solongfromthestars Posted Thursday at 06:58 PM Author Share Posted Thursday at 06:58 PM 15 years ago yesterday (18 December 2009), Green Day played the Vector Arena in Auckland, New Zealand on the 21st Century Breakdown Tour. More photos: Spoiler 33 years ago (18 December 1991), Green Day played the Rumble Club in Tunbridge Wells, England. "There were 2 shows at The Rumble Club in Tunbridge Wells, the first was on 18th December 1991 (99% sure on that date) as well as Christmas Eve. The first show had (my band) Angus Bagpipe, Pseudo Hippies and Couch Potatoes. I remember they wore dresses and BJ told everyone to sit down cross-legged and he slithered around through the crowd. I was told that Tre was found asleep on a pool table the following morning!" — Nick Wilkinson -------------------------------- On this day 6 years ago (19 December 2018), The Coverups played the Ivy Room in Albany, CA. More photos: Spoiler 15 years ago (19 December 2009), Green Day played a second night in Auckland, New Zealand on the 21st Century Breakdown Tour. It was their last show of 2009. They played Homecoming, which was a huge deal back then. 32 years ago (19 December 1992), Green Day played the Berkeley Square nightclub in... BERKELEY! Shocking stuff. If anyone knows who took these photos, please tell me and I'll add credit More photos: Spoiler 33 years ago (19 December 1991), Green Day played the Rails in London, England. Setlist.fm says they played Sheffield that day, but doesn't have any record of them playing the Rails, so I think GDA must be right given that there are people who remember the Rails gig? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solongfromthestars Posted 18 hours ago Author Share Posted 18 hours ago On this day 33 years ago (20 December 1991), Green Day played the New Adelphi Club in Hull, England. "Nothing could've been more spit-and-sawdust than the band's gig in Hull's Adelphi, which saw Tre taking over van-driver responsibilities en route and driving at 90mph down Lincolnshire A-roads to reach the gig in the nick of time!" — Kerrang I can't believe Green Day actually played Hull. I'm going to keep saying this about these early English gigs. Stoke-on-Trent might be the winner of obscure English places though? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That tour of '91, the first time I saw GD, unforgettable. At the Den, Wigan December 21st. Imho the most obscure. You never forget the first time. Just like your first kiss. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
