HAPPY 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY TO SAVIORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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

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

I was bumping Saviors yesterday and it still holds up. Listening to it makes me smile. Everything about the era was amazing, especially after FOAM, which came out at the worst time.

Jason's setlist and the promo CD given to me by The Speedways

I just made a blusky account. I already don't care about Twitter but the recent Musk shit really sealed the deal for me.

Yup and I'm the ghost producer in all the Tarantino movies.

Pics from Billie's post from the Johannesburg show

Didn't see anything posted about this. The boys have earned 3 nominations for this year's iHeartRadio Music Awards! Hopefully, they'll perform again! https://bsky.app/profile/greendayofficial.bsky.social/post/3lgebdqjruc2u

Green Day have added a few more posts to their Blusky account now so I'm making this thread. Here's their first few posts https://bsky.app/profile/greendayofficial.bsky.social/post/3lbfzic5kv227 https://bsky.app/profile/greendayofficial.bsky.social/post/3lfvfk676l225 https://bsky.app/profile/greendayofficial.bsky.social/post/3lgebdqjruc2u I'm not tech enough to know if we can get the posts to show content or pics. Anyone know?

Ryan Baxley posted these on his Instagram story for the first anniversary of Saviors

On this day 8 years ago (22 January 2017), Green Day played the Tipsport Arena in Prague, Czech Republic on the Revolution Radio Tour. 8 whole years since I missed the Polskibus so I took an Uber from Krakow to Prague (335 miles) to make sure I didn't miss Green Day. The long story I wrote back then: More photos: 24 years ago (22 January 2001), Green Day played the DeltaPlex Arena & Conference Center in Grand Rapids, MI on the Warning Tour. 27 years ago (22 January 1998), Green Day played a second night at the SFX Hall in Dublin, Ireland on the Nimrod Tour. 32 years ago (22 January 1993), Green Day played Twisters in Richmond, VA.

One of the comments in the YouTube video: "Little known fact that Green Day’s triple album was initially going to be released as Uno, Dos, Tom."

Got these from Billie's post too

What a year it's been! We're so lucky the band is still putting out music this damn good and killing it live night after night.

The things we do (and continue to do) for this band. Worth all the pain and discomfort. Meeting new awesome people is just the icing on the cake 🙂

I've never questioned it. I just...appreciate it I first experienced this when watching Bullet in a Bible. I got it for Xmas that year. After we opened gifts I raced to my room to watch it. I was SHOOK when we got to HAR. But when Billie started with the moaning I rushed to mute the TV so my mom wouldn't walk in questioning what the hell she just bought for me When I saw GD in 2016 during the RevRad club tour he did a tamer version. He didn't go full on the floor but there was crotch touching and some "ooos."

This is cool. The Speedways new guitarist posted this One of Billie with the band

24 January 2025 On this day 15 years ago (24 January 2010), Green Day played the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan on the 21st Century Breakdown Tour. 20 years ago (24 January 2005), Green Day played the Brixton Academy in London, England on the American Idiot Tour. More photos (by Pete Still😞 This photographer has an eBay shop if anyone is interested. I bought his Brixton and Milton Keynes photos because I can still appreciate some photography, despite regretting my career choices. 24 years ago (24 January 2001), Green Day played the Eagles Ballroom in Milwaukee, WI on the Warning Tour. 27 years ago (24 January 1998), Green Day played the Barrowland Ballroom in Glasgow, Scotland. 29 years ago (24 January 1996), Green Day played a second night at Club Kitta in Kawasaki, Japan. 32 years ago (24 January 1993), Green Day played Club Nowhere in Orlando, FL. More photos: 35 years ago (25 January 1990), Green Day played Bam Bam's in Bakersfield, CA. ------------------- 25 January 2025 On this day 5 years ago (25 January 2020), Green Day played the NHL All-Star Game at the Enterprise Center in St. Louis, MO. They played four songs outside before the game, and played Basket Case and American Idiot during an intermission inside the arena. That's a really nice shot. More photos: 8 years ago (25 January 2017), Green Day played the Spektrum in Oslo, Norway on the Revolution Radio Tour. ^ I actually got a decent phone photo! These were alright, too: Anyway, this was one of my favourite shows I remember running in and seeing a completely empty barrier for the first time ever. I was in Jason's corner of the catwalk which was the best spot I'd ever had. Billie kept saying ‘tusen takk’ (thank you very much) and ‘jeg elsker deg’ (‘I love you’). I caught a pick he threw to me for the first time and put it on a necklace. I don't really care about setlists (unless they play Rock 'n' Roll All Nite or whatever it's called... THEN I will finally complain) and so it can be hard to explain why some shows are so special, but they're just magical somehow. Photos of the queue from the My Rage My Love My Life project: More (professional) photos: 15 years ago (25 January 2010), Green Day played in Nagoya, Japan on the 21st Century Breakdown Tour. 20 years ago (25 January 2005), Green Day played a second night at the Brixton Academy in London, England on the American Idiot Tour. More photos: 24 years ago (25 January 2001), Green Day played the Exhibition Hall in Madison, WI on the Warning Tour. 27 years ago (25 January 1998), Green Day played a second night at the Barrowland Ballroom in Glasgow, Scotland. 29 years ago (25 January 1996), Green Day played the Club Diamond Hall in Nagoya, Japan on the Insomniac Tour. Interesting to see how they often play the same places on the same dates over the years. 32 years ago (25 January 1993), Green Day played the Brass Mug in Tampa, FL.

Today (23 January 2025), Green Day are playing the DHL Stadium in Cape Town, South Africa on the Saviors Tour. More photos and setlist on GDA On this day 14 years ago (23 January 2011), Mike joined Billie Joe for the encore on Broadway. 15 years ago (23 January 2010), Green Day played the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan on the 21st Century Breakdown Tour. This was one of two shows at this arena that were filmed for the Awesome as Fuck DVD. More photos: 20 years ago (23 January 2005), Green Day played the National Indoor Arena in Birmingham, England on the American Idiot Tour. More photos: 24 years ago (23 January 2001), Green Day played the Hara Arena in Dayton, OH on the Warning Tour. 27 years ago (23 January 1998), Green Day played Scattered on TFI Friday at Riverside Studios in London, England. More photos: 29 years ago (23 January 1996), Green Day played CLUB CITTA in Kawasaki, Japan on the Insomniac Tour. 32 years ago (23 January 1993), Green Day played Rockafellas in Columbia, SC. That was definitely one of the most batshit things I've ever done But I'd do it again as long as I had the money. The driver had never been to Prague before so I hope he had a good time!

The dates don’t line up. We know the lyrics for Basket Case were finished sometime before they played Gilman on 11/18/1992. They didn’t sign with Reprise until April of 1993. The guy is full of shit (obviously).

Few more pics from the show https://www.greendayauthority.com/news/6223/

Same! I haven't really stopped listening to it since it came out, and it's still amazing. It's been a great year for Green Day and for Green Day fans.

Has it been a year already? Jeez, that doesn’t seem possible. Think it’s safe to say Saviors is very solid work. It doesn’t reinvent the wheel but coming after FOAM it was a needed return to form. Good production, good writing, good tour.

Just heard it all yesterday on the treadmill. Still love it start to finish. We’re lucky to get such a great album at this late stage of their career.

@pacejunkie punk It really has — he’s been like continuously de-aging for two years now! He looks amazing, and looking so happy looks great on him, too.

Adie's hat with space for her dreds. Love it.

I haven't seen any mention of it on Instagram, so I think someone was either trolling or confused 🤷‍♀️ I was just on a video call with to my partner when he joined one of his colleagues who went to the show last night, and of course I asked him about the show. The guy is a pretty casual listener (he felt the need to inform me they closed with Time of Your Life how cute is that?), but he was converted. "They played song after song! and they had so much energy! It was just amazing!" He sounded still really hyped and really happy about the show. I felt proud ☺️

Any chance they played it to get the crowd going? Like sometimes festival crowds aren't quite as receptive?

This is what I was thinking too. They have such an extensive catalog of their own songs, that even if they just stick to singles and greatest hits they'd still have enough for a full 2h playlist. So I don't know why they "waste time" in their shows with covers. As a fan, I'd rather they switch it for one of their own songs. But I guess it's precisely that, that they have fun playing it.

This is too cute: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DFIr867NJRx/

They played Still Breathing!

I think Green Day have opened a blusky account but last I looked there was only one post. We could perhaps have a new thread for that if they start to use it more often?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that we could do that.

Goy my vinyl delivered today. Absolutely love this album. Fast, easy and catchy all the way through

https://headlineplanet.com/home/2025/01/19/green-days-bobby-sox-officially-claims-1-on-alternative-radio-chart/ It's already #1 on Mediabase.

Didn‘t wanna say it here on GDC but I‘m glad Tom told the truth. So, now I’m allowed to say I wrote Jesus of Suburbia when I was 13.

What's crazier is five years ago today I traveled out to St. Louis to stand in the cold to see Green Day's pre-NHL All star performance where I met @pacejunkie punk and @Jon Benjamin. If you watch the broadcast version, you can spot me in the crowd 😳

Come back Tom we need you

The Uber to Prague story That's hilarious, crazy, and also I can totally see myself doing the same in that situation. I bet the guy still remembers that as one of his top interesting stories while working as an Uber

20 January 2025 20 years ago (20 January 2005), Green Day played the Philipshalle in Düsseldorf, Germany on the American Idiot Tour. 24 years ago (20 January 2001), Green Day played the House of Blues in North Myrtle Beach, SC on the Warning Tour. 27 years ago (20 January 1998), Green Day played Ulster Hall in Belfast, Northern Ireland on the Nimrod Tour. Ticket from Paul's Gigography 29 years ago (20 January 1996), Green Day played the Matsushita IMP Hall in Osaka, Japan on the Insomniac Tour. -------------- 21 January 2025 On this day 8 years ago (21 January 2017), Green Day played in Krakow, Poland on the Revolution Radio Tour. I remember having a conversation with the staff at Mountain Warehouse in Falmouth about whether a wizard-themed tent for kids would be suitable for camping on a snowy street in Poland (it wasn't and they were worried I was going to die). Fortunately no-one camped overnight. I got there about 6:30AM and was 15th in the queue. There were fans from Finland, Ukraine and all over Poland there. A girl from Warsaw said the ticket and travel costs were an entire month’s wages to her, but it was her first chance to see Green Day and she knew it would be worth it. People gave out "bang" signs in the queue and everyone held them up during Bang Bang. Billie took one of the photographers' cameras to film them. Scattered was the highlight for me. Such a shame they didn't keep playing it. Some photos of the queue from the My Rage My Love My Life project: More photos of the show (credit: rockmetal.pl) 25 years ago (21 January 2010), Green Day played the Osaka-jo Hall in Osaka, Japan on the 21st Century Breakdown Tour. More photos: 20 years ago (21 January 2005), Green Day played the Alsterdorfer Sporthalle in Hamburg, Germany on the American Idiot Tour. 27 years ago (21 January 1998), Green Day played the SFX Hall in Dublin, Ireland on the Nimrod Tour. 29 years ago (21 January 1996), Green Day played the Skala Espacio in Fukuoka, Japan on the Insomniac Tour. 32 years ago (21 January 1993), Green Day played Lewis's in Norfolk, VA.

Got a really nice surprise in the post today. I'd completely forgotten I'd ordered the souvenir tickets and they arrived earlier! Will have to photograph and post a pic

The documentary is on peacock now

If they'll play it in LA (for the webstream) and in Florence when I'll see them, I'll be very happy

One year later, I wonder if we'll get any Saviors leftovers like Fever finally being released outside of Japan, and whatever this song was going to be

"Back in '93, I saw Green Day at the old City Gardens in Trenton. Low ceiling, dead of winter, slush everywhere on the floor. A fight broke out just to the left of the stage, and in the middle of the song, Billie Joe took off his guitar, jumped in the middle, and kicked the shit out of the kid that started the whole thing." — notJames "In live recordings from Green Day's first show ever at City Gardens, Billie Joe Armstrong can be heard exclaiming, 'This is the biggest crowd that we have ever played in front of,' and, 'we've never had monitors before,' and after the first Green Day concert at City Gardens, drummer Tre Cool kisses promoter Randy Now on the cheek due to them making literally quadruple their original guarantee and their total merchandise sales at that one venue topping four figures for the first time in their career. They left City Gardens by trashing the dressing room as a 'rite of rock and roll passage' or a 'badge-of-honor and victory', thinking they were The Who. Another interesting trivia fact with Green Day and City Gardens is after Green Day's first appearance at the club, and having traveled cross country from California, punk rock agent Andy Somers got wind of this career-changing concert performance in Jersey from this band out of California, and phoned from his Hollywood agency office City Gardens promoter Randy Now, asking him, 'Hey, Randy. Andy here. What's this Green Day band all about?' and gave Somers the phone contact information which he used to pursue Green Day to become one of his clients, which they did. This started a relationship that would lead Green Day to be one of the headlining acts at the twenty-fifth anniversary of Woodstock." 33 years ago (17 January 1992), Green Day played 924 Gilman Street. ------------------------ 18 January 2025 On this day last year (18 January 2024), Green Day played Irving Plaza in NYC.
