Basket Case live at Reading Festival 2004. The crowd was electric and you can't even hear Billie when he is singing. I'm sure they had to turn up his mic haha. 

My personal favourite is Going to Pasalaqcua at the Emirates Stadium as this was the first time I heard my favourite song live. I also think this year at Hyde Park 21 Guns was amazing! The crowd again were so loud! Loved it as acoustic only! 

Finally I feel Leeds Festival 2013 as they played Dookie front to back! Amazing just amazing to hear the album live in full apart from All By Myself hahaha but we can let that go haha what a gig!

It was so heartwarming. One of those stories which is never publicized that none of us would never know about. Jeff went back there as Mike A. (tour manager) was getting the buses ready to go, told Mike D. the situation, and then Mike D. came out and made this guy's night. One of those moments which never makes it to social media, etc. but at the same time completely tells you everything you need to know about who they are as people. Of all my GD memories, and there are a lot, this is the one that stands out to me as the most rewarding.

Man, I really wish that somehow, someday Green Day will release full show's of their secret shows in 2011 (especially Wember Hall and Red 7). I can't explain why, especially when the perfomances itself aren't that good (no full gear, drunken Billie at Red 7 etc) but something just tells me that they were special. Songs that haven't been played since those days (Amanda, Wow! That's Loud, Lazy Bones, etc) and E-standard versions of Welcome to Paradise, She and Hitchin' A Ride really makes me want pro footage. If I could ever see Red 7 show with pro footage, it would easily be my favorite Green Day show ever.

But because that's just fantasy dreaming (sigh..), i'd go with Irving Plaza 2012. Easily the best show in Trilogy era with huge setlist and emotions coming from there and there. Thankfully we managed to get some pro footage from this show.

Atleast we have pro footage of Let Yourself Go and really good camera angle where GD played She at Red 7.

Live at the 10 spot I think, if you mean where he broke his nose with his bass.

And Billie didn’t even notice until the audience told him. Mike “the show must go on” Dirnt. What a trooper. 👍🤘
