BASKING RIDGE, N.J., Dec. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- For Green Day fans who can't get enough of the band's iconic performances, Verizon Wireless and Verizon said today that they are bringing exclusive content to their video platforms and giving customers chances to win Green Day gear.

Full production video footage from Green Day's "21st Century Breakdown" tour is now available on V CAST Video from Verizon Wireless and on Verizon FiOS TV Video on Demand (VOD). Verizon Wireless, which sponsored Green Day's first full North American tour in more than three years, shot the video using thirteen high-definition cameras during the band's Aug. 22 concert in Phoenix. Fans can relive the event with six exclusive songs from the concert, including "Time of Your Life," "Know Your Enemy," "Minority," "Jesus of Suburbia," "Brain Stew" and "21st Century Breakdown." Verizon Wireless customers with V CAST Video-capable phones, including the BlackBerry® Storm™ smartphone, can go to the Music section of V CAST Video and select "All the Best Music Videos" then "Exclusives" to see the Green Day videos. Verizon FiOS TV customers can access the content on VOD by pressing the "VOD" or "On Demand" button on their FiOS remote control, by using the menu on FiOS TV's Interactive Media Guide, or by selecting VOD channel 900.

Free Live Green Day Music for BlackBerry® Tour™ Smartphone and BlackBerry Storm Smartphone Customers

Verizon Wireless customers who own a BlackBerry Tour smartphone or BlackBerry Storm smartphone can text "GD" to 5509 or log onto www.vcastlive.com/gd on their smartphone's browser to start accessing the free music, which includes full-length, live performance tracks of "21 Guns," "Last of the American Girls" and "21st Century Breakdown," plus an "East Jesus Nowhere" ringtone and exclusive Green Day wallpaper. Each song was recorded at the legendary Studio 880, where Green Day has recorded regularly since 2001.

Verizon Wireless is bringing Green Day fans another interactive way to enjoy their favorite band. Fans can go to www.vcastlive.com from now until Dec. 31 to test their mashing skills by remixing songs from 21st Century Breakdown with the Green Day masher.

Masher participants can also redeem a Green Day ringtone of "East Jesus Nowhere."

I don't completely understand what it all means (can only people with a Blackberry something watch it?), but I figured it wouldn't hurt to make a thread about it. I couldn't find a thread about it, forgive me if it already exists.

I'm kinda disappointed though that Green Day's official site can't even spell Billie's name right.

It's not for people with just Blackberry's, but people with Verizon. I'm sure these videos will surface on the net for everyone else soon. Someone will probably upload them to YouTube or something.

Hopefully someone will.

I have fios TV, so I watched it. It was cool! Wish it would have been longer they cut out a lot of the best parts that you know they had to have played- but hey; it was free.

So, it was posted online through Verizon?

They allow Green Day music, but some videos have rights they're going after.

I also saw an announcement that Warner was making a deal with Hulu to show music videos, so maybe that has something to do with it.

I want to see them so soon. But I think that I saw a few ago too, but I'm not sure, anyway I'll look forward to see it.

I think that was for the Phoenix show that they recorded. This might be something different

Yeah, 21st century breakdown and KYE from the Phoenix show are on YT, although I don't know for certain if that is from this Verizon thing or not.
