I don't really like this live version so much....well I shouldn't say I dislike it, but if they're gonna do it acoustically, they should have done the same version that was studio-recorded because that was amazing. But that's just my opinion
I like this chilled out version. Green Day should play more acoustic versions of their older stuff (the older the better). From a long time Green Day fan. First saw them in Sept '95 at the brixton academy...
Something about playing power chords on acoustic makes it sounds so empty and hollow... I wonder if Billie knows there are these things called major and minor chords lol
i like green day a lot but its unfair to call billie joe the best guitar player in the world because there are so many that beat him guitar wise and guitar and vocal wise, one that comes in mind guitar and vocal wise is matthew bellamy of muse
actually billie is the 3rd best guitar player in the world. he only just lost to Angus Young (eew) from ACDC. To me he's the best guitar player in the world. i love jason too. Mike and tre are awesome aswell. Im Green Day's #1 fan forever. If you dont have anything nice to say about Green Day dont say anything at all.
@sxcBillieJoe how can you be green days number one fan that isn't possible to judge so by saying your there number one fan just shows how much of a loser you are
@sxcBillieJoe i hope you aren't serious. Billie Joe and Angus Young as the best guitar players in the world? When did 4 chords become amazing guitar playing?
in my opinion for this song to be as great as it is, you need the electric. this is still brilliant though. and going back to posts before, yeah billie joe isn't the greatest guitarists, but their first albums is filled with halfway decent solos from him. and i give a ton of credit to anyone who can sing and play the guitar simultaneously, that is NOT easy
@rickythechicken you should grow up, kid, and have some respect. then check out steve vai or jimi hendrix. and only then decide if billie's best guitarist ever and call me bitch. that's not as rude as immature.
@TheWashburner I don't have a nr1 band or nr1 song, I like green day, but they should give the other guitarplayer more creds. And what makes me pathetic? beacuse I tell the truth? Or beacuse you just get pwnd?
@TheWashburner you're proberly retarded, don't you know that it's another guy who plays the solos?
you're acting like a 8 year old schoolgirl who's in love with billie. go and kiss your grandmother, she's the only girl you will kiss in your misery life...
@antonthefreak uhmm.. dude why should they give the other guitarist more credits? I mean.. Green day was made with 3 guys, billie tré and mike, they had an other drummer a long time ago.. but thats not important.
What im trying to say is why should they give the other guitarist more creds? Most of their songs are just one guitar bass and drums.. ;D
@sergeantDVE Yeah, they were 3 guys in the begining, but they aren't 3 when the play live, they are 4. Even in some of their videos they are 4, but you only sees him a few seconds. And he's not "another guitarist", he's a part of the band. They don't replace him after every concert, it would had been different if they had 10 different guitarists, but they don't.
@antonthefreak There are 6 people in Green Day, Billie, Tre, Mike, Jason White Guitar 2, Jason freeze pianist and Mike Pelino 3 Guitar. But you are also right that most of there song are only Guitar, bass and drums except there new songs from 21st century breakdown,
@TheWashburner haha, first of all, my cam sucks, and I haven't upload when I play trivium, metallica, LOG, CoB, pantera and Three days grace.
Why don't you upload some videos so you can show me how good you are then? And why should I care if you're better then me? It's many guitarplayers that's better then me.
He only plays easy solos and power chords because they make awesome melodies and better songs. If you want to see him shredding on the guitar type in " the judges daughter pinole high school" and watch the solo he plays.
@YTNimron that's exactly why people say they suck. because they've sold out so much since American Idiot. I still like them. Granted I prefer Dookie any day of the week but still some people hate them.
@YTNimron True. And people are saying that choosing green day was a mistake. Well the makers arent idiots. They dont choiose mistakes. Costs too much to fail.

The Bridge School is a school for seriously physically disabled and challenged kids. Neil Young has 2 sons who both have severe developmental issues, and Young hosts a benefit show for the school every year. The kids get to sit up front and on stage. (That's probably why GD has toned back the instruments to acoustics.) It's a big deal to be invited to perform.
