 3. Basket Case 4. Stay the Night All songs were aired (as there's no real audience on the rooftop to play to otherwise). MAY 22 2009: Central Park (like the upcoming concert) 1. Longview (partial) 2. She 3. Know Your Enemy 4. American Idiot 5. 21st Century Breakdown 6. East Jesus Nowhere 7. The Static Age 8. Jesus of Suburbia Here: She and Longview were partially aired (snippets before the interview), Jesus of Suburbia wasn't aired at all, all others (so 5 tracks) were aired in their entirety. Note: Soundchecked songs were: Know Your Enemy, Murder City, 21st Century Breakdown, At the Library (though this was partial), and American Idiot.

Paola17 Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 So um, based off of circumstances, I don't think I'll be able to go to this anymore. I really thought I'd be able to go to NYC in the middle of the night, but one of the professors whose class I have tomorrow is giving us options on what to attend for a lecture, and it involves tonight or tomorrow in class, and seeing as how I have a different class tonight, I definitely can't miss what we're doing in class. Sigh. Will be watching on TV as much as I can! Hope you all have a wonderful time ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unextraordinarygirl Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 I'll have to wait and watch it online because I'll be at work when they're on. Darn work, it ruins all my fun. Haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for who else is VIP, not sure. No one I knew has a VIP 1iota ticket. So maybe it's for people who work for the press and stuff. And anyone on their guest list. That kind of stuff.
