i’ve always known green day was a fantastic live band, but people don’t realize how great they actually are even in their 50s. so many bands are washed up, but green day still got it & got better with time. such a class act
I like greenday buttttt imagine your grandfather coming out dressed up with make up on its a little weird to see them .. manson . And others at that age . You would think your grandparents lost it if they did that as much as ya wanna say it would be awesome. not really
yup. i remember the Pop Disaster Tour in 2002 was the proving ground that their shows are still worth going to. while Blink-182 was the main event then, Green Day just proved that you can experience the fervor of a punk rock show (more specifically the 924 Gilman Street venue's vibes) when they ascend the stage
@@TheEngdannone of them are grandads and don’t really wear make up. They’re all in better shape than most of the crowd and are selling out and smashing the life out of stadiums all over the world for 2 and a half hours every night. How on earth is that a bad thing 😆
I was there and was absolutely blown away by not just the Band, but also the production quality of the stage. Felt really special seeing those 2 albums played. I’m really hoping this gets released as a live cd/dvd
I LOVED that song since it came out. Until, I literally lost my mother in September 2016. It became so hard to listen to it again until recently. I can relate to Billie’s loss and pain in losing a parent in that month. Still a great song and as an aspiring vocalist myself, I want to do a cover! ❤
@@SteveOGRock Thank you for this video! Got me clicking Subscribe after hearing your positive opinion of their show and LETTERBOMB ! 💣 ❤ I was OBSESSED with them as a teen and still love them. Seen them live 2x and my sister got pulled up onstage by Billie himself ! It’s on YT to prove this lol I look forward to future uploads of your adventures and opinions of it! 🫶🏼
I hadn't seen my brother for 4 yrs and then we went to this. Greenday got us both playing guitar back in the day. I was sobbing on the train on the way home. I will never forget that gig. Overwhelming joy, there are no words.
i was there!!! i was the only one stood up in my area for letterbomb and i was having the time of my life, to hear my favourite song live that i’ve loved since i was a kid was a dream come true, it was the best night i could ever imagine i loved it!!!!!!
@@LunaMill. i was so disappointed by everyone around me they only seemed to know the hits😭, some guy next to me had an ipad with the lyrics to basket case on i thought that was quite funny
Great review and totally agree. Words like 'wow' and 'awesome' have been said multiple times about this show. It was my first time seeing them (I'm 53), and my 20 year old son came too. He doesn't think he'll see them again purely because he can't see them beating this one. Someone who attended 2 other times this tour said Wembley was something else. I wouldn't be surprised if years from now critics are calling this show one of the greatest ever - not just of this band. I had such an amazing time and am still on a high from it as I write this 5 days afterwards. I said after about 6 songs that we'd already got our money's worth. We feel privileged and special to have been there.
back in the mid 90s, green day would leave the stage, typically after basket case or paper lanterns, & tre cool would play all by myself alone with an electric guitar. then all the boys would come back to play dominated love slave from kerplunk, which also has tre cool singing & billie joe on drums there’s plenty of 90s footage of them on youtube & they’re all great
I was at the show in Glasgow scotland and it was simply the greatest live show ive seen, with both dookie and american idot plus more from the new album and some from other albums. Insane
It's 26 years since me, and my brother saw Green Day at Rock City in Nottingham. It was my first gig. seeing them again with my brother was so special. I loved every moment and I'm so grateful to my brother for subbing me the ticket last year when I couldn't afford it. Love you Bro.
i already have my tickets to see them on this tour later this year, it will be my first time seeing them live, and now im even more excited for the show, hopefully my experience will be as great as yours.
Great video. I’ve been a Green Day fan since I was 14 in 2009, they’ve been my favourite band since then. It’s so good to see them on top of their game right now. Saviors is their best album since 2009 maybe 2004. Can’t wait until they come to Australia 🇦🇺
Your review sums up exactly how I felt after seeing them in Dublin. To hear American Idiot in full, was an almost indescribable experience. It was the first punk/rock album I listened to and from that went on to get into heavier and heavier music but American Idiot will always be that album that put me on the path of rock and metal music. Dookie was amazing too but the nostalgia I have for American Idiot is just measurable. Letterbomb is also my absolute favourite Green Day song, it is just an absolutely certified banger.
First time seeing them and took my mum. Honestly I wish I could relive it over and over again. It has reignited my love for American Idiot - I felt 17 again.
im so glad im still 15 and i got to experience green day in their best shape ever. It's crazy how they can play 2h and 20/30 mins on every single date of the tour without making any mistakes at 50 years old. The show in milano was a BLAST
They were much better 25 years ago. Sorry. They are nothing compared to what they were. I saw them on their Dookie tour 94. Before they were political activists and writing thousands of horrible songs
Green Day announced this tour with the playing of DOOKIE and AMERICAN IDIOT in its entirety. They are the first to play two full albums entirely, and I’m so upset I did not catch them in the US, but yeah this is MONUMENTAL 🔥🤘🏻 Dookie for me is an insane album, a pivotal point in my life and my music pedigree, super happy you got to see that entirely played. I have seen Green Day 12 times since 1998 and I’ve heard all the songs from both albums 😊 Really happy you went Steve and so happy to know you are a big fan and had “the time of your life” ❤️
Definitely not the first to don’t albums in full, I saw New Found Glory play Self Titled and Sticks & Stones in full in Cardiff in 2017, then Sticks & Stones and Catalyst in full in Bristol on the same tour as they were changing it every night
I think they announced it a bit after the tour announcement. I remember saying to my partner when it got announced; "it wouldn't surprise me if they play American Idiot and Dookie in full with the milestones" then a few weeks later they announced it. So glad I got to see this show.
I assume you mean it's the first time they've done it, because they're definitely not the first band ever to play multiple albums live. One that comes to my head immediately is Between the Buried and Me, who have done it multiple times, but you could definitely go further back and find others.
Incredible show. My first Green Day gig but I've seen many of the great stadium bands over the years. This show was easily up there as one of the best I've been to!
I remember Green day touring proper small scene venues before along with the Dookie album they was put on the road opening for Die Toten Hosen. So the german bands huge pull combined with MTV & Viva propelled them to have the same pull just international. So conquering Europe had to do with good management and booking work too, not just the Band being stardom material. But like Nirvana they turned from proper Underground into everybodies darling within a year or so. Must be such a deep game changer on the whole range of that magnitute of Experience.
Thanks for taking me along with your experience, I've been a GD fan since their first album... yup... that old ha so this was fun to watch and your take on this cool music
This was my first ever concert and I loved it! I have the bug now and cannot wait to go see more live bands! Will 100% have to see Green Day live again at some point! Loved Green Day my whole life and it was amazing to see them perform at Wembley! Was the best day of my life!
I was there. It was my 6th Green Day show too, 19 years since my first at Milton Keynes. It was an incredible night. You're right that they do a lot of the same stuff at their shows, but honestly I don't care- I'm just happy to be there in their presence, and in that energy. I promised myself when I saw them that first time that I would see them at least once for each new tour. Though I would LOVE to see them at a secret/ intimate gig.
I think the repetition of their usual tricks is iconic because it is what makes them Green Day. Fans on stage, heeeeyyyyy ohhhhhhs, Billie Joe’s dramatic speeches, Tre’s weird antics and Mike Dirnting away, Time of your life at the end, the drunk bunny 🐰 It’s all just “them” and they’re so genuine, authentic and talented 💚
I was there, it was my first ever concert and I’ve already booked another one for Halloween. Best experience I’ve ever had!! Got a new t shirt and the lighting was incredible. Defo going next time they come! Although tickets for slipknot are sold out so next concert is sum 41! Happy anniversary DOOKIE and American Idiot 🔥
I was at Wembley and it was incredible. They were awesome , the crowd were the best and when it was all lit up it was stunning. Loved it. I will never forget that night. ❤
I so agree! This video has perfectly captured what I thought! I didn’t go, as I live in another country but it’s amazing how much. They play with not only quality, but quantity. And they are truely amazing guys.
I went to the show in Glasgow at Bellahouston Park. Best day of my life! My first ever international trip outside of Sweden. I am so happy I made the trip🥰 I've seen them twice before in Gothenburg and Stockholm back in 2017 during RevRad tour. Wanted to see them again in 2022 but I listened to someone elses advice about keeping my money (so glad that that person is no longer a big part of my life!) + that I also needed to work. I can definitely say that Bellahouston Park was so much more amazing than any other concert I've ever been to! I was not center of stage but I was all the way to the left and at barricade amongst 35000 people and it was so cool! And I got a pick from a guy named Sam in their crew (he saw my sign) during Minority😭 I'd do it all over again if I could. The trip left me broke. But, anything for my SAVIORS❣ Next year they've kept me alive for a decade and I couldn't be more thankful😭❤🩹
I was there! And also at the Isle of Wight Festival the week before - my first two Green Day concerts and hopefully not the last. A wonderful night. I was euphoric. Oh and they did All By Myself at the IoW as well, but I think doing it live is a new thing for this tour.
I went to the 10th, 11th and 12th (Rock am Ring, Hamburg and Arnhem) Green Day show this year. I always said they never can top their shows from 2009/2010 shows. They never disappointed me live even after these tours. You know what? With this tour, they even topped all their previous tour! It was the best tour I‘ve ever been to! And I‘m pretty sure they will top themselves again with their upcoming tour, because Green Day they always bring out new ideas and still giving their best even in their 50s and I‘m happy for them most of the reviews are positive because they deserved it! I can‘t wait to see them again and already miss them! Greetings from Germany, such a good review :)
I agree with everything you say! I saw Green Day in Milan and I had so much fun that I had to go back and see them in Wembley. I would go again to another gig of this same setlist if I had the opportunity!
Oh man. Greenday were my absolute formative band growing up, and Dookie THE album. So disappointed I didn’t get to see this. I don’t normally watch videos like this, but your enthusiasm was super infectious- really sold the emotion.
The year was 1994. I have a vivid memory of me sitting in math class holding onto my walkman and my Dookie cassette tape, just waiting for the bell to ring so I can listen to my new album. « Longview » was my jam. This was the beginning of new-wave punk and I was so excited about this new sound. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine the impact they would have 30 years later…
I’ve been trying to watch greenday live for about 10 years and have bought tickets 6 times but because of exams and injuries missed out and to finally see them on this tour was the best night of my life
I’m insanely excited to see them live in September, Dookie and American Idiot are the two albums that got me into Green Day and now I’m gonna be able to see both live
Going to see them in Toronto when their NA leg of the tour kicks off. It'll be my 4th Greenday show, and they've all bee unreal. Each time they played well over 2.5 hours. If you like even a little Greenday (they're my favourite band of all time) it's well worth it
I seen them in dublin , I love both those albums ( whatshername is my favourite green day song) they played a good few of the new songs aswell but hearing dookie and American idiot both live really boosted my love for those albums
This was my second time seeing them, and the whole show just took my breath away! It was absolutely phenomenal, it was definitely worth the 19 year gap between shows 😅 but though seriously everything was just top notch, and left me walking away at the end of the night with tears in my eyes. I can't wait to see them again
I was there too, agree with pretty much everything you said. Especially about the click, you could tell they weren't playing to a click and it was great to have that live rawness. Dookie also comes from an era when albums sounded more raw and had a lot less production and polish so for them to replicate that feel live really worked. Also as a guy in my mid-30s, I can totally relate to the slog of standing there for almost 3 hours lol, could barely walk afterwards. It was great fun though and the whole show flew by.
I never knew Greenday had 7 to 10 min songs! I gotta go back and check them out! December 8th is my birthday just cool you had your first concert on a day i celebrate as well as a day that will always be important to you is cool 🤘
Manchester was unbelievable! First time seeing them live. They absolutely lived up to the bullet in a bible dvd they released and not just cos I caught a stick from Tré before they even started. Hopefully it’s not their last tour cos I’d love to see them again
I saw them in Glasgow on the 25th of June, it was mental! I was supoosed to see them in 2017 but they pulled out last minute, so needless to say, when I heard they were playing Bellahouston Park, I just had to go! They got a fan onstage to play Dilemma with them, as well as the fan onstage during Know Your Enemy, which was fantastic! And the fact they did Dookie and American Idiot all the way through was just mind blowing! The set dressing with the mushroom cloud and the hand grenade was gorgeous and was complimented very nicely by the pyro. Even managed to catch some of the confetti shot out during St. Jimmy. This was well worth the seven year wait, finally got to heal my inner fourteen year old. Thank you Green Day for giving me the chance to live the memory I missed out on years ago!
I was at Bellahouston too for this. I’ve seen plenty of anniversary tours, but two albums (two incredible albums) both being played with the same energy as if they had just come out was wonderful. This one will live long in the memory. Shout out to Nothing But Thieves too for supporting. They were fantastic
Dude!!! That’s amazing. First concert twins 🤜🏻🤛🏻 Yeah I have enjoyed Bouncing Souls since that gig although their early material is not that accessible so took some getting into haha. But it was my first gig so they have a special place I my heart too.
First time seeing Green Day was in 2006 during their American idiot tour. Best show ever! They’re still killing it til today, seeing them in September!
It was one of the most amazing nights of my life. I have been waiting to see them for the past 20 years. They totally blew me away. I was absolutely wrecked the next day though. I’m 41, so god knows how Green Day did it lol. Love them. 💚💚💚
Green Day quite literally loves rock and roll. It is their life and they talk about how eternally grateful they are to be able to do this. They will never slack or play a half-ass show.
Omg thanks for this you have summed this up perfectly. When people ask how it was I can just send them this! One of the highlights of my life it was honestly. I didn’t yawn once by the way and I’m almost 54😂
I've seen Green Day 3 times live. BST Hyde Park 2017 on my birthday, Hella Mega Tour 2022 and Wembley. The later is my favourate gig out of the 3! Although my nan ringing me to wish me happy birthday while I was in the merch queue and then said merch queue spontaniously doing a rendition of "Happy Birthday" when they clocked what my chat was about I'll never forget.
I've only had the chance to see Green Day once, in 2005, for the American Idiot tour. I still consider it one of the best shows I've ever been to. Looks like seeing them in September will be just as awesome. I can't wait.
It was the most awesome show I’ve ever been to. The longest, perhaps, also. It. Was. Fantastic. Never ever have I been able to sing along ALL SONGS in a concert.
The Contortionist did this with their 2022 tour with Rivers Of Nihil, where they played their Exoplanet and Language albums in their entirety, and Rivers Of Nihil played their Work album in its entirety, and I would love to see other bands do this as well. While I’d prefer if bands with larger discographies include stuff from their other albums as well, it’s still pretty cool so see bands play an album in its entirety. Between the Buried And Me have been doing a bunch of full album tours lately, their most recent tour being 2-date shows per venue where they play their Colors album on the first day, and their Colors II album the second day. They also had another tour where they played their Great Misdirect album in its entirety, along with one song from each of their other albums, and another tour where they played their Future Sequence album and nothing else. I saw Green Day when they played at the House Of Blues, and they played their newest album in its entirety, half of Dookie (including All By Myself) and half of American Idiot, and one song from Warning.
I WAS THERE! First Green Day concert I’ve ever been to, and my daughters first ever concert. Got into Green Day when American Idiot came out, and I was about 12 years old. I had obviously heard other songs like Longview, Basket Case, but never really thought about it too much being only very young. It sounds cliche, but American Idiot really did change music for me forever, the way I listened and sought out new music, and my tastes for rock and punk music going forward. It was an amazing time and my daughter cried so much with excitement when they came out on stage (I also started crying 😂) a beautiful moment I will never forget.
i’m 13 and i’ve never been to a concert before, so when i found out that green say was playing dookie and ai in their entirety i freaked out, i told my parents and they all bought tickets for us. i’m so excited to see green day play those albums and to see the smashing pumpkins and rancid
I was at wembley aswell, i was in a state of euphoria the whole time, ive been to so many great gigs, small venues to big venues, first time seeing green day (32) been waiting a long time and honestly green day at wembley was something special that i wasnt expecting, 100% this experience with keep coming back to me and bring a smile to my face every time. P.s. Time of your life was the song that truly kicked off my acoustic guitar playing and seeing it performed live, words cant describe.
i’ve always known green day was a fantastic live band, but people don’t realize how great they actually are even in their 50s. so many bands are washed up, but green day still got it & got better with time. such a class act
I like greenday buttttt imagine your grandfather coming out dressed up with make up on its a little weird to see them .. manson . And others at that age . You would think your grandparents lost it if they did that as much as ya wanna say it would be awesome. not really
Except this put their ridiculous political views anymore 😂, they are supposed to be against the system, now they are dnc shils
yup. i remember the Pop Disaster Tour in 2002 was the proving ground that their shows are still worth going to. while Blink-182 was the main event then, Green Day just proved that you can experience the fervor of a punk rock show (more specifically the 924 Gilman Street venue's vibes) when they ascend the stage

Defo going next time they come! Although tickets for slipknot are sold out so next concert is sum 41! Happy anniversary DOOKIE and American Idiot 🔥
That pretty much sums up the night I had last Saturday. I don't think Green Day will top that ever. What a moment it was. Great review.
I was at Wembley and it was incredible. They were awesome , the crowd were the best and when it was all lit up it was stunning.
Loved it. I will never forget that night. ❤
I so agree! This video has perfectly captured what I thought! I didn’t go, as I live in another country but it’s amazing how much. They play with not only quality, but quantity. And they are truely amazing guys.
I went to the show in Glasgow at Bellahouston Park. Best day of my life!
My first ever international trip outside of Sweden. I am so happy I made the trip🥰
I've seen them twice before in Gothenburg and Stockholm back in 2017 during RevRad tour.
Wanted to see them again in 2022 but I listened to someone elses advice about keeping my money (so glad that that person is no longer a big part of my life!) + that I also needed to work.
I can definitely say that Bellahouston Park was so much more amazing than any other concert I've ever been to! I was not center of stage but I was all the way to the left and at barricade amongst 35000 people and it was so cool! And I got a pick from a guy named Sam in their crew (he saw my sign) during Minority😭
I'd do it all over again if I could. The trip left me broke. But, anything for my SAVIORS❣
Next year they've kept me alive for a decade and I couldn't be more thankful😭❤🩹
I was there! And also at the Isle of Wight Festival the week before - my first two Green Day concerts and hopefully not the last. A wonderful night. I was euphoric.
Oh and they did All By Myself at the IoW as well, but I think doing it live is a new thing for this tour.
I went to the 10th, 11th and 12th (Rock am Ring, Hamburg and Arnhem) Green Day show this year. I always said they never can top their shows from 2009/2010 shows. They never disappointed me live even after these tours. You know what? With this tour, they even topped all their previous tour! It was the best tour I‘ve ever been to! And I‘m pretty sure they will top themselves again with their upcoming tour, because Green Day they always bring out new ideas and still giving their best even in their 50s and I‘m happy for them most of the reviews are positive because they deserved it! I can‘t wait to see them again and already miss them!
Greetings from Germany, such a good review :)
I agree with everything you say! I saw Green Day in Milan and I had so much fun that I had to go back and see them in Wembley. I would go again to another gig of this same setlist if I had the opportunity!
I was there and I loved it! ❤
Lol… just 6 times??! 😂. Great review. Those guys r amazing
Oh man. Greenday were my absolute formative band growing up, and Dookie THE album. So disappointed I didn’t get to see this. I don’t normally watch videos like this, but your enthusiasm was super infectious- really sold the emotion.
I was there, and it was one of the best nights of my life. I still can't believe that I was lucky enough to experience it!
The year was 1994. I have a vivid memory of me sitting in math class holding onto my walkman and my Dookie cassette tape, just waiting for the bell to ring so I can listen to my new album. « Longview » was my jam. This was the beginning of new-wave punk and I was so excited about this new sound. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine the impact they would have 30 years later…
Oh gosh! That’s awesome 🤘🏻
I saw them in Hamburg, Germany on June 11th. They were amazing :) !!!
Such a phenomenal set list!
I was there! It was my 5th Green Day show, with my first being in 2000 or 2001 for the Warning tour ☺️
I’ve been trying to watch greenday live for about 10 years and have bought tickets 6 times but because of exams and injuries missed out and to finally see them on this tour was the best night of my life
I’m insanely excited to see them live in September, Dookie and American Idiot are the two albums that got me into Green Day and now I’m gonna be able to see both live
I was there absolutely amazing , what a show, 🎉🎉🎉🎉 brilliant band,
twas my first concert after being a fan since 7 years old (thanks dad) lol. 22 now and that day rocked my soul to the core.
That’s so cool 🤘🏻
Was such a great show!
I was at Old Trafford cricket ground in Manchester for this show. Once in a lifetime opportunity 😊
Going to see them in Toronto when their NA leg of the tour kicks off. It'll be my 4th Greenday show, and they've all bee unreal. Each time they played well over 2.5 hours. If you like even a little Greenday (they're my favourite band of all time) it's well worth it
I seen them in dublin , I love both those albums ( whatshername is my favourite green day song) they played a good few of the new songs aswell but hearing dookie and American idiot both live really boosted my love for those albums
Finally seeing someone actually mention Letterbomb!!! Getting to hear that one live in Arnhem felt so special!
@@samduymelinck such a great song
I'm going August 15 to see them I can't wait
This was my second time seeing them, and the whole show just took my breath away! It was absolutely phenomenal, it was definitely worth the 19 year gap between shows 😅 but though seriously everything was just top notch, and left me walking away at the end of the night with tears in my eyes. I can't wait to see them again
Was at Wembley- absolutely loved it.
I was there too, agree with pretty much everything you said. Especially about the click, you could tell they weren't playing to a click and it was great to have that live rawness. Dookie also comes from an era when albums sounded more raw and had a lot less production and polish so for them to replicate that feel live really worked. Also as a guy in my mid-30s, I can totally relate to the slog of standing there for almost 3 hours lol, could barely walk afterwards. It was great fun though and the whole show flew by.
@@punkstjimmyF1 haha yeah buddy! Tired legs: unite! 🤝 And totally, Dookie live sounded absolutely brilliant for every song.
One of the best nights of my life for sure! had an absolute blast seeing my favorite album of all time American Idiot in full
I never knew Greenday had 7 to 10 min songs! I gotta go back and check them out! December 8th is my birthday just cool you had your first concert on a day i celebrate as well as a day that will always be important to you is cool 🤘
HELL YEAH. I’m seeing them in San Francisco. Hopefully we’ll get a encore.
Manchester was unbelievable! First time seeing them live. They absolutely lived up to the bullet in a bible dvd they released and not just cos I caught a stick from Tré before they even started. Hopefully it’s not their last tour cos I’d love to see them again
I saw them in Glasgow on the 25th of June, it was mental! I was supoosed to see them in 2017 but they pulled out last minute, so needless to say, when I heard they were playing Bellahouston Park, I just had to go! They got a fan onstage to play Dilemma with them, as well as the fan onstage during Know Your Enemy, which was fantastic! And the fact they did Dookie and American Idiot all the way through was just mind blowing! The set dressing with the mushroom cloud and the hand grenade was gorgeous and was complimented very nicely by the pyro. Even managed to catch some of the confetti shot out during St. Jimmy. This was well worth the seven year wait, finally got to heal my inner fourteen year old. Thank you Green Day for giving me the chance to live the memory I missed out on years ago!
I was at Bellahouston too for this. I’ve seen plenty of anniversary tours, but two albums (two incredible albums) both being played with the same energy as if they had just come out was wonderful. This one will live long in the memory. Shout out to Nothing But Thieves too for supporting. They were fantastic
@@KingFunkinweren't they just? It was just mad!
That’s nuts, that was my first concert too. December 8th 2000, Bouncing Souls supported! My favourite band ever, can’t beleive that was 24 years ago
Dude!!! That’s amazing. First concert twins 🤜🏻🤛🏻 Yeah I have enjoyed Bouncing Souls since that gig although their early material is not that accessible so took some getting into haha. But it was my first gig so they have a special place I my heart too.
Saw them in Glasgow it was unbelievable
First time seeing Green Day was in 2006 during their American idiot tour. Best show ever! They’re still killing it til today, seeing them in September!
They’ve played All By Myself many times live before. The string arrangement for it is what made it different and interesting.
I am going to see them in DC later this month. I saw them perform Dookie entirely in Belgrade in 2014. I can’t wait!
Cant wait to see them in Toronto Aug 1st. With my son.
Can't wait to see them here in Philly in August!
It was one of the most amazing nights of my life. I have been waiting to see them for the past 20 years. They totally blew me away. I was absolutely wrecked the next day though. I’m 41, so god knows how Green Day did it lol. Love them. 💚💚💚
@@siobhan28483 haha! So glad you finally got to see them. What a show!
Green Day quite literally loves rock and roll. It is their life and they talk about how eternally grateful they are to be able to do this. They will never slack or play a half-ass show.
I was there! The show was amazing, I was to the left side and I enjoyed the show so much, it was my first green day show and my second show ever!
@@haribalsac1 oh wow! That’s a phenomenal 2nd show!
Yeah mush it was a great gig, it's my fav concert I've been to, ahead of Muse in Plymouth 2023 which was awesome also!
Omg thanks for this you have summed this up perfectly. When people ask how it was I can just send them this! One of the highlights of my life it was honestly. I didn’t yawn once by the way and I’m almost 54😂
🫂
I've seen Green Day 3 times live. BST Hyde Park 2017 on my birthday, Hella Mega Tour 2022 and Wembley. The later is my favourate gig out of the 3! Although my nan ringing me to wish me happy birthday while I was in the merch queue and then said merch queue spontaniously doing a rendition of "Happy Birthday" when they clocked what my chat was about I'll never forget.
Haha that’s brilliant
I was at this gig but couldn’t see the stage as my seat was at such a sharp angle!
I've only had the chance to see Green Day once, in 2005, for the American Idiot tour. I still consider it one of the best shows I've ever been to. Looks like seeing them in September will be just as awesome. I can't wait.
I went to my first ever concert which was the green day held in bellahouston park and I really had the time of my life, it was an amazing concert
It was the most awesome show I’ve ever been to. The longest, perhaps, also. It. Was. Fantastic. Never ever have I been able to sing along ALL SONGS in a concert.
The Contortionist did this with their 2022 tour with Rivers Of Nihil, where they played their Exoplanet and Language albums in their entirety, and Rivers Of Nihil played their Work album in its entirety, and I would love to see other bands do this as well. While I’d prefer if bands with larger discographies include stuff from their other albums as well, it’s still pretty cool so see bands play an album in its entirety. Between the Buried And Me have been doing a bunch of full album tours lately, their most recent tour being 2-date shows per venue where they play their Colors album on the first day, and their Colors II album the second day. They also had another tour where they played their Great Misdirect album in its entirety, along with one song from each of their other albums, and another tour where they played their Future Sequence album and nothing else. I saw Green Day when they played at the House Of Blues, and they played their newest album in its entirety, half of Dookie (including All By Myself) and half of American Idiot, and one song from Warning.
I WAS THERE!
First Green Day concert I’ve ever been to, and my daughters first ever concert.
Got into Green Day when American Idiot came out, and I was about 12 years old. I had obviously heard other songs like Longview, Basket Case, but never really thought about it too much being only very young.
It sounds cliche, but American Idiot really did change music for me forever, the way I listened and sought out new music, and my tastes for rock and punk music going forward.
It was an amazing time and my daughter cried so much with excitement when they came out on stage (I also started crying 😂) a beautiful moment I will never forget.
Ahhh that’s so sweet to hear. How cool for you 💙
I hope there will be a well produced Netflix or dvd version of that show!
i’m 13 and i’ve never been to a concert before, so when i found out that green say was playing dookie and ai in their entirety i freaked out, i told my parents and they all bought tickets for us. i’m so excited to see green day play those albums and to see the smashing pumpkins and rancid
I was at wembley aswell, i was in a state of euphoria the whole time, ive been to so many great gigs, small venues to big venues, first time seeing green day (32) been waiting a long time and honestly green day at wembley was something special that i wasnt expecting, 100% this experience with keep coming back to me and bring a smile to my face every time.
P.s. Time of your life was the song that truly kicked off my acoustic guitar playing and seeing it performed live, words cant describe.
I went to London from germany for 3 days to see Green Day and it was so extremely worth it, incredible show and very beautiful city :)
@@huearolo9790 🇩🇪🤘🏻
they're coming to my neck of the woods in August so I'm excited and hoping the show will be like this down to the inflatable decorations
i was there and it was something different and it was my first time seeing green day and im not disappointed at all
saw them here on marlay park a week ago, they played almost 30 songs, standing in line raining waiting for 5hrs and it was all worth it 🎉
