GREEN DAY ANNOUNCE SACRAMENTO SHOW ON DEC. 1, 2012 AT MEMORIAL AUDITORIUM

Love ‘em or hate ‘em, you’ve got to respect how far punk-rock giants Green Day have come. It’s been a long time and a helluva lot of albums sold since their early days gigging at 924 Gilman Street in Berkeley, Calif., and their early releases on Lookout! Records.

Just this week, Green Day announced a date right here in Sacramento on Saturday, Dec. 1, and Submerge was majorly stoked to find that the show will (thank god) not take place at ARCO Arena (it’ll always be ARCO to us!). Instead it will be at the much more intimate and slightly better sounding Memorial Auditorium. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, Sept. 14 at 10 a.m. at Tickets.com. Green Day’s fan club, “Idiot Club,” has early access. Fans that purchase tickets online will be entitled to one free copy of Green Day ¡Uno! off of the bands upcoming trilogy Green Day ¡Uno!, Green Day ¡Dos!, and Green Day ¡Tré!
