Entertainment Weekly-9/8/00-FALL MUSIC PREVIEW:
Green Day::Warning:: "Two years ago, Green Day fans got a
shock with the disarmingly tender ballad "Good Riddance(Time
of Your Life)." For its sixth album the Bay Area trio continues
to veer toward the pop side of pop-punk. "There are a lot
of accoustic guitars on the album," admits singer-guitarist
Billie Joe Armstrong. "But then, we never claimed we were
the most 'punk' band around. Sometimes, the most dangerous
thing you can do is be totally vulnerable." 10/3
The October issue of "Stuff Magazine" is now on the shelves.
It has a small article about the new album, including a quote
from the band that basically says, that listening to the new
album makes you want to stand up, and pour alcoholic beverages
all over yourself at Denney's. Check it out.
Sophie was nice enough to send us in pictures

Greetings, everyone... one thing.. I'm not dead,
just lazy.Everyone e-mail Brian and tell him he's been doin'
a kickass job on updates.
I'll be adding tour dates to the Warning page tonight, so
it's all organized and stuff.
Also, regarding TRL, to all of us hardcore Green Day fans'disappointment,
who probably skipped their last class to catch the show, Hanson
made an appearance, rather than Green Day. We appoligize.
But yeah, Thursday.. Minority..premiere.. we promise this
time. 3:30/2:30c on MTV.
Also, bootlegs.. I'll be reopening the shop soon,as I'm pretty
much caught up on orders. Couple thingschanging. No more videos
for sale... Videos, trade only.All videos have been transfered
to CD and will be theonly format purchaseable. For the videos,
you'll haveto trade me. Another feature I'll be adding, is
that youorder before you send money. Then, when your order
is packaged, stamped, and ready to mail, I'll e-mail you andTHEN
you send money, so I don't have anymore angered people,and
to those of you who have waited countless months, I appoligize.I'll
send you free stuff or something.
Thanks to Gregg Verutes for this bit of news.Billie Joe when
asked about the Horror Movie, "It was a bad idea that justgot
worse. We are not doing it."
One more thing before I go.. we're having as big of a contestas
possible begining September 25th, 2000. We'll have 3 Copiesof

there'll be more copies of Warning, but for now, that'sconfirmed.
How can you sponsor the contest without giving usany money?
Pre-order Warning by clicking on the banner justabove this

That's all for now, and again, our appoligies to the fans

from the Boston Herald.
"Warning,'' the group's fourth album for
a major label, is inthe final mixing stages. "It's finished
enough to know that it's the bomb, man, it's the shiatsu,''
says Cool, who was born Frank Edwin Wright III.
Hey, everyone. An update on Tre, from the same source.. It
sounds like he'll be alright. Mike commented to our source
that"Tre gashed his head on a flying cymbal." Here's
the story, thanks again to Jonathan of the Citizens: "From
what I could see, when tre knocked over the set he fell over
it as usual. Then he was smashing it for a while. Then he
finally lit it. He threw a cymbal that was off the stand pretty
high into the air, it came down and I didnt see tre after
that. Mike said he's ok, just resting. I think he'll be fine.
We could see him in the back of the bus with his head wrapped."
Also, [email protected]

and I addedmy pics from Minneapolis. Check 'emout in the Warped
Tour Picture Archive. I'll also be scanning 6 more Minneapolis
photos tonight, so check the site tommorow morning for new
pics.

The All Access show on MTV was a disappointment.
No Warped show, and no recent interview. They played part
of theEdgefest show from 1998 in Vancouver, which has been
available in the GreenDay.Net bootleg shop for around a half
of a year now. Suck. Also, even more suck. Tonight at the
Pittsburg Warped show, Tre cut his head open on a flying cymbal.
Sources who were at the show say Mike and Billie came out
of the bus as the day was ending, and told somepasser-byers,
that Tre` was injured. Hopefully no postponments, but stay
tuned to the site for more info. Thanks goes out to Jonathan
McCune of The Citizens for that info.
Green Day is going to be on MTV's Total Request Live: TODAY
near the beginning of the show. Check your local listings
for times, but here on the West Coast it's 3 p.m.
Green Day will be on MTV's ALL Access show tomorrow at 11:30
EST. Don't miss that.
Apparently Billie and Mike have new guitar pics for this
tour, check them out here, thanks to Jessica
(click

The Randall's Island New York date of the Warped
was cancelled due to heavy rain. It has been rescheduled to
July 24th. Click

Hey, everybody. As many of you know Green Day
was on MTV's TRL tonight. Well, since we gave you such late
notice on the appearance, I thought I'd do my best to get
it up on the site. You can download it in Logitech format
here:
Appx.
2 1/2 Minutes, 7.5 MB... A GreenDay.Net Exclusive!
Since I don't have very good equipment for transfering TV
to Computer, it looks kinda crappy, but it's better than nothing,
and the sound.. you hear this crazy BZZZZZZZ in the background,
but you can still hear the entire interview. And don't worry..
I'm not giving you a virus. The file is in EXE format because
it includes a video player. I made it this format so it was
7.5 MB, rather than it's original 239 MB in AVI format.
I'm also gonna start sending out newsletters again, because
the newsletter has nearly 5,500 subscribers, so if you want
to get on that list, subscribe at
http://409online.listbot.com.
And finally, many of you have been sending me pictures from
Warped shows, which is really cool of you. BUT, make SURE
you make them JPEGs, so they're filename.jpg, because when
you send bitmaps, it fills my e-mail inbox, which means other
people who e-mail me can't get through because my inbox is
out of room.
Thanks everyone.. GREEN DAY FOR PRESIDENT!

Also you might want to give the Kerrang Article another read,
because the last version was missing some parts, but here
is the full thing: Click here
"Soon news vans are being attacked as LA police officers
line up and prepare to take things in hand. "Oh shit,
look at that!" chirrups Green Day drummer Tr� Cool, pulling
up a chair to watch the action alongside the increasingly
concerned MTV workers, many of who know that the riot stands
between them and the safety of their beds tonight."
Your guess is as good as mine, as to what this image is:
here
It looks like an image from that game Halflife, with a Green
Day logo on it.
E-mail Brandon
Healy maybe he will tell you what it is :o)
Hey, everybody. Sorry it took so long to get this stuff up.
Please do me a favor and harrass the hell out of the fine
folks who run my internet service, Buffalo City. It's like
relying on snow to defrost frozen peas. ANYWAYS, I hit the
Minneapolis Warped and holy shit, what a show. I've made a
whole new page, noting stuff from my experience. I'll be adding
some cool promotional crap I found down there and some more
pics my friend took.. I ran out of film just as Green Day
went on stage. HOWEVER, I did manage to find the Green Day
bus, and got some very cool close-up shots of Billie and Mike..
Tre, however, doesn't like his picture taken, or so it would
seem.
Click HERE to see my review and my pics..
the promo stuff and my friend's pics will come tommorow or
Sunday.
I also have very close-up pics of One Man Army, Midtown,
and Floggy Molly if anyone wants 'em. One Man Army is one
band that you can't pass up seeing if you still plan on hitting
a Warped show. If you miss them, you might as well go home.
Here is a scan of an official Green Day setlist that was
on stage last night in Chicago at the Warped Tour. Click

close-up pictures of Green Day from Broc soon.

"Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong has launched a tounge-in-cheek
campaign to become America's president. The band's 'Billie
Joe For President' summer campaign will coincide with the
latest presidential battle between Senators Al Gore and George
W Bush. Besides printing thousands of posters, the band have

New article from Mean Street, which talks about the Green
Day US tour starting in November:
With the bass line for "Longview" welcoming fans to
the homepage, Green Day finally launched an official website
last month at www.officialgreenday.com, six years after that
hit launched them into superstardom. The site features exclusive
photos, tour dates, merchandise, tons of videos, info on joining
the Idiot Club and a letter from Billie Joe himself... in his
own writing (oooh wee!).
Green Day will spend July on the road as headliners for
the Warped Tour before releasing their sixth album, "Warning",
set for an October 3rd release on Reprise. Green Day recorded
the album themselves in their hometown of Oakland and is currently
being mixed by Jack Joseph Puig (Goo Goo Dolls, The Verve
Pipe, No Doubt). The band will embark on a full U.S. tour
beginning in November.
-thanks to www.greendaysite.com for that
GREEN DAY VIDEO CLIP @ Warped

was nice enough to make us a quick little clip of Green Day
in Anaheim from June 30th. If you are interested in getting
a copy on video, as well as Weezer's set e-mail him for details:
[email protected].
But for now here is a small taste, a 1 minute clip from "Longview"

ASF files are smaller then mpegs, and you can stream them
with Internet Explorer, but Mpegs are better quality- and
bigger. If you are using Netscape, press shift and click on

to more coming in the next few weeks.

Some of you may have caught this update earlier, but Brian
has seemed to upload over it :) GreenDay.Net, with the help
of Macromusic.com, will soon hold a contest, supporting the
new album. Tentative prize listings are as follows: GRAND
PRIZE (1): Two tickets to an upcoming Green Day show on their
Warning tour, a copy of the "Warning" Album One Day Before
It's U.S. Release, and the Warning Import Single. SECOND PRIZE
(10): The "Warning" album one day before it's U.S. Release,
and THIRD PRIZE (30): The "Warning" Import Single. I'm working
on more prizes and stuff, so as soon as I get more stuff figured
out, I'll let you know.
Also, as many of you know, Warped is in Minneapolis this
Tuesday with special guests No Doubt and Lit, along with the
Black Eyed Peas. I'll be catching this Warped show, and plan
on having some promotional material, and I'd like to catch
a couple of you punks before the show so I can give you crap
to hand out.. like GreenDay.Net stickers and maybe even a
few bootleg CDs with a whole crapload of advertisements advertising
the site and stuff. In exchange, you'll get some free crap
too.. probably a Warning Import or something. So if you're
attending the Minneapolis Warped, e-mail me as soon as possible
at [email protected]. I also got my copy of Spin yesterday,
and noticed some cool stuff. As previously mentioned, there's
a pic of the guys in there, but in addition to that, a full-page
article about Warped and the new album. I'll be typing that
out as soon as I'm done with this update, so come back in
an hour from now (11:28PM Central Time) and it should be up.
It is also my last issue of Spin, and my re-subscription card
features a full page black and white photo of Billie, and
says like "It Stops Here" or something, and he's holding his
hand out.. I'll get the re-subscription card, and the photo
of the magazine scanned before I leave for Minneapolis on
Monday.
That's all for now.. stay tuned right here at ten to the
hour, every hour, on MT... uh, nevermind
Green Day will appear from the warped tour on Much Music
along with the other Warped Tour bands July 29th. Click: here
