Yeah, I'm sorry but I refuse going to Hella Mega. I'm lucky they're playing a festival in my country so I get to see them without FOB. I'm not too stoked about the rest of the line up, but hey, I'll rather see Sum 41 and some local bands for a similar price than what they have at HM. I was so excited by their performances last fall, so I'm thinking it'd be worth traveling to some other GD only shows, but what if the tour continues with Billie being as off key as recently - do I want to see that irl? These are hard decisions :lol:

The highlighted part has me seriously worried for the show I'm going to this summer. I love this band to death, but shit the singing has been a new low recently. It might be because of the songs. It's happened before with Still Breathing. It wasn't very good at first, but over time the song grew on his voice or the other way around and it became a great song live.

I just hope they're able to break in the songs live and give a kickass performance.

Same. I hope he has a good voice day when I’m seeing them. It seems like there’s no way to predict it - he sounded great in the fall, now hit a low in winter and who knows what he’ll sound like in summer. It could be like you say with Still Breathing and he just needs to warm up to the songs and it’ll get better again.

I think it's a problem with the song Oh Yeah. And even though I like the album version of the song very much, I kind of hope they won't play it on tour, it doesn't work live for me, sorry. Although BJ was struggling with Still Breathing in the beginning too, it never sounded that bad.

I would swap out Oh Yeah for almost anything on Side B

Maybe it's already been talked about before in here, sorry if it has, but do you guys think the spread of the coronavirus is going to impact this tour? Anyone having second thoughts about going to shows if it starts to spread to countries they are playing in?

Would I risk my health to see Green Day? Considering I once skipped an appointment to get results of an xray to see if my bone was broken to go to a show instead, I have to say yes.

Talking about Europe, I would say no. 
The tour here starts at the end of May and the "critical situation" about Coronavirus, at least in Italy, is now. 
From today to this Sunday school/uni are closed, even the theatre or music ones, restaurants, pubs and stuff close at 6 pm, events are postponed, many workplace/libraries are close too
I hope the situation will get better soon but I mean the end of May/June is still far away

I was very responsible on the RevRad tour when the physio thought I had a chipped bone in my foot - I sold my GA ticket & bought a seat.

I hate this silence by the band, the organizers in Asia. Japan has been announcing a few tidbits of info promoting the tour with the support acts but other than that there is no other information. Most of the cancelled/postponed shows in Singapore were announced at least a month before the performance to give the fans a chance to recover their money or reschedule their bookings. I am hoping GD would have done the same rather than announcing the cancellation just a couple of days before the show. There have been some concerts which have not been cancelled yet and are expected to go as is (just a couple of days before GD is scheduled to perform) with thermal scanners in place for temperature checks. The promoter of the show in Singapore hasn't had any cancellations and is holding a concert this weekend.

I’m guessing the band are prepared to go ahead as long as the host countries and the venues allow it. They will only cancel if they’re told to or have no choice.

That's what I am hoping is the case. The cancellation doesn't affect me much, financially cos I need to be in Singapore any way and can also go to Japan but it's not the same case for people worldwide. Just some clarity would be nice. I have waited for this moment for the last 12 years.

I would consider myself lucky if a concert was cancelled/posteponed a month before
All the theatre show + concert here have been cancelled/postponed yesterday and they were supposed to be this week 😑

I'm wondering what the logistics are for the band travelling between the Asian countries right now with some of the travel restrictions that are in place and those imposing quarantines on people arriving from certain destinations.  I think at the moment things can change rapidly.

Yeah which is why Green Day may not know what’s happening until right before they’re about to board a plane.

The CDC has already advised against all but nonessential travel to South Korea so I feel at least that show must be going to be postponed or cancelled.

I wonder what precautions they’re taking because it would be an extra bummer if shows got cancelled because the entire tour got quarantined for two weeks.

Yes, my region is at number 1 for the number of infected but luckly my family and friends here are okay. And luckly my area isn't one of the red zone. But we have to be careful anyway


I don't know about logistics around the world but I read if you came back to France after have been in the North of Italy you have to stay in quarantine for 15 days.

Yep, I guess they should think about that before start the tour
