Got my ticket!

I'm so excited - I just took the plunge and bought a Sunday ticket for Riot Fest! Flights are now booked, so I'll be coming over from Ireland for this one

I was supposed to see GD in Vienna back in June, but I was unwell at the time so unfortunately had to cancel my trip so I'm delighted that I'm going to make up for it in Chicago (first time in the Windy City, and first time seeing GD in the USA).

If you want to meet up with someone I have a friend going who'd like to meet other fans. She's not on GDC but asked me to share her Instagram

Have the best time!! Green Day in the US is always a special experience

As I’ve said in some other thread, I will be staying at the stage all day.  Screw alcohol and food.  I will be trying to be as close as possible.  And I shall convince Green Day that they need a 4th live guitarist thank you very much.
