Why would you be there for one day? Ride the Staten Island Ferry, it's free and has some of the best views. It stops right in front of the Statue of Liberty and it isn't far from Tribeca.

But it is a movie premiere at the closing Saturday night of the Tribeca film festival. I plan to go casual, but nice casual. I am wearing a skirt, nice shirt, boots. What, no 4" wedges? I was looking forward to seeing that picture of you towering over Billie... We are going nice casual too, Me with nice jeans or black pants, cute heels, nice blouse or top; husband will wear nice button down shirt, sport jacket, no tie.

You've spent all that money on airfare to come to a city that has so much to offer for one day? #doesntmakesense #notcommonsenseatall I know - I was joking on the common sense part! I bought a flight to Kentucky last summer to see Green Day but obviously it got cancelled, so rather than lose the money I changed it to San Francisco for June this year with the hope that if Green Day announced anything I could change it again and see a show. My flight runs out in June, and because I did spend a lot of money on it I kinda wanted it to go towards something Green Day-ish related, so this seemed like the best use I could find for my flight. Considering I paid for the flight last year, it's not actually costing me that much money. I'm only going for one night because I don't really have the time to go to New York right now, and I had to pick a flight within the price of my last one so it was either one night or a week.

No, I have done some stupid things for Green Day in my life, but even I do not think it is common sense to go all the way to America for one night to watch Billie Joe play about six songs I'm sure I'll be back soon anyway green day tour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenXIdiot Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 OK so this is exciting, Green Day's publicist released an official confirmation of the new album! Way to go with your blabbing, Billie! So maybe this ups our chances of hearing a new demo on Saturday from Billie? I know that the performance is about Geezer, but he gets so excited, hence the spillage of "secrets" to the fan on Sunday. So maybe he'll get so excited he'll pull out a new song... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty Rotten Bastard Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 If he is going to play 6-8 songs, I can't imagine that there are 6-8 songs from Geezer that are all worth playing, especially after we have just watched the film. Obviously he'll play whatever the main ones are, but I can't imagine him doing 8 songs from the film. idk tho but I'm excited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XxXxXxXxX Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 I would just like to say... Flying into NYC for the first time in my life tomorrow and I am so fucking excited! Ill be in around 3 (Depending on delays) and I don't leave until Sunday night around 10:30. Any suggestions for me in regards to NYC activities I absolutely can not leave without doing? I've already noted the staten island ferry and world trade center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Empire State building is really cool, too, if you can still go up it. Also, we love the MOMA if you are into modern art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As gene said moma is great, but I personally prefer the top of the rock over the empire state building. If you like more historical than art, the met and the museum of natural history are great. If you are looking more casual just walking around the village is great. Walking around central park is cool too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoMa is expensive unless you go for free on Friday night. The Metropolitan Museum of Art is a SUGGESTED DONATION so you can give $1 to enter. You could also walk across the Brooklyn Bridge... free, beautiful on a nice day. Also, don't eat near Times Square. It's all over priced tourist stuff. Go down by Union Square/St. Marks for better food at cheaper prices! 8 minutes ago, XxXxXxXxX said: Where would the red carpet event take place? And when? There is a permanent red carpet sitting outside the Regal Cinemas in Battery Park with the Tribeca background. I feel like this is where a majority of the appearances take place, although this is not next to where Geezer is being screened.... so who knows.
