Artist: Green Day

Well, it looks like Green Day are about to get some new touring friends: Best Coast !

They'll squeeze a show at Barclay's Center in Brooklyn on April 7th. Check out the full list of tour dates for Best Coast below (even those after they part ways with Green Day).

Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , Exclusive Getty Green Day is back in a big way. After cancelling a tour in support of three excellent albums that were released in quick succession last year so lead singer/guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong could check into a rehabilitation facility to help kick his alcohol and prescription drug habits, the pop-punk heroes triumphantly returned to the stage on Friday night for a [...]

While Friday night everywhere is about going to parties and getting too inebriated to accurately recall the course of the evening, that sense of hedonism always gets heightened when you're at  South by Southwest . But while a huge chunk of ATX was chugging $11 beers and hitting that most wacky of tobaccy,  Consequence of Sound  was indulging in its own solitary drug of choice: music. Based on some of our choices, from a mid-'90s Southern rapper sensation to a riotous English psych-punk band, you might think  we  were the one's on drugs. But really, we just happened to find [...]

Looks like Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day isn't done with musical theatre just yet; the songwriter has been tapped to write songs for a Yale Repertory Theater production of These Paper Bullets , a "rock-and-roll" adaptation of the William Shakespeare's famous comedy, Much Ado About Nothing . The script is from playwright Rolin Jones and Billie Joe will provide the music. The show is expected to premiere in March 2014 and will be directed by Jackson Gay. The play is one of Shakespeare's most frequently adapted, with [...]

Along with the most irreligious of Christmases and the bittersweet final lunchtime of the summer term, the 7 o'clock at which Zane Lowe would enthuse over the line up for the following  Reading Festival   would always make for a quite monumental date in the schoolboy diary. I wouldn't eat as I'd await his prolix introductions and fashionably belated announcements, butterflies instead swarming about my stomach. And so it came to be upon the ravaged grasslands of Richfield Avenue that I had my first taste of a great many, and indeed many great things [...]

By Pamela Wilson Billie Joe Armstrong, in his first public performance since he entered rehab in September, greeted his fans on Sunday night as if they had been the ones who left. “Welcome back,” he told the crowd as Green Day began its “99 Revolutions” tour at the Fox Theatre in Pomona. As anyone in the line around the block could tell you, Green Day’s fans never went anywhere. They came to this show to let Armstrong know they support his efforts to overcome a substance-abuse issue — which derailed [...]

Green Day regresa a los escenarios con un rehabilitado Billie Joe Armstrong Ayer por la noche, Green Day regreso a los escenarios para ofrecer su primer concierto con un rehabilitado Billie Joe Armstrong , después de haber ingresado a rehabilitación el año pasado tras su desastrosa actuación en el iHeartRadio Festival , lo que originó el aplazamiento de su gira mundial. El setlist de 22 canciones casi no incluye canciones de su última trilogía, ¡Uno! , ¡Dos! [...]

Green Day returned to the stage in Pomona, CA last night for their first performance since last year’s controversial set at Las Vegas’ iHeartRadio Festival, which resulted in  frontman Billie Joe Armstrong’s rehabilitation  and the  postponement of their world tour . The 22-song setlist hardly featured anything off  ¡Uno! ,  ¡Dos! ,, and  ¡Tré! . Instead, there was a healthy dose of older material, specifically favorites off  American Idiot and Dookie . Catch footage from the show, along with the night's full setlist below. [...]

Green Day : Warning [ purchase ] Having a Broadway musical based on your songs is not generally a sign of “indie cred.” Green Day has to be considered one of the greatest “sell out” bands ever. I mean, they were just a bunch of punks, right? Who played loud, fast music with a remarkable pop feel. So, of course, they shouldn’t want to be successful, have millions of people hear their music and make lots of money. No, the purity of their art demands that they refuse [...]

Interstellar Transmissions, ready to blast off from SXSW 2012 but first they had to get out of traffic. The TV is telling us to “spring forward” our clocks this weekend, meaning we lose an hour of sleep. That’s scarcely enough preparation for some of us who next week will enter the swirl of madness and music known as South by Southwest. That South by Southwest thing (let’s call it SXSW from now on) is a week-long event in Austin, Texas. It’s a conference, kinda, and a festival, sorta – it has conferences on interactive [...]

Our official guide to all of the films at SXSW 2013 that are relevant to metalheads.

Una de las inclusiones de último momento para el enorme itinerario de SXSW 2013, sin duda fue la de Green Day. Ya estaba confirmado que presentarían dos documentales en el área de film y se rumoraba que se presentarían en music, lo cual parecía prácticamente imposible. Pues simplemente pensar en el último episodio que vivió [...]

Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong lets it be known that "this is definitely the only interview I'm gonna do" about his battles with substance abuse in a new Rolling Stone cover story, and he certainly made it count. "I'm sure that crossed her mind, that if I didn't get sober I could potentially lose all of that stuff," he said. "I could have lost the band too. I didn't realize how destructive I was. I thought everybody was in on the joke. But I was the joke." And with Green Day poised to return to [...]
