Went to the Green Day concert last night

It was in Holmdel, New Jersey. AFi was the opener, they only played for 30 minutes. I was a little worried about Green Day because of the length that AFI played. Green Day came on and played for almost 3 hours! New stuff, old stuff, and covers! Really awesome, I never saw them before so I didn't know what to expect. With the Blink-182 concert no one could come close to the stage, but with this concert there were kids up on the stage like 20!!! Billie pulled some kids up to sing and everything! Crazy shit, like Billie mooning the crowd and spaying the crowd with water. I got some pics in vids on my camera (it actually is in really good quality) if you want me to put it up. Sadly I wish I was a lot closer, but it was still a GREAT time! Anyone go to this one or going to any of their concerts?

That's the thing that makes both Green Day and Sum 41 a much better live band than blink. The actually interact with the crowd while blink tells them to yell fuck every once in a while.

You'd love Dropkick Murphys then, they invited a shit lots of people onto stage which I got on to sing their last song.

No shit? I think i've singed along to Skinhead on stage at least four times. The "I'm Shipping Up To Boston" fans aren't to many here so most people still know the song.

I saw them live last year when they came to Adelaide, Australia. Best concert of my life! They were extremely interactive and were shooting t-shirts, toilet paper and water into the crowd. Pretty much played for 3 hours straight as well.

I was originally 2 people back from the stage but during Jet's opening act, but I had to make a toilet stop thus losing my place :sosad:

Green Day really are the kings of live shows. Saw them in Florida and Manchester, two awesome shows which didn't seem rehearsed (in terms of what they're doing/saying).

lol no. blink-182 has such a different feel than green day and sum 41. yeah, sum and green day do let people on stage, but the on stage banter between mark and tom cannot be compared to that.

The banter between Mark and Tom is pretty funny. Though, Green Day puts on a great live show. If you folks go to Green Day Authority a lot, you probably already watched this, but how amazing for a fan of the band to be able to do what this kid just did.

Billie Joe might be one of the best front mans ever. However the Woodstock performace might be my favourite because there's a lot of interaction between him and there. Much like it used to be between Deryck and Dave back in the day.

Billie Joe kisses a lot of guys. Probably one of the perks of being bi-sexual.

hey, Blink are very entertaining live, good fun, I loved em, highlight of year for me, but seems Green Day interact more actively and personal which I think is bloody fantastic, I am dying to see "Green Day" , stupid idiot I forgot about tickets on sale, missed by week and know how fast Green Day sell out, second time I've missed them, on their American idiot tour and on 21st Century breakdown Tour, I am annoyed, I must seem them next time, must, been kickin' myself ever since forgetting
