  1. Tre just came back on to give someone some drum sticks. The kid lost his drumstick he caught at a Green Day show in the fires and Tre came out and gave him two.

  3. Regardless of the quality of the other nominations, The Beatles winning a Grammy in 2025 is a naff gimmick, especially when AI had to be used to lift Lennon's voice from an ancient tape. No, that's not quite the same as someone using AI to write a song, but as far as I'm concerned no art is 'legit' if AI is involved in its creation.

  4. It took me years to get a live used guitar from one of the Reverb sales, but i finally got one. London vintage guitars received the BJ junior in a trade from the original buyer, and they posted it for sale. They accepted my offer and i got it. I asked about the guitar before purchasing, and i was told it all original including the dirty strings Billie played, which is what i wanted. The guitar has tons of body checking on the front and back, and there is dried up dirt/sweat on the front of the body and pickguard. Some interesting things about the guitar i found after months of searching: The guitar was used for a handful of shows and only for the song Forever Now The nut had a little piece added after a few shows, which helped photo match the guitar to a few photos Billie added the "BJ" stickers after a few shows, which he moved around a few times The guitar was used for the private KROQ "Green Day plays your garage" show The guitar was on set for the "Back in the USA" music video I have attached photos i took of the guitar, the Reverb COA signed by Billie, and some photos of Billie using the guitar on tour. Enjoy!

  5. Haven't stopped listening since it came out and don't think I will for a long time! Agree it's been such a great era! Beautiful album and phenomenal live shows

  6. The show was so much fun omg! My brother and I got one back from barrier behind @solongfromthestars and @Rumpelstiltskin2000 with great view between Billie and Jason! Just a "regular" setlist I think but it was great, danced the whole time and it was just awesome watching them play up close https://imgur.com/6emTrSj It was a bit dumb that they didn't have an encore because it meant the crowd chanted for one and got disappointed (especially as it took ages for the lights to come on) but we thought it was funny 😆. Billie did state clearly that it was the last song to be fair.

  9. I can go with RS winning, their age shouldn’t matter at all as long as the humans are still making music - just my opinion, but the Beatles record is a complete fake and that I object to. Surely the likes of the Grammies should be trying to protect actual musicians and artists and not grouping AI/faked “music” alongside human performance but I guess with the amount of shit already out there that that boat has sailed! On a positive note, if you have to lose, losing to the Beatles and the Stones is no shame. I’ve never heard of St Vincent before, will need to look them up. As already said, the guys looked great and had fun on the red carpet.

  11. I really loved that they chose such emotional and meaningful songs. It was really touching to hear Last Night on Earth and Still Breathing back to back — Still Breathing always makes me a bit teary, but they really got me this time. They make me so proud!

  12. Just watched the video. Wow, what a wondeful, dignified and moving performance. I had shivers all the time. With all the bad news around the world and all the shit that's happening lately, this gave me a tiny spark of hope that we'll be alright again one day🥹

  14. The following statement has appeared on fromt page of greenday.fm:- January 28, 2025 – 7:15PM GREENDAY.FM IS CLOSING First of all, thank you to everyone that has visited this site over the past 6.5 years and especially those who have contributed their time and energy to help build it. Huge thank-you to Todd who was instrumental in building the audio archive and also contributing a ton of research and knowledge to all areas of the website. Due to a lack of time to properly commit to maintaining and growing this website, GreenDay.fm will permanently shut down on March 9, 2025. Starting today, there will be no further news updates or updates to any of the pages on the site. Our sister site, GreenDayLive.fm, will continue on and some features from this site will be moved there. This site originally launched way back in 1996 and died out about 6 years later in 2002. So I guess it’s fitting that the resurrected version of that old website would suffer the same fate after 6 years as well. Thank you again for visiting, hope to see you all on our Discord and at GreenDayLive.fm. – Jason This is devastating news. I can't believe this is happening. I feel so sorry for Jason who has dedicated his life to the current and previous site launched in 1996. The information on this site, a lot where you can listen to unreleased songs, demos and covers, live performances and much much more. There's also loads of stats that will be lost. Hopefully some info can be saved as suggested on sister site greendaylive.fm. I don't know if this is possible but can some of the databases be passed to GDA? Thank you so much Jason for all your hard work and efforts. I've really loved your site, and I have learnt so much more about this band thanks to you. I will miss it very much. Every happiness to you for the future.

  16. 4 February 2025 On this day 27 years ago (4 February 1998), Green Day played Ancienne Belgique in Brussels, Belgium on the Nimrod Tour. 32 years ago (4 February 1993), Green Day played Emo's in Houston, TX. More photos (by juarezma on Flickr): 5 February 2025 On this day 8 years ago (5 February 2017), Green Day played the FirstDirect Arena in Leeds, England on the Revolution Radio Tour. I wasn't supposed to go to this show either Someone on Twitter was selling a pit ticket for face value and I was already in Manchester, so I got the train to Leeds and sprinted off to the arena. Not sure why I bothered running when I was going to get there at doors anyway, but the barrier was so long that I did get onto the end. The recap I wrote back then: 'In all honesty, I hadn’t slept for days and I was exhausted, my ribs were bruised from Paris and I was panicking about the Manchester queue. The crowd initially seemed unresponsive too, until Billie roared "I want to hear your loud English voices!" and it was as if we all woke up. I was no longer tired and it was a surreal experience, being back where it all began for me, in arenas in England. Because there is no experience like Green Day in England. There’s no energy like this, no atmosphere like this, anywhere else. To be one of those voices, a collective voice so loud it feels like it could shake the bowels of the earth – it’s surreal. I’m not at all patriotic, but Billie screaming "fuck you I’m from ENGLAND!" at the top of his lungs in Youngblood, then thanking us for welcoming him home was something else. They also played Armatage Shanks and I may have temporarily died (of happiness, obviously).' More photos: 20 years ago (5 February 2005), Green Day played the Brighton Centre in Brighton, England on the American Idiot Tour. More photos: 27 years ago (5 February 1998), Green Day played the Live Music Hall in Cologne, Germany on the Nimrod Tour. 31 years ago (5 February 1993), Green Day played Club Clearview in Dallas, TX. This will be my last post in here for a bit. I'm very sad to have to leave it when I'm so close to finishing the project, but I'm so busy and stressed that I'm on the verge of a meltdown (not looking for sympathy, just explaining) and then I'll be away without my laptop for a while. If people are interested I can post the stuff I'll miss when I've got more time. Otherwise I'll resume the project when I can, probably in mid-March. I have prepared over a month of stories and posts for the GDA Instagram. They're not as in depth but they do give some information.

  17. Can I ask that this forum follow along with the Green Day subreddit and every other major subreddit and ban Twitter/X links from now on? Screenshots if you must but I would rather see the whole site shunned after the owner turned full Nazi. Just ask yourself what Green Day would do. Nazi punks fuck off and fuck Twitter/X. Let’s close this thread

  18. Absolutely, so cool to see him just enjoying playing songs he likes and stepping back whenever Jason was singing lead Another important detail: he was wearing skinny jeans

  19. He looked so handsome at the show. 🥹 I have a particular thing for watching him play these shows rather than Green Day shows — he’s not in frontman mode as much, he’s just chill hanging back and playing guitar. It’s really cool to see.

  24. Love is for Losers aside, I'm so happy they played Ever Fallen In Love and Summer of 69 again! And Teenage Kicks, even if Billie did refuse to play it a second time 😤 I shouted "NO!" when he said it was their last song (and of course several others shouted it too) and that was when he said "but we don't know anything else" 😂 There was so much funny banter! The Speedways were really good too. So glad there wasn't a special guest onstage with The Coverups though. We got to hear Billie singing Surrender instead of Courtney Love

  26. Oh my god it really is the same thing every time. It sucks that it's in every comment section but it's just cringe Trump worshippers who were never fans. It's not people who used to like them changing their opinion it's just haters and people who know nothing about them getting exposed to posts about them when they wouldn't have in the past because of how shitty the Facebook algorithm is now purposely ragebaiting people to comment by showing them things their demographic might dislike. The lesbian comment is so stupid because they wouldn't even consider it an insult since they're not bigoted losers.

  29. Ugh I can't believe they didn't win a single one! I was certain they would take home at least one award. Losing to the Stones? Fine, they at least put out a new album. But the Beatles? As far as I know, that was a previously unreleased song and they automatically get nominated? That fucking blows.

  32. Just got around to watching the performance because I’m at work and I do layout for a local paper and my coworker asked what photos from the concert she should use and who everyone liked and I still kind of new to the position and she’s remote but I was like “look, I’m a biased Green Day fan so I have to go with them and Billie Eilish”. Decided I should back up my statement by actually watching the show and wow LNOE hit me more than I thought it would. Basically what I’m saying is if you’re in Northeast Ohio and you see Green Day in tomorrow’s paper. You’re welcome.

  37. Just wanted to come back after some sleep and say again just how fun this was. It was my first time seeing the Cover Ups (had a ticket for last year but wasn't well enough to go and gave my ticket to a friend) I didn't want it to end and could have danced all night. I'm so happy I was able to make it through the show after the last few years of barely being able to walk. The guys sounded so good and gave it their all including Chris who Billie said had been drinking since 6 am 😂 Absolutely loved Suffragette City, American Girl, Should I stay or should I go, Message of Love, Million Miles away and of course Love is for losers - honestly everything. One of security kindly gave me Jason's setlist. The Speedway's were a great opening act. I briefly spoke to them at the end and they gave me their promo CD. Go listen to them now! Saw loads of people I hadn't seen in years and I hadn't rocked out so hard since I don't remember when. All in all amazing evening and so happy to spend it with @solongfromthestars @palestardust and another friend. Couldn't have done it without you 💖 I'd forgotten how much I'd missed going to gigs. I'll stop gushing now 😂 Next time I hope 💖

  38. That was the best show of all the London ones so far!!! Everything sounded amazing, even Drain You which I despise. My feet were killing me but of course it didn't stop me "going feral" (someone else's description ) to Love is for Losers. Billie didn't "forget" the lyrics this time. Most of all I'm so happy that I finally got to dance and sing all night with @Rumpelstiltskin2000 after she had to leave the Wembley show. Other than a few people there was a lovely atmosphere queuing with @PaleStardust and another friend. Random people grabbed our hands and waved along. I almost couldn't be bothered when it was announced and I was so anxious on the day that I questioned whether it was worth it, but I'm SO glad I went. So glad we got to see you again and you got a good spot @Hermione I don't remember if we said goodbye!

  39. Joining this debate way too late, but I cannot refrain from a good discussion, sorry. No, absolutely zero issues with this. Actually, I think it's great that they're going precisely because of the disregard of UAE authorities for gay rights, women's rights, and so on. Even if they don't openly comment anything during the concert and even if Billie refrains from kissing any male band members during the show (which for their sake I hope they do refrain from doing these things), just performing songs such as Coming Clean or Bobby Sox during the concert is already a way of creating a space for LGBTQ people during the concert and sending the message that there's nothing wrong with who they are. Exposing the people there to the message that is inherently embedded in Green Day songs is way more beneficial, in my opinion, than Green Day choosing to not to play there would be. Cultural isolation would just be more harmful to the process towards more rights and freedoms for oppressed groups. If Green Day decided not to play in the UAE because their government is oppressing LGBTQ people and women, it would have absolutely zero effect in the government. I can guarantee you government officials would lose zero sleep over this. The only people who would suffer are fans in the country or in the region who have no other opportunities to see the band. I know that if Green Day had decided not to play in Venezuela because the government is autocratic, women's rights are undermined, and gay rights at best don't exist, at worse gay people are persecuted, and there is heavy censorship and repression against opposition, the Venezuelan government wouldn't have even noticed, but me and all the other fans at the show, and specially those who were not as privileged and couldn't afford to travel to another country to see them, we are the ones who would have been crushed by that (not to mention that from comments in their Twitter account and during the show Green Day seemed to be pro-Chavez, but I choose to forget that 🙃). All that said, I think it's up to people and activists in the UAE to voice how they'd rather be supported - they know their situation better than any of us do. If activist groups there are or were asking Green Day to cancel the show to boycott the government there, then that's another story and I think in that case Green Day should indeed support their request. But I don't know if such thing has come up. Now, the other side of the coin for me is how those of us who don't live in the region, specially EU and US based folks, who have plenty of opportunity to see Green Day in other countries, and would actually have to travel to the UAE for the show, choose to engage with this show. I wouldn't go to this show because I wouldn't want to spend any money in the country that could translate to more tax income to the government there. I'd rather see them anywhere else. But I don't judge anyone who might decide to go, because I also know the impact we have as individual is quite limited (again UAE government won't loose any sleep over loosing that tax I would have paid for the hotel), and you could also argue that exposing locals to individuals with different beliefs and mindset is positive for keeping the country moving towards a more inclusive model.

  41. In a way you can’t feel bad about losing to The Beatles and The Stones but on the other hand, how long are bands going to have to keep losing to the Beatles and the Stones? Like everyone I thought they had the best shot at Dilemma for song that one really hurts. This album may be their last best chance at Grammy recognition. Very sad about it 😢

  42. @jengd I agree. Don’t get me wrong, I think she’s talented, but I can’t deal with the whisper-singing style she’s so attached to. Still, I think the collab of young, newer artist + 90s artist is really cool and if they wanted to record a studio version, it would probably be a huge boost for FireAid. I get excited when Green Day does stuff with younger artists because I feel like it gives them such great exposure to the younger crowd!
