What does do the roman numerals XI (eleven) refer to on the Green Day guitar picks with the cat, from the 21st Century Breakdown Tour? I think that these were used by Jason White.

I read that book. I thought it was really good, it gives you lots of interesting information :)

You're right in thinking that's Jason's pick. I've been wondering the same thing actually.

Jason's 2010 US tour picks had the same cat but with 'JW' in the 21CB font instead of the 'XI'

I was thinking it may refer to the number of years he's been playing with Green Day but that's just my guess, and it may just be a coincidence.

Does anyone know if there's somewhere I can buy merch from the South American tour? I've checked ebay but maybe I missed something?

This is probably a really stupid question but I didn't pay much attention to the GD Rusty Wired Series hoodies until recently, the official site says they're available at Pacsun in December - is that this December coming up or was it last December and they're sold out? I'm sure I should know that but I don't remember...

It's December coming up. They first went on sale in June this year and sold out quite quickly and they are doing a second lot in December :) They are really nice hoodies

Does anyone know what show this is from and is that Michael Mayer in the background with a camera?

Posted

It was during the General Motors' 3rd Annual Fashion Show, in Hollywood, CA on Feb 24, 2004.

And I don't think it's Michael Mayer in the background.

wow how do you know that? :o

I'm assuming you mean the one with the Adeline Logo...

It's a Gibson Les Paul Special Double Cutaway (not sure what year) that was either custom made or just given a new paint job

Very similar to this: Gibson Custom 1960 Special Double Cut VOS

As far as I know, there isn't official merch from the South American Tour. I mean, I got a T-shirt, but is not original (it's like a copy of the originals, but is not original), and a poster, but that was made by Cristal En Vivo and DG Medios, the guys that brought Green Day to Chile.

Don't know if it's been asked yet but.. is there definitely gonna be a new album in 2011/2012?

They'll be a live CD/DVD, but other than that, it's impossible to say.

As said, the live album will be out next year.

No official news on a band new album date. In my own opinion I would not expect a new album until 2013, at the earliest.

They like to take their time to put out the best possible music. Besides they also have plenty of side projects to work on, as well as time for their personal lives.

So I think we will have quite a while. But we know it's worth every second of the wait.

Because I'm kind of obsessed with pictures! :lol:

I like to save all the pics I find, and I put them in a folder with the name of the event/show, the place and the date. And good for "Ellenkc", this picture was saved on my computer :lol:

Thanks, I was totally clueless! Hopefully I can get one in time for Christmas.

Ohh okay, thanks!

But if anyone finds any of the unofficial stuff from the South American tour online let me know :)

I was watching the videos from the Fox theater show, and during ¿Viva la Gloria? (Little Girl), right during the solo, Billie says something which I think it's either in italian or latin (sounds like one of those):

1. what does he says?

2. anyone know what language is it? (it's been bugging me for some time now)

Greenday tour to South Africa..... when can we expect Greenday in South Africa again...?

No one on here can answer that. This is a fan website so we don't know when and where they are touring next. The best thing to do is wait for the new album and hope they go there on there next tour.

Green Day just ended a huge world tour and they went to many places where they haven't been in years or ever before. Unfortunately not everyone can get what they want.

Maybe on their next tour they will stop there. It is impossible to know for sure though.
