noonoo Posted August 15, 2016 Posted August 15, 2016 If the band thinks it's a fun thing to do, then why the hell not. They inducted GN'R into the HOF, so the connection is there. Ofc they could play a more traditional secret gig, in a club for 500 fans, but I think there will be a lot more fans in that stadium that will enjoy the show. It takes balls to play, for the first time in years and some new songs, in front of that many people, especially if they have to win over many of them. All this "Green Day shouldn't open for anyone, new songs for real fans first, GN'R tour is a failure" is BS, just more reasons why GD should do it. MSL, the admin of Gnrtruth.com, didn't 100% confirm this, but he hinted that GN'R will have a very special opening act and when the rumor started on here he wrote "the cat is out of the bag".

They are all ready giving away tickets here in Brisbane for an event people don't know where or who is playing "The biggest concert event of 2017" (hardly)

Green Day have sold around 75 Millions albums versus Metallica's 110 Million. Someone took Green Day off of wikipedia's "Best Selling Arists of all time" list. They are supposed to be #88 but now they are off the list. Somebody fix that crap. Thanks Well if we doing record sales then GnR has GD beat by a lot has well
jnine13 Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 I already have pit tickets both nights so I hope so! The GnR forums all think it's going to be Green Day. JJ1964, GnR doesn't have a new album, so it isn't not selling well, it isn't selling at all. They opened for the Stones. I know, this isn't the Stones.

Can't wait for all your pictures, videos, the set list and reactions. So far you're our best hope for information. Oh, and enjoy too.

Yeah last GnR release was in 2008 and went platinum the last REAL GnR album (meaning with slash duff izzy) was Use Your Illusion and sold 14 million all of GnR albums are platinum or multiple platinum

I told think you should think of it as an opening act - they are friends & its just down the road from their house
PursuitOfEpicness Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 I think it's totally true. I wouldn't worry about them opening for GNR, it is GNR's tour and they have invited some great acts that are popular, it's not a legit world tour where they are stuck opening for them like a crummy band no one knows. It will be cool to hear about the new songs if it does indeed happen. Hope some of you guys can make it!

You are also responsible for all possible information. Thanks. I'm really jealous. I've never been to Dodger Stadium and my last company does the food service so it would be extra fun to see a lot of friends in addition to a GD show. Have fun!
