Punk rock band Green Day famously calls back to their Bay Area roots as frequently as possible. Frontman Billie Joe Armstrong couldn't be prouder to be from Rodeo, a Bay Area suburb. And now, he returns to the venue that started it all: 924 Gilman St. with his project Pinhead Gunpowder on November 6.
The show was announced this morning via the venue's Instagram page. The post states:
"×
¡Adiós, América! HOLA GILMAN STREET!
East Bay, this one is for you!
⚠️ Tickets are available TODAY in person at the club ONLY! 2 pm!!!
● The Address is the same as the name!
⚠️ MUST have a PHYSICAL MEMBERSHIP CARD with you for ticket purchase!
● Note: Membership Card does not have to be currently active; bring your old ones!
⚠️ Cash and Card Payments accepted!

The intimate venue and hometown energy will surely make this a memorable show. Billie Joe Armstrong has not appeared at the venue since March 15, 2015, when Green Day made a surprise appearance at a benefit event.
It is advised that locals arrive at the venue as soon as possible, since tickets are expected to sell out quickly. 924 Gilman St. has a capacity of approximately 300 and is celebrating its 40th birthday this year.
