One thing that's bothering me is that they played both Dookie and AI in one show just a couple of days ago, and yet there's hardly anyone talking about it on GDC. It's so  silent on here.
Guys, it's Dookie. And AI. At the same time. In one show. Fuck. 🤠

It's because they already announced they're doing this at every show on the entire upcoming tour, the excitement for it happened when we found that out.

Did they announce playing both albums in full at Echoplex? Idk.

I recently received my copy of Saviors on vynil and something called my attention: Butch Walker appears in "Goodbye Adeline". Can we assume that song is a FOAM leftover?

No. Wikipedia lists him simply playing acoustic guitar instead of producing. Fever is definitely FOAM leftover, production makes it clear. Why did Butch play acoustic on Goodnight Adeline, only god knows. Maybe Making of Goodnight Adeline will showcase that?

I’d sell my soul for a ticket to see Insomniac & Nimrod played in full…so many unplayed jams. 

I would want a 1997-2002 era tour.      Nimrod, warning, superhits and Shenanigans.  Oh man.   That's what the afterlife will be like.

I think it's not a FOAM left over, but I think they started recording demos for Saviors in late 2020 with Butch Walker and later decided to record the album with Rob Cavallo. Maybe also for legal reasons they listed Butch Walker on every track for additional engineering.

Sometimes I wonder if they released saviors too early in the new year perhaps may would've been better feels like it's already dropped off the radar

I hope they start to pick up promotion with Dilemma or something as their your approaches

Been a while since release and I found myself looking back at this video I did looking at all the TikTok teasers -- is it just me, or is this little snippet (timestamped in the link, 0:28) not present on the album anywhere? Wondering if it's possibly a song that got cut and if so whether there are any other B sides that we might end up hearing at some point. Unless I'm just being stupid (very possible) and it's definitely on the album somewhere? I know it's only two chords, but being accompanied by drums makes you think that's got to be something 🤔

Sounds like a snippet from Fever 🤔

Album sales equal to 220,000 according to a Facebook post.  So.......Green Day or at least Jillie Bow is always writing.   There's got to be at least a batch of new songs written, even if they will eventually be scrapped or transformed or combined with other ideas.   Not enough for a thread right now, but Album 15 is coming.  

Probably won't hear anything in 2025.      In 2026, they will likely be silent. Silent but working.  

2027 we'll probably get the initial rumblings.  Rumored to be in the studio and all that drama. Maybe some leaks.  Toward the end of 27 we'll get a better idea of what's happening. Either an album pops out before 2028 or in 2028.

I would agree that he has probably been writing songs. He said that he writes songs in daydreams, so he probably has had atleast a couple of them. I feel like the years between now and 2028 they will keep us calm by releasing more anniversaries with more demos/unheard tracks. Do you think they will release any singles in between now and 2028?

What I always hate about these ''new album'' speculations is that they always start way too soon. They haven't even started the goddamn Saviors Tour and people are already guessing when's the next album coming out. It gives me the feeling that people never truly enjoy the albums they put out and get bored ridiculously easy. I for example have no desire for new Green Day songs right now, because the ones that they put out will easily carry over Saviors Tour and I can't get bored of most of the songs Saviors has.

There can always be delays with albums that people don't consider. For example, I think it's time for The Coverups to release a cover album. Drain You definitely deserves a studio version and they could throw one-two Coverups exclusive songs there aswell. Then there is Foxboro that hasn't done anything since 2008 (assuming you don't count Dos! as second Foxboro album, 'cause I don't) and Longshot has been on pause for several years aswell. Green Day could also finally produce stripped down acoustic album, which Billie proved with his ''Welcome to my panic'' podcast episode that it could really work. They could also release B-side album again, with hopefully State of Shock getting better version and speaking of Trilogy, they wanted to put out some ''best of trilogy'' album.

All in all, I hate new album speculations. This is not directed to one single person, just general statement.

It's been a good era for sure.   Fingers crossed that it goes smoothly all the way to it's natural end.

I agree. We need to start speculating when the band is confirmed to be in the studio, that's how it was done with Saviors (then rumored to be named 1972).

I was in a rush for new music after the last few records, but right now I’m not even thinking about it. I think I was in a rush before because the music wasn’t as satisfactory. Saviors is so good that it’s quenching my thirst and I’m enjoying it still months later. It’s honestly a great record. I’ll always be excited for new Green Day, but this is a quality product that will keep me happy and satisfied for quite some time, I think.
