farley drexel hatcher Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 I think it's highly unlikely Green Day would play Download. Plus to whoever asked, you can buy day tickets at around £30 each but apparently they sell fast. I think an ticket for the whole weekend (including camping costs) last year was around £160 which is a lot of money but not when you consider what you get for it.
brownie Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 download is fairly likely, as they've said before they like to play festivals they havent played before, and the organizer (paul something?) mentioned at the fan forum green day, slipknot and ac/dc were all high possibilities.
Ally Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 I heard this too, but guess we will have to wait and find out
hardtoconcentrate Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 Interesting! It seems pretty likely. I don't really like going to festivals (even though I go to one every year) and I would much rather see a band at their own exclusive gig. At this rate, I'll take them in any shape or form though

At this rate, I'll take them in any shape or form though Urgh I hate festivals to, I'm too old for them now, all that mud, cold and noise, give me a gig indoors and my own bed at the end of the night and i'm like a pig in shit Saying that I'd do anything and go anywhere to see this bloody band
Yellow Felony Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 I just got a tip off from a girl who is a band photographer is a member of an online Reading club; she tells me Green Day are set to be headlining it this year. i will update this in a second when she copy and pastes me it and sends me a screenshot. i wouldn't believe me either, i know that. this is what i'm hearing though, and it is from a trustworthy source. --- OK, so: she's not allowed to copy and paste all of it. the first two lines are: READING/LEEDS FESTIVAL 2009 MEMBERS. Subject: BREAKING NEWS! Body: We have just had almost full confirmation that Green Day, will be headlining the event on the Sunday, 30th August 2009. With such guests as, Muse, Slipknot, Kings of Leon, and other big names, also rumoured to play, on the last day. We are very excited to be able to tell you this news. Sweet! Can't wait! Maybe (as sad as this may sound) I could go to my first, ever, concert! But anyway... I hope its all true.
music_that_is Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 Great news I'm looking forward to watching them on tv or youtube..
4thWarmasterKais Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 Green Day and Muse at the same festival? My wildest dream just might come true. I agree, that would be an epic lineup
Princess Consuela Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 Plus to whoever asked, you can buy day tickets at around £30 each but apparently they sell fast. I think an ticket for the whole weekend (including camping costs) last year was around £160 which is a lot of money but not when you consider what you get for it. Thank you. £30 is not so bad but in my case I must add much more money to come to UK and live there for a few days. So I'll definitely wait for them in Poland
Kaddi. Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 Would be great if this really happened Not, because I could go there to see them live, but just because it would mean that the album will be released before the festival starts and because it also means that they'll be touring. I hope they'll come to Germany
the_reject Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 that's awesome dude, that would mean green day would be touring! yay! i hate slipknot but kings of leon are cool so that sounds like a really good line up! woo
Joey Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 Day tickets are a shitload more than £30. Think £70-80.
Hermione Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 ^Lol that's what I was just thinking. Watching on TV ftw!
Ally Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 i don't like many of the band who are on the festival, i'll be watchin on tv me thinks.
chickin'pickin' Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 Meh. Too expensive for just Green Day. If there are some good acts worth seeing, it's a possibility i'll go.
14razorbacks Posted January 5, 2009 Author Posted January 5, 2009 Meh. Too expensive for just Green Day. If there are some good acts worth seeing, it's a possibility i'll go. muse, no? I reckon if Green Day aren't touring England more in 09 then I'll see them in Reading; if they are playing lots of green day only shows in UK then I might still go to reading, but only if I get to go to see a GD show as well.
chickin'pickin' Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 Because i'm going to pay for Green Day and a band I don't like....
Guitar4Girl Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 Yay! .....but how much is it? I think last year it was around £50 or something, is it the same this year?
14razorbacks Posted January 5, 2009 Author Posted January 5, 2009 Because i'm going to pay for Green Day and a band I don't like.... you don't like muse? fair enough Yay! .....but how much is it? I think last year it was around £50 or something, is it the same this year? Apparently like £60+ kinda a lot, which is why I'm only going if Green Day don't play other UK shows in 09.
The Disappearing Boy Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 not surprising, but still good news
Nova-Caine Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 Because i'm going to pay for Green Day and a band I don't like.... You dislike Muse too? We should start a club, how many of the same bands do we hate?
