[G1r2e3e4n5D6a7y81]

is it just me or does john look 5 years older then billie and mike

[LTPRAPTOR]

@G1r2e3e4n5D6a7y81 Its because he is.

[Saxm10]

@G1r2e3e4n5D6a7y81 Its because hes from 1968 and billie and mike are from 1972...

[oasisfanmatt]

@Saxm10 john was born in 1969...

[xTKE817x]

They'll never make it!!! Aha sick

[cahsalv1]

Ahhh Tré Cool caiu como uma luva para a banda!

[stevemateo]

Awesome stuff. Thank you for posting this.

[supermanoncrak101]

LOL at 2:10

[Krutch24]

There playing at a school how many people do you think have time to watch them?

[VFloresTalent]

@Krutch24 they either played during lunch break, or before school started

[SonOfRageAndLove69]

why is there no crowd ?

[Gunsinpublic]

@SonOfRageAndLove69 because they just started. someone pointed out on another video that the amount of people proggreses as time passses

[NirvanaConcerts]

I was born in the wrong generation.

[kylewuzhur]

beautiful performance

[ShotsOfEspresso]

a camcorder like this must have cost thousands back then

[MrGreenrafael]

thanks so much soldamerican for record green day at that time. i see you did know that this band would be one of the greates in the world as we see it today . thank you thank you !!!!

[theedgeofgl0ria]

[ShomanTyla]

Yo John...I see you have a cowbell there. Attaboy.

[bernardo1203]

2:11 - 2:13 best part!

[greendrummerdude]

you see green day wouldn't be green day without Tré cool :D

[Ohtheguilt90]

I loved Billie's teeth 0:54

[pasim123]

yep john is switching the sticks haha

[Vidiosmokes]

@Greenday48078 yea he did he looks old enuff to have been in his teens or 20s then look at his other vids of him he looks like hes hammerd on pot

[MrJadedexplosion]

i wonder if anybody thought they would be one of the biggest abnds in the world!!

[smoochy244]

Wow, Blue looks so fresh back then

[GreenDaysummerify]

Look at some people just walking by not even looking at them, I bet they regret that now!

[ToastedOmond]

If you look closely, john is switching to heavier sticks. One on that bass drum and one in the bag. And he doesn't drop them . he actually throws them in the air. hahaha :D

[TheShooten22]

@ToastedOmond woooooow,its true,didn't notice that,thanks man!!! =D

[ToastedOmond]

@TheShooten22 No prob bro, all greenday fans gotta help eachother out

[i2kl4skl]

2:11 MAJOR ZOOMINGGGG!!!

[asgfasgagtasgewt91]

480p makes a lot of diffirence !!!

[johnnyjaramone]

Why doesn't anyone like John?

Yes, he left them, but he also gave them the missing ingredient in their music and made them more punk so they can play at Gilman...

[greendaykicksass1101]

why cant they come to my high school? :(

[breakfastsex]

mike dirnt is so awesome! great voice! matches billie joe's purrrrrfectly (Y)

[Alexgreenday2000]

If he's left handed he should change the drum kit round not hit the hi-hat with his left hand

[DTEENPUNKROCK]

billie joe is starting to look like someone i knew along time ago and probably don't like

[LogSNES]

I feel like I was there

[0LaPola]

Zoomfunction must have been new way back then... O_O Al's shoes is an eyesore!! D:

[samSOAI]

Lol! Mike's hair!

[SomeRandomYoungster]

gotta love how they dressed hahaha

[Xij29y6]

Lol John keeps dropping his drumsticks

[Deetroiter]

Funny how like only 5 people are paying attention to them, nobody up front watching. Unimaginable by todays standards for Green Day...

[BJGreenDay95]

mike was rickin out! YEAH! HAHAHHA

[gibsonsg91921]

billie had dropped out by then

[greenday103921guns]

It's funny cause John didn't go to this high school

[MrHatenoobs]

0:29 2x fail with drum sticks!!...

[SomeRandomYoungster]

i always watch these videos and one time on the freeway I passed Pinole and I saw this school with the square in the middle and i was like omg haha

[joetubealong]

This is absoloutly amazing! When is this and where and what is PV High School?

[oasisfanmatt]

@joetubealong i think the title gives it away....

[TmastaTay]

@joetubealong In the description it says May 10th, 1990.. And it was at their high school. Ignore @oasisfanmatt he's being a dick. It doesn't say when in the title.

[espirikii]

John/Al Sobrante looks like George Mcfly from Back To The Future

[greendaychik31]

Kiffmeyer can't even hold onto his drum sticks :P

[greendaychik31]

You were there? Holy fuck, you lucky bastard. :)

[JBASS1358]

how do you pronounce pasalacqua? haha

[s4mwr1ght]

@JBASS1358 pass-sah--lah-kwah

[whatsername091]

CAN YOU BELIEVE ALL THESE PEOPLE IGNORING ONE OF THE BANDS IN THE PLANET? NO MY CAPS LOCK ISNT BROKEN 

[mkriki]

LOL Charlie Sheen :D

[GreenDay1160]

0.54 it's so weird to see him say 'ohmygod' because it's him saying 'ohmygod' 21 years ago.............. SO WEIRD

[MG21749]

i wonder what john is up too these days :/

[Homer22234555]

@Junkpunker21 He's left handed. That's why

[Junkpunker21]

Strange how he has the ride next to the hi-hat. Tre Cool found him weird too. xP

[felipe199019901]

mas fuerte los aplausos para la mejor banda de punk rock de la historia ...xD

[stupidandpointlesvid]

dammit john hold on to your sticks

[ArmageddonProphet]

@stupidandpointlesvid that's what she said

[12west90]

This is awesome! The quality is amazing for a video from 1990

[jor3122]

@12west90 i know, its better than most from today!

[WonderfulMermaid]

they're so young! :P

[domt44]

What's that black thing on johns snare is it like some kind of muffler

[shelloz09]

talk about butterfingers John hahaha :D

[Jakdaman247]

Hardly anyone cheers them, I dont think they realise how amazing they become!

[eduardo0796]

Hey thank you for uploading these videos, but I have a question, you said you recorded these videos, so, do you know billie, mike and john? does billie or mike remember you?

[EMOkids6423]

i thought here they were sweet children and billie says were green day

[SuperMegabar]

@EMOkids6423 Read the discription...

[MrPrimussucks123]

Were you actually here???!!!!



[Dmagnetic17]

@extremehockeyfan Where IS Pasalacqua exactly? lol

[Mastosis11]

@Dmagnetic17 I talked to Mike Dirnt back in 1998 and I remember he said Pasalacqua was a funeral home.

[GreenDayWeed]

this small band then years later playing this song high as fuck in jaded in chicago

[timofcent1]

the old drummer sucks! he keeps droping the sticks! thumbs up for tre'! :)

[breakingfame]

@timofcent1 no john is awesome man how could u hate john

[oasisfanmatt]

does anyone know what amps bille and mike used around this time?

[extremehockeyfan]

I wonder if they ever really did go to Pasalacqua....

[GLASSB182]

@ 0:55 did billie forget the lyrics or does the song just go that way cuz he did the same thing on the album?

[Confuzzledism]

@GLASSB182 They sometimes do that live so Mike can do his little bass "fill".

[mauronarf]

Ahmadinejad at 3:10 =P

[canadianidiot1039]

john was a amazing drummer, he just had to learn how to not drop his sticks often

[markuxo11]

al sobrante is fucking shit... is shit... really, bitch

[jaded822]

haha al sobrante isn't playing the drums correctly ...

[canadianidiot1039]

@jaded822 its a open handed style and hes left handed (therefore hitting the hit hat with his left hand takes priority over his right.), its probably bad enough that he aint playing on a left handed drum kit :)

[Brigister]

What's wrong with people? Cmon that's Green Day FOR FREE!! And they don't even listen to them ._.

[PaulGibson100]

Thanks for uploading! Best quality! Favorite song of mine.. :)

[nicoakdarg]

Al sobrante sucks!

[seysky]

Is green day a christian band???

[adambombiswaycool]

@seysky no

[dadke]

@seysky hahahahahaha seriously?

[shelloz09]

@navychaplain7 lol Green Day's not a Christian band... :P

[MCboy1820]

john was a great drummer! *-* but tré cool gives the band a lot of humor :P they're both great!

[Brigister]

@MCboy1820 No Al Sobrante totally sucked, c'mon he couldn't even hold the drumsticks -.-

[fixcomputers22]

did you record that?

[TheMAMY7]

Bet john regrets quitting... Thats what you get from finnishing school :)

[valdis975]

1 man is stupid

[canadianidiot1039]

all i can say is this is the best video showing john drumming :)

[serranojavier99]

that freaken weird man i go to that school!!

[cokezzzftw]

@serranojavier99 You are so lucky, I would worship the ground they walked on.

[spoty212]

THIS IS AMAZING!

[extremehockeyfan]

omg there is another video on youtube of this exact song and show..... shot from the front of them xD

[culer89]

Al is very very very very bad drummer!!

[simpleboy98]

@culer89 what???he was a really good drummer!, have you ever listen to the drums of the song"Green Day" not even trecol could create such an amazing master piece!

[zachy7777]

@simpleboy98

Seriously? Green Day? It's good song but the drum fills on it were just the same damn roll every five seconds.

[cokezzzftw]

@zachy7777 I agree, I'm a drummer and Tre is my favourite drummer, for two reasons. He is hilarious, and Green Day's songs are fun to play. But to be honest, Tre is a "support" drummer. His beats aren't technical nor creative. But some songs on Dookie were great, really good. And Jesus of Suburbia and Homecoming are his best songs ever on drums. That is my opinion.

[joseph507357]

JK loses the drumstick a lot.

[gloria43030]

yo hubiera querido estar ahi!!!!!!!!!!! seria lo maximo amo a green day!!! genial ese concierto aunque simple, es fantastico pero con tre seria mucho mejor

[859able]

who ever the camera person is..........y'know the show looks alot better from the front?!?

[SuperMegabar]

They should release this as a Live Album!

[MatyCS4]

Bad cameraman xD

[Istvifi]

Tre's a 1000000000x better drumer

did billie forgot the lyrics or what? xD

[druii2]

@Istvifi fixing the amp

[michaeldmendes]

[rocknroll4ya]

[rocknroll4ya]

who the fuck is the singer?? real billie joe?? omg .. :O

[slateflash]

@rocknroll4ya um...that IS bj

[TheTRIAS]

The Al Sobrante style was different, weird... so... I like it! COME BACK TO GREEN DAY! WHO LOVES TRE? jajaja

[skatertumen]

@TheTRIAS ahah Al's drumsticks always flying away

[TheTRIAS]

Now we know the guy who filmed this concert from besides the balcony, nice! jajaja

[culer89]

AL is a very bad drummer...

[zachy7777]

Really awesome video, but your camera work is giving me a panic attack.

[CommenterMonkey]

@zachy7777 it made me dizzy....

[oscarius4]

[jverlander35]

[maxthatridealyn771]

[contextsensitive6]

I always wondered if John regretted his decision to leave GD...

[unemployedyouth123]

i love there old drummer if you watch their whole show you see random drum stcks going through the air

[1994evol]

Fucking Amazing dude! Please post Paper Lanterns if you have it!

[1994evol]

Fucking Amazing dude!

[hadododo6]

ha HA 0:32

[Rockguitarhero462]

Al Sobrante is such a dumbass drummer; his drum sticks some how always slip from his hands. 

[simpleboy98]

John had a very particular way to play drums he didnt croos his arms as most of drummers do and also the crash??? is on the left instead of being on the right

[Mayoso0831]

Amazing music, a new live album is coming out soon they should just put this out

[magicman993]

I find it comforting that theirs actually a community of people who KNOW about the "old' Green Day. It's like an exclusive community of non ignorant people. ;D And, this is the clearest footage of this I've ever seen. I only wish I'd been able to be there. Thanks for uploading!

[miniboy14]

I bet the people who are standing there thinking this band is fucking lame are now saying to their children that awsome band were in my high school and I've seen one of their first gigs and it was awsome!

[MegaSeanO1]

no wonder john left he cant hold drum sticks

[Greendayfan1258]

The original VHS of this performance must be worth like...alot of money...tho i wouldnt sell it...no matter how much money its worth cuz this band and this performance is amazng!

[THEMETALHEAD6581]

Thanks 4 postin' this.

[x3just]

ooo jaki piekny mlody Billie Joe ;]

Mike jakie wloski ;]

Al super okularki

[akecleon1]

john was dropping the sticks throughout the whole concert

[NewBornVampiire]

2:57 Billie's been doing that move for FOREVER! x)

[anthonylefrancois]

Is that tre cool or did they have another drummer back in the day?
