Happy New Year!

Jan. 1, 2009 / Comments
Happy New Year to all of you great people. 2008 was pretty exciting for us Green Day fans, and no doubt there's ton's more coming in 2009. We have a new editorial going up tomorrow, written by Cheryl (*withoutadoubt* on the forum) who writes about the anticipation we have for the good things coming from Green Day this year. So come back for that.

Here's the recap of 2008 that I promised. All the note-worthy events that happened in the Green Day world last year can be found there, with links for all the details you could want. It's definitely a wonderful way to get caught up.

I'd like to give my sincerest thanks to all of you who have visited GDA for so long. Not just a half-assed thanks, but the sincerest. I'm extremely lucky to be able to interact with so many of you and be a part of this niche website. You have to admit, of all the things on the net, we're certainly in our own corner. Thanks for sticking by us and visiting so frequently. We'll be doing our best to make things even better throughout 2009 as we wait in anticipation for Green Day's next album. We can finally say it's coming this year!

To start off on a clean slate, we've archived all the news, which you can find in the aptly named News Archives.
