Jesus of Suburbia (Guy gets booed off / Kid plays guitar) - Green Day - Chicago 7/13/09

[Punksnotdead211]

dude the song is in c sharp

[Kaitlyn102798]

Right on, kid!

[LetoIIsfangirl]

XD that kid must be really good not to get nervous and to play so well.

[TheJaymes1234]

aww thats so cute! "What key is it?" "G MINOR!" "Okay get your ass up here!"

[SilencedReviews]

@TheJaymes1234 im pretty sure its in D flat or Csharp, no minor

[itsjustmegabby]

ya gotta love the things BJ says in this vid.

"get your ass up here"

"its cute little kid time now."

lmao

[GreenDayandMuse]

NOW i know that its in g minor! uwahahah

[zacmako350]

i feel sorry for him and what is billie actually saying

[JMcKaySV]

Why did he get booed in the first place?

[Punkrockdreams91]

@JMcKaySV He was booed off because he told Billie that he could play the song but when he got on stage, he had no idea what he was doing. I also heard rumors that he was just being an ass in the crowd, but I don't know if that's true or not.

[StaticDoves]

Is his name Owen Because thats my name too

[KhloeMai]

@StaticDoves The kid? I think they said Nolan :L not sure,

[agentxy4]

the guy that got booed was a fucking ass he threw a pick at billie...he gave him his fuccking les paul to use...or is it a strataquater

[jessnee321]

thanks to him at least i know what key its in ;)

[IceCreamLover788]

Lucky bastrard :D im just kidding ... but still il do anything to touch bille joe's guitar :D

[sarahlurveful]

Billie I love you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rickieingle101st]

United Center?



[longshanlung]

poor guy lol

[zaharia00]

Billie joe you MAN !!!!!!!! I love you!

[Warcheif212]

studio version is in D flat major

[gamber22]

OHHH MY GOOOSH :D I WOULD FEEL LIKE A PRO :D

[LifeIJustHate]

If people were me......I would yell "FUCK YOU ALL!!" and then throw bottles at everyone LMAO

[Einfrein]

What do you mean C Major or C Minor? The "Jesus of Suburbia", "City of the Damned" and "I Don't Care" are all in Db Major (which also is C# Major), while "Dearly Beloved" and "Tales From Another Broken Home" are in Ab Major.

The kid played great (especially for his age and nervousness in front of so many people :O). He started off playing in C Minor, which he immediately seemed to realize on the second chord though.

[TheGUNNAR98]

Hes is AWESOME AS F**K! :D

[Mkarch1]

Why would u go up there if you knew you could not play

[stubbztheassassin]

@Mkarch1 probaly so they can talk to them

[TheAGdollLuvr]

Why'd they boo him?

[xXguitardude9Xx]

@TheAGdollLuvr cause he fucking sucked and didnt know how to play guitar

[JuanBautista12]

the lil jappanese kid was better :pp

[guitarmunky100]

JERKS!!!!!!!!

[artembob96]

0:22

I have problem with my eyes or he just slapped Billie Joe?

[TmastaTay]

@artembob96 Yeah I saw that to? I rewinded it a few times, and looked like he slapped him, or was throwing a tantrum. I still feel bad for him.

[Stargate674]

wow dude, that kid is fucking lucky and brave!!!

[tubular829]

soooooo close to him you lucky *****! but thank yew for posting :)

[vagtasticone]

This is why Green Day is my favorite band that I've seen in concert. They've never just sang to a crowd, they always include the crowd and it's an amazing personable experience :D

[blackzabbathfan]

learn to play a C# jackass. god, he wouldn't of gotten booed off if he could actuallu play

[jscott2250]

@blackzabbathfan

u jelly?

[blackzabbathfan]

@jscott2250 oh, totally, no joke

[mushuvve]

I'd probarbly do almost anything to get up on stage with Green Day and play this song on base. :3

[randomactsok]

@mushuvve *bass

[tristandtj]

@mushuvve I think they choose random people at every concert

[rockinkat12]

@tristandtj Probably...

[Jetgui22]

If I was him I would be like fuck you all I don't care if I get booed but I was close To Billie and I held his guitar.

[whatsername1313]

Punkrockdreams91

how did owen get back to where he was before he played? did they take him backstage and just lead him thru the by the gaurds?

[maskproduced]

i feel fuckin sorry for the guy that gets booed off people can be assholes :(

[JohnnyDeSimone93]

@maskproduced then again he shouldnt have tried if he didnt know it xD haha

[GreenDayFan625]

@maskproduced can be? they are!

[stubbztheassassin]

@maskproduced its becos he couldn't play the song

[BulletInABottle]

Worst day for 1 guy turns out to be the best day for another!

[COOLGuitardude17]

the guy that got booed diddent know how to play

[Finsh88]

I just looked away for only 1 second and looked back at 0:32 and asked myself why there is a giant ass? xD

[CoreyMan55]

2 people were that first guys friends.

[Junkpunker21]

People who say Green Day's stuff isn't punk because it's not like Blink-182, Sum 41, Yellow Card, Simple Plan, Fall Out Boy or all these shitty 2000s punk bands basically don't know who the Who, Queen, the Beatles, the Ramones, and Chuck Berry is.

[satancomm41]

@Junkpunker21 simple plan and FoB definately aren't punk. Sum 41 and Green Day are both awesome. 

[artembob96]

@Junkpunker21 "who the Who" lol

[ghostasesjumponit]

OMG i was ther! My friends and i wer joking after that Billie is jesus and we r his followers xD GREENDAY 4 EVAR!! omg that kid was soooooo luky lol " ok get ur ass up here!" XD

[rietje482]

what did the first guy wrong?

[MrGasson]

@rietje482 he couldnt play the song

[codewebgirl]

Who else noticed the lady singing an octave higher? (She was singing really badly...)

[DeviltoGeorgia34]

Db or C# Major, whatever you prefer.

[MrHatenoobs]

why boeed of why he can not play guitar is that a problem??!!

[faceflatonthefloor1]

@MrHatenoobs they booed him because they wanted to play

[MrHatenoobs]

@faceflatonthefloor1 o now i get it thnx

[slinkysattackatdawn]

fucking love that song!!!!!!!!!!!!

[johnnyjj8396]

Xskierx55 that's what she said

[TriTech64]

Ladies and gentlemen, MIKE dirnt.

[x0MissDeadbeat0x]

i mean atleast billie joe interacts with the crowd :D !

[MrPunkydrunky]

doosh bag should not agree to play if he CANT play!!!

[connorpwnsatlife78]

I dont feel sorry for him at all. He threw the pick at Billie

[TheAGdollLuvr]

@connorpwnsatlife78 OOOOOOOOOOOH he threw the pick at him! I thought he slapped him!!!

[GreenDay1160]

He didn't even deserve to touch billie's guitar.though i do feel kinda sorry for that fucking ass.get embarassed in front of thousands of people.

[MrPudster1]

"What song am I talking about"?

"Jesus of Suburbia"!

"What key is it in"?

"G minor"!

"Okay get your ass up here"!

[AstrophelTDeath]

@MrPudster1 In D minor not G minor.

[nightwalker118]

@AstrophelTDeath how can you figure out what key its in?

[AstrophelTDeath]

@nightwalker118 I don't know that kid is wrong, its actually not a minor at all its a Db major. And you can tell this because usually in most cases the first chord of the song is what key its in. And all the other chords being played in this song are all in the key of Db. If it was in the key of C it would contain no sharp or flats. Which is the case since its in standard tuning. Even if it was tuned down a half step it would simply be in the key of D major. Maybe the kid said D major,

[AstrophelTDeath]

@nightwalker118 billies guitar was tuned down one half step. But still he said minor, and thats just not the case at all.

[nightwalker118]

@AstrophelTDeath thanks for replying, when I just thought he was wrong cause I knew it started on a Db

[AstrophelTDeath]

@nightwalker118 Oh your welcome, sorry for the long reply. Music really is a difficult thing to understand. Too many pieces to finish the puzzle. I hope it helped. Peace.

[nightwalker118]

@AstrophelTDeath i know its in D, but why'd the kid say C?

[HKDrider]

"that kid is lying so bad"

[IfuckinLuvBillieJoe]

well the kid shouldn't have said he knows how to play it when he obviously doesn't!

He don't even know what chords the song starts with.

..but it's all in good fun right? music is suppose to be fun. The crowds are just mean.

[unduswaffel]

@IfuckinLuvBillieJoe obviously i mean anyone would want to get on stage!!!!!

[Ladypeacemaker1995]

Poor guy!! :(

Green Day For Ever

[douglasdude]

i would actually leave the concert if i was booed off.

[SubsidenceMusic]

Awesome! : D

[XxNiMr0D7000xX]

did he say E minor or G minor ? Hahaha fuck that shit, I would be like Im not great with names of notes but I can play the damn song PERFECT ! " And i would give him the biggest hug ever !!!!!!!! Just a question, Can you sneak up to the front if you buy tickets that are not near the front ? like can you sneak to the front ?

[MetalXDFreak]

@XxNiMr0D7000xX Yea u probably can but i will take a while because its like trying to cross mexicos border but with people

[Dawe5full]

the guy booed off made 6acc and dislike this..

[GreenDayBabe500]

dumass... why the fuck would you go up there if you can't play it? :p

[jeremiahjetjet]

oh i watched a better version of the video but this is funnier . . but i feel bad about that guy

[jimmyPain2121]

this makes there music a lil less gay...

[fabioadias]

I fucking love Green Day for this

[TheFrodzz]

what does billie joe say before he sends the kid offstage

[VenomFangTV]

The people booing that guy probably couldn't play it either so they're all fags.

[liveandletrock864]

@VenomFangTV but they werent douche bags who thought it would be funny to waste everyones time by going up anyway

[ivysdave]

Power chords aren't minor or major. The song is in C#maj I think, at least most of it.

[MrCruelworld]

why did he get booed off? and btw there's no difference between C minor and C major if you play it using power chords..

[Coldod23]

get those fists in the air! thats what she said!

[katherinekeast]

wow. i love billie joe. (:

[Siomonte]

I fell happy for this Kid, he expirienced to be on a stage and rock tha FUCKING HOUSE :D

[GreendayXroxmyXheart]

[kcvk9]

[NINJATWINKIE]

[Maidenfan4497]

[vintage514]

Do u think he would let me play on stage if I know the whole song only from tabs?

[cheeznizt]

@vintage514 sure but it wouldnt sound right and that probably what happened to this kid

[xSkierx55]

I have a feeling that he just wanted to be up there for the sake of being near Billie Joe and touching his guitar. :)

[GreenDayGreece1320]

@xSkierx55 haha yeah i think so too.... i'm thinking in the next concert to pretend to be playing guitar too so i can hold his guitar in my arms...! haha!

[xSkierx55]

@GreenDayGreece1320 But they'll boo you off xD Start practicing now!

[GreenDayGreece1320]

@xSkierx55 hahaha yeah probably! at least i will say to my my grandchildren : " I once touched billie joe's guitar! "... :p

[TheDavidaidancharlie]

[Orbitdog1]

[procrastinator300]

I don't get why he got booed off thought

what did he do?

[SomeWhiteNerd]

@procrastinator300 he didn't know how to play.

[procrastinator300]

I thought this song was in C# major

[Joeker38]

[sixstringjake12]

[hurleymccann16]

Yeah it's in C sharp major.

[emirates259]

[F0xyTh3F0x]

Jesus of Suburbia!

Cminor!

Alright, get your ass up here.

[Bullet4MyA7X]

ahhhh man i feel so bad for the first guy... he probably cried

[breakdownidiot]

wait, why'd the first dude get booed off?

roflmfao, the second kid is really good

and hes fucking lucky

[SuperDookieness6000]

billie probably didn't pick you cuz u had a camera lol

[timetowakeup00]

the kid that COULD play it goes to my school

[jesusofsuburbia1818]

the KID IS PLAYING MY THEME SONG!!!! lol

[123theater1]

IDK why I dont like the music from today. Hell Ima 20 year old and im into the old thrash 80s metal and grunge in the 90. The only new band thtat I like is TRAPT. Hell I dont even like the new metal bands execpt for lamb of god. But stuff like trivium and Bullet from my valentine is just pure gay. its like Metal with parental controls. IDK.

[bloodrain744]

wow i feel bad for the first guy but like, if ur gonna get up on stage, u gotta know the song u cant just try to get a last minute lesson on it. but if i were billie joe id be a little more nice about it tho. he was just kind of a smart ass about it.

[omjurmom96]

y'd they boo?

[MRconner84]

could the first kid not even play or something

[killer231233]

lucky ass!!!

[skaterandaarfan4ever]

the first guy got so pissed i think he threw Billie's guitar pick on the stage floor, but the kid that actually played was awesome.

[PokemonAlakazam555]

that 1st guy sure dont like GD anymore

[newmilleniumband]

What do you mean guy gets booed off thats BILLIE JOE ARMSTRONG!!!

[Koni1342]

fucking rednecks they are a disgrace to punk and greenday

[laidbackx3]

haha cute lil kid time

[funkytonkyz]

i think its C sharp major then it turns to G sharp major near the middle then back to C sharp major in the end.

[XxMatt1313xX]

but he still played it pretty good for a kid on stage

[bakerXderek]

@XxMatt1313xX especially under all that pressure

[MIkeCampbellCKY]

He did play it a little flat. It was definetly minor.

[MonsterxSGx209]

cute little kid time! lol

[FoopJohnson]

ha consolation prize

[Punkrockdreams91]

Roflmao!

MORON YOU SPELLED "YOU" AND "SUBURBIA" WRONG!

Dumb ass... get the hell off of my video lol

[Illidan803]

@Punkrockdreams91 you spelled suburbia wrong too in the beginning of the video lol

[kassysue111]

And Billie said he wanted someone who KNEW how to play up there.

He was an idiot to go up and not know how to play. I was there I was booing. Ha.

[GDchick13]

@kassysue111 that just proves how much of a redneck asshole you really are. maybe he DID know how to play but when got up there in front of 1,000+ people, he got really nervous and forgot. it takes ALOT of guts to be able to get up there in the first place, let alone play. i'd like to see YOU do that, douchebag!!

[MsWibb]

cool dass ihr so cool seid, voll fett un so

[12kohl]

@MsWibb na du deutscher^^ bin ich also nich allein híerxD

[ibecoolyo24]

i remember that!!! he was really good! and the other guy a true shame to chicago

[timetowakeup00]

the second guy-- the kid is my friend

[rikuvsmegaman]

i would Tazer myself to get billie's junior i'm not kidding

[smileatthebunny182]

He must have felt like shit after getting booed off.

[easy236]

@smileatthebunny182 yup, he wuz PISSED

@smileatthebunny182 Tell them to get a life!!
