yes, I know that feeling, it was awhile ago for me, but I remember it well.  I will try and record some for you, at least get Billy Gibbons on guitar.  

Thank you :D

BTW, since we're discussing touring now, how expensive are good GD tickets usually? I don't have the personal cash to even buy an Idiot Nation membership; I exhausted the piggybank funds awhile ago, and I don't get an allowance.

Wasn't it you who said they haven't renewed their membership for three years and are still part of the Idiot Nation? :P 

Oh God, the best of luck to you. (Wouldn't it be awful though if they played a secret show within the two weeks but it would be so secret you would never even find out about it oops. Although as proven, Green Day aren't very good at keeping secrets, so I don't think there's need for worry lol)

Yeah I can log in to the site (loads of people can btw not just me) but I've never used it for anything other than watching videos since it expired. I wouldn't want to enter contests or anything without knowing I'm definitely down as a current member, so if I'm going to take advantage of presales etc I'll renew. Plus they'll probably sort out the still being able to log in thing once they/the band are actually doing something :P

I think I paid about 60 or 70 € for pit standing for the concert at the Emirates Stadium in London. But I got them from viagogo, so :) But I don't think they're as expensive as they could have made them. They're definitely affordable.

Woah, that's a good price. I'm excited. I tried to score tickets for Sabbath's "The End' tour this year, but most of the tickets were going at upwards of $600, and I didn't feel like that was worth it.

How do you guys think the album will do? Could it be possible that it would sell like 21st Century Breakdown did?

There's absolutely no way to know this. It depends on how the songs sound and how connected people feel to it.

$60-$70 for pit tickets, plus whatever fees. I've never paid more than $85.

Well yeah that's true I guess. Hopefully it will do better than the trilogy though.

That's very reasonable. :)

I'm guessing after the disaster that was the trilogy they paid more attention to the songs and such

GD is one of those bands that try to keep the ticket prices reasonable for the fans.

Sure is, especially for the pit experience. A huge reason I've stuck with GD over the years is that they keep the ticket prices low and are considerate of fans, when they could raise prices and make more on tour.

My level of respect for them has considerably risen yet again.

A bit off-topic but I found this on Tumblr today and it hasn't let me go since. Clearly GDC aren't (or weren't) the only Green Day fans losing their minds in the waiting for any kind of announcement.

Thought I'd share.

Confirmed - Green Day's first single will be an ode to garlic bread

Speaking of this photo, I've been thinking that maybe this photo is from a video shoot!!! And what if #liveoutloud is a song title?!?!?

Do not believe everything you read on an internet forum.  :)

My initial reaction.

 

 

Plus, the only thing I have posted recently.

I think the thing I'm looking forward to the most is being able to finally put The Trilogy in the rear view mirror. Not that I didn't like it, but it will be nice knowing that there is something else coming that hopefully performs better than it's predecessor.

I'm thinking we get the new single sometime this week.
