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.

Love that Billie never ever gets tired of playing shows lol. Looking good in the red with the floof! Here's to more Coverups shows

I would absolutely love something like 21st Century Breakdown again just one more time in their career. The incredible production, the wide variety of instruments and arrangements, Billie Joe's vocal range, etc etc etc. An unbelievable record start to finish. How did that come to be? The band feeling adventurous after American Idiot? Warner/Reprise asking them for an epic follow up to American Idiot? Butch Vig's touch?

Hugging Billie Joe in Vienna

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

just found these! i might be turning into a billie fanboy. i just caught myself giggling at these...

okay! not sure if they're good enough, but... i like his smile... that's pretty cute, right? i dunno what billie fangirls like. im just here to feed. oh well

If that’s true…honestly it’s better than New Years Rev

Alice Baxley posted this new pic on her Instagram story (looks to be from when they filmed the Bobby Sox video)

My personal highlights were the nights when I stayed up to watch live-streamed shows with everyone, like the Fire Aid show. Those days were fun . Wow, two days until 2026......

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

Guys, I'm still very hopeful and wholeheartedly rooting for a live album next year, so sometimes I go online and look for random news about it, and I found something cool! We saw Ryan Mackfall's post about being part of the camera crew at the 2024 Wembley show, and now I found his Tumblr page where he shares a bit more. He said it was Chris Dugan who brought this project to him, and the key phrase for me is "I can't reveal where or how the results will be released," so yes, we'll have it! I'll leave the original link here, where you can read and find some cool photos, including one of a fan being interviewed, which makes me believe we'll have something in the style of BIAB. I was there and would be dope to relive it again https://thatfilmduderyan.com/post/768859390089560064/green-day-wembley-stadium

Every time I listen to Nimrod or it comes on shuffle! It's the perfect interlude Also kind of obsessed with the video of them playing Nimrod songs to an interviewer in the studio before they're completely finished. Last Ride In with some extra jazzy bits and Tre goofing around in the background while Billie listens intensely lol (it's the first song they play him at the start of the video)

Not exactly an item but I didn’t find another thread to post it: Back from the tattoo artist, I finally got the heart grenade. Very happy with it!😊

i actually got into them through my best friend and some other people. his favourite band has been green day for a long time, so i asked a few friends online for some suggestions. the first three green day songs i ever listened to were dilemma, east jesus nowhere, and longview.

For me, it was definitely seeing them at Riot Fest. I camped out at the stage since 11:15 am, but the barrier was already claimed by Green Day fans (The festival opened at 11)! I became super dehydrated to the point of my cheeks sinking into my face. I moshed until I felt like I had to puke. It was the most glorious time I’ve ever had at a Green Day show. It was also great to be there on my own and not have to worry about anyone and if they were having a good time. 100% would do it again. I’d do it tomorrow.

Seeing them live at Download festival during the Summer. Such an amazing atmosphere and the crazy timing of the rain starting on cue during WMUWSE.

I don’t expect word on anything new from Green Day for at least 18 months but Billie did speak about trying to get Pinheaded Gunpowder together for some shows I think.

Thought you guys might like this one I just posted on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/DSxbX4UAjSq/?igsh=NW4xNDZ1NjNoY3k0

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.

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

Both. When I’m on the go of course I stream everything. In fact, streaming is great because my bootlegs get folded into my library so it’s really the most complete version of my collection. Vinyl is for when I’m at home and really have the time to dedicate to giving the music the full attention it deserves. For me there’s no beating the experience of getting a record off the shelf, putting it on the turntable, hearing the needle drop, listening to it, holding the artwork, reading the inserts. It’s a vibe, man.

Re-listening to Kerplunk! tonight an holy bujeezus Tré is a monster with the drum fills on Welcome To Paradise

https://www.instagram.com/reel/DSJ7g4cDal-/?igsh=djBqazhlZGhzMmtl And this one clearly is for the fangirls. The floof here is excessive.😂 And the red suits him so well! 😍

https://www.instagram.com/reel/DSJzjrGjAd_/?igsh=MWttbXFsd3pjZmZsYw== And here they are! Billie looks great!😍 (Not the Fangirls Thread, I know)

I couldn't wait til Xmas so I got myself the Warning 25 CD boxset and the Dookie dog. He's pretty cute, but unless future figures are actually of the band, I don't plan to get more.

Check out the GDA roundup of this year's highlights! https://www.greendayauthority.com/news/6272/ What was YOUR personal highlight? Mine was hearing Suzie Chapstick live, but the bits of Stay the Night and Redundant acoustic that we got in Vienna were close seconds.

https://www.spin.com/2025/12/green-days-mike-dirnt-talks-about-creating-their-most-essential-record-in-years/ Finally the full interview with Mike!

I think Billie will do something with a side project between albums

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.

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!

Got myself some early Christmas presents!😃

something about this outfit...

That is maximum floof

and here he is to feed once again! didn't think it'd be so soon, but... https://www.instagram.com/reel/DOR9mPniCFe/?igsh=MWplNmZxdWx6NjA1aw== look at his smile! and he looks so tiny here too 🥹 aww...

"That time I DJ'd my sister's wedding.."

i have zero tattoos, but in january i will get 3 tattoos in a one-day-session i hope it wont hurt too much one will be the puzzle from biffy clyro, and the enter shikari triangle, and the third one being a mix of everything with green day's disappearing boy in the center (basically a guy with a "disappearing" effect) i didnt want sth that everyone has, like the heartgrenade or the dookie letters etc (still cool tattoos!), and i feel deeply connected to the disappearing boy song, so i choose this for my first green day tattoo (wont be the last one probably) 😊

When you are bothered again and again by those Reddit folks spelling Billie‘s name Billy!😡

When you hear Good Riddance playing from your boss' office and have to resist running in there. Cause, ya know, I haven't heard it enough times.

Lots of fangirl moments in their roundup… https://www.instagram.com/reel/DS7yOz6EYlH/?igsh=dTJ0bDl3a2JpdnNu

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.

From Green Day Italia on IG:

I do both, but it is more convenient to listen to streamed music. I have a lot of CDs. Yes, I listen to them a lot, and if there is a nationwide blackout and no electricity, I still have a CD player and batteries. . For vinyls, yes I have a record player, but it is just more of a collecters thing. I only buy records if its an anniversary album or a cool print, otherwise i could just buy the CD for less or stream it. I believe it supports the band more or the record label more to buy CD's, and who wouldn't want to support their favorite bands

I was just watching a new David Bowie documentary on Netflix (recommend btw) and I noticed it was a Live Nation production just like NYR. I would be fine with this movie getting a Netflix deal and just showing there.

I do think its Billie i was just being funny haha. Wow, I was hesitant about posting the because i thought it was cheesy but it started a whole speculation
