-Billiejoezee- Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 I'm disapointed. I'll wait till billie tweets about this.
Tripe Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 Not good enough. let me text Billie and tell him to call people who still don't believe me. http://greenday.com/node/8581 Ooh, snarky! Like it!
valeriesername Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 according to LA Times, the city of Burbank said that green day were planning to do the show on the streets near Warner Brother Records. That wouldve been Wild!
Fuzz Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 http://latimesblogs....-announced.html While minimal details were unveiled, the show was, according to a cancellation notice, going to be "massive." A representative from the city of Burbank tells Pop & Hiss that Green Day was looking to stage a concert on the streets near its record label, Warner Bros. Records. "Initially," said Joy Forbes, Burbank's deputy city manager, "they said it was for Warner Bros. employees and some friends and family. The original request was for a private event." The band applied for a street use permit, but Armstrong's very-public tweets raised some eyebrows, as suddenly the concert was looking to be not-so-private. With Warner Bros. Records adjacent to a residential community, the city expressed its concerns. Forbes said the city was ready to welcome Green Day with open arms, and suggested other locations as a compromise. The outdoor amphitheater the Starlight Bowl was suggested, as was Johnny Carson Park. Either location would have eased fire and police concerns, and could have each accommodated around 5,000 or so guests. Forbes said the city was told that the more traditional venues were not what the band was looking for.

Hidingfromcrazies Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 I called it. A few pages back as soon as I heard the Burbank thing, I said either Starlight or the WB (Reprise) Lot. You did! Good thing money wasnt involved! I would have lost.
Hermione Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 http://latimesblogs....-announced.html Aww...the city is a wuss. Surely a more "traditional" venue is better than nothing though? If it's the only option they should dew it!
desertrose Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 "The outdoor amphitheater the Starlight Bowl was suggested, as was Johnny Carson Park." Come on boys, do it. Why wouldn't they do that if the city suggested it? Forbes said the city was told that the more traditional venues were not what the band was looking for. Would have been great to see them there anyway.
TaylorKlinke Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 Aww...the city is a wuss. Surely a more "traditional" venue is better than nothing though? If it's the only option they should dew it! Maybe this means they're currently looking for another place that will let them do this, if they had an exact vision of what they want it to be...and maybe that's why Billie Joe hasn't tweeted about it yet. A free show on the street, now that sounds like Green Day. I hope it happens because I would love to hear about it.

A free show on the street, now that sounds like Green Day. I hope it happens because I would love to hear about it. I hope so too! But if they can't do it at a cool place like they want I hope they just do it somewhere less cool instead. A slightly less cool show is better than no show
valeriesername Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 I suggest that Green Day should have at the Johnny Carson Park. I think that would be an appropriate place for dancing, and especially for ''weirdos and punishers" . And the Starlight Bowl is more like for a Coldplay concert .I'm pretty sure you cant dance on the seats that are everywhere..as Billie would say, " Stand the fuck up and get crazy!!! This isn't a fucking Coldplay concert!''
walkingcatastrophe Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 Yeah, I'm sure they will probably do something. I think it's funny that your contact with GD said basically verbatim what mine said about not having any info, something is surely in the works, and going to be SUPER secret

walkingcatastrophe Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 Plus it is a bit odd neither billie nor green day has said they're sorry it's not happening.
valeriesername Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 @walking catastrophie i was thinking the same thing. well they did post that thing on the idiot club about something tomorrow...
Fuzz Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 @walking catastrophie i was thinking the same thing. well they did post that thing on the idiot club about something tomorrow... I'd be surprised if they were related.
Gwen Stacy Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 Green Day will do what they want to do and if the city doesn't want to go along with the specific vision that Green Day has in mind, then fuck them; they boys will find someplace that will let them do exactly what they want to do. Fuck Burbank. Their loss. I'm sure we'll just have to wait a little bit longer for the concert.
walkingcatastrophe Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 hmm. What do you mean by "they"? The cancellation and the idiot club post
Florence Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 The cancellation and the idiot club post I don't think so. In the post they said "something cool coming tomorrow" Cancelling a show isn't a cool, positive thing at all ...
InsideOut Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 I wonder if they were going to film something (like a promo video or a music video), which is why they have such a specific vision on where they want to hold the show.
valeriesername Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 okay, well i guess i should start waiting. 3 hours and 32 minutes until tomorrow...
walkingcatastrophe Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 I don't think so. In the post they said "something cool coming tomorrow" Cancelling a show isn't a cool, positive thing at all ... Probably be like "sorry LA, hey east bay, we're playing Friday!"
-Billiejoezee- Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 wow I'm really angry right now. those streets would of been awesome. Why hasn't billie tweeted something? I REALLY hope they're looking for another place! Why not another city?
