Show Notes
Performed under the name Sweet Children
Ben Myers, Green Day: American Idiots & The New Punk Explosion: "On February 24, the trio returned to play their fourth show at Gilman in three months, second on a bill that included Sweet Baby, Short Dogs Grow, Samiam and openers the Judy Blooms."
Lisa Johnson: "I remember it was packed and sweaty and everyone was really young. I remember Tim Armstrong was really adamant that we get there because he told me they were really good and he knew I'd love them ... I couldn't even see the stage. I think it was a Sunday afternoon, and it was one of their first shows. There was such a magical hysteria in the room. I didn't really know what was going on. A few years later, I found out that that had been an early Green Day we'd seen. I've never forgotten that show."
