Popular Post stories and songs Posted November 8 Popular Post Share Posted November 8 “People know where Green Day stands,” says Armstrong. “It's in our songs. It's the way that we've talked about things ever since the beginning. Even before that, we were writing about politics. You know, we have a firm stance of anti-racism [and] anti-homophobia. I'm a middle aged man now. We brought out [nonprofit group] HeadCount, and it was by far the biggest turnout for people registering to vote that they've ever had on a tour. For Taylor Swift and Billie Eilish to come out and say something, I'd rather be an ally of that than to be trying to jump on that. But I agree with them.” I wasn’t totally sure why Billie wasn’t directly addressing politics as much at shows anymore or why the band didn’t directly address the lead up to the election, but I really love and appreciate the logic of just getting fans registered to vote and supporting the younger artists who (tried) to mobilize their fanbases. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say everyone has a chance except The Black Crowes and maybe the Rolling Stones 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DookieLukie Posted November 8 Share Posted November 8 Would be great to see them win it. Saviors is excellent and especially fresh for a band that’s been around so long. Wow 3 nominations! American Dream for best rock performance and Dilemma for best rock song! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dingle Posted November 14 Share Posted November 14 Copied comments the band made within aa general article I posted updating the Download festival in case you missed it:- Green Day will be hoping the festival gives fans the chance to check out some new music, as they previously told of their despair at people relying on TikTok algorithms to be introduced to other artists. Mike Dirnt told The Sun newspaper: “Social media is great for kids but if you’re finding your music via algorithms then that’s just lazy. “I like to organically find new things. All I can say is just clear your search history to find new [stuff].” Billie Joe Armstrong added: “I was told that 'Brain Stew' was a sudden popular thing on TikTok with a lot of hip-hop kids dancing to it. And that’s cool. “But I don’t have the patience to use it. It’s just like, eurgh. It’s cool for other people but we’re old- school man.” And the trio worry such algorithms are fuelling the rise of misinformation online. Billie Joe said: "With all the algorithms that people live on, there’s so much false information, and there’s people diagnosing themselves with Asperger’s off TikTok. That’s absurd to me." 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What an amazing article. Particularly like the parent having seen the band in '90's is taking his kids to see GD today and loving them. Again yet another new generation getting into GD, spanning five decades. Also, what a very interesting viewpoint describing Saviors as part of a trilogy, along with Dookie and AI. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly was presented that way with the timing of the release and the packaging of the tour. The article really highlights how hard this band and everyone around them works to make these massive tours happen. Also, “Immediate Sleepless” was clearly what was heard by a journalist that never listened to Dookie😂 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope if they take anything away from this tour, it is that fans love Homecoming too, and that they start alternating between JoS and Homecoming in the future non-album shows.

Even if they were only considering solo shows, then it would have been Lyon on June 5th 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
