There won't be a Trump album. Billie has been vocal about not wanting to write about him if he can help it. Of course it has inspired a few songs despite him saying that, but I doubt it will be a major influence. There certainly won't be any songs about him turning out to be great. Billie has felt this way about him for much longer than most people have been aware he exists. Personally I'd rather have more lost love songs than an anti-Trump album. It won't change anyone's opinion. What is there to say about Trump that hasn't already been said by a million different people on both sides, anyway? He's what he is. We all know that whether we like him or not.

Billie comes in 36 minutes into the broadcast

Saviors is up for Best Rock Album Grammy for 2025!

Ugh I still haven't recovered from amount of spam and pointless theories in the 1972 thread..

I agree, it felt sort of all over the place like HLAHG did and it didn’t tell a compelling story clearly. They should have gone deeper into the interviews about where the band really was at the end of the Warning era, with a triumphant finish to where they ended up. They did that loosely but more interviews with the people involved like Rob Cavallo, Warner execs, etc. cut all the repeat footage from HLAHG and BIAB and for god’s sake give up on the story that the tapes were stolen and just tell the truth. Instead of “we had a lot of fun on tour”, show how they first wrote an okay album, their career was on the line, the label pushed them to do something better and with hard work and sacrifice (like two divorces and a DUI) they got there and succeeded. It’s an emotional story if they ever want to really tell it.

Can we finally have Dreamcatcher, Oh Girl, Minnesota Girl, and Olivia? Please?

So basically you're opening a new album speculation thread?

7 years ago yesterday (5 November 2017), Green Day played in Curitiba, Brazil on the Revolution Radio Tour. More photos: 9 years ago (5 November 2015), Green Day played at the afterparty for the first screening of Ordinary World at the 41 Ocean Club in Santa Monica, CA. A few fans won entry through the Idiot Club. More photos: 15 years ago (5 November 2009), Green Day played Know Your Enemy and Minority at the EMAs. They won the Best Rock award. They were also nominated for Best Group (Tokio Hotel won) and Best Live Act (U2 won). More photos: 19 years ago (5 November 2005), Green Day played Wake Me Up When September Ends on the German TV show "Wetten, dass?" 24 years ago (5 November 2000), Green Day played the Civic Center Plaza in San Francisco, CA on the Warning Tour. "It was supposed to be a 'million band march.' It didn't quite make it to a million bands… a lot of my friends were getting thrown out of Downtown Rehearsal Studios, a place that bands had been practicing for years, because the new owners wanted to raise all the rents. That sort of hit home with me because it was about music and art, and it wasn't just that studio; every day you could read in the paper how it was getting worse and worse for musicians in San Francisco. Rents were skyrocketing, even to the point where clubs were having a hard time staying open. After a while it starts to piss you off, and I thought my band could at least help bring attention to the issue. It's funny, because there a guy who buys and sells property who hangs out at my mom's work, and he was telling her, 'Oh, your son doesn't understand.' Well, that’s obviously coming from someone who doesn't see the other side, that's never even been on the other side, that doesn’t know what it's like to be thrown out of where you live." — Billie Joe More photos: 26 years ago (5 November 1998), Green Day played the Ginásio Mineirinho in Belo Horizonte, Brazil on the Nimrod Tour. 27 years ago (5 November 1997), Green Day played the Embassy Music Hall in Orlando, FL on the Nimrod Tour. 29 years ago (5 November 1995), Green Day played the State Farm Show Arena in Harrisburg, PA on the Insomniac Tour. 33 years ago (5 November 1993), Green Day played in Mannheim, Germany. ---------------------------------- On this day 8 years ago (6 November 2016), Green Day played Bang Bang and American Idiot at the EMAs in Rotterdam.

More photos: For now I'm carrying on. I decided to stop, then predictably felt sad about it after putting in all this work. I'll say if I do eventually decide that a post is going to be the last one.

https://www.billboard.com/charts/billboard-200/ Due to 20th anniversary release, according to greenday.fm, original album American Idiot is listed as re-entry to Billboard top 200 albums at number 39. Nice one https://www.officialcharts.com/charts/albums-chart/ And re-entry to UK top 100 albums at 32

Lmao that video with Tre and the candle. Trillie is still real!

Seriously, can we rename or do something with this thread? I don’t want to be reminded about the goddamn election results every time I log on here. I’m depressed enough as it is.

Guys! Green Day is nominated for best Rock Grammy for 2025! The Grammys are currently announcing 2025 nominees and Haley Williams just announced best Rock Nominees. Saviors is up for the Grammy!! Congrats boys!!! AHHHH Billie is on the nomination broadcast!!! He announced record and album of the year! I am losing my shit at work!!! I didn't know he was appearing, so it was a total surprise! Sadly, Green Day did not make the cut for these categories

On this day last year (7 November 2023), Green Day played the Magazzini Generali in Milan, Italy on the Saviors Tour. More photos: 7 years ago (7 November 2017), Green Day played the Anfiteatro do Beira Rio in Porto Alegre, Brazil on the Revolution Radio Tour. More photos: 8 years ago (7 November 2016), the Still Breathing music video was released. This is one of Green Day's best videos. I love all the different storylines and how they're all connected despite being completely different, which was what Billie said he wanted to achieve with the song. And of course it's lovely to see the ending where Billie returns to the practice space and Mike and Tre are there waiting for him. 12 years ago (7 November 2012), the Stray Heart music video was released. That's one of my favourite songs but I admit I don't care about the video because the band aren't in it. 26 years ago (7 November 1998), Green Day played Via Funchal in São Paulo, Brazil on the Nimrod Tour. They were also interviewed there. More photos: 27 years ago (7 November 1997), Green Day played The Roxy in Atlanta, GA on the Nimrod Tour. 32 years ago (7 November 1992), Green Day played at 924 Gilman Street. 33 years ago (7 November 1991), Green Day played Kulturstation in Munich, Germany. 35 years ago (7 November 1989), Green Day played Komotion in San Francisco, CA.

I made a Blue (RevRad era stickers) Xmas ornament.

I don’t appreciate the judgemental comments. I have been an observer on this forum for a long time, a life long GD fan, and when I had this piece of info I wanted to share with you. I’m not going to disclose exactly which band member told me what. If you don’t want to believe then don’t and wait for the news.

Not sure this is really the right place for this, but an interesting article about the sound set up, from the way the crew behave and are treated if nothing else. https://www.tpimagazine.com/the-saviors-tour-eighth-day-sound-supports-green-days-return-to-the-circuit/

"let’s put our politics aside" Proceeds to state matter of factly that Americans will be better off with Trump in charge and suggests BJA has been wrong in his criticism of the guy. OP's on the wind up. 😆

Billie has said he gets no inspiration from Trump and doesn’t want to give him that attention, and I don’t blame him. Amazingly, I feel like the most effective things that could be said on this topic were already addressed on American Idiot. That album is proving to be ahead of its time in a rather unfortunate way.

The documentary definitely has its shortcomings. I also thought it would have more of a narrative and take us through the timeline of everything leading to American Idiot and beyond. But I still enjoyed all the fun bits we got especially things we didn't get on HLAHG and BIAB. Definitely feel like there was more they could've done, but I'm still happy with it. I had a good time watching it, whereas HLAG is decent....but then I remember the dance number in the beginning and I get mad all over again. Really disappointed that a disc was wasted on that.

Billboard chart update- Alternative Airplay: 8 (up from 11 ) Rock & Alternative Airplay: 7 (up from 8) Mainstream Rock Airplay: 11 (up from 13) Canada Rock- this chart seems to have disappeared. Comes up as a page 404 and isn't showing as an option under GD as an artist either.

Just had a newborn it was easier just asking not really have time to search for it. Thanks @ThranaM!!

Just realised, 90 days until I see Green Day!!

Billie’s vocal delivery on Nothing Ever Happens reminds me a lot of Turn Me Loose from Love Is For Losers which is great because that song is one of the best things he’s ever done imho.

🚨 ATTENTION! 🚨 The insignificance of Green Day cannot be overstated. Before we allow the author to continue po̴̢̩̗̲̬̹̯̿͆͜sting about this pathetic band, the representative̸̛̤̠̺͛̈́͋̋̏͘s of The Network must make clear what is truly important. 21 years ago in the timeframes that earthlings understand (22 November 2003), the greatest band in this universe and all alternate ones visited your planet. They actually played the Key Club in West Hollywood for a crowd of mere mortals. Such benevolent men! The seminal film “Disease Is Punishment” was recorded on this fateful night. Facts about The Network: 🚨 They are not Green Day. 🚨 They were brought together by an ancient prophecy. 🚨 The members include Mongo Fink, Van Gough, The Snoo, Z, Captain Underpants and Balducci. 🚨 Those who do not evolve will find themselves disconnected from The Network. 🚨 Some say they are Swiss, but it is more likely that they just use Swiss passports when they visit Earth, as they probably hail from planets we are yet to discover or even the vacuum of space itself. 🚨 They are experienced travellers of space and time. 🚨 They founded the Church of Lushotology. 🚨 Van Gough does not remember who he is after finding himself in an alternate universe. His ordeal was emotionally recounted in the hit song Amnesia Vagabond. 🚨 They are not Green Day. 🚨 While The Network were on one of their many intergalactic tours, a squatter moved into The Snoo’s flat. They left McDonald’s wrappers in the trash and… something worse in the sink. 🚨 Mind control is another one of their talents and was used to write this post. 🚨 Spike is still waiting for his mother to give him $200. Due to the duration of his wait, he now needs $2,000. 🚨 Billy Jo of the inferior band Green Day has said, “All I gotta say is fuck The Network. These guys are totally spreading rumors." 🚨 The mortal we are currently mind controlling wrote a Pokémon fanfiction featuring some masked musicians named Van Der Gouge, Bongo Blink, The Poo, X and Lieutenant Diaper. Naturally, these geniuses exposed the story’s criminal syndicate. The Network are supreme, even when found in garbage! 🚨 Hey Elon! You are too late. The Network have already visited Mars. 🚨 They have also proved it’s flat, like Mercury and Earth. 🚨 Billy Jo has continued to harass these innocent time travellers, even saying “fuck Switzerland” after playing a few lines of the incomparable Money Money 2020 at a New Year’s Eve party in 2019. 🚨 They are not Green Day. Disinfect, sả̶̲̙̃̀̒̈́̔̈̓̌͊́͂̎̕t̶̬̖̠̳̫̜̮̺̎͑̔̽̉̃͌̓͊͊̅͊̌̕ellite, disconnect, good night! ...Looks like those Swiss bastards got me again, but anyway. On this day 8 years ago (22 November 2016), Green Day played Bang Bang and Still Breathing on the Late Late Show with James Corden. More photos: 15 years ago (22 November 2009), Green Day played 21 Guns at the American Music Awards in LA. They won the Favorite Alternative Rock Artist award. More photos: 20 years ago (22 November 2004), Green Day played 8 songs on Jimmy Kimmel Live in Hollywood. More photos: 27 years ago (22 November 1997), Green Day played the Agora Ballroom in Cleveland, OH on the Nimrod Tour. 29 years ago (22 November 1995), Green Day played the UIC Pavilion in Chicago, IL on the Insomniac Tour. 32 years ago (22 November 1992), Green Day played the City Gardens in Trenton, NJ. 33 years ago (22 November 1991), Green Day played in Heerbrugg, Switzerland. Maybe that was when The Network first heard of them.

This title makes me question the priorities of people.

I saw that Billie posted this on his Instagram, feel happy for him that he gets some good news this week

Apparently Cuatro was nominated for Best Music Film in 2014 but other than that yes. Great news!

Just read an article on SF Gate website, Green Day have paid for the Murray Bowles book to be published. ❤️

While I don’t think OP is trolling, I do think someone at the show they went to who they overheard it from could’ve been trolling. Either that or it’s a compilation album. I just don’t see them releasing and promoting a new album next year after just releasing Saviors and having a pretty stacked schedule the first half of 2025. They’re not a band that pushes out new music that quickly and also, I think they’re really genuinely enjoying this period of their career and celebrating Saviors/Dookie/AI.

On this day 27 years ago (30 November 1997), Green Day played the Bank of America Center in Boise, ID on the Nimrod Tour. 29 years ago (30 November 1995), Green Day played the Coliseum in North Charleston, SC on the Insomniac Tour. 30 years ago (30 November 1994), Green Day played the Auditorium de Verdun in Montreal, Canada on the Dookie Tour. More photos: 33 years ago (30 November 1991), Green Day played Kasal Popular in Valencia, Spain. Another photo: Glad you're enjoying it. Got to keep GDC alive. Must have been wild being a Green Day fan back then!

Feeling like I need to take a moment of silence and honor the fact that today marks the 20th anniversary of the release of Boulevard of Broken Dreams as a single, the song that introduced me to Green Day and changed my life forever.

Billboard chart update- Alternative Airplay: 7 (up from 8) Rock & Alternative Airplay: 7 (up from 10) Mainstream Rock Airplay: 11 (up from 12)

Another concept album name back in 2008 was „Coffee and Repent“, right? This brings back so many great memories from hearing the 21CB demo for the first time and watching all those little leak videos featuring Butch Vig.

Omg hi Billie!!!!!!?!?!! Finally ‘ready to take that fuckin message board’ huh

When at the company you work in one of the bosses talks about the "long view" for the company during a town hall meeting and all you can think of is a certain Green Day song

You know you’re a Green Day fan when you hear One Eyed Bastard blasting out of a car driving by and it brings you great joy.

Missed a couple of days because it was my birthday and I was recovering from the ordeal of being mind-controlled by The Network, so 23 November 2024 On this day 5 years ago (23 November 2019), Green Day recorded their set for the 2019 Dick Clark's Rockin' New Year's Eve. More photos: 15 years ago (23 November 2009), Green Day played a free show at the Nokia Plaza in LA. It was recorded for New Year's Eve With Carson Daly. More photos: 20 years ago (23 November 2004), Green Day played the Long Beach Arena on the American Idiot Tour. More photos: 27 years ago (23 November 1997), Green Day played the Murat Theatre in Indianapolis on the Nimrod Tour. 29 years ago (23 November 1995), Green Day played the MARK of the Quad Cities in Moline, IL on the Insomniac Tour. 33 years ago (23 November 1991), Green Day played in Basel, Switzerland. 34 years ago (23 November 1990), Green Day played the Theatre Triad in Phoenix, AZ. ------------ 24 November 2024 On this day 5 years ago (24 November 2019), Green Day played Basket Case and Father of All at the American Music Awards. During Basket Case, Billie sang a snippet of Bad Blood by Taylor Swift. He needs to cover All Too Well. More photos: 20 years ago (24 November 2004), Green Day played the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco, CA on the American Idiot Tour. More photos: 21 years ago (24 November 2003), The Network played the Metreon in San Francisco, CA. Resisting... further... mind... control... 27 years ago (24 November 1997), Green Day played the Riviera Theatre in Chicago, IL on the Nimrod Tour. 29 years ago (24 November 1995), Green Day played the Municipal Auditorium in Kansas City on the Insomniac Tour. 33 years ago (24 November 1991), Green Day played Cafe Panama in Llodio, Spain. "The band was half an hour late. There were no cellphones, so we had no idea what happened, but the audience stayed put until they arrived. Turns out, they got arrested in Irun, at the French-Spanish border. Shortly after the show started, Billie's guitar broke. A guy from the audience, who also played in a band, lent his guitar to Billie. Despite the arrest jokes, the concert was very good. They were quite good, but no one imagined they would go so far." — Deia 34 years ago (24 November 1990), Green Day played U-Gene's Bar in Pico Rivera, CA. ------------ 25 November 2024 On this day 11 years ago (25 November 2013), Foreverly was released. 27 years ago (25 November 1997), Green Day played The Rave in Milwaukee, WI on the Nimrod Tour. "Last night was a GREAT show! Before the show started they had Billie's kid Joey on the stage with a mini guitar for a photoshoot! I went to the show where Billie got arrested for mooning the audience! He came back with the full intention to fuck shit up. He promised the crowd the nudity of at least one member before the show ended. Billie had the crowd chanting The Beautiful People. Then ever so popular Paper Lanterns came on, Billie told everyone to throw their clothes up on stage. He put them all on and said, 'I'll do the oposite of last time. But at the end of the show it will be one long strip show!' Tre went flying by with his pants down on one of those speaker carriers! After F.O.D. they proceeded to demolish the stage, and that's when Billie came forward to sing Good Riddance. After the show I gotta meet Tre. He said I and brother were cute! Then Mike signed a picture my brother drew of them. He said that he liked my pants and that I looked good! Overall it was the best night of my life!" — Lindsay 29 years ago (25 November 1995), Green Day played the Municipal Auditorium in Nashville, TN on the Insomniac Tour. 30 years ago (25 November 1994), Green Day played the Cobo Arena in Detroit, MI on the Dookie Tour. 33 years ago (25 November 1991), Green Day played Gaztetxe in Andoain, Spain. 35 years ago (25 November 1989), Green Day played at Swain's House in Benicia, CA. "It was at Swain's house. Susan made spaghetti. There was booze. It had rained a while bunch the days before and the driveway was dirt. It was muddy. Swain's band, The Happy Hour, didn't end up playing. We had a good time. Everyone was there. If I remember right, this would have been around the time Fifteen was slapping together their first record. Jack and Jeff rehearsed in Swain's garage. Writing songs, etc. My memory is shot, buddy. I remember we were a bit nervous to play which is why we didn't. I guess because Green Day was playing. I was loaded. 15 would have played all of the Swain stuff. I barely remember. I'm pretty certain this was Green Day before Tre. Yeah. So, early stuff, and Billie always did a few love songs for the 15 yr old girls." — Keith Alford They also played at 924 Gilman Street that day.

Article about the tour production really, regardless of title, interesting. https://news.pollstar.com/2024/11/22/green-day-brings-punk-rock-to-coachella-stadiums-global-stages/

Went on a transatlantic trip for work and got excited when: 1. I found the music section of the onboard entertainment had Father Of All. 2. Saw the Marshall headphones commercial with Billie in one of the screens right after immigration in Paris

Billie is playing guitar on St. Jimmy for a change! Enjoying the livestream.

Billboard chart update- Alternative Airplay: stays at 8 Rock & Alternative Airplay: 6 (up from 7) Mainstream Rock Airplay: 12 (down from 11)

A year ago yesterday (9 November 2023), Green Day played at the Marquis pub in London. More photos: 20 years ago (9 November 2004), Green Day played the US Cellular Arena in Milwaukee, WI on the American Idiot Tour. More photos: 27 years ago (9 November 1997), Green Day played The Boathouse in Norfolk, VA on the Nimrod Tour. 29 years ago (9 November 1995), Green Day played the Broome County Veterans Memorial Arena in Binghamton, NY on the Insomniac Tour. 33 years ago (9 November 1991), Green Day played KOB in Berlin, Germany. There were only about 50 people there. More photos: 35 years ago (9 November 1989), Green Day played at 924 Gilman Street. ---------------------------------------- On this day last year (10 November 2023), Green Day didn't play the Electric Ballroom, so I made this to commemorate the momentous occasion. 7 years ago (10 November 2017), Green Day played in Buenos Aires, Argentina on the Revolution Radio Tour. More photos: 15 years ago (10 November 2009), the 21st Century Breakdown music video was released. I always say the 21 Guns video is my favourite, but this one is bloody good too. There aren't any bad videos from that era. Behind the scenes photos: They also played in Milan that day. More photos: 19 years ago (10 November 2005), Green Day were interviewed and played three songs on MTV Total Request Live. More photos: 24 years ago (10 November 2000), Green Day played Minority on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. More photos: 27 years ago (10 November 1997), Green Day played the 9:30 Club in Washington D.C. on the Nimrod Tour. "An amazing show! It was a sold-out crowd at the 9:30 Club in Washington, DC. Superdrag had done their set and now everyone was ready for Green Day! Their roadies were setting up the equipment and the Ramones were playing over the PA. After a while, Whip It by Devo was blasted over the PA speakers and everyone knew that signaled something. Before you knew it, the boys from Green Day trotted up on stage and the crowd went crazy. They opened up with Going to Pasalacqua. Crazy things were going on the whole show. At one point, Bille Joe walked out with an Elmo doll in his pants. He whipped Elmo out and had him clapping along to the song. Then he brought a member out of the crowd to play along to the cover tune, Knowledge. After the guy played along, he commenced in the traditional stage dive. When I Come Around was the second to last song. After they played that, Green Day absolutely destroyed their set. BJ was playing weird shit on the guitar, Tre was trashing his drum set big time (there were sparks flying when he was hitting the cymbals against each other!) and Mike was spraying water and beer on the crowd. Well, there it was, a trashed set, absolute chaos onstage. Then, the roadie took one of the mics and just placed it towards the middle of the stage. Then, BJ came out and played Good Riddance (Time of Your Life). The crowed loved it. Billie didn't play it acoustic though, he just played it on his regular old guitar. It ended what was possibly the best live act that I have ever seen. If you get a chance to catch Green Day live, you won't regret it!" — fan experience 29 years ago (10 November 1995), Green Day played the State University of New York in Albany, NY on the Insomniac Tour. 33 years ago (10 November 1991), Green Day played the Gryfinski Dom Kultury in Gryfino, Poland. This was their first European show outside of Germany. Another photo and a poster:

When Saviors was announced, some feared that an album release in january might not count towards consideration for the following year's grammy awards. As it turns out, it does. So happy for them.

They should win all 3

I stumbled across this while looking up Boy George's twitter account: This is so freaking cool. And I think they met each other at a recent Cure concert. Be still my gothy heart.

I just don’t think the music scene is in a place where new Green Day music can be successful. Saviors is fresh and catchy, the singles have all been modern-sounding and clear-wormy. Rock, especially an old rock band, just doesn’t sell anymore.

Something tells me this is gonna get a resurgence of popularity on Spotify this week!

Having just watched the new documentary and HLAHG, I looked around a bit on YouTube and found this. I think it’s interesting, a lot of material not included in those films.
