I was looking for this comment
You could but that pos doesn’t care
WHO?
@@tomlund4951 the rapper that let all of those people get stampeded and killed at his concert like summer or two ago at that astroworld festival
@@Shade_razor-79 I know but the way it should be?…. Uh WHO?
Bless all artists who care about their fans.
I was there! I think they stopped the show twice due to incidents in the crowd, nice to see a frontman doing this sort of stuff, especially on the scale of Wembley Stadium.
@@guy8029 Facts. Billie Joe is a lot of things, but disrespectful of his fans is NOT one of them.
Twice? I was there too but I don't remember a second time
@@timewarproductions4661 I’m sure it was during another American Idiot song, I want to say possibly Jesus of Suburbia, but I can’t say for certain.
A write up of the gig says;
“Green Day played their biggest ever London show to a sold out Wembley Stadium crowd, but had to stop the gig twice to allow an injured fan to get help.”
Hope you had as good a time as me and my family did 🤟🏻
There was another incident earlier yes, might’ve been in dookie or early in American idiot not sure
People can say what they want about Billie but he's one of the most selfless and caring frontmen out there.
Isn’t that normal for frontmen to do that? I mean who watched people die? Wouldn’t that be an official crime and he could go to prison if he would have seen it and watched someone die?

sad to say that his son is the opposite and a complete mess and jerk.
He cursed God so his ass is numbered .
Roger Daltrey the lead singer from The Who always asks fans if they are ok. He hit my hair once when he lost control swinging his microphone. Three times he came over to ask if i was ok 🎤
At a benefit show with other bands The Who were on last, the fans of the last band on wouldn't move & let us Who fans stand at the front of the stage. The Who came on started singing & in seconds Roger stopped singing, called for all of the house lights to be put on & told the security staff at the front of the venue to go. Because the fans from the other bands had broken bottles & were threatening to slash us, the security staff wouldn't let us get away & literally kept pushing us back into the other fans. I saw a hand come down & heard someone telling me to grab their hand & they would pull me up. I looked & it was Roger, who pulled me onstage to get me away from being attacked by the other bands fans. As he pulled me up i noticed all of The Who were pulling fans to safety & then their roadies helped. Roger told us all to sit on the stage floor next to the band & they would protect us. Roger then got back on his microphone & told all the security staff & fans of the previous band to go to the back. Once it was just Who fans left at the front The Who started to oplay again with about a dozen of us fans sat at their feet. Then Roger stopped the show again after a couple of songs & asked the front row of fans to move back, they did. Then he said to us sat on the stage we could go back to being infront of the stage again. The Who ran over time & played till past 1am
Dude, memory of a lifetime 😁 I've seen GNR, Megadeth, Halestorm, Foo Fighters and Zac Brown Band all here in Seattle but you have me beat hands down ‼️🤘🎸🎵🎶🎼🖖
@@BillKrayer12thMan I'd love to of seen GNR. Seattle always sounds like it has a unique atmosphere. The Who are very protective of their fans. They hate security guards in front of the stage because they want us fans in front of them. If after a couple of songs Roger could see security were forcing us to sit down in our seats he would stop the show & tell security to move away from the front & let us move forward. If security staff wouldn't move Roger would swing his microphone, hit them with it & then personally tell them to move 🎤
@usaturnuranus
Look up "Who concert disaster 1979" and you will understand why they would be concerned about fan safety. Tragic.
@usaturnuranus
I was writing about before the Cincinnati disaster concert in 1979 when 11 Who fans tragically died outside the coliseum before the concert had started & 26 were injured. The Who were not told about what had happened outside the venue till after their performance.
@@Wizzz2288It was the "Not In This Lifetime" tour and I got the ticket for free 😁 and even though I was up in the "nosebleeds"(directly under the new Seahawks Super Bowl championship banner, I was on the stage end of then CenturyLink Field, now Lumen Field, and the video screens helped. Awesome show; look up "Wish You Were Here/Layla jam Seattle" and you'll see what I mean 😁 Rock on ‼️🤘👏✌️🖖🎸🎵🎶🎼
@@Wizzz2288 It wouldn't let me edit my reply. I forgot to mention it was 5 days before my 43rd birthday ‼️😁
“I check my vital signs…” wait, stop 😂
Pure poetry
I noticed this too, haha
Me and my mate fell over in FOD and it was really nice of him to stop to see if we were okay, we were buzzing 🤣🤣
2:21 your welcome! Time is precious!
Did you mean to say that listening to a great Green Day song is a waste of time?
@@isabelmauricio6394 no - just that a video of a Green Day song taken on a mobile phone from far away is not the best way to listen to do it. So, yeah, I appreciate that timestamp. That's the part that made me click.
I was there at Wembley and I was one of the best nights of me life
I went to see them in Glasgow and it was amazing.
yeah? 30 years ago
are you irish?
What was the second best night of your life the night you discovered lucky charms
Ayyyyy-ohhhh
Billie Joe seems to genuinely have grown to be a caring human, which is so good to see. I remember seeing that video of him doing a dropkick into the crowd, but it seems those times are over, which I love to see. I’m not that big of a Green Day fan but you can’t deny Billie Joe is an awesome frontman for this
I mean he did the dropkick into a dude harassing a girl, he’s always been kind and caring, he’s just sober and more responsible now
Yeah I was gonna say the same thing, it wasn’t just some random dropkick. Extreme maybe but the intentions are the same.
He did drop kick into a crowd but that was cause a guy was harassing a girl.
I swear this man ages in reverse😂😂
The power of make up my friend.
If I had his money...I'd look like Cher too😂😂@@rusdihamdy655
LONDON CALLING 😂😂 what a legend
He cares about his fans. That's so good compared to other artists who are shit faced on stage. Like smash mouth
That stuff is so lame. It's fine depending on the gig and your age, but when you're in your 50s wtf are you doing?
@@djjazzyjeff1232seriously super cringe seeing drunk dudes on stage. It literally ruined the replacements reputation
@@coreycann6751 For real dude. Also it just makes performing SO difficult. I'm a working musician myself so now I get off on nailing my parts instead of getting drunk during the gig, because I'm not 22 anymore..
@@djjazzyjeff1232 same. I used to be a musician but am taking a break to get sober. I’ve been an alcoholic for years. I’m 34 and burnt so many bridges. I’d get drunk and forget how to play songs at gigs. Total humiliation. Nobody wants to see that shit. It pushes friends and band mates away too
@@djjazzyjeff1232 it’s funny you said 22 because that was literally when it all started for me. Went from booze to much stronger drugs. I was wasting $1500 a month on my drug of choice and now that I am sober I’ve bought so many guitars. And the whole time I thought I looked cool but literally everyone I know said I looked stupid as hell. Being messed up on stage seemed cool back in the day but most of those bands high and drunk constantly were doing cringe and illegal stuff besides drugs… even Bowie was a “pdf file”. Sorry I’m going on a rant but look up the interview with Bowie and iggy literally bragging about sharing a 13 year old girl and abandoning her at an airport. Fucken crazy what these high weirdos got away with in the 1970/
Seen Green Day live and they sound exactly the same as you here on their records - musical geniuses
The opposite of the Offspring where Dexter sounds good in the studio, but is horrible live
I was there. Billie is such a good human being which is why he’s my idol
Hes actually an unhnged libturd crybaby...
I didn't know Green Day was so huge. Especially all these years later.
Same here. Insane! They don't do these numbers in the US do they? I saw them for free on the UC Berkeley campus in 92!
@@haysfordays I really don't know that much about them. I know they were really big in the 90s I guess it was? I'm not really a fan so I've never gone to see them. I was just really surprised that they could fill stadiums to capacity like this. I mean they're good but there's nothing mind blowing about them.
@@EM-mw2qr yeah, agreed!
Oh they been selling out stadiums for years. Some of the festivals they’ve played at are massive.
@@squarebarrel Wow! I can't honestly figure out why.
Ironic that he’s singing about checking vital signs and then someone gets sick or hurt. Hope the person is okay. Kudos to the crowd for not getting pissed while the crew handled the emergency.
And here’s your proof that Green Day is totally live (if you needed any) - no backing tracks needed to sound amazing or stop/start on a dime!
Are you kidding? Did you not hear the tremolo guitar keep playing after they stopped?
why would they get pissed? thats fucked up.
@@djjazzyjeff1232that isn’t a backing track that’s a sample 💀💀💀
@@abox8362isn't that the other gutiarist
@@abox8362 Oh really? How do you think a sample gets played over the speakers? THROUGH A BACKING TRACK you dunce 😂😂
It's so great to have a band sound as good in concert as they do on their album. I've never seen Green Day but this makes me want to.
All the way back in ‘95 Brixton Academy, he went to front of the stage and had a go at the photographers asking them to move for the the people who paid to see.
Remember him saying “ Fuck you? No fuck you , move” and promoted the whole place to shout “Fuck Yoooo”.
They weren’t a big as they are now and place was half full . Cost £8.00 a ticket, think that’s $6.50 .
Damn! Saw them back in the day open for other bands. Certainly genuine and grateful. I seriously had no idea they were this huge though. Wow!
Imagine being the past out person and seeing this later 😅
Imagine that fool Travis Scott seeing this!!
It happened at Manchester aswell, 3 or 4 songs into it
Who knew it was easier to administer medical aid when there isn't loud music blasting in the stadium. Today I learned.
yo lo vi el 1 de junio en Madrid y aún estoy en una nube con Green Day
Sept. 25 in Portland OR- we are the show before the finally in their hometown
You were close to us!
Nice job! Professional.
Billy's a dam good human being.
Billie Joe is such a cool guy. I can't wait to see them in August.
Good for them! I saw Joe Walsh do the same thing.
Bro I was at this concert/tour and it was my first one, love how he actually cares about the fans.
they had they stop during Manchester too.
Leading by example & caring for others' well-being; this is what it means to be a good human.
its written in our punk/metal blood... When some one is down you help them up and look out for each other!
He checked his vital signs...👀
God's Favorite Band. 👍
God is a Venom fan
@@chriswakefield9538 Green Day is known as well as the God's Favorite Band, after their last greatest hits album. :)
@@RightFirework- Highly unlikely.
@@RightFirework who?
@@unclegus-vx7jc Green Day is known as.
was part of the rigging production in marlay park dublin, got tre's used drumsticks after he fucked em over his shoulder and they landed beside me in a flight case, then i got 3 of billys plectrums off the mic stand... what a band, if you havent seen them live its a absolute must they do not dissapoint
@@peakyfoknblinder174 omg, you are so kool!!!
He did what to his drum sticks?
I got one of tré’s drumsticks at that gig too, when he threw that bucket of them into the crowd at the end! Pretty sure he didn’t use the one I got, but still pretty sweet!
The power of the mic
someone teach him a knock-knock joke!
Init. I was expecting a "London you" when everyone shouted "London who" not a funny joke but at least it would have been something!
🌊
I always wanted to go to a Green Day concert
I just stopped in for the humanity. Much respect, dude, that's how everybody should be, too.
Real human emotion has empathy..
Un super groupe, des supers musiciens et un chanteur adorable ! 💙🤍❤
dude i can see my arm and my phone recording the whole thing
Well the restart proves there is absolutely no backing or click tracks or anything.
The tremolo guitar part is a backing track, which is only played in verses. Tré (not sure if other members too) also has click on headphones. You can clearly hear the backing track stopping after the band at 2:21. After the restart they played without it, as it would have been very difficult to start it at the right timestamp. After the solo the backing track stops, as there's no tremolo part in the outro.
They have no monitors on stage, so they are using both click, backing and amp modelers now!
@@lakselv3768they do have monitors on stage. 2 in the front center and 1 on the cat walk.
Sorry, but Green Day uses backing tracks. There are sound guys that cut the tracks, the same way the lighting guys stop the lighting. You can clearly hear the tremolo among other effects are NOT live.
Jesus, don’t be stupid and I hope people stop liking your comments. It’s obvious there’s a click and backing tracks. You can hear the backing vocals
Class act. Definitely bless them who care and take action.
Awesome show at Wembley billie is the best ❤
It's insane to me that there are artists who will completely ignore when their fans have a clear medical emergency in the crowd and need help. When you're entertaining a crowd of people that adore you you should not only want to entertain them, but show that you care about them by making sure they get to leave the show alive
❤
love the guy❤
Wonderful 💥🖤💥
At 2.17 you can actually see one of the phone lights dissapearing at the spot where it happens.
💓
❤❤❤
It's around the 2:19 mark in the video.
Wow. He didn't do that back in 2002. It was my second time seeing Green Day, and a bunch of my friends passed out from heat exhaustion, in the front row. Had to be carried out and given water by the venue crew. It was at a really small venue with poor ventilation. But there's no way he didn't see what was happening 😅
Great band. Green Day were awesome at the 2023 Grey Cup Canadian Football League) (CFL) Championship game in Hamilton last November. Real live, real band, no lip sync.
What happened with this concert besides the music it's quiet there
I seen one of there concerts years ago The noise was deafening
i was there
Not a fan of their music but that was cool of him. great crowd for helping out too.
Billie is really good about this. It’s becoming the norm for this.
Very cool. Inspiring.
Class act ❤
Le meilleur groupe de rock, billie joe est un type super gentil....
He's so brave
Yes Daddy Billy 👏 Caring king 👑😅
I think Phineas and Ferb creators were big Green Day fans
Damn Billie doesn’t even sound the same anymore😭
CLASS ACT!!!@
Is that Billie's kid up there too?
I was front standing and the acoustics inside wembley aren't as good as the o2. Some of the riffs were hard to make out.
Like RIGHT in the front? That's not ideal for sound, not even close.
@@djjazzyjeff1232 not at the very front. But in the front standing section. Done the same at other venues but wembley was off. Maybe because it's open air. Still a great night though!
@@Ackbar_its_a_trap in the middle? Thats tough, they have center fill speakers but the sound guys can’t really mix them very well they’re more concerned about the main PA system. I too have been disappointed before with a big concert like that because of a similar thing
@@djjazzyjeff1232 yep it must be a thing. There were 60k fans there which is circa 3 nights at the o2. So I get why mega bands do stadiums otherwise they'd be touring the UK for weeks.
@@Ackbar_its_a_trap You got it. Yeah it's definitely a thing, I know a little about productions but not on this scale, but there's almost a critical mass that you reach when a concert becomes TOO big, that it almost CAN'T sound good because there's not getting around the laws of physics. This show looked like it was along those lines. I saw Metallica in 2018 and was thoroughly disappointed in the sound as well.
They cut the sound before he said stop. I'm surprised he didn't blame it on the guy for not being vaccinated.
Awesome, thousands of people being patient for the wellbeing of one. Thank you to everyone for your selflessness. Beautiful Humanity.
Class Act....
I digress...Donald Trump? Now this is a crowd!! You've never had anything this big. Not even your inauguration. Love you, Green Day
What was the matter there?
Good dude.
i walk to burger king then i walk back home from burger king
Green day deserves alot of respects!🎉❤
Not a big fan of Green Day anymore but I will always respect him. I'm always happy to see artists looking out for their fans.
Stand up guy....rare sight in fameland....
What’s your favorite video from this channel? I’m looking for recommendations!
Every gig nowadays theres a stoppage for medical or a plea by the artist to calm down. Is the artist now liable for the attendees health or something? Like from an insurance POV
Have you ever been near death? I've seen the reaper, kicked him in the stones, said it ain't my time to go. (stole the last bit from King of the Hill, but yeah, I been near death)
Seriously, grow a heart. This life is scary.
@@Suhi254 i simply mean it happens a lot more now. Is it a case of gigs are more family friendly now or are artists liable for the attendees safety?
@@04mdsimps Fair enough, but I do think Billie is just a good guy at heart.
@@04mdsimpsit’s just down to society and the fallout of the travis Scott incident. Plus they’re just people who don’t wanna see any of their fans in difficulty!
@@04mdsimps whether they are liable or not, most bands give a shit about their fans. Don't forget that some bands look out on a combination of the same regular faces in the front row at many of their gigs regardless of where they are playing.
Today was gonna be the day but they'll never throw it back to you...
Lol nice
@@djjazzyjeff1232I don’t get the wonderwall connection?
@@haunter4708 Wembley Stadium is in London
@@djjazzyjeff1232 I’m aware… 😂
@@haunter4708 That’s it. Thats the connection.
You can't stop a show every time someone passes out because you'd be cutting off every other song. Nice to see Billie Joe at least trying to do the right thing! Back in the 90's, bands would just keep playing!
At some point back in the early 90s they were a straight-forward punk band. But then they got huge and turned into a pop group.
Ohhhh I thought it was going to be Billie crying about something
Playboi Carti and Travis Scott should take notes
This sort of thing is becoming common at lots of gigs. It gets more news stories and clicks on TH-cam so it gets added into lots of shows as a “bit”
Or maybe it's a real emergency situation that gets recorded because everyone has a phone and it's better to stop the show for a few minutes than to have someone die in the audience. It's put in as a bit for clicks. That's dumb.
I’ve wondered the same, it keeps happening over and over
What a load of cynical bullshit.
Must of been an iPhone. The quality is awful.
no offense, but why are people getting turnt to Boulevard of Broken Dreams to the point of injury 😭
BJA has a giant head.
man the crowds in shows like this are npcs
First comment! :U
Nice to see what i would literally expect any decent human to do?
There are no bigger dorks than green day dorks
Same Green Day/Billie Joe B.S. every show 😂😆 loved them in the early-mid 90's, now, just a self obsessed image routine
HOW TIME LIES???????????????????????????????? REALLY YOUR OWN DOWN LOVED IT ALL BACK THEN THE WORLD DOTH NOT CARE CALIFORNIA?????????????? SIR. RINGO YES BUT THE REST?????????????????????????????????DISTURBED?
So many empty seats
yeah ones not facing the stage. Wembley is a bowl. Anyone in those seats would struggle to even see the big screens.
