STAY THE NIGHT! Forever Now! Stuart & the Ave! Redundant!!! One of my lovely friends got onstage and Billie took his pride flag the night before 🥹 Both shows were absolutely incredible but the first one was one of my favourite Green Day shows ever. There was the most amazing atmosphere around us and so many lovely people in the queue 🩷

WHAT A SHOW. Hubby said every time he sees them he thinks they can’t be any better, then he sees the next show, Stuart and the Ave nearly made me cry, Forever Now I just love, totally not expecting Stay The Night and I was a little worried his in-ears were an issue but overcame it. Only down side was it was only 90 minutes and Billie had on the long sleeve version of the OEB shirt 😂. Seriously, they looked and sounded great, it was amazing. Also, some of the new merch is really nice.

People on Reddit say lots of things lol. I don’t check in there much, but that particular community seems to have a fixation with thinking he’s drinking every time he has some kind of on-stage issue, with most of them going “hey man it’s fineeee if he wants to drink” and all that nonsense. One time they swore he was drinking last year because he was acting weird during a song and lo and behold, there’s a video from right after where he’s like “I was just choking on an Advil!” Lmao. I understand the worry 100% but it takes more for me to be concerned than one meh night where there were other things at play that caused tension. I imagine starting two hours later than scheduled is a big deal for a performer when they have specific rituals to get themselves ready for the show. I mean, I’m just a concertgoer and even I’ve been put in weird moods by rain delays. Having all that built up adrenaline delayed, and worries over whether the event will go on at all, messes with you a bit. I saw GD last year in Philly and Pittsburgh and enjoyed Philly a lot less because it was up in the air all day whether the show could happen because of a hurricane.

I haven't watched the show yet, so I cannot comment on his behavior, but given the whole situation with it being postponed due to the storm, not knowing if it would happen or not, and being on that state of uncertainty for at least an hour, especially for a front man who has said many times he gets stage fright, I imagine is quite enough to put anyone in quite a state. So I wouldn't worry too much, as in all the previous shows he has seemed perfectly fine and quite enjoying himself.

Ugh I saw that too, and it’s literally just someone’s ~feeling based on nothing. They’re all human like the rest of us, god forbid he shows a bit of emotion now and then

We always remember to complain but sometimes we don't remember to compliment, so before I forget, this year's VIP host is lovely So far, the whole thing has gone so much better than last year. Even the merch isn't as shit.

I saw them live at Southside and watched yesterday’s livestream and there’s literally nothing that suggests that he was drunk. The difference between the two shows is that there was no thunderstorm and therefore no delay and no time restrictions at Southside. That’s all. They probably had a little less time and had to rush through some of the songs. It still looked like a good show to me. And him being angry? That’s human. I’d also be mad if someone tried to distract me all the time.

I tried to like Wunderhorse on the first night but by the second I was out of patience 😂 Still not over how good these shows were though!! Redundant was so beautiful. I don't think it's sunk in that we heard 86 and Stuart & the Ave. One of my friends filmed 86 and all you can hear is us screaming 😂

People on Reddit are always speculating that anytime his behavior is less than perfect. I’d dismiss it.

Back in March, I was able to acquire the Japanese guitar magazine that features the photos of Billie's nimrod guitars and rig that were shared last year. The publication is called Cool Guitar - Modern Rock, issue is November 1998. I scanned the pages and translated the article to the best of my ability. I just finished up another video with 182News breaking all of this down. Enjoy! Link to my article translation: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YdW-IzWNR4Mxw_yuZX1Na0XDqDS4_lbv/view?usp=share_link

Fuck Off has debuted: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DLI6mF2tDKB/

I don’t think that’s accurate, apart from being rushed and saying a few more anti war things (understandable) the only time he showed any actual frustration was during the jos incident which fair play to him if someone was spraying him with water in the face all night

Someone in the crowd clearly wound him up I think. Stressful hanging around, all fired up to perform then a delay with all the doubts about that, then time constraints, no surprise if he wasn’t as relaxed as he’s been.

The setlist for the second night was: American Idiot Holiday Know Your Enemy (w/ fan on stage) Boulevard of Broken Dreams One Eyed Bastard Forever Now Longview Hitchin' a Ride Stuart and the Ave. Brain Stew St. Jimmy Dilemma (w/ Stay the Night snippet) 21 Guns Minority Basket Case She (Billie seemed to have some in-ear issues from that point onwards) When I Come Around Wake Me Up When September Ends Jesus of Suburbia Bobby Sox Good Riddance [Time of Your Life] (w/ Redundant snippet) Billie had his in-ears in and out tonight, so I guess there was an issue. Glad they played an Insomniac track again and I got to hear Forever Now live in person Liked yesterday I recorded the show and it will be up as soon as possible I wasn't lucky tonight getting a physical setlist though.

There shouldn't be outside shows in Scandinavia. 😂 The rain and the wind.. Even with a rainponcho parts of my clothes got wet and they still are. Luckely it's a short flight to Oslo. This was definitely one of the coldest shows for me. I went to this festival last year as well and the layout is weird. There's GA and premium tickets and parts of the premium area is very close to the bands' area of the festival. I thought there was a line for the bathroom several times but after a while I realized that there were fans who was trying to see the bands and at least one lady tried to cross over to the band's area. Security got her but I don't get what their thought process was here. There was an opening between GA and premium where Security went back and forth - and crew members and family members went walking by too. They didn't watch the show from sidestage but from these tents close to where the cameras for the stage was. Right before they went on Adrienne walked by us and a couple of songs into their set Sara walked by as well. They played Brat 😁 Love when Insomniac songs get's played and it's not just Brain Stew/Jaded. They also played Fuck off other than that the setlist was like the other shows. When making the introduction for the band Billie Joe also included himself and said "I'm Billie". He kept saying "tack" which means thank you. It's very similar in Norwegian and Danish too, so I'm guessing he'll keep saying the same for those shows too. The part of Hitchin' a ride where they usually stop for a longer time to get the crowd pumped up - it wasn't skipped but it felt rushed compared to the other shows. Don't think anyone who was there as a casual listener noticed. No stagedive for KYE because of the rain and how slippery the stage was. Before Bobby Sox, Billie Joe thanked us for waiting in the rain. He said it right before he started the song and mixed up the first and second verse. He laughed and said "I messed up" and started the song over again. I'm hopefull for a better weather at Tons. 🤧

BRAT HAS RETURNED!!!

My video of Waiting I remembered not to sing too loud for most of it, but not all of it 😂 Some other nice videos

Still ready to throw down, love it. Part of what he said was definitely "I''ll beat your ass" lol Reminded me of years ago when some guy was being violent in the crowd or something and he spit like a gallon of spit (seriously) in his face as security was removing him and went back to singing the song 2 seconds later Water gun guy got off light!

I bought the tour poster and FINALLY a foam finger. Been looking for one since I've seen them in Bullet in a Bible and never got the chance to get any of the many they had. 20 years later, I'm a proud Green Day foam finger...holder!

So Billie got into it with a fan who was shooting a water pistol at him: https://consequence.net/2025/06/billie-joe-armstrong-squirt-gun/ He rightfully gets angry but my favorite part of the vid is how he immediately gets back into showman mode. That's a true performer right there 😆

Yeah and he seemed to be enjoying himself at this one too from what I saw! I saw nothing different to download save for what’s already been discussed. People, man 🙄

Me too, please 🥺 But only to Green Day. I'd happily skip the support act 😵‍💫

You don’t see that in the video anywhere. He’s quite a distance from the crowd I’m surprised security wouldn’t have shut that down right away. It’s hard to tell from the livestream what exactly happened. I agree that he seemed a little tense throughout the show and I’m sure a combination of world events and a delayed start might have contributed (along with some asshole fan causing trouble). He was less silly and smiley, there were fewer little musical ad libs and Good Riddance sounded rushed like he wanted to get the hell out of there. One of those nights it happens.

What happened during Jesus of Suburbia? Billie Joe removed his guitar, dropped his mic, and began to talk, pissed.

Billie just dropped his guitar and mic and mouthed "You better fucking quit it or I'll beat your ass" to someone in the front row during JoS

I don't think the first sentence of that article is particularly true. I feel Green Day fans such as ourselves are still obsessing over the release of Saviors and the Saviors de luxe edition that just dropped. Saviors is still just a year and a half old, which is still new (to me anyways). I feel fans should at least give them a break, considering how much work they put into Saviors. I am not eager to have a new album, though I would of course be happy. Our boys deserve a break ❤️ Thanks for sharing, though. Very confused as of why that is "bad news," haha. Interesting

I would sacrifice my soul to hear "Peacemaker" and "Little Girl" live

Hearing Forever Now made me so incredibly happy. I saw that they had played it in Japan, and my greatest wish was to get that too. It was perfect!🥰

I have nothing against Fuck Off, would love to see it live. But not at the expense of it permanently occupying one of the two "random" deep cut slots, reducing it to only one song changing from night to night. I want my two surprise songs for the upcoming shows! It that means dropping Fuck Off, then so be it. 😅

The ass slaps. 💓 https://www.instagram.com/reel/DLUYaZUtc2n/?igsh=eW4wcDNkejE4NnQ5

📸:u/slxsherlxver Pissed off Billie needs to be in here

I was expressing sympathy for all concerned. The crowd who must have wondered if they would get the show at all and the band who always want to give their best.

The camera work is annoying it’s all over the place and too many fast cuts. It’s hard to focus on Billie’s performance the camera doesn’t stay on him for more than a few seconds at a time

is this Hurricane 2025? or Fillmore Night 2 1997?

Hi. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DLGHipWN7cx/?igsh=NG5xaDMwbGV6YjBs

I shared this in another thread, but back in March I acquired this Japanese guitar magazine that features Billie's gear and an interview from the nimrod tour. The publication is called Cool Guitar - Modern Rock, issue is November 1998. I scanned the pages and translated the article to the best of my ability. Enjoy! Link to my article translation: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YdW-IzWNR4Mxw_yuZX1Na0XDqDS4_lbv/view?usp=share_link

Well, the livestream was working for me earlier today but just went back on to watch now and it says I'm region blocked. I tried both computer and phone.

I've made a WhatsApp community for the remaining shows (thanks for the idea @DeJennsitized) ☺️ https://chat.whatsapp.com/II0SJKHg2KNKiqpNFnfprA Everyone is welcome! Feel free to add friends who aren't on GDC.

Yeah the Saviors Era still feels young

Headline makes it sound bad, but it's actually good. Green Day have been messing around with ideas, taking a measured approach to album 15 - sounds promising to me. The guys are touring through September, so let's say the guys need an entire year off work. Hell, I need an entire year off work. Can't do it. But if they need a solid 365 days off - cool. By September 2026, Billie will have 4-5 albums worth of stuff to pick from. Mike and Tre will join in the fun, the crap will be vaporized with these "cylinders" Mike will roll in from the airport - and bada bing, bada booooom. They could probably sneak into the studio at the very end of 2026 and start cooking. Complete the recording of the entire project by April/May 2027. Quietly putting all the pieces together. The rumors and and l!@#$ start appearing around December and then an announcement for an October 2027 release. Maybe early 2028 if the touring schedule gods align better at that point. But yeah, Billie doesn't "have bad news". https://rockcelebrities.net/billie-joe-armstrong-has-some-bad-news-on-green-days-new-music-plans/?fbclid=IwY2xjawLEJ4VleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFlT0xOcHpoZU5KYkxLWDFyAR5QI47Ik2MdOmklXqaNRb3JLqEYolHFUjV1f4YtWVlHvvB_cBkgsQ614gUuag_aem_LjZxnlm2xP3ZXWKcBMnyYg

I put some of these in the fangirls thread. I about passed out when I saw Billie flipping off the camera, hehe https://www.instagram.com/p/DLLRHIwS8Rn/

omg I RAN here when I saw these ❤️ he ages in reverse caption: Southside, you really showed ‘em !! That crowd? Unreal. 🇩🇪🤘🏻 🎥 @ryanbaxley // 📸 @paranoidtrooper

Here are official photos by volume.at 17th: https://www.volume.at/fotos/green-day-2025-06-17/ 18th: https://www.volume.at/fotos/green-day-2025-06-18/ In case someone just wants all the pictures (like me), I downloaded them and uploaded them to Google Drive: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1qngrZ6NWuOKm7oTlsrMZazXUW3nFCzzy?usp=sharing

2 amazing shows, the guys looked and sounded amazing, great audience too. It was so damn hot in that place, everyone was soaked in sweat and obviously I caught a small cold when I went out in the cooler air afterwards 🤧 Resting now to get healthy again for my next two shows in Luxembourg and Amsterdam. This band😍

I love peacemaker so much, really all of 21cb but I feel like I saw all of it in 2010 first time I ever saw them. I learned how to play it on acoustic and do the bass part on the E string while playing the B minor chords and its so satisfying lol

Georgia alt radio barely plays any Green Day that isn't from Dookie or AI because as much as I love it I SWEAR TO GOD IF I HEAR WELCOME TO PARADISE ONE MORE DAMN TIM- I mean, it's fun, it's cool, it's rad

A couple pictures from Vienna show I thought needed to be shared via Green Day Instagram 21 CB vibes from that last pic ❤️ 🔥 Via Billie's Instagram (edit: omg of course my 1,000th post is about me fangirling over Billie, heheh)

My dream songs to see live: B-sides like Too much too soon, Shoplifter, Favorite Son and stuff like Do da da, Poprocks and coke, Maria, and finally Armitage Shanks, Jackass, Fashion Victim and Lazy Bones

Went to Hollywood and found the star outside Amoeba, went ahead and bought Saviors deluxe CD
