omg i love you so much for posting this video..i was at the july 3rd concert also and I was waiting and waiting and waiting for them to play this song. I am so favoriting this!
now my son wanting to join up cause he watched 9/11 at age 9. i'm not wanting to lose my only family member left, but i want him to understand what my dad sacrificed in WWII. that flag meant a lot to dad.
i believe in protest. god knows i did my share. just leave the flag outta it. that's a big reason we are laughed at. it's old.
so, thumb me down and let's drop it k? green day rocks.
i was there! omgsh it was the best day of my life! and it was soooo loud and amazing i wish i could re live it because i thought u werent allowed with cameras and the first fuckin thing i noticed was there was a bunch of cameras DX DX DX
for people on floor.. is there any mosh pit or somethin? im pretty scared & so excited too. . its my first green day ( and big) concert .. im pretty short! i dont want to die lol.
Moshing generally happens mid pit. All the people who press towards the front of the pit usually aren't there to mosh but to watch, but it's rough to keep your place. You're constantly pushed around, even if you're a bigger guy. Everyone moves as one entity. The people at the back of the pit are generally just there to watch but don't want to fight all the crowd to get to the front. But those in the middle are generally the moshers because people who don't want to mosh usually move for them
Well, I'm sure he's allowed, but it would probably be harder to do so with a drum set rather than a guitar. Though in the American Idiot video he does some "frolicking" or "leaping" or "dancing". It's all the same :)
great video. GREAT CONCERT! not cool having flag upside down. it was like that whole concert. i grew up w/older fam members and such going to nam. we thought the flag thing cool then...it's not. anyway, i was there 7/3, was a great concert!
I know exactly what it means. To be precise, according to Title 36, U.S.C, Chapter 10, 176(a): The flag should never be displayed with the union down, except as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property. I thought it cool in my young teenage yrs when the flag was used like this to protest war/gov. I just didnt see the point here. I dont want to belabor the issue. It was disappointing to see this old trick pulled by a band I like so much.
whens the next time they will come to seattle?

For those concerned about the display of the flag on stage, take a closer look;
Count how many stars and stripes are on it.
I don't think it qualifies as a true American Flag in the first place.
CaptLewis05 2 years ago 2
no, it wasn't. agreed. wasn't even a real flag. but.... look at how the flag was displayed at grammys 2005 performance of same song.
i had to explain to my 16 yr old son what the deal was. brought back really bad memories. we both love green day.
cassie711 2 years ago
What's to explain?
I'd say its a moment to teach. I'm more bothered by what has been done with the flag when it's been the right side up.
Bad memories?
I too love Green Day AND their message. The the red, white and blue has been hijacked for their own immoral purposes, of money, war and religion.
They have every right to be disgusted. I am too. If it still bothers you, drop em a line and tell them. Let them explain for themselves.

yeah, bad memories. my older brothers and nam.

I wonder how Tre feels about not getting to skip and jump and frolick around while performing.

well though its not the exact meaning, it is fitting figuratively considering this country is in distress.
