Also, if the guide says 9pm-11pm that means they may shorten the set a bit (because Green Day's set is 2.5h, maybe they'll have everything up to the encore, but not the two encores. I really hope that's not the case).

Holding onto hope for a festival appearance or something next summer, just because of Glasgow, but nothing more. I feel badly about that- and they had about 4 days between gigs and then a few days after tonight to reschedule. It's not on them at all, it's the promoter- but it would have been nice if the promoter could have somehow gotten their act together within a week's time and put together a makeup date while they were in Europe. Although I would speculate that after they had blown the first date, GD management would basically say the hell with trusting them again and just move on, which is completely understandable. I do feel awful for the fans that had been looking forward to this though. I remember what it was like when they cancelled on our US dates back in 2013- not fun at all- and that was a situation directly related to the band, this is was promoter (haha, weather) issue.

Yeah, all signs point towards the promoter never getting a show of this size again, rightly so. And it's selfish and I know I'm in the minority (ha) but I'm glad there wasn't a reschedule for this leg as I was leaving the country the day after anyway. It hurts (especially because it was such a stupid fuck up) but they were genuinely upset about it so whenever they come back it'll be worth the wait. Still hoping that's ASAP obviously, just leave me time to book a trip
Daddy. Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 The only place I see them realistically touring is Japan for a few shows then a year off. Like someone previously said, and to add to the point, they may still run around on stage like they're in the 20's and be mentally into shows, but physically as they get older they need to slow down and heal up.
Meliciraptor Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 "This was to be the last show of our European tour and we were all so excited to play our hearts out one last time. " - sound like a no to a third leg of the RevRad tour. The quote is from Billie's recent Instagram post https://www.instagram.com/p/BWThxLiD1VW/?taken-by=billiejoearmstrong

Not surprising really, although they might do the odd date here or there. Either way it's been great and I'm so glad I got to see them on both legs of the European tour 😄

I saw them in Cologne and at Pinkpop, so no reason to complain about a lack of opportunities, haha. I still can't wait for them to come back. It's just never enough

And I still feel robbed of my proper farewell in Glasgow, I'd seen them three days earlier in London but I didn't know that that would be it at the time, I need closure haha!

AimieeSmith Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 I think if they come back to Europe in 2018, it should be for a vacation ! .

Tubbie Head Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 I wish!! Hahahah I'm already suffering from post GD concert depression mostly because I'm pretty sure I won't be seeing them in another 4 years or more And they were sounding the best I've ever witness from them. I'm thankful to have seen them this tour though, as it could have not happened if I hadn't gotten out of my country to see them (and then if the show had been canceled). Hopefully they rest a lot (they deserve it) and are inspired to create more music for us, and for them, soon enough ❤
