All Activity

Tom/Mark wouldnt steal CAV, they would shit on the master tapes .... now that i think about it

Mark's book is awesome so far, but this rivalry business got me thinking. Why has nobody ever mentioned Blink-182 as the possible identities of The Network? Hmmm.

Woooh! I can't wait either!

Yeah, I found Devil May Cry soundtracks but none with Rage, Green Day and the rest.

This will be a fun stop on the way to Coachella!

Can't wait for this! Schedules out: https://www.bottlerocknapavalley.com/schedule/#/schedule/byVenue

She wasn't that active and isn't on here anymore but it was so funny at the time lol Couple more

That's such a funny and sweet anecdote Do you recall who was this GDCer?

Billie wore a lot of dresses while he was doing the American Idiot musical, to amuse the cast. A GDCer gave him this one outside and he went in and came back out modelling it lmao Here's a video of the cheerleader performance

WHAT IN THE SMOKING HOT HELL IS THAT HOW DID I NOT KNOW THIS WAS A THING

URGHHHHH THE EYELINER AND BLACK HAIR URGHHHHHH

Billie during the American Idiot era was SO HOT. The guyliner--- perfect. The red tie? perfect. His black hair really suited him and I'm so sad its gone 💔 The kerplunk/dookie era was also one of my faves !! If i had to rank i'd be 1. American idiot 2. Kerplunk/Dookie 3. Nimrod Dear LORDD billie was so finnneee in the 90s and 2000s 😫 no words can describe how much i MISS the eyeliner

Drag cheerleader you say?

Say I if Gerard needs to be put in the Fangirls thread lol IIIiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

Full show video!

OMG THANK YOU HIS SOCKS ARE THE BEST PART OF THE OUTFIT Other than the tightness of it all It's like how Gerard Way (resident Emo fan-crush of mine) used to dress up as a drag Cheerleader during My Chemical Romance's last tour But better

Saviors would've gone number one in 2005 I will tell my grandchildren I was at the Saviors Tour It was that rad

Agreed. The alternative station is here I am still hasn’t played the song yet, and usually they are pretty on it when it comes to new singles. Dilemma is still in rotation for them.

At this point the only way a pop disaster 2 happens is if Weezer OR fall out boys are on there as a "netural" party

6 April 2025 On this day 12 years ago (6 April 2013), Green Day played the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, CT on the 99 Revolutions Tour. 31 years ago (6 April 1994), Green Day played the Howden Ballroom in Vancouver, Canada on the Dookie Tour. 34 years ago (6 April 1991), Green Day played Bear's Lair in Berkeley, CA. -------------------------- 7 April 2025 On this day 8 years ago (7 April 2017), Green Day played the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, NV on the Revolution Radio Tour. Oh my God, queuing for this show The entrance to the arena is inside the casino, near a food court. Three different songs were blaring at once. Others remembered Johnny B. Goode – which they were convinced was put on repeat to drive us away – but I only seemed to notice Roar by Katy Perry. The staff eventually said we could stay as long as we stayed awake. Someone tried to sleep in a toilet cubicle. I accidentally fell asleep on a table and a woman claiming to be a manager threatened to have me arrested if it happened again. We moved outside at some point. I don't remember it, but I apparently tried and failed to stop someone asking a prostitute about good places to sleep before falling asleep on the pavement. People started arriving from all over the world in the morning. At doors, a British staff member (called Bill, according to my recap) gave a speech about how he understood how long we'd been there and would get us inside fairly. He did. I wish British staff in Britain were that competent. The VIP tickets were sold out which meant there were 100 of them, but we all got great spots anyway. I was in front of Mike. I was so tired I wrote that I 'felt like I was melting into the barrier,' but the show was AMAZING. 100% worth it and the queue stories were hilarious. Some random tidbits from the recap: Mike was wearing the Otis jacket. Billie began the Holiday bridge with ‘Nevada, Nevada, place your bets!’ After Youngblood, he reluctantly announced ‘I’m kind of getting used to this Las Vegas Raiders thing’ before adding ‘fuck you I’m from Oakland.’ I'm not going to post the whole recap because it's just a load of emotional gushing. I took this photo: More photos: 12 years ago (7 April 2013), Green Day played the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY on the 99 Revolutions Tour. More photos: 16 years ago (7 April 2009), Green Day played The Independent in San Francisco on the 21st Century Breakdown Tour. It was the first time they played the album in full. More photos: 36 years ago (7 April 1989), Green Day (as Sweet Children) played the Veterans Memorial Center in Davis, CA.

I think since they did Hella Mega they might do it if the circumstances were right, like I doubt they'd have resentment towards them now. But there's no particular need for them to and definitely nothing to prove. Honestly surprised Blink are that into the idea when even though their live shows have improved Green Day would still blow them away lol

Why would Green Day tour with Blink again? Even if they'd loved it, they've been there, done that. And the fans do NOT want another package tour, thank you! What a weird thing to complain about.

I saw a quote from the book on Reddit: Yeah it's not new info and I think it's pretty funny since they took it in turns to open on the tour and it was universally acknowledged that Green Day blew them away every night, and Green Day were openly trash talking them during the tour and stating their aim was the show they're the better live act. Green Day were bitter but only that a band they believed to be inferior was more popular than them lol. After their comeback with American Idiot they had nothing more to prove. It's really not a rivalry it's just one band being way better live than the other. Part about a rivalry/rematch is just cope

None of this is new information though, the issue with pop disaster is that while blink had the higher bill, as they were the bigger band at that point, green day were still smashing it, and blink struggled following them every night Difference is after pop disaster gd came back with AI so took over again. So perhaps that was a bit bitter for blink as they’ve never had that kind of resurgence with any of their comebacks. Plus Tom is a douche and using blink now they have the Kardashian connection and their treatment of Matt skiba was not cool
