When you're behind a car with an Oakland Raiders sticker and it reminds you of Billie.

Billie's eyes really stand out in these two photos from the Wembley Stadium Show And for the first time in all the years since this show I've noticed his trousers/pants were rolled up at the bottom!

Me too! But kinda differently. I was like “ew, he’s so cute!” Gawd he’s so cute it upsets my tummy haha. These are such cutie pics it makes me 🤮 haha.

When you see one of these randomly parked in the middle of nowhere and immediately think of Green Day because they use these trucks when they're in the UK touring

I'll allow it.

I hope you’ll get to go!

He made sooooo much money playing trombone in Green Day that he could retire to the Bahamas

Man, do I miss the MTV of the 90s & early 2000s...

Really? I think that's a particularly distinct feature of his (or maybe I've just studied his face for way too long ). So much so that I included it in my drawing *cough* shameless plug *cough*. He's got one under his right eye as well that they airbrushed out (not in the drawing because of lighting). I guess you get a limit of one single freckle on magazine photoshops.

Wow! I remember Dogs on Ice! I have them on a cassette somewhere. I loved "Malajusted ".

Oh yeah, right? I was too focused on his perfect lips I guess! Never noticed it before but i guess it is there...

Love Kevin so so so so so so so much! This is the best Green Day lineup ever. P.S. I love Kevin.

@Slave To The Network Thanks so much for re-uploading Hitchin' A Ride in high quality!! 👏👏

From Tre's IG story

My friend opened for Green Day at the brass mug, his band was called "Dogs on Ice". I recently heard how he opened for them so I called him, he said once they finished, he later heard them play 2,000 Light Years Away. "...After that, they played the Brass Mug and there were way too many people there for the Mug." "...The place was packed beyond belief. That night, the crowd helped the Brass Mug with a little remodeling by tearing down a good portion of the ceiling tiles." "1993: Green Day plays the Brass Mug in Tampa. Tampa singer Joe Popp and his punky trio opens the show. The tiny bar, which normally books local bands, is packed with fans standing on pool tables." tomorrowbandfla: "There were so many people there that we pushed Billie Joe and Mikes cabinets flat against the back wall. They basically played on either side of the drum kit with the crowd 6 inches from them packed like sardines - front to back of the entire bar." Kim Dicce: "The drop ceiling was completely demolished from the pit. And of course Carl the owner ... at that time almost had a heart attack when he saw it. But he was so greedy we were sold out and these desperate parents were coming that afternoon trying to buy tickets and he’s like 'Sell more tickets sell more tickets'. We are so lucky that nobody died that night! ... But yes Green Day were pretty much just getting big at that time. So anything after that was kind of a different experience." Joe Popp: "Life can be full of coincidences. Circa 1993 I was playing in a punk trio called Dogs On Ice in Tampa, Florida. We had some minor local success and even signed to a small label out of San Francisco run by Jello Biafra's graphic artist [Winston Smith]. We were doing as good as any local band could hope to do, but thought that maybe we would get a big break after learning we were going to open for our punk idols - Green Day. The show was scheduled at a scrappy hole in the wall called The Brass Mug - sort of the CBGB's of Tampa. I remember the evening vividly. Green Day had not been signed by Reprise yet, but were doing great on Lookout Records. As we pulled into the club in our oxidized blue Ford Econoline, a rougher, more road worn van pulled into a space close to ours. It was them - yes, Green Day, all the way from the notorious punk rock mecca - 924 Gilman Street. The band we listened to constantly and read so much about in the pages of our bible, the 'zine Maximum Rocknroll. We greeted them, and they seemed bigger than life. Tre Cool asked if any 5-0's were rolling because he had to "take care of some business", and Mike Dirnt asked our bass player for a string, which he provided. The Mug was filled beyond legal capacity that night - at least 400 in a place that regularly drew 40. We took the stage with anticipation and rocked a pretty good set to the enthusiastic crowd. We felt good. Then Green Day took the stage. They transformed the seedy club into a whirling vortex of energy. It didn't matter that the sound was crap or the ceiling was low. They played with such tightness and fervor that I knew great things would come to them. My opinion of my band admittedly dropped drastically when I witnessed a new musical paradigm first hand. Weeks later their Dookie album was released on Reprise. Dookie sold millions of records and proved to be the record that lead them to stardom. My band went the way of most: we broke up."

Been doing my Green Day nerd thing today, researching bands that contain any former or current Green Day related folk. When I got to Ronnie Blake, it looks like he was working on a solo album in 2016 and 2017, but that's all I can find! There doesn't seem to be anything else about him on the internet, lol. Have you guys heard anything he's done outside the ole Green Day Machine, with his non-existent Bouncing Off the Singular Wall Solo?

After Rock am See in 2012 someone met Billie in the shop at a truck stop buying ice cream

Me too! Somehow, men's jackets and t-shirts mostly seem to look nicer than women's imho. Maybe I just have a weird fashion sense but most women's clothes look plain boring to me so I sometimes wear men's clothes if they don't immediately make me look like a sack of potatoes. Concerning the shopping, I hope they didn't go grocery shopping because ever since those deep dish pizza and McDonald's stories from Billie, my brain brings up the sharting jokes again whenever I think of him and certain foods.

There will also be additional broadcast performances from across the world including: Andrea Bocelli from Tuscany, BTS from Seoul, Green Day from Los Angeles So it looks like Green Day is just for the tv broadcast

Yeah it's weird because it's not like they're like over-the-top dreams or anything. It's just like "oh cool, I had a conversation with Billie" or "wow, they played some crazy rare songs at this 100-person venue in Columbus" or something and then I wake up and I'm like "well fuck." I guess another variable is that I rarely have/remember dreams so when it happens it's extra strange for me.

I haven’t been sleeping well the past couple of weeks but last night I slept like a baby and had a Green Day concert dream. I have those every now and then and it feels so realistic — usually them playing a very small venue — and it’s such a disappointment when I wake up and it’s not real.

The same photographer had these photos from the Brixton Academy Show in August 2013 as well Website: https://www.richardisaac.co.uk/green-day-brixton/

The fourth photo, I loved his smile at this moment 😄

Just came upon this loveliness... https://imgur.com/Ryxv3ab

Talking about Trilogy era pics in the photo thread reminded me of this photoshoot: It might be a sacrilege but I just love their goofy faces in this one And I wonder why this one never made the front of one of those fanmade Green Day Valentine's Day cards that used to be shared on instagram

I love this photo 💚

Some nice photos from the 99 Revolutions Tour (don't know which show)
