More Insomniac Westbound Sign and Bab’s Ulva Who need to be staples along with Uptight and Bang Bang

ooooo a few of my favs from this post caption: Midsommar night in Stockholm 🥰 we love you Sweden 🇸🇪

I love that song . Thanks for sharing!

I LIVE for Billie in a vest

I can imagine. It was so many crowdsurfers and a lot of movement in the crowd during their entire set. It's difficult to focus on the stage while you're trying to stay on your feet🙈. Glad you and your friend had a good time regardless. ☺️🩷 I had barrier on Jason's side - not super close, sort of by the big screen, but I was glad I had something to hold unto. Right! He brought so much energy and engaged with the crowd in a real good way. When he went into the pit was like "give me my mic stand please" I was like is he for real. 😂 It was real fun to watch. When Billie Joe went on stage with them it was the icing on the cake. Same here 😊. I'm not a fan of festivals and was suprised by how much I liked it. I was there from it opened and walked around the entire festival to see what it was about before I relaxed in the VIP ticket area - which also was pretty nice. This is adorable 🩷 Weezer made a sweet post about the festival too.

I also found the crowd very alive. It was actually my first time where I voluntarily moved further back during a GD show because I got absolutely crushed. Have no memories from Burnout because I was struggeling so hard not to get pushed over and my friend got several shoes in her head from all the crowd surfers 😅 But it was still fun though. I loved it, it was pure fun. I've seen Frank Carter with the Rattlesnakes once before and expected him to be good and he did live up to it. I think he filled the role super well. Glad to hear you had a good time as well! Also agree with your thouhts on the festival in general. I was very pleasantly surprised. Loved the atmosphere. 😊

Some additional info on performance with Sex Pistols: https://www.msn.com/en-gb/entertainment/music/watch-green-day-s-billie-joe-armstrong-join-forces-with-frank-carter-and-the-sex-pistols-to-perform-anarchy-in-the-uk/ar-AA1HxtwM?ocid=winp2fptaskbar&cvid=e1063a375c64485a92aaf7fc60ff71cf&ei=23

I hope the setlist will get some changes (even if they are just small ones) for the luxembourg show. I *hate* when bands play almost the same set at festival shows and at their own standalone shows. Way more people know the band and their (non-hit) songs. Nothing against festivals, but its mostly casual fans watching the performance.

NGL i feel like not rotating the deluxe tracks is a bad idea, especially to the people who dont really like Fuck Off and prefer the other deluxe tracks also i feel like for now, some of the more likely to return AI and Dookie tracks (Are We, Burnout, Chump?, and Letterbomb) should also maybe take a rest as well for a while, but thats just my opinion

Seems like it. I'm still manifesting no Fuck Off in Amsterdam. 🤭

@Cris. Of course! It looked bad but seems like it went well after all. 🩷 I'm not a festival person either. The only reason I went to this is because it's where I live and with Stockholm it's pretty close by/easy to travel to so it wasn't too expensive. If you ever come to Oslo feel free to ask if you want tips on what to see. 😊 Also, I just remembered - Billie Joe said Happy Pride month before Bobby Sox. 🥳 Billie Joe must be having it out for Texas.. The women I have seen from Texas are gorgeous. Editing this to not make too many posts: I really liked this review (it's in Norwegian), but if any of the fellow Scandinavians haven't seen it. 😊 https://www.nrk.no/p3/anmeldelse_-green-day-pa-tons-of-rock-1.17461803

Ahh thanks! That’s amazing haha. And I like to think that’s a sex pistols setlist he’s kept, just like us

Thank you @Göta & @Beathe. for the additional details about what happened to the bunny. The videos of them falling looked a bit concerning indeed. I guess if they made a few runs along the barricade before going to the stage side, hopefully the arm was hurt but not broken. And thanks for all the additional details about the show @Beathe.! I'm really regretting not having booked any of the Scandinavian festivals! Even if I'm not big on festival, I think just for trip (and escaping the heat!) it would have been fun, and everyone who's attended these shows actually seems to have had such a great time! I also saw them in Texas last year and thought "well thanks Billie " when I read that hahaha

Some friends are looking for tickets. If anyone is selling please let me know 😊 Edit: all sorted now!

Gosh, there is so much footage, will look later and share if I can find it again. https://www.tumblr.com/mikedirnts-sideburns/787492349544710144 Found one, you have to listen quite hard.

Oh dear. 🤭🩷 Maybe he just said Texas because it's in the south and it's a state we would have heard of? I'm glad they seemed to have fun. From the stories Kevin posted they got to enjoy the fjord, the Munch museum and some Norwegian dessert. 💕💕

Oof, I saw them in Texas 😂 Hope he wasn’t thinking that at my show 🙈

He fell down right after he came on stage it looked like he hurt his arm. Their crew ran over right away and a medic came as well. He got up with support from the crew and high fived people but didn't get back on stage. I was standing on Jason's side and they took him out that way - next to the stage and he kept holding his arm. I saw Adrienne and Sara watching parts of Sex pistols' set from there so I guess that was the band's area was. From their instagram post it looks like he's okay thankfully. 🩷🩷 I don't think the crowd was lame at all. If you watch videos the show it looked like people were having a good time. Those three songs - including a B-side you cannot expect casual festivalgoers to know. It was awesome! I didn't expect it at all. It looked like they all had a lot of fun. I see that there's some international media writting about it as well which is fun. Frank Carter sounds a lot like Johnny Rotten. My face was like this 😱 when they first came on. @Göta what was your reaction to their set? 🩷 Green Day's setlist was similar to the other shows. They played Fuck off and added Burnout. This show together with the first night in Vienna are my favorites from this tour so far. They seemed to have a good time and all of them were smiling. The wristband Billie Joe had on was in the colors of the Norwegian flag. 💕 He said "takk" (thank you) several times in a row which was cute. Billie Joe talked about how it was a beautiful festival, city and country. Which he obviously says everywhere but it's more special when it's your hometown. He also said that we were all so beautiful and that "our parents fucked and made beautiful children". 🤣 Then he said something about that's not something you'll see when looking around Texas. The last time they where here Billie Joe kept asking when the sun would go down. Yesterday he commented on how it was starting to get dark by the end of their set. 😅 Sara gave a bunch of kids drumsticks. She made two turns back and forth to give to everyone which was very nice of her. 💕 She also posted a video of a guy in a wheelchair crowdsurfing. 🩷 Edit: I'm not really into festivals and would go to a headliner show any day, but I actually liked this one. If some good bands get booked I'll definitely consider going back next year.

Billie replacing Johnny Rotten in the Sex Pistols is iconic . I can only imagine how he's seething

Ah I see. From what I saw it seemed like it took a little while for them to stand up again. I didn’t see much from where I stood but it lasted long enough for people around me to start aksing «whats happening?». I saw a bunch of crew members who walked out on stage and looked down who looked worried, then after a little while I heard cheering and cameras were turned on again and Bunny made a few runs back and forth in front of the barrier before walking off.

Yeah, I saw what Green Day shared about the bunny so I know they were okay afterwards, what I was wondering was more about how they were at the moment - if they had been able to continue the show at the moment, or if they had to be carried away backstage / to paramedics. But you answered that, so thank you Actually I had never thought much about it, but with how limited the field of vision might be in that costume, and slippery floors in rainy stages, I'm now surprised it doesn't happen more often - not necessarily the bunny falling off the stage which is a bit more extreme, but simply slipping and falling on stage.

He’s looking gorgeous, I like his blonde with dark roots more and more. 😍

They continued to run a bit back and forth afterwards but didn't climb back up on stage so I suppose it must have hurt a bit. But I saw the band made a joke post on it on Instagram so I think they're okay, would've been mean otherwise 😅 __________ Took this one 🥰:

Well, looks like “Fuck Off“ is here to stay 😅
