I've seen another video from Dookie time where he goes into the crowd threatening to fight someone who was spoiling the show by being an idiot (but in the end no fighting occurs and it's turned into a lighthearted joke). I've also read both Billie and Mike say they've jumped in the crowd to fight on other occasions too. So it's not a one-off.

^yeah he stopped the show in chicago and told this gal to quit flashing her boobies.

^Ahh yeah. And Mike stopped a show in Phoenix to berate some moron trying to stick his hands down this girl's trousers. He looks so pissed off, he looks like he's about to jump down and fight him but lets security deal with it instead. Probably the best idea.

are there videos of these?

Just checked out Polish GD site after a while and found out that someone made list of 'most shocking moments on stage' and Billie's fight is there. It's all in Polish but if you want to check it out it's here. Scroll down a little.

It says:

1997 - fight during Green Day show

Billie Joe Armstrong doesn't content himself with words/ doesn't make do with words (don't know which translation makes more sense :unsure:)

Yeah, the first one's from Trenton 1994, during Going To Pasalacqua. It's nothing spectacular but quite cool

The second's from Jaded in Chicago 1994, but I can't remember when it happens.

The third is from Phoenix 1994 at the end of FOD. The whole concert used to be on Youtube but I can't find it there now. Unfortunately it only seems to be available as a full concert in the download links, I think the whole thing's decent anyway though.

Yah But The music sounds good if the listener is on pot as well

So With Logical Reasoning: Green Day Should Give Away Free Pot With Their Albums

That's what I was thinking.

Anyway I'd love to know why they've got into that fight.

This is another video where Billie stops the song homecoming to yell at someone lol. I'm assuming they were pushing people around.

^Love that one, I think it's great how he continues to do that. I like how he keeps the crowd calm at the end of this video from 1991, just shows how little he's changed through the years!

Nah there's another part of it where he tells someone to put their boobs away. But that is a fine example of some Billie crowd control :happy:

The full concert is in the download links but they don't have it split into individual songs, so it's the whole thing or nothing. I enjoyed watching the whole concert so I'd say it's worth downloading, but then I do enjoy watching whole concerts a lot haha. It's here if you want it, Phoenix, State Fairgrounds, Arizona, 1st Nov 1994

The incident is during FOD, again it's nothing spectacular but it's interesting.

Green Day have always had a problem with meatheads coming to concerts and shoving people around who are just trying to have a good time. For their Dookie tour, they booked Pansy Division to open (an overtly homosexual punk band, for any who don't know them) every night, to weed out all the dicks who didn't get their punk rock ideology and just went along to push people around and be intolerant.

I just remembered I downloaded the Phoenix one a while back, so I went to check it out. The incident with Mike is around 42 minutes in.
