  • hahah Letterman received Green Day a few times, i think he really adopted them

  • i think at that moment hes just stoned

  • The song is dedicated to Adie at the moment but the song was

    really written about BJ because he suffers from Panic Disorders

    so he wrote a song about it.

    "where have all the bastards gone" hehehehe

    great stuff!!

  • Old GREEN DAY I miss those guys. were stuck with the image conscious emo sell outs that have their own brodway play green day.

  • Wtf was that on 1.07?????

  • "This song's for Adie"... Billie's so sweet *-*

  • any1 who doesnt like gd....FUCK YOU they are the best ounk/rock band in the fuckin world

  • any1 who doesnt like gd....FUCK YOU the are the best ounk/rock band in the fuckin world

  • Billy Joe is fucking great. Period.

  • who where the 2 fat guys fishing?

  • 1:05 most random thing ever lmfao

  • Ah, memories.

  • best punk band.ever.there is nothjing to say......

  • those were the days. not saying they dont rule still, but tbh, all their older stuff is far better than their new stuff, even though the new stuff is amazing, just shows how good they really are.

  • WTF at 1:08??

  • haha ikr

  • lol

  • yeah.. i know ! punkrock is all about how you look right? asswipe

  • Not sure whether I'm agreeing or disagreeing but no It is definitely not just about looks alone

  • i must say they where way better in the 90s but i spose im only saying that coz im a teenager. spsoe they moved onto different music. but i prefer there old stuff

  • wow, they were real punk rock here, they sound pretty much like ramones here, now they are more like alt-rock or so, but still a great band.

  • Bass is too loud in basket case but who minds ?

    Green Day best fucking band in the world

  • 1:06  WTF???

  • 1:06  WTF???

  • "this song is for adie" *.* wonderful!!! i love it :D thanks for uploading!

  • great tone

  • haha this song's for adrianne...lol!!I LOVE THESE GUYS

  • epic :]

  • 1:06 What the fuck? lol

  • ADIE!!!!

  • gato!!

  • random guys fishing WFT??

  • during 86, was that billie's natural hair color?

  • I do like Tre's hair back then hahaha

  • Which One The first one is very 80s looking and the second one is very punky

  • i was born in 1994(:

    love this old dirty stuff

    bu its good that not all the songs are about masterbation and stuff:'D

  • Damn, Green Day is amazing.

  • Been amazing for 15 years. American Idiot, Time Of Your Life, Wake Me Up When September Ends, Basket Case, 21 Guns, Know Your Enemy, and of course my favorite Boluvard Of Broken Dreams. David Letterman has great taste for an old guy. He likes these guys, The Foo Fighters, Weazer, Johnny Cash, George Jones, Alicia Keys, etc.

  • The difference between Basket Case and 86 in this video is startling. They were so 'amateur' (for want of a better word) for Basket Case. A year later, they seem much more organised and like a real band. I prefer the basket case green day!

  • awesome sonq,

  • no they were hotter when they were dirty and didn't give a shit about how they looked :)

  • I guess that would be called confidence.

  • @blowmybraiN definitly

  • yeah they do look alot better now but that's how alot of people dressed and shit back then so lol

  • these vids have been sped up, watch his mouth...

  • Wow, him and Adrienne go back a long way....Must have had a on-off relaiship. I love you, Billie. I adore you, Mike. I love you too, Tre`.....Did I just write that?

  • billie strums so violently and can anyone else agree to that tre cool looks like adam sandler here?

  • not rly, they sound better now, only thing u could say is that u like their old songs better, thats taste stuff, but hasnt got to do on how they actually play, and at the moment the band plays better

  • aww he dedicated it to adrienne

  • Basket Case?

    I thought he dedicated it to Holden Caulfield, the character from his favourite book, The Catcher in the Rye...but I can be wrong, duh :)

  • got married in 1994

  • Damn, I nearly can't hear Billie Joe's guitar because of bass and drums. ;//

    But great song anyway. :]]

  • no dude they got married in late 94 and then found out that she was pregnant the day after they got married. Then the their first kid was born in 1995.

  • haha billie joe, nice intro, "hi... this song's for Adie."

  • Hmmm.... Nice work but can u include the mayham from tre everytime he goes into letterman's show?

  • Well, he got married in 1995, but this was before that anyway, so they were probably engaged.

  • Billie got married in 1994

  • they were only engaged i think for two weeks.

  • No, he got married in 1995, and I think they've been on Letterman for the new one already.

  • have they been on letterman yet for 21st century break down?

  • I saw them do "East Jesus Nowhere". It was pretty cool. I saw it on the Leterman website.

  • Yeah they done East Jesus Nowhere

  • yeah they did east jesus nowhere

  • Yep, they did East jesus Nowhere, and tre is fucking hilarious!

  • yeah they did East Jesus Nowhere in May I think

  • oh. they were so high. and played so good!;)

  • theyre so young here. n Tre's hair Lol! :D

  • that's what i was gonna say

    tre's hair is sooo in

  • was billie joe already married, when performing basket case?

  • damn... they used to be so much better.

  • HI! :D

  • omg 18th of december me and green day 4ever!!!!!!! Green Day are the sex

  • Tre looks fikkin awesome with green hair!!!!!!! :-)

  • at the very beggining of basket case billie joe dedicates the song to ady, and ady is now his wife lol

  • yah cuz they weren't married yet

  • lol advertisement in the mniddle part

  • Actually it was randomly put in because billie flipped off the camera man and they didnt have time to edit it out

  • whot  type of bass is mike using

  • a hamer, i think - aluminum neck. used it at woodstock 94 too

  • Are you sure? That neck looks like a vintage Kramer bass, my bass teacher had one much like this, but can´t appreciate it well enough...looks like a vintage 250B to me...

  • a 59 precision i think

  • @argoedaer it's a Gibson Ripper bass, or possibly another model from that series. Look it up, always had that classic Green Day rubbery tone.

  • Billies posture is so bad on stage lol

  • the song`s called 86

  • dude 86 is awesome. its not often these days that they do some of their lesser-known songs on talk shows and stuff.

  • im seeing them in detroit on july 14th its gonna be the shit

  • IM SEEING THEM LIVE IN AUGUST IN DENVER!!!! i cant wait!

  • "Hi"...hahaha shows how awkward he was for one of his first nationwide performances:)

  • I laughed at that! xD He's so different now...well, they all are. Much better stage perfprmance, but you have to love the old stuff too :)

  • His guitar sounds great here.

  • agreed

  • man, billie joe is soooooooooooo0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0­o0o0o0o0o hotttttt

  • greenday hands down, best band in the history of music

  • correction pls best band in the history of PUNK ROCK music

  • for me it's the best band in the world but statistic it really is the most succesfull punk rock band ever!!!!!!

  • Actually,they are GODS of Punk Rock to me + the have been the most most successful punk rock band.....and they are different from other bands.

    Eg-they stop in the middle of a song to stop telling guys to do what they are doing(like hitting or molesting someone or bossing around)...i havent seen other bands doing like that except Green Day

    ~GD is GOD~

  • Clash did it :D But ive seen quite a few punk bands do it. I guess it's jus what punk stands for init :D

  • "so step aside and let the next one pass.

    don't let the door kick you in the ass"

    ...best line ever.

  • LOL, sup with the fishing clip @ 1:06! hahaha

  • Jesus, i've forgotten how good Green Day were back in 94!

  • tre cool looks so funny with his mohawk =)

  • GREEN DAY OWNS ALL! they were only 22 when the wrote one of the most epic modern rock albums. dookie is even on rolling stone's best album list

  • Totally agree!! but I hate rolling stone magazine.

  • nope. they were 22 when it came out. they had been writing dookie since they were 18..

  • Is basket case write for 80?? O_O

  • Um, im not really sure. but its dedicated to her at that moment.

    :) :) :)

  • I know the songs 80, Westbound Sign, Last Night on Earth are about here. Probably more

  • @phanhuybach14 yes 80 has a mental disorder that makes her peranoid and has panic attacksXD

  • @phanhuybach14
