[JYZaMaN]

[RedOne432]

where is blue?

[thepieman2000]

Before they sold out...

[hymynameisbazs]

@thepieman2000 they didn't sold out, there are a few popular song, but they are still the same, the best fucking rockband in the entire world.

[beta0blaster]

@thepieman2000 they never sold out

[TheNoob765]

[FuckingStanz]

I hate the 2000s green day, but I still have this on VHS tape lmao. It sounds a lot better than this crappy digitized version.

[skatertumen]

[Starcraft2xD]

@KREAGERWAVES Totally worth it!

[fedsta14]

red strat :)

[ArmageddonProphet]

i'm waitin' 'till i get really bored, then my band and i will film a video with this song

[igetshitface]

damm i think there the only band who played in the alley which beats u2 and probally other bands

[mythkid1208]

It's weird because tre's using a pearl kit, and he never uses pearl (well until now)

[MrPeterGroove]

maybe that was just backline drums of the owener of the fuckin 3x3square place

[Giablo1]

@mythkid1208  hah, their all using instroments they never use here

[EuGJaMMeR]

I love it how some people are wrong that they don't have punk roots. Look at them playing in small shows.. They only have two big acts which I have seen which is the Woodstock '94 concert and the Bullet in a Bible.

At least in Woodstock, they played like crazy. In other '90s shows, they'd destroy their equipment. Sadly, in Bullet in a Bible and onwards, it seems like they cannot afford breaking their instruments anymore, for some reason. (Not because they grew up and matured. Oh please.)

[MrDabomba13]

@EuGJaMMeR no they matured they are like almost 40. and you totally forgot about milton keynes. like that concert was fucking huge

[EuGJaMMeR]

@MrDabomba13

So what? They're Green Day. We loved them for their immaturity in the 90s. I mean come on, when they were in their 20s and early 30s, they weren't THAT immature that they had to grow up and get over it. They were still respectable and respectful people. I did mention Milton Keynes - Bullet in a Bible DVD concert. ;)

[MrDabomba13]

@EuGJaMMeR o totally missed that

[Avalanche95311]

Thats A Fuckin Awesome Idea For A Gig, If My Band Gets Big, Im gonna do something simliar.

[EuGJaMMeR]

I fucking dream that too dude!

[Zsmart]

So good.

[mfighter96]

Is it just me, or is Billie's vocals really low in some parts?

[1994Andy2007]

Fast! :)

[iammready]

Whoa..so old but sounds so fresh!! Look how hard they work the crowd back then. Sweet! Their instruments sound different...crunchier..good.

[guy666657]

whoah, Billie playing with a red strat? haha thats new. never seen that before!

[bigmuffexpress]

Yeah not for long though, he smashed it 3 songs later!

[greendayrandom]

i ddont think any band, anywhere, ever, no argument, has made a truer song. period.

[guitarrealhero]

so true

[BlizzardOfThyDoom]

I've known this song since I was probably 11 years old , and not until recently have I realized what he was really talking about. The life of a seasoned pot head. So true.

[TheSon0fRageAndLove]

bite my lip and close my eyes

[Al1HopeisGone]

LOL, the crowd comes in when he says "WHEN MASTURBATION'S LOST IT'S FUN, YOU'RE FUCKING LAZY!"

[Al3kskates]

wouldnt you consider Green Day somewhat grunge-ish?

[Cz930]

not really but i see where ur coming from

[darkmasterbilly]

eh...

[MrCrisDay]

nah wouldn't say so

most of their songs are way too upbeat to be classed as grunge it's the best 90's punk music

[mfnstudioschannel]

They are punk, both with their new and their old music. My favorite is still the albums/EP's from 1989-2000, but the new one is not dissapointing at all!!

[WootMapler]

Go and search up 'Punk Music' on Youtube right now. That does not compare to Green Day, it's a completely different style Green Day has. I'm not hating on them though, I love their music. At least their old music anyway...

[elementbamiscool]

well u dont have 2 say i dont know ANYTHING about punk

i feel like we got off on the wrong foot there

[WootMapler]

I never said that you don't know anything about punk, I'm merely urging you to find out what true punk is :D

[castostarlight]

New Green Day rocks.

[PolarOpposites12]

i'm guessing your about 12... right?

[yihd]

era of punk were 70s and 80s btw...but nevertheless your right,

[nuanyue]

he's right, if you looked at actual punk bands you'd see they never were... They're still my all time favorite band though... and their new stuff isn't bad at all, it's just different and ninety percent of todays youth can't handle change... and the ones who can say it's bad just to conform and not feel left out... Because people can't seem to think for themselves these days

[WootMapler]

They were never really punk, when you look at real music classified as 'punk' you'd know what I mean.

[elementbamiscool]

they were to punk

they started outin an underground PUNK place where they played shows

[WootMapler]

Read 'nuanyue''s comment, he hits the sweet spot on this subject.

[TheNewWorldMan69]

that looks like a sweet place to see a show. were is "The Alley"?

[iBlah6666]

Toronto if I'm not mistaken...

[AlexFoogla]

I wish i lived in California in the time Green Day were forming... :D

[Insomniac1796]

the dude intorducing green day said "here's uhh Green Day" u don't say "uhhh" when introducing them!!!

[jacknyberg123]

@Insomniac1796 especially when its Green Day!

[Santiagoaero]

Seriously, this stuff is so retarded. I hope you don't believe it. You're wasting your time.

[n1kOC]

very punk...!!!!!cooolll

[hdorcndo]

tanja i love you

[EuGJaMMeR]

Lol! Mike Dirnt screams at 1:58!

[EuGJaMMeR]

See that guy with green-dyed hair in 0:02? Yeah those were the good ol' punk days.Imagine seeing your favorite band while you were walkin' in some random alleyway! xD GD forever!

[dookiecarphotmail]

una letra excelente!

[ozzitou]

dude..

masturbation has lost its fun

[scottw48]

have you ever noticed how billie never sings the "when masturbation's lost it's fun" line?

[KalB971]

yeah ^^ actually he did at Woodstock but I think this is the only time or maybe at older shows than Woodstock x) I don't know maybe he is thinking about the kids in the audience ^^

[xxBrittanyAttackxx]

ya this song is about masturbation lol

[Clarky3493]

Maybe because its still heaps of fun for him? aha who knows

[37thperson]

That's becouse masturbation NEVER loses fun^^ xD

[mwnnramone]

YEAH Billie Joe! Ramones jacket!

[myutubeacc1]

nice crowd

[thenewangusyoung]

Where is my motavat-

[Aloverssoulz]

I love this song!:),very cool.

[DopeSick408]

Ah im a dumbass didn't see the single coils

[DopeSick408]

Not with one humbucker and one knob

[27Riverdale27]

Nice Queers shirt Mike, I have that same one...

[DopeSick408]

Billie's guitar looks like a tom delonge fender

[nothinisavailable]

all strats look like that lol

[JayLacelle]

no, the delonge fender on has a single bridge pickup

[trecool223]

no it got a humbucker pickup on the bridge position. same for billie joe's blue. this one is a fender strat modified by BJ to put a humbucker in it

[JayLacelle]

that's what i said...by single pickup i didn't mean single coil pickup

[trecool223]

oops yeah lol I jsut realised my mistake. sorry

[MotorCityMassacre]

jeez he sure loves his humbucker pickups.

really makes my choice of a guitar hard.... either a Strat with 3 single coil pickups or a Epi Les Paul Junior with one Humbucker at the bridge

[Bubbles516]

having a humbucker really helps with this style of music.

[tomwest114]

awesome, but where is the alley? if a guess i'd guess new york?

[claytobren]

it's in toronto

[laurap19]

Hahah that was rick campanelli from much music

[goldberg32]

[SumDay86]

[greenincubusday88]

fucken love this song and the band!

[JJLee12]

Awesum!!

[VISHMAN14]

Awesome song. But why would they play in an alley of all places?

[tandenpartner]

Ill tell you why

Coz you have to learn how to party

[Greendaydiciple]

because when Green Day was asked to play at the opening of a Tower Records store previously, about 50,000 dollars in damage was done to the inside of the store so this time Tower Records said they could play in the alley behind the store.

[elemantal]

This is actually the alley behind Muchmusic in Toronto
