Insomniac186 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Thanks everyone! I wish he did have more time but I believe someone was waiting for him at Broken Guitars and he was in a bit of a hurry to get there. It was kind of him to let me (as well as my little buddy that was with me) have a moment of his time. He could have easily just shooed us off and said he was in a hurry to be somewhere but he actually stopped and listened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said "yes" and it should "hopefully be out in the fall". Photo of me with Billie Joe taken today is Here. For those that are curious, I had been at 1-2-3-4 Go! Records and ran into him just walking down the sidewalk headed toward Broken Guitars. I was not expecting it. I've wanted to meet him for over 20 years and there he was. He was in a hurry to meet someone but let me talk to him for a moment and let me take a picture, which he had no obligation to do. He's a great guy. Finally some gas to our hype train Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BucksCoEric Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I kinda figured itd be out around the fall. But thats awesome you got to meet him! My guess is we'll get some kind of news in the next two months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzz Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 1 hour ago, DookieLukie said: Summer tour is still a possibility. I doubt a full tour would start then. A fall release would probably see something like the American Idiot promo. A handful of shows (or festivals), sprinkled with promo concerts in places in NY and LA with some TV shows. Either way, fall is less than 6 months away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross_19 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Well that's awesome! So fall (autumn for me since I'm British!) is fromn September through until December 20th, so if a fall / autumn release does happen, it should be in that time frame. This was good news to wake up to! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paola17 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Ok, so he said the album. Now, what about a single? For those that notice these trends and have an idea of previous promo, would you say the possibility of hearing a single in May is not entirely out there? I don't remember how the rumor began but ...

GenXIdiot Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Yeah..Porbably getting an announcement in May with press release/photoshootl, but no single yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanity Loan Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 See the first single release dates below for all albums (that count). Based on these, I don't think we'll see a single until August or September (assuming a September or October release). This is of course if they stick to the trend. Dookie (and before) Doesn't count because no one knew Green Day, so standard single marketing doesn't apply Insomniac Album release: October 10, 1995 Single release: September 25, 1995 ("Geek Stink Breath") Nimrod Album release: October 14, 1997 Single release: September 22, 1997 ("Hitchin' a Ride") Warning Album release: October 3, 2000 Single release: August 31, 2000 ("Minority") American Idiot Album release: September 21, 2004 Single release: August 31, 2014 ("American Idiot") 21st Century Breakdown Album release: May 15, 2009 Single release: April 16, 2009 ("Know Your Enemy") UNO Album release: September 25, 2012 Single release: July 16, 2012 ("Oh Love") DOS Album release: November 9, 2012 Single release: October 15, 2012 ("Stray Heart") TRE Single(s) didn't matter at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
