aldyofficial Posted August 17, 2012 Posted August 17, 2012 Green Day have suggested they may perform a 3,000 date tour following the release of their album trilogy '¡Uno!', '¡Dos!', '¡Tre!'. The band claim the only way to do the three album release justice with live shows is to stage something equally ambitious on a tour. "The full tour, we'll probably do about 3,000 shows," says bassist Mike Dirnt in an interview with MTV. "Right now, we're just warming up and getting ready to go out there, start swinging. The sky is the limit right now." "We're just going to keep going. We want to play a lot of small clubs, a lot of theaters, a lot of arenas, and then who knows what else." Frontman Billie Joe Armstrong also revealed the band are constantly influenced by new bands, naming Best Coast among the acts they currently rate highly. "After our first records on [record label] Lookout!, and 'Dookie' all the way though '21st Century Breakdown', it was always about taking the right kind of risks," says Armstrong. "But, not trying to do something where you're pushing too hard to try to evolve into something that you're not. It takes time, and we always listen to younger bands; we really like a band called the Biters, and Best Coast. It's just a matter of letting yourself evolve."

Ritz Posted August 17, 2012 Posted August 17, 2012 3000. Hope you guys are coming to India this time around
It's Splash Time Posted August 17, 2012 Posted August 17, 2012 Guys. 3000 shows at one per day would make over 8 years. They won't be touring for that long. Basically someone took a jokey quote from Mike and made it into an article. There will be a massive tour, but not 8 years.
WestboundSign! Posted August 17, 2012 Posted August 17, 2012 Oh lord, that would be such a huge tour! But it somehow can't work, can it? No matter how many shows that might be in the end, I really hope they'll play shows in all the countries they haven't so far!
Ritz Posted August 17, 2012 Posted August 17, 2012 Oh lord, that would be such a huge tour! I really hope they'll play shows in all the countries they haven't so far! Pray for an Indian tour date ! 3000 i impractical I guess

Pixus Posted August 17, 2012 Posted August 17, 2012 Oh, does that mean they'll come to India this time? EDIT : But hey, 3,000 shows? I don't really think so, it might be a very long tour but naw. And, I really hope they come to India.

I still think they're planning a pretty long tour, Mike could have just pointed that out while saying that.

aldyofficial Posted August 17, 2012 Author Posted August 17, 2012 if this really happen,pretty sure that this will be boring era
WestboundSign! Posted August 17, 2012 Posted August 17, 2012 Oh, it will be a long tour, just not that long. I never said that!
Katarina. Posted August 17, 2012 Posted August 17, 2012 Yeah he said that in that MTV interview after the premier of Oh Love (I think). Have you guys ever heard of a joke or a hyperbole? Basically Mike says "We're going to play a lot of shows on the next tour."
Sanity Loan Posted August 17, 2012 Posted August 17, 2012 "Come to India!" "Come to Brazil!" "Come to (insert country here)!!!"
