[quote]I'm playing a special acoustic show at Bowery Electric tonight at 9PM EST. Tickets go on sale at 10AM EST today and tickets are available for Idiot Nation members only. Doors at 7:30PM EST. 2 Ticket Limit. Get tickets HERE.
See you there[/quote]
Tickets will be sold in the morning via Green Day's new Ticketing Platform, which we assume will become the standard way to purchase tickets for exclusive Green Day shows and events in the future. Idiot Nation recommends that anyone who plans on purchasing tickets for the acoustic show makes an account on the Ticketing Platform prior to the pre-sale. Anyone who manages to purchase tickets during the pre-sale later this morning will need to present a valid form of ID (matching their order name) at will call to pick up their tickets.
There has been discontent among some Green Day fans who've accused Idiot Nation of not offering enough exclusives. This show should silence at least those in the NYC area for a little bit! This isn't the first time Billie Joe has played an acoustic show at the Bowery: he and Jason White played an intimate set there in 2012. We aren't sure whether or not Billie Joe will have any sort of accompaniment at tonight's show, but it's sure to be a fantastic show regardless. If you are able to attend the show, be sure to tweet us your pictures/videos at @GDA or submit them via our site!
