Went to the Green Day concert last night

Sure it was packed with kids half my age (and probably not old enough to know their first album), but that concert rocked!

Opening band was someone I never heard of. . .

2nd band was Unholy Grail. I knew all of their songs, but never knew their name until last night.

Then Green Day came on and blew the roof off the place! :thumbsup:

They used to be good, but now they suck.

They played their old stuff too. Maybe a 70:30 ratio of new😱ld.

But I had to go since this is their last tour (so they announced). And tickets were a bday present. 🙂
 
I went to one a couple months ago. While fun, the average age of the crowd managed to make even me (23) feel old.

Next time I think I'll stay home and clean my dentures instead.

Yeah, not sure if it was staged, but they got 3 volunteers from the audience:

1 guy who could drum
1 guy who could play bass
1 guy on lead guitar.

The 3 guys played while the rest of the members sat back and sang. If it was real, that was too cool.

Was the guy on guitar asian?

heres what my friend e-mailed. I didn't believe him

t was awesome! They let ____ go on stage, play the guitar
for a couple minutes...and then forced him to shave his head!!! To exit
the stage, Billy Joe made ____ do a stage dive into the crowd.

Head shaving is false (I think the head shaving is false, I'll find out later) but he claims to have gone up.

1/2 asian? he looked like a dark haired white boy to me.
kinda short, red/black where's waldo long sleeve shirt. He gave Billy a homo-hug when he got on stage. Sound like your friend?
 

The guy in question was clearly not 100% asian...

He did stage dive and there was a moment where security ran over there to make sure that he was ok.

This is NOT Green Day's last tour - it's the last official night of the tour. They play a show at the Wiltern in LA this week.

Flogging Molly and Jimmy Eat World opened for them.

I was in the pit along with the rest of the teenagers and saw a bunch of them leave quickly after they were subjected to some mosh pit fun.

Flogging Molly. . . yeah, thanks.

You weren't the guy in an orange shirt in the mosh pit, were you? I was watching that guy run around in circles then get clocked buy this huge guy in a white t-shirt. He must have flew back 10 feet.

Nope - wasn't me, but I was fairly close to the pit to see him.

Flogging Molly is a great band. I would enjoy seeing them more than Green Day!
