Green Day UK tour?

[Hart Attack]

Is this supposed to be happening still? We heard about it in the months leading up to the first Reading announcement, but that was a while back now and nothing's been announced yet. They're my favourite band that I haven't yet seen live, so I really want to know if this is going to happen... does anyone have any info?

[eFestivals]

It'll happen, trust me. Dates in Sept.

[MAD HARRY 27]

Dates revealed in September or they are playing in September?

If that's the case, any idea when tickets will go on sale?

the dates are in September (or, just perhaps, a little later in the Autumn).

That's all I know, but I'm 100% that my info on this is good. I've had info on their arena shows before from the same source and that proved to be true then too.

I'd guess that it won't be too long now before the dates are announced, as I've known this info for quite a while now.

This is turning into an expensive year for me musically with all of my favourite acts playing festivals or their own gigs. I can't wait to see Green Day again, I just hope they play either Nottingham or Birmingham on a Friday or Saturday night.

I can remember last year bands wee announcing arena dates in june for the autumn.

I reckon the best bet to work out when these Green Day dates are likely to be announced is to look back a few years to when they previously did an Arena tour that started in either Sept or Oct - it's very likely to work to a similar timescale.

I'm in 2 minds whether or not to buy Ben folds five tickets next Friday in case green day announce before I get paid again.

Can't afford both in the one month haha.

October late was when I went to their last UK Arena Tour - 2009. Possible they may choose to then go on an do a stadium tour like last time too?

[gazza_20]

If it's an Autumn tour then it's more likely to be an arena one as the weather would be too iffy and there would be less staduim venues as the footie would be one again.

[BTK1609]

The then to possible stadium tour was meaning summer next year. like in 09 arena tour, 10 summer stadium tour

[gazza_20]

I hope that you're right and that if it happens they play the Ricoh Arena. It would be nice to see some decent entertainment there for once

[jump]

Hmm, I think your more likely to get Wembley Stadium again with a couple of Emirates and maybe a Sunderland, but similar to Coldplay's but without Ricoh, just going by what they did last time, but I have nothing concrete on that obviously

[BTK1609]

I know it's not a stadium but the MK Bowl would go down a treat. No better big outdoor venue than that from my experience. It is also handily located for both London and the Midlands and has about the right capacity.

Haven't been to the MKBowl yet. Would like to.

I loved the MK Bowl at the Prodigy gig, but it is a bugger to get to and I hate you can only go into the 'golden circle' if you arrive early enough to get a wristband. But once the music starts it's brilliant!

[Dan R]

Yeah, I wouldn't be able to do the trek to MK very often! But luckily me and my friends managed to get there at the very start and get to the barrier - what was it like further back?

[BTK1609]

Warriors dance was absolutely incredible although I have to say the Foo's last year were even better. I'm disappointed it's SHM there this year who I have absolutely no interest in. Hopefully next year it will be Green Day.

[Babyquack]

Well i ended up on the second barrier so had a hell of a view and friends further back said the atmosphere was awesome throughout. It just annoyed me seeing loads of people sat at the back on the slopes wearing wristbands, leaving loads of space in the front section and the area behind it rammed. Just an annoying way to do it.
