A teeny bit more info:

GREEN DAY TO PERFORM ON "NBC'S NEW YEARS EVE WITH CARSON DALY"

Universal City, CA-November 5, 2009-Three-time Grammy Award-winning Reprise Records rock band Green Day will help usher in 2010 on "NBC's New Year's Eve with Carson Daly." The band's eighth studio album, 21st Century Breakdown, was released on May 15, 2009 and has reached #1 in fourteen different countries, hitting Gold or Platinum in each.

The two-hour special will air live on Thursday, December 31, beginning in primetime from 10-11 p.m. (ET), and continuing at 11:30 PM (ET) with the countdown to 2010 and the first performances of the New Year. "NBC's New Year's Eve with Carson Daly" will broadcast in high definition from the middle of the world's most famous New Year's Eve destination, Times Square in New York City. Green Day's commitment continues the show's remarkable tradition of great performances by the music industry's most popular artists.

"We have built a great tradition of having the best and biggest music acts on our New Year's Eve live broadcast; having Green Day this year only solidifies that. I'm beyond excited," said Daly. "Green Day will make this year's show a TV event to remember on NBC."

In 2008, 8.6 million viewers tuned in to watch "NBC's New Year's Eve With Carson Daly." This special, which premiered in 2004, delivered its fourth straight year of gains scoring its biggest ratings results to date.

"NBC's New Year's Eve with Carson Daly" is executive-produced by Daly ("Last Call with Carson Daly") and David Friedman ("Last Call with Carson Daly") through Universal Media Studios. Guy Oseary ("Last Call with Carson Daly") is co-executive producer.

Thanks for the info Tanya. I wonder if they are gonna play outside or in and where? NBC studios are Rock Center, right? Hmmm, would be nicer in there than freezing our nuts off on the street, lol. Can we just skip thru the other holidays now and go right to New Year's?

^Ohh that would be awesome if they were playing in the studio, because maybe I would be able to go then :D

Man I used to go to NYC all the time. I really miss it. I would die to see them there even if I'm surrounded by a million people and a mile away haha I'm really gonna try to go :D

I hope they perform on the 30 Rock rink. :D

Hopefully they'll play off and on in those two hours and not just once.

If I recall correctly, the Ting Tings performed in 08/09 and they performed at least two songs, so I think we'll get at least two songs!

I'm hoping Billie gets wasted and fucks up the words ... again :lol:

My mom just told me about this because it's in our paper, so it's getting attention in the media already! :)

you guys, the press release says "from the middle of Times Square." but yes, whether that means that they themselves will be at Rock Plaza or the Square, who knows. Either would be great. I have an account on 1ioata, from the MTV awards, it would be great if they gave out tickets to this to some diehard fans.

AND DETAIL! I'd feel like and idiot if I were at the square and they ended up playing at Rock Center. But, part of me hopes it's the Square... Can you just imagine hearing 21CB from the middle of the Square on NYE's. I think my head explodes just thinking of it... Haha

Someone said that they got a message from tre. I guess it's legit. The press release pretty much said it was from the middle of the square, but it was rather vague about if it was the show itself or them. Bummer.
