I don’t expect word on anything new from Green Day for at least 18 months but Billie did speak about trying to get Pinheaded Gunpowder together for some shows I think.

My personal highlights were the nights when I stayed up to watch live-streamed shows with everyone, like the Fire Aid show. Those days were fun . Wow, two days until 2026......

Hugging Billie Joe in Vienna

I think Billie will do something with a side project between albums

For me, it was definitely seeing them at Riot Fest. I camped out at the stage since 11:15 am, but the barrier was already claimed by Green Day fans (The festival opened at 11)! I became super dehydrated to the point of my cheeks sinking into my face. I moshed until I felt like I had to puke. It was the most glorious time I’ve ever had at a Green Day show. It was also great to be there on my own and not have to worry about anyone and if they were having a good time. 100% would do it again. I’d do it tomorrow.

Seeing them live at Download festival during the Summer. Such an amazing atmosphere and the crazy timing of the rain starting on cue during WMUWSE.

Would love some shows in Europe!🥰

I would absolutely love something like 21st Century Breakdown again just one more time in their career. The incredible production, the wide variety of instruments and arrangements, Billie Joe's vocal range, etc etc etc. An unbelievable record start to finish. How did that come to be? The band feeling adventurous after American Idiot? Warner/Reprise asking them for an epic follow up to American Idiot? Butch Vig's touch?

Lots of fangirl moments in their roundup… https://www.instagram.com/reel/DS7yOz6EYlH/?igsh=dTJ0bDl3a2JpdnNu

Check out the GDA roundup of this year's highlights! https://www.greendayauthority.com/news/6272/ What was YOUR personal highlight? Mine was hearing Suzie Chapstick live, but the bits of Stay the Night and Redundant acoustic that we got in Vienna were close seconds.

i actually got into them through my best friend and some other people. his favourite band has been green day for a long time, so i asked a few friends online for some suggestions. the first three green day songs i ever listened to were dilemma, east jesus nowhere, and longview.

My bet would be that the next Green Day album will come out on 2028 or later. That gives them at least 1.5 full year off from touring. On the meanwhile, I do expect to see some shows and/or new albums from some of Billie's side projects. I'd be surprised if they don't do at least a couple of PHGP shows next year, even if it's just in the bay area, as they put out this new album right in the middle of the Saviors cycle, and haven't done a a single show for that.

I love Fancy Sauce. There’s something special to it….❤️ Father to a Son was a bit disappointing for me. It’s missing something to make it really great but I can’t say what it is.😅

I'm listening to Fancy Sauce. This song has really grown on me. What a good song. Btw I got bored with Father to a Son. Once great, but now I've kind of lost interest.

At this point, my opinion on Saviors is more or less the same as my opinion on RevRad. A good album but too derivative of what they've done before. It has stronger production & lyricism (at least for the more political tracks) than RevRad but I think RevRad probably has the better songwriting overall and isn't as derivative. I'd say it'll still probably be a couple years before we hear anything about the next album. We might get a couple standalone songs in the meantime like Pollyanna but idk. I hope the next album isn't anything like the Deluxe tracks of Saviors which I felt were particularly weak compared to the standard album tracks. I dislike FOAM but I do hope that the band steps out of their comfort zone a little bit more for the next album. They don't need to change producers, I think we'd all be happy to have Rob stay but they need to change things up a bit.

this thread is really old but i feel like saying something about bang bang, my friend absolutely hates this song. he made fun of me for listening to it once, but whatever, i understand why some people might not like this song... though i remember seeing green day perform this song for the music awards in 2016. it was the first time i ever had heard the song. and when they did the "no trump, no kkk..." chant, it genuinely stuck to me for a while. that chant alone sort of brought some kind of immediate meaning to the song. i cant decipher lyrics well, so it really felt amazing how something so simple can reach out to me like that. genuinely the one of most relevant parts of a song i've ever heard, and that alone made me love the song so much. i love bang bang.

When you hear Good Riddance playing from your boss' office and have to resist running in there. Cause, ya know, I haven't heard it enough times.

i forgot i had this. i was gonna put this here on christmas but i forgot... anyways, christmas billie

its not a lot, but the day i finally got into green day was this year, 8th of march. actually, maybe that is a lot. im a newbie, and i missed the one time they came to australia this decade.

seeing the band live on my birthday, 3rd of March in Sydney! Amazing show!!

Seeing the live definitely, it was so surreal seeing so many people shouting out the lyrics and just as crazy as me all in one place, and not to mention the performance was so awesome And them performing missing you was just chef's kiss

I had two highlights: seeing my beloved band from the front row in Vienna (and hearing Forever Now at that occasion) and spending hours with @Cris. at a beautifully situated cafe in Luxembourg, talking about Green Day and the world…

I have been wondering about this since 2004, but just never enough to google it or ask 😅 So thanks a lot for sharing it

Or even a newly named side project.

Wouldn't a new Foxboro Hot Tubs album be great? (Even greater than a new Longshot album) That would be a great surprise.

It's a good thought, and although the band deserve a rest, they soon get restless. However, with other things being discussed, the movie, and a hint of a possible live album for 2026, I'm not sure. I've a feeling that the next studio album release could coincide with 21st Century Breakdown's 20th anniversary in 2029?

The Flaming Olive Branch - November 19th, 2027 (haha) Poison in Poseidon's Coffee Mad Season Creepy Crawlees of Habit Mike's A Jerk We're Going Home and no, I'm not going to flood the forum with tracklists but trying to get us back on topic so you guys don't get warnings about the above conversation. I have a lizard in my kitchen.

Yes, absolutely!🥰😍 I love this! And I miss them…🥲

I guess that IS a lot. How did you get into them?

Just got a dookie t shirt for xmas (thanks mom) Gonna try and get a shirt for every album!

2026 will probably be a full year off for them (well deserved) billie will most likely play some music here and there like always, otherwise he will get too bored but i think it wont be a long time until we hear sth new from green day, they seemed to really enjoy the latest album era and the shows, and they get older, the time will come when they simply wont be able to do excessive touring etc personally for me saviors was the best lp since the trilogy, i hope they keep pushing their creativity boundaries it will be interesting to see how the next tour will look like will they finally dodge the festivals and play stadium shows here in europe ? (never did in germany for example) or will they do sth like metallica (one city, 2 different sets) ? or back to arena shows but in more cities ?

I wouldn't expect a new album until 2027 at the earliest. Like others have said, I would think at most some one off singles and maybe a live album from the Saviors tour. Would love Billie to get into a side project again. The Longshot would be incredible to take back out and revisit.

Nah 3-4 year gap is still plenty of time

i would be shocked if the release schedule has a new album in it right now/before 2027 at the earliest

Welcome! It’s not been released yet, we are all waiting to hear.

Same here. I'd love to see something with that level of ambition again.

Could really be an age thing… Interesting! I love this album. Also because it’s different. ❤️

Finally got an American Idiot t-shirt at hot topic. \o/

Welcome to the Fancy Sauce fan club! 😂 It's been my favorite from the album since day one, and I am no where near to getting tired of it. Father to a Son is probably my least favorite from the album.

What a fun time it was when they started teasing 1972 in December 2021. I wonder if they'll ever tell the story why they changed 1972 to Saviors

i would love a new fbht album... and a new fbht gig i dont think theyve done those a good while

I could maybe see a single or two pop up from now through 2027, but I don't anticipate an album release until 2028 at the earliest. My thought is that as the guys get older, we will see longer and longer periods between releases.

It's been extensively talked about over here

My bet is they will take an extended rest in 2026 but is not like they gonna be much silent like they did after American Idiot. The show in the iheart radio is an indication they could make another hella mega-like tour. But that's just me.

So, now that we're going into 2026, what are the chances we hear news of the guys in the studio some time next summer or fall, with a single coming some time in late 2027, and an album in 2028?

The early version of American Idiot album didn't include She's A Rebel and Letterbomb is named as Clusterbomb. There's a photo of that early version online and somewhere in my computer, if I find it later, I will post it. It's more like the version of the album which is forwarded to the record label for approval. ***On the other hand, may anyone post the scan of the AI 20th booklet where Rob Cavallo talks about C&V ??
