Green Day Hit The Road
Filed under: Music Minute
First the first time ever, Green Day's "alter-ego" side, the Foxboro Hot Tubs, is set to hit the road.
Starting next Monday, May 19th, Foxboro Hot Tubs are going on tour. They will begin performing in Little Rock, Arkansas.
The eight day trek will have tickets for sale but will only be available at the venue's box office on the day of the show.
Tickets are $20 and cash only.
We have no problem with cash, but sucks to show up to the concert and not get in because tickets sold out.
The single, Stop Drop and Roll, from the band's new album, Mother Mary, has peaked at number 16 on the Billboard's Modern Rock chart.
The single will go on sale on May 20th.

"We have no problem with cash, but sucks to show up to the concert and not get in because tickets sold out."
Maybe its so scalpers cant buy them all in advance and sell them for more profit that the band cant get a cut of…
Aren't they all married to Avril Lavigne
and/or Ashlee Simpson????????
Well, they played support acto in the 90s in Germany for DIE TOTEN HOSEN, Germany's most successful (punk)rock group….and Green DAy were definitely punk - and their live performances were GREAT (they were still completely unknown in Germany back then) and I just love their song and video "American Idiot"! I never miss their concerts when they come to Germany.
)
I don't get the whole "after the jump" thing. Maybe I'm too old, maybe I'm not clever enough….could someone please explain?
I love GD and wish that the FBHTs were touring on the East Coast
IS IT JUST ME, OR DOES THE GUY ON THE RIGHT LOOK SUSPICIOUSLY LIKE A MIDGET?
The venue for the San Diego show has changed, it is now at Belly Up
And they have added two more dates on Oakland and Crockett, CA for the 15th and 16th
Gay.
yay
my friend is totally in love with them
and their foxboro hot tubs songs
inconvenient for fans, but totally bucks all ticketmaster fees for the fans. why aren't they promoting that part of it? whipsmart!
What, no Bay Area show, and they live here. I see Billy Joe and his son at the market all the time. I love their new stuff.
aren't they from the bay area?
and no shows?
that's totally upsetting.
Yay -good for them!! Scalpers suck!!!!!
I love them. They rock! I can listen to A.I. 3 times and day and not get tired of it.
Who wants to see Perez in a John Mayer neon ball hugger?
OK, since when do bands have alter-ego's???? Why can't they just play as themselves. Um, does anyone remember when Garth Brooks did this?? Look how well that turned out. C'mon Green Day…you can do better than Garth Brooks! I'm very disapointed!
Billie Joe, is that your comment on #6????
Nowhere near VA or DC…
Figures.
Re: Sid –
oh good one.
now i TOTALLY agree with your very nonsensical description.
EMO green day…..
It sucks when every guy in a band is ugly. Why bother making a video.
their playing right down the street from me in the french quarter in new orleans. looks like i'll be having a fun afternoon getting out there super early and partying my ass of in line.
Why do so many limited tours skip midwestern stops? This is getting ridiculous.
I'm glad I'm old enough to have witnessed true punk music. These douches are no different that Advil Latrine.
BillyJoe…best neighbor I have ever had. The guy is cool! The rest of the country don't know about what it is like to grow up in the east bay and make it……BIG! Always will be a fan
as a matter of fact i am a green day, and i also like this alter ego of theirs. Its different and pretty good. I didn't know Green day had it in them to create a new type of Beatle music.
Okay WOW wearing EYELINER IS GAY! How does that get to do with anything? Atleast they don't care what you think and have GUTS to wear what they want. Apperance is something you see its not something that DEFINES you.
if punk music never changed then there would be NO punk music it'll all be done. SO yeah, maybe green day's punk music isn't "real" punk to you but WHO CARES. ITS A GENRE! Its IRRELEVANT to the situation people. Geesh.
Wow three shows in CA and not one in the bay area, that kinda sucks!
Great news!
only two more days,can´t wait.
Uhh!
Why no new Green Day?!
Screw the alter egos! I want a new Green Day record!
oaktowndude - It's BILLIE Joe.
…ugh!
They look so old! It's horrible and scary. Please put the make up away and focus on making a different record to the one you've been releasing and re-releasing over again for the last 10 years.

just so everyone knows…
their albums came out a few months ago, for FREE dl, on their website..
i don't know if it's still up…
but yeah, the entire album was free.
luv ya perez!~
What the fuck happened to them?
And the scalpers thing — not that I care, but give it a break. I wouldn't spend a newly printed dollar on Green Day, let alone twenty bucks — cash or credit. Green Day supposedly started because they love to perform & make music & all that cliche crap that every band says until they make it big. Greedy much?
Overrated pop band pretending to be punks.
Punk posers…overrated pop band
I LOVE GREEN DAY ! BILLIE JOE'S SO UNBELIVABLY HOT
Re: Ashley –
What do you want? Free shows?!
Because that makes so much sense. Think before writing.
i think that's awesome-it'll be like the old days when you actually had to lineup early. everybody gets a shot, but you gotta be dedicated. so old school-love it!
Jeeeez, at first glance I thought they were the Trailer Park Boys!
come to canada!
THANK YOU Perez. You are so groovy for that. I live in Little Rock and would have never known that was them. I have since visited their myspace page, bought and downloaded their new rockin' album and will be there at Juanita's on the 19th. I am listening now and you have made my day!!!!!
DAMMIT! They are coming to phoenix and I will be out of town!
i'm so excited, i love ALL of green day's music.
billie joe is gorgeous.
you have since heard about them? damn…I was in their first 300 friends on myspace before it became 16 000 in just a few months. PEREZ! "Mother Mary" is the SINGLE and "Stop Drop and Roll" is the ALBUM! gosh! please get your info right next time you post news about a great band…uch…shame…and stop it with the homophobic shit people. grow up. seriously. If they sucked, they wouldn't be at the top of the charts all the time and selling millions of records. They deserve it. AI was a masterpiece in more ways than one.
Also, they ARE playing a show in the Bay area. It's the first date on the tour. It was announced just the other day on GDA so Perez didn't know.
The Foxboro Hot Tubs
May 15th - Stork Club - OAKLAND
and there's another on the 16th at Toot's Tavern in CROCKETT California
(dunno if that's bay area or not, I live in Canada)
Re: Ashley –
GREEDY!? Madonna charges $300 FUCKING DOLLARS to see her, and no offense, but she can't sing live for SHIT! only 20 dollars to see Green Day? That's less than any big bands. Heck I paid 50$ to see a smaller canadian band in Febrauary. You're such a fuktard. Also, they released half of the FHT album for FREE!!! and what about Billie Joe's sideband? It was only SIX DOLLARS to see them live! god. how selfish can YOU be!? asshole.
Re: hardly –
Do you know ANYTHING about them? Avril grew up in a small hicktown in my province. She sang choir in church and shit. She doesn't know what real punk is, shes just pop shit. Green Day grew up playing with real punk bands (bad religion, rancid, dead kennedys etc) at 924 Gilman in the underground punk scene in Cali. Do your research before trying to say something that you think will make you smart.
Re: ha ha –
Any fan would know that they aren't married to any celebrities and certainly not those two. (of course you're just a hater who knows nothing about them) It's fucking Derek Whibley from shit41 who is married to that retard. BJ is the only one married, and his wife is more gorgeous than both of those two put together and photoshopped LMAO.
My best friends boyfriends band will be opening up for them on the tour…
WATCH OUT FOR "SMOKE UP JOHNNY"
fuckyes!
Re: jaysus – It's like a newspaper starting a story on the first page and then running across three other pages. You see a lot more ads in the paper that way. The more clicks you make, the more hits and impressions perez's site and the advertisers can have. After the jump is just to show you more ads.
Yeeey I love GD!
I already downloaded a bunch of their songs from their website and I love every one of them…I CAN'T WAIT!!!!! ONLY 5 more days!! WOOO! Oh and I love the heart on Billie Joe…it's sooo true!!
GREEN DAY tour soon PLEASE
the NOLA show flipping rawked!!!
GREEN DAY 4ever!!!!!!!!!!!!! IF YOU DONt LIKE GREEN DAY YOU SUCK!
