I just posted a little info on this in the Dublin show thread thought I'd share the info here too.

Historic Dublin pub now a Starbucks.

What links Captain William Bligh of Mutiny on the Bounty fame, Brendan Behan, Green Day and early morning techno gigs? One address – 1 George’s Quay, Dublin.......

On the southside of the city between the new Rosie Hackett Bridge and Butt Bridge, this well-known and loved early-house pub closed in July of this year and re-opened a month later as a Starbucks.

The pub was situated on the corner of George’s Quay and Corn Exchange Place (formerly White’s Lane). Its address was 1 George’s Quay but the location was often mixed up for Burgh Quay.

As The White Horse, it was a popular haunt from the 1950s to the 1970s for the city’s journalist and literary set due mainly to its close proximity to the Irish Press building. In the 1980s and 1990s, its upstairs ‘Attic’ venue played an important role in Dublin’s rock and alternative music scenes. A relatively unknown Californian punk band called Green Day played there to less than 40 people in December 1991 at a gig organised by the pioneering Hope Collective.

On a “wintry Sunday afternoon” in December 1991, an up-and-coming American punk band Green Day played in The Attic to about 40 people. Support came from Dog Day. Cover charge was £2 and the organisers lost £50 on the night.

Niall recalls in Please Feed Me: A Punk Vegan Cookbook (2004) that singer Billie Joe Armstrong and the rest of the band didn’t hang around in Dublin that evening:

Dublin wasn’t really the party city and Green Day left for Belfast straight after the gig, but not before getting some directions and food. They had enjoyed themselves so much in Belfast the previous night that they wanted to get back as quickly as possible.

One lucky gig goer was Pete Murphy who recalled in a 2015 article  in State Magazine:

I was in town doing some last minute Christmas shopping. I knew Niall was organising an afternoon gig for this band on Lookout Records, called Green Day. I knew their first couple of records, and I’d always support the Hope gigs when I could, so I took some time out to pop in and catch the show. Armed as ever with my trusty walkman recorder I headed in and, along with, I guess, 25 other people, caught a great gig. I still have that tape somewhere.

No okay, he wanted help to know the name of a pub they played back in 1991 and people were replying that there's now a Starbucks in its place, and he suggested they storm the place and play a surprise show there now that they are in Dublin.

I'm honestly thinking about this now. How can he say that and then not have them do something? lol, three whole days off is probably driving him nuts.

This is far too out of instagram character for Jeff, he's clearly reading the fangirls thread

Oh..O.k..I get it. I think?..

Billie is just one "weird" dude.

I wish he can played little show at pub in Dublin. I like it better,if he does that then some Big festival.

I wonder if I head into Starbucks tomorrow how many fans will be loitering waiting for Billie to burst in through the doors with an amp

Yes it's Tre in the tank top but I believe that it is Jason next to him and possibly Billie behind Jason though I'm not certain about that. I'm going off what Jason and Billie were wearing that day.

I bet he'll tell us about it on Thursday at the concert and how disappointed he is that it's now a Starbucks
