How early would you have to line up to be guaranteed a wristband I wonder?

Might depend on who intends to go. I would imagine some fans would definitely line up from very early morning (might even have one person hold the line for multiple others as has happened at other shows in the past)

Wasn’t the tickets for the show pre-hella mega first show in Tulsa at Cain’s Balroom sold online though? I’m guessing they’ll do something like that again with this 

[Biddymc]

Sigh.  Driving my oldest son from Chicago to Tucson this weekend.  Absolutely gutted.  I'd love to be able to snag a ticket for my younger son.  GD is our shared love.  Signed about for the email list.  Never been able to snag a a ticket to a small show/venue before.  Any tips?

[GreenDay_Fan]

It’s honestly probably bad how much I am worrying about getting tickets and how upset I would be if I don’t get them, which unfortunately is very unlikely I get any. I want to see them in this small show venue so bad.

Probably a one time thing for now, like how they did Dookie at Reading and as a one off in Spain

Huh? They played Dookie in 2013 at all of their gigs.

The entire album front to back? No, they did it like twice that tour I think, Reading and one other gig maybe

[frankoz]

Is green day some kind of religion to you? Don't you live your own live? Be inspired, take it as an anchor. But understand, so feel the meaning of Bad Religion.

Sorry, i meant European Tour. But their first was in former yugoslavia, don't remember the city, if i remember correctly at all. But they played dookie in Vienna, i was there. Even though the location was shit.

[Cali89]

If they play a new song at any show this weekend I'm gonna lose my damn mind. It would be so cool. Really hope someone films it!

As well as Serbia (Belgrade) they played Dookie in full at the Brixton Club show and at both Reading and Leeds Festival shows. @frankoz says they played it in Vienna so at least five times. Not sure what others if any 

[GuitarPunk94]

dookie was on the setlist and planned for their german rockamring headliner festival show in 2013, but  i think they didnt play dookie in full at this night because the crowd sucked lol (i was heartbroken)

[Tomcat20]

Dont't forget that Dookie in it's entirety was also played in Madrid 2019. I went to this club show - it was awesome.

AHHHHHHHHHH IT'S HAPPENING! 

[Paola17]

Well, that's quite the graphic for this.

[Mato]

It would be funny if they switched it up and played their Hella Mega setlist at the Metro, and then the new album and deep cuts only at Lollapalooza 😬

[GDFan2019]

What could be "extra special" about this set? 1972?!?!?!?!?!?!?

[That Dude]

We should try to get a concert just for GDA users.  

[The Grohl]

I don't care what they play at Metro. The fact that they're even playing that place is special. But again I don't have confidence in getting tickets. I tried to get Turnstile Lolla Aftershow tix and that was a complete shit show. Those tickets all sold out in the pre-sale. At least there are no pre-sales for this.

[Clockwise]

Hopefully this makes them want to play more smaller clubs 👀

 

Poster obviously confirms they will be playing UNO and TRE in full.

I'd like to know what that monkey in the poster is referring to.

I think it's "extra special" that it is happening at all. Green Day performing in any other location than an arena/stadium is extra special these days.
