Popular Post Dingle Posted January 29 Popular Post Posted January 29 The following statement has appeared on fromt page of greenday.fm:- January 28, 2025 – 7:15PM GREENDAY.FM IS CLOSING First of all, thank you to everyone that has visited this site over the past 6.5 years and especially those who have contributed their time and energy to help build it. Huge thank-you to Todd who was instrumental in building the audio archive and also contributing a ton of research and knowledge to all areas of the website. Due to a lack of time to properly commit to maintaining and growing this website, GreenDay.fm will permanently shut down on March 9, 2025. Starting today, there will be no further news updates or updates to any of the pages on the site. Our sister site, GreenDayLive.fm, will continue on and some features from this site will be moved there. This site originally launched way back in 1996 and died out about 6 years later in 2002. So I guess it’s fitting that the resurrected version of that old website would suffer the same fate after 6 years as well. Thank you again for visiting, hope to see you all on our Discord and at GreenDayLive.fm. – Jason This is devastating news. I can't believe this is happening. I feel so sorry for Jason who has dedicated his life to the current and previous site launched in 1996. The information on this site, a lot where you can listen to unreleased songs, demos and covers, live performances and much much more. There's also loads of stats that will be lost. Hopefully some info can be saved as suggested on sister site greendaylive.fm. I don't know if this is possible but can some of the databases be passed to GDA? Thank you so much Jason for all your hard work and efforts. I've really loved your site, and I have learnt so much more about this band thanks to you. I will miss it very much. Every happiness to you for the future. 1 11 1 Quote
pacejunkie punk Posted January 29 Posted January 29 This is terrible news the site is a great resource for rare audio, tour stats and history. I hope most of that can be saved. Much appreciation to Jason and Todd for all of their hard work over the years 1 1 Quote
PhuzzyPhriend Posted January 29 Posted January 29 This is a real bummer. That was a great site. I especially miss the Idiot Forum that they ran in 2023 (it died due to what I understand was a technical disaster in late 2023). That was arguably the friendliest and best-run fan community on the Internet. I totally get what Jason means about the time commitment though. The amount of work he did by himself was astounding. I know this is about to seem like a shameless plug, but if anyone else is also interested in growing Green Day fan spaces on the Internet, I have been running this one for about a year: https://idiotparadise.proboards.com/ I also have very little time for it between being a college instructor, PhD student, and caregiver for my father, so it is pretty small and quiet, but if anyone would like to help it grow, I can use all the help I can get LOL. 1 Quote
alienlifeform Posted January 29 Posted January 29 I can't believe this is happening. It's really sad to lose so many content and a well organized site like gdfm 1 Quote
jengd Posted January 29 Posted January 29 This is so sad, I loved the Idiot Forum and was very sorry it collapsed but I guess many of us only have so much time on our hands, I know I’ve been bad at visiting GreenDay.FM recently! Quote
Popular Post Liam Posted January 30 Popular Post Posted January 30 Another year, another site GDA/GDC outlives it is a shame though, I quite enjoyed the site and a lot of the info. Thankfully it won’t be lost forever as I know who has 99% of it saved. Definitely wanna find a way to incorporate it into GDA/GDC 6 1 Quote
Gwen Stacy Posted January 30 Posted January 30 Jeez, that's really a bummer, it was such a good resource. Really makes me take a step back and truly appreciate GDC. I've been coming here for almost 15 years now. That's nucking futz. I really don't know what I would do if GDC went away... 4 Quote

As a new fan I've only been here since June but I'm already addicted to the GDC and have to look here at least once a day... 😂 2 Quote
nowshesgone Posted January 30 Posted January 30 (edited) I just wanna add that I sincerely hope the recording history survives in some way And that it's also properly finished in some way (i.e: finishing insomniac and American Idiot, reworking C&V and Demolicous pages, Saviors recording history) Edited January 30 by nowshesgone Spelling 2 Quote
Little Boy Named Booze Posted January 30 Posted January 30 Crazy... 11th year on GDC and I'm not gonna lie even tho I'm not online like I used to be, it would be sad if this website close one day. Long live to GDC. Farewell to fm. 3 Quote
GreenDayJunkie86 Posted January 30 Posted January 30 This is sad. Though I didn't use greenday.fm a whole lot, it is sad to see something I have known go away. Long live to GDC , @Little Boy Named Booze 1 Quote
