Green Day reveal plans for world tour, 3 new song titles from the upcoming Revolution Radio, a soon-to-be release for a Tim Armstrong-directed music video, and that they are involved in a new documentary about East Bay punk.
Green Day went online live Tuesday afternoon to take over iHeartRadio’s Twitter page, answering some of their fan’s questions at #iheartgreenday. The band were bombarded by hundreds of questions, but they did take some time to reveal a couple of interesting things.
They answered in the affirmative when asked whether there will be a UK tour, as well mentioning it will be part of a Green Day World Tour sometime soon.

@TessTheGreatt Revolution Radio is the best of old GD and Later. A fresh take on a concept, songs that are three minute barn burners.

@Sam_Steffen98 MD: the root of GD has always been Billie, me, and Tre getting a room & jamming. This record is exactly that #iHeartGreenDay
