I think one of my favourite things about Green Day was how “accessible” they were. I genuinely always felt they were a band with a special connection with their fans. This whole ordeal is just so disappointing.

The irony also isn't lost on me that their lead single from this album is about how nobody can afford the "American Dream" anymore.

Seriously fuck this tour and fuck Hella Mega. Prices are ridiculous and pit is already sold out. I DON'T WANT 3 BIG BANDS TOGETHER I JUST WANT GREEN DAY AND A FIRST ACT

In between refreshes I decided to do my Duolingo for the day. I think I should take this as a hint.

Yeah, it’s a little song called “Homecoming” off the 2004 album American Idiot. Not sure if you’ve heard of it.

I think he may always write about addiction, perhaps not regularly, but it’s something he has to deal with. I agree that he looks happy and healthy right now, long may that continue.

I mean, he was very open about the fact that he was drinking again during the FOAM era. In interviews he was basically like “I’m not sober anymore but I’m fine, let the good times roll!” He was also very drunk at a number of side project shows. I actually took a break from them during that time because it just seemed like things weren’t…great. But I’ve noticed in recent months that he appears to be sticking to non-alcoholic stuff and that makes me really happy. I know, he’s a grown man and I don’t know him and it’s his business, but I just really enjoy seeing him clear and sharp and healthy, and he seems like all those things right now. TL;DR I’m not surprised he’s talking about struggling with addiction on this album due to the vibes surrounding FOAM, but I’m also not presently worried about it because he seems to be doing well.

So I struggled to get to the right page because Wrigley has their own site and I don't think I can do this. 400 for 2 tix to skip most of the lineup in seats that are okay at best. I'm really disappointed. It's been too long since I've seen them. I've skipped them the last 2 times they came to Chicago and I wanted to take my partner who has never seen them because it's a super fun show. I'm trying not to cave into fomo and just wait closer to the show to get them resell. If more pit or floor seats open on Friday I'll consider it but as much as I want to see them and as much as I have fomo seeing other folks get their Tix I can't swing it and I really shouldn't with my finances right now.

The names of the VIP packages fill me with rage. That's all.

Pains me but I might skip this tour or maybe just wait a few months for discounted resales. $100 without fees for nosebleeds a mile from the stage lol. I paid $120 for a spot in Hella Mega that is $230 now. Always want to see them because you never know when it will be the last tour, but this is too much, especially when the set list will likely be the same-ish. I’ve seen them at better venues, closer seats, and better shows for insanely less.

Fuck this tour. Fuck Ticketmaster. I'm ashamed at what I paid for a floor seat.

This is surreal. Back in May we got the devastating news that the new album wouldn't be released till '24. There was the prospect that '23 would be a barren year for GD fans. Now look, news songs, were getting spoilt rotten with all these live shows, with amazing sets and vintage performances from the band. Fingers crossed I'm off to London to see Green Day live again. Who would have believed this just a few months ago. I think I'm gonna go fuckin' crazy. Whether the album is gonna sell a lot of records or live up the quality of previous albums, one thing is deffo for sure. Green Day have always been, still are, and always will be the bestest live band to see and enjoy on this planet, nay in the universe. Looking at what we've had so far from the live shows, below is my fav' clip. Billie Joe is on fire. Every time I see him, he's looking younger. Must be something to do with the music. lol

And back on ignore you go.

I paid $75 for House of Blues in Cleveland. Like ... what am I even doing, nothing will top that ever.

If anyone wants to try their luck again tomorrow with the Live Nation presale the code is BACKSTAGE

Yall see the most expensive package? Private acoustic performance by smashing pumpkins lol if it were Green Day, I’d be willing to pay the price

I think its possible GD's album beating Blink's album if they are both nominated. We haven't heard the whole GD album yet so I wouldn't say 'no way its possible GDs album beating Blink's in the Grammys'.

It’s pretty messed up how I’m getting paid more than I ever have in my career… but I’m struggling to justify one show near me, when there was a time where we were going to at least 5 shows a tour all over NA and it was easy to swing. Life is weird, man. Can The Longshot just come back? They wouldn’t do us dirty like this…

Well my fellow west coasters…. It’s almost our turn to start crying…. 😭 (Breathes)

This is some next level shilling.

I have to disagree here. You can blame ticketmaster and corporate greed for the prices since ticketmaster is a monopoly they can do whatwver they want and I do not think it is lazy of the band it's gracious it gives these bands a chance to shine including the European leg groups who will get exposure by being with green day. I also thought the amount of time they played last time was just enough time

It's disgusting how expensive tickets are even for the upper deck. I'm old enough to remember pit tickets for Green Day shows were under $100 when it was just them and an opener. Ugh. Do we think there's any possibility of a club tour in the US before all of this? Or is that wishful thinking?

He heard our demands for more eyeliner

Trying for Pittsburgh pit tickets tomorrow. Already asking my parents to make good on that “free babysitting for life” promise, now that I’m giving them a grandkid. They aren’t surprised this is my first reason why ... though my dad continues to make jokes about how “old” the band is and how he can’t believe they’re still touring, when he’s 57.

The thing that annoys me is not releasing all of a particular sale's tickets all at one time. Release them all at 10am, not a quarter then, a quarter 90 mins later, etc. I'd rather not be refreshing on my computer all day.

Ik you should always be skeptical about these things but there are absolutely things here that are almost certainly true. Like all the selected lyrics and the lyrical themes mentioned, the fact that Fancy Sauce finishes with a long instrumental section. It's not like whoever wrote this just didn't realise that Billie was singing during that instrumental The article seems to describe the instrumentals and content of the song pretty well. It's not just vague "this sounds like old Green Day" or "this is the new JOS" type shit

Wasn't Outlaws described as the sequel to Christie Road? I just went digging through my old magazines and was reading the stuff leading up to FOAM and man did Kerrang reference Junkies On A High a lot.

Absolutely not reading these. Every single time I've read crap like this I get unrealistic expectations of the songs... like when we got descriptions of a bunch of tracks from 21stCB, I then went into the album with expectations. Or what was it about Ashley on Dos.... something like the song is so fast it's surprising fingers weren't broken playing or recording it? And then Bang Bang reminding the reviewer of Kerplunk. Fucking bullshit.

Slightly concerning how many references there appear to be to addiction. I like a lot of the lyrics they highlighted, especially on Bobby Sox

Wow this is amazing . I think this deserves its own Thread

Greedy old fucks

Calling all saviors pit Tix secured. How long can I go without food? Fuck you, groceries.

Me, purchasing a ticket to this price-gouging shit show.

PEOPLE GO TO CONCERTS ALONE ASSHOLES

When did I get so bad at buying tickets?? We used to do so well!

#soon - late February!

*Green Day suddenly announces club show in Oslo*

Got tickets to Paris, Manchester, Glasgow and London. I'm officially broke. 😄😅

Im exremely happy because I have been able to buy 4 Tickets for the golden circle in Berlin 🙂 Usually I never succeed with Ticketmaster that site is just aweful. But this time I was redirected right away at 09:30 GMT and everything went smooth. Im so glad I did it because it will be my first Green Day concert after beeing a fan for 30 years. Unfortunatelly I missed them so many times. ...BUT NOT THIS TIME...

My sister got us tickets for Wembley (at the front) Pricey but only concerts we go to are Green Day once every couple years and we've been to some bargain ones in the past so it's not that bad. Last time seeing them there in 2010 was amazing so can't wait! Also there's a brick somewhere on "Wembley Way" that commemorates that show and GDC that a lot of us clubbed together to buy back in the day (at the time you could pay to have a brick there inscribed with a message). No idea where it is but nice to know it's there.

Why are you such a disrespectful little shit?

Is it a polka dit shirt or scarf? I got 21CBD vibes from this! ❤️❤️❤️

"little song"

Omggg eye liner AND polka dot shirt? Pinch me 🤣
