In case you somehow missed the news, Green Day returned to their old stomping ground, 924 Gilman, to play a benefit show on Sunday night. All ticket proceeds from the special show went towards the relief campaign for two local printing businesses, AK Press and 1984 Printing, whose warehouses were damaged by a large fire.

1984 Printing, one of the affected businesses, has made up limited-edition gig posters for the Gilman benefit. They feature artwork drawn by Jesse Michaels (who did artwork for some of Green Day's earliest releases) and commemorate Green Day's return to Gilman. They can be purchased on 1984 Printing's website for only $10 (plus shipping). We're not sure how limited these posters are, so get your hands on one before they sell out. All proceeds will help aid the two Oakland businesses in their recovery efforts!
