Guessing there will be overlap and it’ll be a good indicator of what we might get, but the small show is going to have significantly more songs.
I also feel like we haven’t talked much about if they’ll do any songs together. At the very least I think Green Day will bring the other two bands out for a couple songs, which would make sense why they’re rehearsing in the same place.
got an unexpected text today from a buddy saying he had an extra Hella Mega ticket. Looks like I'm going in 2 weeks! It's been forever since this tour was announced, and yet it still feels like it quickly snuck up on me lol
I was just telling my gf yesterday that we’ve had tickets for almost two years now. It doesn’t even feel real that this tour is finally happening
Looks like the set list from tonight's show is up on SetListFM. If this is any indicator of what the HellaMega set list winds up being? I'll be incredibly stoked.
Great mix for a band that has 30 years of albums even though I doubt that’s what it ends up being due to the exclusion of some obvious bangers in place of Kerplunk songs
For sure. I fully expect at least 75% of those older, deep cuts to get dropped in favor of a few others but... Still. It bodes well.
Honestly, I expected at least two. I was hoping for none, but expecting that many. The fact that there are none tonight (on the set list, anyway) makes me think they might just skip it altogether. From a promotion standpoint, the album is dead. Most fans don't seem to care too much about the record or any of its songs. I'm just not sure what the motivation would be... Unless they happen to really love some of the songs. And maybe they do and those aren't represented tonight but I dunno. Has me hopeful.
Wow, as someone who hasn't been a fan of Green Day since Warning, this setlist has me hella stoked (puns!). Never in a million years would've expected Burnout or Armatage Shanks in the setlist. But I can't see them doing stadiums and not playing Good Riddance, September, Holiday or Boulevard.
Counter-argument: They don't need to practice that one because they've played it so many times over the years. But yeah. Feeling the same way!
Holy shit, that setlist is STACKED SUPER stoked for J.A.R. and Scattered! Two of my favorite GD songs!!
They cut a lot of the songs off the written setlist (they didn't even play Basket Case or American Idiot) and the show was only 85 minutes so most people seem to think this was them testing how much they can fit in their designated time slot since they usually play over an hour longer
Someone on Reddit says they found on the set times for Saturday. Didn’t see a specific source, but sounds pretty right to me. They said 75 mins for Weezer and FOB and 90 for Green Day, which I think a lot of us are predicting. Rotating stage sounds realistic to me if there’s only 15 min changeover inbetween each. Gates Open at 4:30 Interrupters 5:30-6:00 Weezer 6:15-7:30 FOB 7:45-9:00 Green Day 9:15-10:45
My first thought when I saw this was Weezer and FOB 1 hour each, so they have 30 minutes between sets, and Green Day playing 1.45. Getting really excited about this and my date is almost a month away EDIT: I just saw the Reddit post and it says the show ends at 10:45, so Green Day will play 1.30, so it makes sense that their Tulsa show was 85 minutes long.
