Well, I got a message from someone who´s working for some festivals and bands to organize their concerts and stuff and he said they´re not going to play any festival in 2009.. :/ Does anyone know about that?

I would be the last person to know anything official.

BUT I'm certain that they would play some festivals as part of promoting the new album.

You know, before they set any official tour dates or anything.

^Yeah. I don't know anything either :D, but I'm thinking maybe it could be that they're just not known to be playing any festivals yet. So right at this moment they're not officially doing any festivals just because they haven't released that info to anyone, but they could very well be down to do some.

Or maybe they just don't happen to be playing any of the festivals that bloke's involved with.

I just assume they would be playing one of the festivals as the normally do but then this is GD we shouldn't assume anything. I am kind of hoping for something special from this tour though, seeing as it is 20 years of Green Day this year. God knows what this band could come up with, I mean did anyone expect them to take the Foxies on such a small intimate tour?

I'd love them to do some small venues on this tour, do a kind of '20 Years History tour'. If that makes sense.

Or 20 nights at Brixton Academy, i'm not fussy :D

I would LOVE to go to one of those small intimate concerts.

I don't think they would come to Australia and put on a small show though.

Man I wish I lived in America.

They did Reading 2004 a month before AI was released, I don't see why they wouldn't do Reading 2009 a few months after the release of

their new album

this spring.

Wtf! You live in Aussie!! Why say such a thing :o

I'm sort of counting on them to play at Reading - I know I shouldn't, but I've begun to plan a trip there already. :lol:

When do they usually announce the headliners?

Posted

Well, I've already been saving up for a trip to England to visit my friend...perhaps I can just work 3 jobs instead of 2 in order to get there by August :woot:

Mmm they also did the Ambassador Theatre in Dublin a few months before American Idiot. Let's hope they do the same again this time around as it's a wonderfully small venue (for the likes of Green Day to play there anyway). That would be pretty amazing :D

Sometime in March I think, but the tickets go quick so I'd buy them on the day they go on sale :)

Tickets were released at the end of March last year, or so.

I've already got my ticket so I'm sitting pretty comfortably come release day.

Bear in mind this is the Daily Star, so don't expect gospel but it's not irresponsible to share potentially flawed knowledge.

If you can't be fucked to follow the link, it basically says that Green Day are coming to the UK in the Summer for an arena tour and to play Reading. Apparently.

Posted
:o damn I want them on Pinkpop sooo bad...
Posted

i can't imagine they would say that without any basis. it makes sense. im about 75-80% sure they'll do reading/leeds this year.

Posted

^I can imagine they would :lol:. But I don't think it's with no basis in this case, I reckon they'll play it.

Posted

Arena tour?!!

I'm definitely going to UK this summer!!!

Thanks for posting!

Ooooooooooooooh that's interesting, hopefully its true!!
