Green Day Launch a Coffee Line

Green Day is the perfect band to crank up when you need a burst of energy. Now, they're giving us a java jolt with their new project: a coffee brand that'll make your hare stand on end!

The trio introduced the Punk Bunny Coffee line with multiple roasts to choose from. Green Day bassist Mike Dirnt explained in a video posted to Instagram: "Billie Joe, Tre and I are on a mission to bring our fans and our friends the best coffee in the world... All Punk Bunny roasts are organic and fair trade. We now have our own roasting facility, and we're partnering with amazing organic farmers all around the world."

The band are committed to sustainability with this brand, and they're partnering with Keurig to incorporate fully recyclable K-cup pods as a vessel for their delicious coffee.

They're also planning to donate a portion of Punk Bunny profits to organizations that are hand picked by Green Day. The 'Fueled By Love' initiative will benefit One Tree Planted, Eat Learn Play, the Ron Finley Project and more.

Here's what the band are serving up:

-Father of All... Dark Roasts (Ultra Dark Roast)

-Soundcheck (Dark Roast)

-Last Ride In (Medium Dark Roast)

-Light Club (Light Roast)

Fans can opt in for a subscription plan to keep their coffee mugs full at all times. There's also merch available on PunkBunnyCoffee.com.

Green Day are bringing the Saviors Tour to Philadelphia on Friday, August 9th. They'll be in South Philly at Citizens Bank Park, where they'll celebrate their biggest albums: Dookie and American Idiot. More info is available on MMR's official Concert Calendar.

Raise your roast with Pierre Robert every weekday morning during the Coffee Break Music Marathon: a stretch of songs to get you moving around 11am. Listen right here on WMMR.com, the free MMR App, or ask your smart speaker to "Open MMR".

Welcome to paradise! Green Day are returning to Philadelphia this summer. The Oakland trio have always had a second home in Philly - they've been playing gigs here since their pre-Dookie days, and even immortalized their '97 show at the Electric Factory in their recently released Nimrod box set.

WMMR has spoken with the gang many times, and you can always spot Pierre Robert bringing you complete concert coverage from the pit. In fact, when Pierre spoke with all three members of Green Day a few years ago, he brought along a list of past gigs, and Tre Cool was quite impressed with the history.

Green Day is our featured MMaRtist this weekend (1/20-1/21). This means we'll have chances for you to fill in blocks of their music with your song requests, plus we're giving out copies of the new LP on CD, and we'll get you qualified for pit tickets to their show on Friday August 9th at Pierre's Good Citizens Park.

Here's a tally of every time they've brought the house down in the City of Brotherly Love. Scroll through the list and tell us how many of these shows you were at on X/Twitter and Instagram. And if you've got any photos from the early days, DM us - we'd love to feature them!

Could you imagine seeing this arena-level band at a 125-person bar on South Street? Whenever he plays Philly, Billie Joe asks the crowd "Who was with us at JC Dobbs?!", and far more than 125 cheer in response. If you were actually there, you witnessed rock history in the making.

Just two months after their Philadelphia debut, Green Day graduated to the 300-cap Pennant East in Bellmawr, NJ. That club closed in 2011.

A few days later, the gang went across the river to the historic Trocadero in Chinatown.

Grape Street hosted the trio for 2 nights in the same week. (They've still got the volume up over in Manayunk.)

Billie Joe, Mike and Tre really made the rounds in Philly in the first half of 1993! Their next stop was Old City for a show at the Khyber.

Do you think they ordered a post-show vegan mushroom cheesesteak?

On the heels of the release of their breakthrough record Dookie, the trio returned to the Troc with a batch of new songs that would go on to become classics, including "Longview". See if you can spot hidden references in the album art. [SETLIST]

This ripper of a set at the Convention Hall included a mix of Dookie tracks (which were brand new at the time), plus covers of the Who and Operation Ivy, and early songs like "Going to Pasalacqua." [SETLIST]

About a month after dropping Insomniac, we witnessed Green Day live at the Civic Center. We couldn't track down the setlist for this one, so if you were there, let us know what they played that night!

This entire epic show is now available as part of the Nimrod anniversary set, as Pierre explains in his unboxing of the reissue. [SETLIST]

In 2000, Billie Joe, Mike and Tre returned to the E-Centre for punk rock summer camp, aka Warped Tour. [SETLIST]

By 1998, Green Day had reached dizzying heights with chart-toppers like "Good Riddance",  which they played for the Y-100 FEZtival at the E-Centre in Camden. [SETLIST]

Thanks to listener Andrew in West Chester for reminding us that Green Day once played in a volcano... well, if Kahunaville in Wilmington, DE counts. (It totally does.) [SETLIST]

With 6 LPs now under their belt, Green Day found themselves back in Camden for the Pop Disaster tour in 2002. [SETLIST]

Green Day became the biggest band in the world not once, but twice: if Dookie was the catalyst that brought pop-punk into the mainstream, American Idiot was the second coming of the genre, dominating the airwaves and permeating pop culture worldwide. [SETLIST]

By mid-2005, the rock opera American Idiot was one of the best-selling new albums in the world. The setlist on this tour pulled largely from that LP, with their 90s hits sprinkled throughout. [SETLIST]

This was one of the last rock shows in our old air conditioned girl, the Spectrum, which closed later in 2009 with Pearl Jam's legendary 4-night run. [SETLIST]

When Green Day released yet another concept album, 21st Century Breakdown, we wondered if it could possibly be as fantastic as its predecessor American Idiot. Spoiler alert: it totally was. [SETLIST]

At Green Day's stop on Temple's campus, we witnessed Derrick from Macungie rip through "Jesus of Suburbia" on Billie Joe's guitar with unbelievable precision. Pierre caught up with an ecstatic Derrick after the show, and a few years later played that audio for Billie Joe, who choked up over the emotion on display. [SETLIST]

By 2016, there weren't many venues that the band had *not* hit in Philly, but on this night they checked another one off the list: the iconic Tower Theater in Upper Darby. [SETLIST]

Now on their 12th studio album Revolution Radio, the boys returned to Camden, and this time all three of them sat for an interview with Pierre. Check out the concert gallery here. [SETLIST]

After a long break - made even longer by the COVID pandemic - Green Day triumphantly returned to Philly with the Hella Mega Tour for a bombastic show at the ballpark. See more photos here. [SETLIST]

Billie Joe did make an additional appearance in Philly a few years ago, so we'll include one of his side projects on this list. The Longshot played the Church basement in the summer of 2018, and it was so hot that the walls were sweating. [SETLIST]

Green Day return to Pierre's Good Citizens Park this summer with the Smashing Pumpkins, Rancid and the Linda Lindas. Listen to WMMR this weekend (1/20-1/21) for your shot at pit tickets!
