Both shows are 21+ shows I checked the SXSW and the Rachel Ray site and you need an ID for both events I guess because both venues will be serving alcohol but I mean couldn't they just mark under 21's so they don't get served? It just doesn't feel very inclusive

Stubbs is NOT a 21+ event

You do need id to show that you are who your rsvp says you are

Stubbs is a resturant they dont do age limits...

What WhiteTim said. But in general I also think it's just difficult to find the type of venues that are suitable for Foxboro that are all ages. It's not them deciding the rules on age restrictions, it's the venue. If they want to play a small venue at a certain event or in a certain town then over 21 venues are often going to be what's available, especially at short notice which is usually the case for Foxboro shows. I think that the fact that they did play several all ages shows on their mini US tour, which they probably had to go out of their way to do, shows that they do like to play for all ages when they can. But yeah seems one of these shows isn't age restricted anyway, so :P

I RSVP'd and got an email back saying "The event is open to the public (over 21 years of age)" Would've been great to know that before. :(

Oh wow I just checked the email you are right

Damn I guess the new owners changed that then

The previous owner John was against age restricted shows would not allow them

Just watching the videos from Australia, it seems Billie has gotten his shot together with his voice. It sounds VERY good as compared to it sounding ok last year.

The first time I saw Green Day I wasn't a massive fan like now and they played Scattered and Christie Road acoustic, at the time I didn't know either of these songs and I'm dissapointed.

And also the main character in 1984. Not that that's got anything to do with Green Day :lol:

Are they going to do another album like International Superhits soon? Something with all the singles from American Idiot to Tre would be stellar.

Every time I listen to AI on vinyl, I'm shocked all over again at being reminded just how goddamn strong Holiday/BOBD are.

Looks like it was taken in the 90s, so probably someone who had an old non digital camera that didn't give you an accurate view of where the photo would be cut off. I have loads of old family photos with heads cut off and stuff because of rubbish cameras with inaccurate view finders. Or they just weren't very good at taking photos and accidentally aimed wrong. Either way the quality of their camera skills is no reflection on how big a Green Day fan they are :P

It was in 1998 when Green Day came to Brazil for the first time during the Nimrod tour.
How someone that has the goal of taking the pic of the lead singer and guitarist of a band don't pays attention for his head go out in the picture?? Is not any head is The Head :P

Haha I know, but with some cameras it'd be that you'd look through the view finder and it'd look like the head was in the shot, but then when you got the photo developed it was cut off. Don't underestimate the crappiness of some cameras in 1998 :lol:

Billie Joe
Billy Joe

the melody on Good Riddance is so incredible. Not that that is news to many here. But I was just noticing it while listening to some instrumental covers.

The 2cellos version is incredible.
