Foxboro news from official Green Day list

Apr. 3, 2008 / Comments

Apparently the mailing list from GreenDay.com sent out an email to everyone telling them they could purchase 'The Pedestrian' from Jingle Town Records. The song is 99 cents and the quality is much better.

Now if that isn't a big clue that Green Day is tied in with the FHT, then I don't know what could be. Click here to purchase the song.

Update: The song is now also available on iTunes. Click here to purchase it there.

'Mother Mary' landed at #3 on Sirius Radio's Alt Nation in their top 21 countdown.
