Show Notes
"Since it was outside and there were no seats I was able to get there early and get my spot right in front of Billie Joe, no lie I was in the front leaning on the rail as Billie played on. No requests were taken and for some reason the Living End didn't play, instead some stinky band from Baltimore played for way too long. Throughout the show Billie was squirting everyone with a big supersoaker. He and Mike also did their usual squiriting of everyone with water bottles which of one I was fortunate enough to keep. Billie broke a string on the first song Nice Guys Finish Last but played on and then switched his guitar back to Blue until the old one got a new string. Billie Joe called out the 'hey-oh's' all night long as the audience responded enthusiastically. He didn't strip tonight but the horn players were out on a few songs including King For a Day as Billie ran up and down the stage as he pointed at random people in the audience as usual. The band recruited audience members to play Knowledge and then they were ordered to stage dive by BJ. When Billie played Time of Your Life he brought his two sons out, Joey and Jakob, as Billie smiled and continued on with the song until the two decided to leave the stage. All in all it was really cute to watch. Tre then lit his drums on fire but left a cymbal and one drum left so that he could play Warning and Macy's Day Parade. Then Mike smashed his bass and the amazing trio called it a night after playing riverside for thousands of crazy fans at Kahunaville in Wilmington, Delaware. It was the most amazing thing I've ever seen and I will never forget that night."

Sic_Transit: "This was my first concert ever! Waited by their bus after. Got to ask Billyjo why they didn't play Christie road and he said "cause we played forty fucking other songs!" Bit I still got billyjo and Mike dirnt to sign the ticket. Also got billyjo to sign an orange street cone that was part of the "barrier" keeping us from their bus. My friend took off with it but a giant bouncer grabbed it. my friend had the pointy end so he just had it yanked away. Maybe somewhere in Wilmington, DE there is an orange street cone with Billyjo's signature in black sharpie"


Noelle: "I went to the concert with my best friend Tammy, and since were not old enough to drive her dad took us. The opening band was the Thumbs cause The Living End had something else to do. They got done around 8:30 and Green Day didnt come on till around 9:00. They opened with Nice Guys Finished Last and Billie broke a string during the song. Then they played a few more songs and Billie stopped in the middle like he usually does and talked to the crowd. Then after Warning Billie said to the crowd this concert is gonna be a fucking orgasim, this is where you learn how to fuck kids, and if any of your parents have a problem with that they can blame it on me, i dont care. and all the kids started cheering him on and stuff, it was so cool.Then for knowlage he picked 3 guys out of the crowd who could play the rest of the song, they did and then they all had to stage dive to go back to the crowd. Then durign Platypus (I Hate You) some one passed out or something and Billie stopped the song in the middle untill the kid was out and then he started the song up again. Then they played Good Riddance and his kids came out on stage, Jakob came right out with his thumb in his mouth and Joey slowly moved out there, i guess he was shy? ummm, after the concert me and Tammy eyed a poster we wanted inside the resturant thing they had there, that said that Green Day was gonna play there. So we asked a bunch of people that worked there if we could have it and they jsut kept on telling us to ask other people, so finally the security guards told us, "if noone's looking just take it" so i guess i dont have to tell you this but umm, noone was looking so we just took it. Then we wen tby there tour busses and about 15 min after we were standign there Mike and Tre walked out. so i reached the poster over and Mike signed it, then he started saying to me well you cant really tell how big my nose is in this picture, i just just kid of chuckled and wasnt sure what to say. Then everyone was like whens Billie gonna be out and Tre said Billie will be out soon. well sonn was 45 min and that was at 12 am so Billie came out and everyone was like "Billie over here" or "Hey Billie" i just siad hi and he signed the poster and then i said thanks and hes like sure. it was so cool!!!!! me and tammy now share the poster and its in her room right now in this big frame along with all of the other green day stuff. I cant wait untill i can see them again!"
