I hope this fits "Green Day News". I looked through the boards and didn't see any postings about this. Feel free to move, or remove, if needed.

Last night Green Day played Jason White's 40th Birthday Party in Oakland at a bar called The Night Light (a mere 10 mins from my apartment.) I didn't go, but the bar posted a picture on their Facebook page earlier this afternoon. Apparently it was a night of Jason celebrating bands he'd been in past and present. Also on the bill were The Big Cats (as most of you know as his hometown Little Rock band) AND a reunion of The Influents, who broke up 10 years ago this month.

I never would have been invited, but I am kicking myself this happened so close.

Here are some pictures I found.

Instead of happy birthday the band played an acoustic version of Jason's favourite Green Day song. "Baby baby it's sudoku time."

Which he accompanied on the recorder.

And I just got into the Influents yesterday. What a coincidence. That's awesome

They are / were one of my favorite groups. First show in 10 years!

I'm curious to know if Pinhead Gunpowder played to, he has been in them since their early days.

Would be awesome but I doubt it, I imagine it'd be more difficult than ever to get them together with Aaron living in New York and Bill not being part of the Green Day crew now.

But Bill's in the Influents, right?

He was originally then left in 2000 but in the instagram picture posted, it's clearly Bill. Plus it's always possible Aaron flew in from New York.

Oh Bill was there? In that case I suppose it's not so impossible then. Would've thought we would've heard though, since we've heard that the other bands played.
