“It’s October 1st, WAKE UP,” her current post reads. But what’s behind it?
On October 1st, a mysterious post appeared on Green Day’s Instagram page. “It’s October 1st, WAKE UP! Hit the snooze button now on www.theamericandreamiskillingme.com,” the post reads. The mysterious post gives rise to the suspicion that there is more behind the reference to her song “Wake Me Up When September Ends”.
In addition to the description, the post shows a video in which an alarm clock rings at exactly 10:24 a.m. Green Day singer Billy Joe Armstrong wakes up and looks at a calendar. October 24th is circled in red on this. Fans are hoping that this cryptic message means an announcement from the group, perhaps even new music.
If you visit the one mentioned in the caption website, you will find a “Snooze” button that logs you in for a “Wake Up Call”. What exactly is hidden behind it is not yet known.
