Green Day not ready to rest "idiot" @ Billboard:
here.
After the North American tour wraps, Armstrong says Green
Day may play stadium gigs in Australia and/or South America.
"I'd love to play Russia and Cuba -- places rock shows don't
normally go," he says. "After that, we'll end up sitting
around and chatting about what is going to be the next
album."
But Armstrong has a head start as far as that's concerned,
admitting he has "about 15 new songs" in the hopper already.
"Right now, it's that no-pressure/fun stage of just getting
on a four-track and coming up with some goofy stuff," he
says. "Eventually, something sort of unfolds. It's exciting.
The juices are always flowing."

We
need your help to get Green Day nominated for the MTV Viewer's
Choice Award at the 2005 Video Music Awards.
This year, videos compete head to head each day, and the
winning video moves on to the next day. When a video survives
5 rounds, it gets a slot in the nominee line-up. Today, Green
Day's "American Idiot" video is up against Simple Plan's
"Untitled," which is on its fourth day. If anyone can knock
out Simple Plan, its the unstoppable Green Day and Team Green
Day.
Vote all weekend, as many times as you can, at
the Viewer's Choice Videodome.
Lets help Green Day slaughter the competition and take home
the award they deserve!

From GreenDay.com:
On July 2nd we will be joining with millions of people
worldwide at the Live8 concerts asking for our world leaders
to step up to the plate in the fight against global AIDS and
extreme poverty. What you might not know is that this is about
a real crisis in the world that demands our attention. Did you
know that every day 6,300 people die in Africa of AIDS?
Thousands of people dying every day from a preventable,
treatable disease and for lack of a 45 cent pill! These
statistics are staggering and yet as ONE we can let our
leaders know that this is unacceptable.
I want you to know about an important campaign called ONE.
Whether it's by going to the Live 8 concerts, sending a letter
to President Bush or by signing the ONE declaration at
ONE.org, the ONE campaign asks you to add your voice to those
calling on our leaders at the G8 summit in Scotland to lead an
historic breakthrough and help save the lives of millions of
people living in extreme poverty.
You can help. The ONE campaign asks all of us to do ONE thing
that will make a real difference for people living in poverty:
sign a letter (http://www.one.org/addmyvoice.aspx) to
President Bush asking him to seize the best opportunity we've
had in decades to actually end extreme poverty. The ONE letter
asks the President to make three bold commitments at the G8
summit of world leaders on July 6th - foreign aid, debt relief
and trade law reform. Please take a minute out of your day
today to help us support this incredible wave of action and
together we WILL make poverty history!
You can sign the letter to President Bush by going here:

******************************************************************************
No room at the inn for
Green Day ad
Who knew that Green Day was too hot for the Marriott
Marquis?
The Independent Film Channel had booked an outdoor wall of
the Times Square hotel to advertise IFC's year-long
association with the popular punk band on a 28-by- 43-foot
billboard.
But Marriott execs immediately balked when they saw the
billboard's cartoon image: a heart-shaped grenade gripped by a
bloodied hand.
"We have the right to review all advertising that goes on
our buildings," a Marriott spokeswoman told me, "and if we
feel it has any political, pornographic or inappropriate
content, we have the right to reject that ad."
I'm no hotel honcho, so maybe that's why I can't figure out
what's political or pornographic - let alone inappropriate -
about the Green Day billboard.
Green Day front man Billie Joe Armstrong
was equally baffled.
When he heard about the ban Friday, "I thought it was an
April Fool's prank," he said.
But IFC exec Evan Shapiro smells a rat.
"We were told that the billboard was distasteful, and
that's ridiculous," Shapiro told me. "I also heard that
somebody at Marriott said they hate everything that Green Day
stands for. ... The chairman of the company [J.W.
Marriott Jr.] is pretty outspoken about his politics
and he's a very strong supporter of a certain party. I would
imagine that Mr. Marriott is not a fan of Green Day's song
'American Idiot.' ... But if anybody tries to take our freedom
of speech away, they'll take it from my cold, dead hand!"
The hotel spokeswoman said Chairman Marriott had nothing to
do with banning the billboard - which, in any case, will go up
tomorrow a few blocks away at the W Hotel.

G R E E N D A Y
A m e r i c a n I d i o t
Always underestimated because they were such convincing idiots
themselves in the early 90s, Green Day has matured into a
worldview, and this rock opera about politics and ignorance is
their career best. Musically, they still love three chords and
a wall of fuzz, but they've found ways to stretch their
compositions from two minutes to nine without Meatlovian
pretension while Billy Joe's occasionally keen observations
about red states never forget their most important function is
to rhyme.

Mike Dirnt @ MTV:
The stolen
master tapes of the album Green Day originally recorded before
American Idiot have yet to surface, but the band is
waiting for the inevitable. "My only request is whoever's got
those songs, if you put it out, put a decent cover on it,"
Mike Dirnt joked. In all seriousness, the bassist said some of
the material may be rescued officially. "Some of that may turn
into other songs when we record again," he said. ...
