A year ago yesterday (9 November 2023), Green Day played at the Marquis pub in London. More photos: 20 years ago (9 November 2004), Green Day played the US Cellular Arena in Milwaukee, WI on the American Idiot Tour. More photos: 27 years ago (9 November 1997), Green Day played The Boathouse in Norfolk, VA on the Nimrod Tour. 29 years ago (9 November 1995), Green Day played the Broome County Veterans Memorial Arena in Binghamton, NY on the Insomniac Tour. 33 years ago (9 November 1991), Green Day played KOB in Berlin, Germany. There were only about 50 people there. More photos: 35 years ago (9 November 1989), Green Day played at 924 Gilman Street. ---------------------------------------- On this day last year (10 November 2023), Green Day didn't play the Electric Ballroom, so I made this to commemorate the momentous occasion. 7 years ago (10 November 2017), Green Day played in Buenos Aires, Argentina on the Revolution Radio Tour. More photos: 15 years ago (10 November 2009), the 21st Century Breakdown music video was released. I always say the 21 Guns video is my favourite, but this one is bloody good too. There aren't any bad videos from that era. Behind the scenes photos: They also played in Milan that day. More photos: 19 years ago (10 November 2005), Green Day were interviewed and played three songs on MTV Total Request Live. More photos: 24 years ago (10 November 2000), Green Day played Minority on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. More photos: 27 years ago (10 November 1997), Green Day played the 9:30 Club in Washington D.C. on the Nimrod Tour. "An amazing show! It was a sold-out crowd at the 9:30 Club in Washington, DC. Superdrag had done their set and now everyone was ready for Green Day! Their roadies were setting up the equipment and the Ramones were playing over the PA. After a while, Whip It by Devo was blasted over the PA speakers and everyone knew that signaled something. Before you knew it, the boys from Green Day trotted up on stage and the crowd went crazy. They opened up with Going to Pasalacqua. Crazy things were going on the whole show. At one point, Bille Joe walked out with an Elmo doll in his pants. He whipped Elmo out and had him clapping along to the song. Then he brought a member out of the crowd to play along to the cover tune, Knowledge. After the guy played along, he commenced in the traditional stage dive. When I Come Around was the second to last song. After they played that, Green Day absolutely destroyed their set. BJ was playing weird shit on the guitar, Tre was trashing his drum set big time (there were sparks flying when he was hitting the cymbals against each other!) and Mike was spraying water and beer on the crowd. Well, there it was, a trashed set, absolute chaos onstage. Then, the roadie took one of the mics and just placed it towards the middle of the stage. Then, BJ came out and played Good Riddance (Time of Your Life). The crowed loved it. Billie didn't play it acoustic though, he just played it on his regular old guitar. It ended what was possibly the best live act that I have ever seen. If you get a chance to catch Green Day live, you won't regret it!" — fan experience 29 years ago (10 November 1995), Green Day played the State University of New York in Albany, NY on the Insomniac Tour. 33 years ago (10 November 1991), Green Day played the Gryfinski Dom Kultury in Gryfino, Poland. This was their first European show outside of Germany. Another photo and a poster:

When Saviors was announced, some feared that an album release in january might not count towards consideration for the following year's grammy awards. As it turns out, it does. So happy for them.

Was very glad to see this news on Friday! The bright spot this week needed....

Today I got some things I found in my GD picture archive I scanned years ago and just put it away for myself: Some Japanese promo stickers, some album promo stickers, postcards and a few patches I rarely see on ebay. There are some scans of album ads and some pages of songbooks! I also added some scans of vinyl bootlegs. To make it easier on everyone I included the file list for those here: Just added: Rennbahn Express (1995/10) Rennbahn Express (1996/02) Bravo (August or September 1997) Q (Fall 2001) Guitar Breakers (2004/11) Unknown Magazine (1995) [Mad Life Crisis] Another Unknown Magazine (1995) [''Unpretty''] Still another unknown magazine (1994) [Leeds] Still more to come as I promised and there are quite a few more Japanese mags featuring GD coming next week, so stay tuned if you're interested

So proud of them, they really deserve it! Being just nominated (three times!!!) is a huge milestone for a band that's been together for 35 years!

CBS will air the 2025 Grammys live coast-to-coast on Sunday, February 2, 2025 from Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. The ceremony will stream on Paramount+. Performers and presenters will be revealed in the coming months.

Nah, that would be too much of a hassle for me since I have too many time consuming hobbies, but I have seen a lot of stuff in your collection I don't have - I'm very jealous

Do you have an Instagram for your collection? This is mine if you're interested https://www.instagram.com/greendaycollection?igsh=MXRvemxhajk2N2F1Nw==

Will Billie Joe write directly about Trump in the near future? Probably not. However, I hope he gets inspired to write about what is happening to America. He and the band have always been one of the loudest voices in against America turning into a fascist theocracy, which is now closer than ever. Many people that hoped Trump would lose are feeling dejected and have lost their faith in humanity, and in America as a country. Many people are terrified of what will happen once he takes office. My hope is that the band takes this opportunity to make music that inspires and rallies everyone to get mad and fight back, and we've absolutely got to fight back.

None of that matters. It really depends on a variety of factors like streaming, units moved, billboard chart positions, airplay and generally positive reviews across the album. People in the academy vote based on their perception. Green Day probably helped their case with the tour especially with being the highest grossing tour of September. I think all the beliefs of not qualifying during a certain release window is just stuff fans started to spew when GD couldn’t get a nom.

On this day 15 years ago (8 November 2009), Green Day played the Hallenstadion in Zurich, Switzerland on the 21st Century Breakdown Tour. More photos: 19 years ago (8 November 2005), Green Day played American Idiot on Friday Night with Jonathan Ross in London, England. More photos: 20 years ago (8 November 2004), Green Day played the UIC Pavilion in Chicago, IL on the American Idiot Tour. 23 years ago (8 November 2001), Green Day played four songs on The Chris Isaak Show in Vancouver, Canada. It aired on 13 November. More photos: 26 years ago (8 November 1998), Green Day played a second night at Via Funchal in São Paulo, Brazil on the Nimrod Tour. 27 years ago (8 November 1997), Green Day played the Tremont Music Hall in Charlotte, NC on the Nimrod Tour. “Great show! I remember it being the most packed I have ever seen Tremont Music Hall. You could hardly move, but the show was amazing!” — Jarrod Landahl Another photo and the ticket: 29 years ago (8 November 1995), Green Day played 86 on the Late Show With David Letterman. More photos: 33 years ago (8 November 1991), Green Day played UJZ Korn in Hannover, Germany. It really suited him. Stripes are good.

Apparently Cuatro was nominated for Best Music Film in 2014 but other than that yes. Great news!

Finally, that's awesome! And kind of surreal, considering the amount of shit that has infiltrated the charts in the last ten years. Is this their first nomination since American Idiot: The Original Broadway Cast Recording? Time surely flies fast..

Billie comes in 36 minutes into the broadcast

Billie announced the Album and Record of the year nominees on the stream.

Saviors is up for Best Rock Album Grammy for 2025!

Guys! Green Day is nominated for best Rock Grammy for 2025! The Grammys are currently announcing 2025 nominees and Haley Williams just announced best Rock Nominees. Saviors is up for the Grammy!! Congrats boys!!! AHHHH Billie is on the nomination broadcast!!! He announced record and album of the year! I am losing my shit at work!!! I didn't know he was appearing, so it was a total surprise! Sadly, Green Day did not make the cut for these categories

On this day last year (7 November 2023), Green Day played the Magazzini Generali in Milan, Italy on the Saviors Tour. More photos: 7 years ago (7 November 2017), Green Day played the Anfiteatro do Beira Rio in Porto Alegre, Brazil on the Revolution Radio Tour. More photos: 8 years ago (7 November 2016), the Still Breathing music video was released. This is one of Green Day's best videos. I love all the different storylines and how they're all connected despite being completely different, which was what Billie said he wanted to achieve with the song. And of course it's lovely to see the ending where Billie returns to the practice space and Mike and Tre are there waiting for him. 12 years ago (7 November 2012), the Stray Heart music video was released. That's one of my favourite songs but I admit I don't care about the video because the band aren't in it. 26 years ago (7 November 1998), Green Day played Via Funchal in São Paulo, Brazil on the Nimrod Tour. They were also interviewed there. More photos: 27 years ago (7 November 1997), Green Day played The Roxy in Atlanta, GA on the Nimrod Tour. 32 years ago (7 November 1992), Green Day played at 924 Gilman Street. 33 years ago (7 November 1991), Green Day played Kulturstation in Munich, Germany. 35 years ago (7 November 1989), Green Day played Komotion in San Francisco, CA.
