Doesn't really make sense since there's not been any shows. No more information on the official site either, which is a shame because I have some really good live photos.

No more information on the official site either, which is a shame because I have some really good live photos. I'd just send them all in. They've got to pick at least one of yours!
The Grohl Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 I only take photos from my phone and I know people have fancy cameras...so mine probably wouldn't even have a chance
pasalaska Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 it's any live photos Oh awesome, thanks for the information. Are the 'prize packs' limited to US only?
farley drexel hatcher Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 That hash tag is full of photos that the uploaders blatantly haven't taken! They're uploading pro shots and other fan shots. I don't think this will work as planned, wouldn't be fair if the winner didn't even take the photo.

DannyDirnt Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 I guess that live photo contest is just for pics you've taken yourself, so that leaves me out Good luck!
pasalaska Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 I submitted a couple of photos, fingers crossed. I want to know what the prize packs are.
Todd Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 This may be a good chance to get some more photos for the gdt live guide
pasalaska Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 There's an alarming number of video screen-caps and old, very well-known professional photos being tagged for the contest. I wish they'd update the contest with some more details.
tvrman Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 I have entered because if a miracle happens I know my daughter will want the merch pack (says he who recently won the Yorkie Hero of the week award, and I told her she could not have any of my Yorkie bars because they are 'not for girls' (the Brits should understand that one). Oh I relented it was a big box of Yorkies. fwiw I entered one of Tre singing All By Myself at the SBE last September. Goodness knows what other ones I will pick. If a 'pro' photo wins the first one I will not be entering any of the other weeks, but then it is the shambles that is gd.com....
IcyMoffatt Posted March 6, 2013 Posted March 6, 2013 I would love to participate, but I don't know how to use Instagram. I took a very beautiful shot of Mike during a Green Day concert in Montreal 2 and a half years ago. The picture kind of looks like it was taken by a professionnal. My other pictures are not so good.
momoluvGD Posted March 6, 2013 Posted March 6, 2013 I would love to enter but I've never seen Green Day live, therefore I don't have any pictures! Good luck to everyone entering!!
Hermione Posted March 6, 2013 Posted March 6, 2013 Bit weird that they have cameras banned at most shows and frequently rant against cameras in the crowd but would then have a live photo contest
It's Splash Time Posted March 6, 2013 Posted March 6, 2013 I would love to enter but I've never seen Green Day live, therefore I don't have any pictures! Good luck to everyone entering!! This. Kinda annoying that it narrows down those that can enter to people who've been to a show and have instagram (clearly requiring a smartphone etc.).
solongfromthestars Posted March 6, 2013 Posted March 6, 2013 Submitted a couple of pics from Manchester 2010. They're shit quality but worth a try
pasalaska Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 So it's a winner every Monday, and the contest opened on the 3rd, do we know who the winner was for March 4th? I can't find anything...
pasalaska Posted March 13, 2013 Posted March 13, 2013 Well this is a happening contest. I just want some sort of update D:
Tommy's Tonsils Posted March 13, 2013 Posted March 13, 2013 It's a shame this contest exists. The last thing I want to see is everyone's camera phone in the air taking pictures of the band the whole time :/
