Random Green Day News - 2024

[Fuzz]

A new topic to post news about Green Day that may not warrant it's own thread but that you want to share. This could be things like small mentions of the band in articles or social media, random sightings of Green Day songs or other pop culture references. If it's something noteworthy (like new interviews or big news), make a dedicated topic about it. 

 

 

Here's a link to the old Random Green Day news topic if you'd like to see.

What does the word ‘Dookie’ mean?

4 Intriguing Unreleased Rock Albums From the 1990s and 2000s

1. ‘Cigarettes And Valentines’ by Green Day

The 2000 Green Day album Warning was a stellar piece of work. After that album was released, the band got to work on a punk album to be titled Cigarettes And Valentines. By 2003, it was almost finished. Unfortunately, the masters were inexplicably stolen from their studio.

In a way, it was a good thing. Green Day had to work from the basics to make something completely different, which ended up being their famous album American Idiot. A few songs from Cigarettes And Valentines survived and were repurposed for later albums, and all of the songs from the lost album were performed and released as a live album.

I don't know how reliable this is (and it's in Portuguese) but it says that Green Day will headline the I Wanna Be Festival in Brasil in February 2025

Time of Your Life will be in the new Deadpool movie coming out next friday on the 26th.

Can't wait to see this movie. Already have my tickets for the first screening on the 25th

I saw that, it would be interesting to know how much that one song has earned them, between this and the VW ad and anything else I can’t think of right now.

Same journalist said that band doesn't confirm this. Apparently, the producer of the festival told him the band would be headlining this but the band is denying. Tickets for the festival begin to be sold today

What a mess. Sounds to me like maybe the producer leaked this info to boost sales (given the timing of tickets going on sale today just as these news come out), while the deal with Green Day is probably not yet closed.

yeah, it seems it was just it, the producers sold the journalist the "information' to boost sales, but the information reached the band management that said it wasn't true and they are not even negotiating

So "When I Come Around" enters in the green day song podium on their spotify. it's in the second place now, and if we'd look on the numbers, its gaining insane daily numbers now, more than any other single (currently 819,000 daily -+). What is happening? Is it some Tiktok hype thing?

[billy1986]

When I Come Around was the biggest hit charting wise on Dookie and deserves to get 1 billion streams so whatever is going on it deserves it

[A Worry Rock]

Holiday jam track is free in Fortnite for completing Tier 1 of the Summer Road Trip quest. You need to get 60,000 xp in creative island maps to unlock the song for free. 

The free quest will be available for the next two weeks.

When I Come Around has shot up to #2 on their most popular tracks on Spotify. Wonder what caused this boost?

It's kind of a spoiler but if you wanna know
 

Spoiler

it was at the end credit scene. they were showing old footage and BTS from x-men, blade from 1998, elektra from 2005, the first fantastic four. It was really emotionnal when you see them like 20 years later in this movie

 

[Flashback]

Chris Lord-Alge gave a very in-depth interview in this podcast about his work and the music he produced and mixed. He also mentioned Green Day a couple times (btw he's a fan of One Eyed Bastard 😄). Huge recommendation for everyone interested in making music!

Good Riddance is getting a bump in Spotify streams. Probably due to being in Deadpool. 677k per day and up to #5 recently most popular for Green Day.
