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: ONE.org

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.

01/10/05 : GREEN DAY in TIME Magazine
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.

Green Day Unveiling New Song In 'Madden 2005' Video Game @ VH1: here.

The release of Green Day's new album, American Idiot has been moved to Tuesday, September 21st, 2004.

News from KROQ:

Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong said when writing their new album, the gloves were off and they just went for it. They wanted to push themselves to be maximum Green Day. They had a completed album a year and a half ago, but the master tapes were stolen, and now that they look back, they feel like the stolen material wasn’t up to maximum Green Day standards. They feel the hard thing now will be outdoing the new disc, American Idiot, which drops September 21st.

Jesus Of Suburbia Is The Star Of Green Day's Punk Opera: here.

"What we like to do is, in certain situations, like in a few theaters, we'll play everything from the new album [linearly]," Armstrong said. "And then just play our set, which is all of the songs from all of our other albums. I'm excited about the diversity we'll be able to pull off live."

A fall tour itinerary will be announced later this summer.

Several radio stations across the country have similar contests coinciding with the NCAA basketball tournament, but Y100's is the biggest of the bunch. Listeners call in all weekend to vote for each match up and decide who advances to the next round and is ultimately crowned "World Champion of Modern Rock."

Green Day beat Puddle Of Mudd, Bush, R.E.M., Radiohead, Rancid, and finally defending champions Weezer to win back the title. Green Day was also 2002's Modern Rock Madness champions, and this is the third year in a row that they met Weezer in the finals.

Green Day Cranking Out Songs -"Warning" follow-up due in summer/fall @ Rolling Stone: here.

Green Day are at work in Los Angeles with longtime producer Rob Cavallo. They plan to release a new album late this summer or early this fall.
"We've got about thirty-five songs we're going to record," says frontman Billie Joe Armstrong. "It's a lot of material. We're trying to get one theme throughout the album, because we're in the album business, not in the business of making singles."

This will be Armstrong, bassist Mike Durnt and drummer Tre Cool's first album since 2000's Warning -- or their first under the Green Day moniker. Last year, a synth-pop group called the Network -- featuring such mysterious members as Snoo, Fink, Van Gough, Captain Underpants and Z -- released its debut on Adeline Records, owned by Armstrong and his wife. Though Green Day won't cop to their alter-ego, there's little doubt who was behind the Network.

There will be no such confusion this time around, as the new record will proudly bear the Green Day name, and, according to Armstrong, the Green Day pop/punk style.

"We're really excited about it," he says. "And hopefully we can make some sense out of it."

I've been hearing so much about the Network-Green Day theory lately that I just had to include it in today's column. See, some people are saying that a new CD put out by a band called the Network is actually Green Day in disguise. (Members of the band have denied a connection.) Others say the Network consists of Green Day members collaborating with Devo. What do you think? The band does sound quite Green-ish ...

Ryan Adams's new album, Rock N Roll, was released today. The album features Billie Joe singing backup on the song, "Do Miss America." Download this clip & listen very closely, as Billie's voice was mixed rather softly in the song.

Also released today, Iggy Pop's new album, Skull Ring, features Green Day as his backup band on two songs. Listen to clips of Private Hell & Supermarket.

NEWS FLASH!!!

Green Day bass player Mike Dirnt wrote us regarding the Green Day / Network controversy:

Dear Network!         
I don't know which one of you clowns is your leader, but listen up!
Billie Joe may be obligated to put out your records, but I'm not obligated
to like your band.  I hope you enjoy your 15 minutes of borrowed fame, because
where I come from one good record doesn't mean dick. So keep runnin' your mouths
cause it'll give me a good reason to come to the Key Club and kick all your circus monkey
asses!!!!
                   Mike Dirnt!!!!!

In their new post, they invite Armstrong to their upcoming show next month in order to settle things once and for all. To read their full letter click: here.

According to the label, The Network "are extremely mysterious and never show their faces to humans or cameras. The members hail from all corners of the world and were brought together by an ancient prophecy, which predicted their rise to world power and eventually their demise". The Network just released their debut album Money Money 2020 through Adeline this week but you have to head to the Adeline website to get it.
