luketrebilliemike Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 I got a ticket to the garage! Very easy location for me to get the train back home after too! I don’t think Green day own anyone more promotion, the tours are selling well, album did well for a rock album and hardly need the money. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Hermione Posted February 22 Popular Post Share Posted February 22 Damn I can't go but this is cool! The Garage is where FBHT played, the shows will be awesome. 2 hours ago, legendary said: Yeah, that' s all the fans want!!!!!

Billie can do what he wants in his spare time. Green Day are touring later this year. This show isn't instead of a Green Day event, it's instead of nothing. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't instead of a Green Day event just because the poor promotion that the band have. They seems don't care about It btw. That's really weird. I never saw something like this before. A band release a new album, promote just a week and then nothing happens after. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, but Green Day's promotion is a separate issue. This is just Billie doing something for fun while they're already not doing GD stuff. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Day I’d consider it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Day I’d consider it. I wouldn't call a 7 hour flight "only" lol but seeing side bands is awesome. Seeing Billie perform up close in a small venue with the atmosphere that goes with it is amazing, more than makes up for whatever songs are and aren't played. 3 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seems don't care about It btw. That's really weird. I never saw something like this before. A band release a new album, promote just a week and then nothing happens after. Club shows aren’t something I’d categorize as album promotion to begin with, at least not large scale promo like tv show appearances or interviews. They’re just a chance for big fans to see them in an intimate setting — that’s not promoting anything to anyone outside the fanbase. I don’t disagree that more Saviors promo would make sense (there’s a lot of people talking about this in the album discussion thread), but they clearly don’t have any planned right now and so comparing it to Billie doing a Coverups show is just incongruous. Maybe they’ll do more promo in the lead up to the tour. Or maybe they won’t, because they’re happy with the promo they’ve already done and want to focus on putting on a great show this summer and not worry about that. Only they know what makes sense to put energy into from a promotional, financial, and personal standpoint. Maybe mentally and physically, big promo pushes just aren’t it for them. And that’s totally fine and understandable. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saviour Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 How long did this take to sell out? Instantly I imagine. I live a stones throw away from the Garage. Why do I always miss this stuff FFS? 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still feel there'll be at least one club show before the tour starts (like the Tulsa show before Hella Mega) 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
