  • Wtf was Mike smoking?

  • i like it

    \0/

    abraço!

  • Aw, Billie and MIke look so cute hair. It certantly is a change to see them so young, but they were Green Day than and will forever be Green Day and have the same attituedes and thats why I will always love Green Day and they will always be my most favorite band in the whole world. And just a PS: Billie, I love your curly hair and the way it comes out over the top of your cap, its so hot and adorable!!~♥ Love this song to, and love every single song by Green Day as will~

  • Im 14 and i dnt like Green Day because its 'Cool' i always get told that Green Day are crap but I think there full of it. Green Day's music for me is more than just a catchy beat or a good riff, there songs can relate to you in many ways and they make you feel like you are more than a loser like u may be to other people. I love all there albums except 21st CB that was going a bit out of there range as a punk rock band but from 1039/smoothed out slappy ours 2 American idiot are awesome albums

  • Oh My GOD Billie was freaking hot...without the tattoos and guyliner...WOWWW *drools* I love this song

  • Comment removed

  • I just realized how hot BJ was (and of course, IS)

  • Nice Skateboard Mag hat Billy

  • It's so weird seeing them so chill live

  • You have a point about American Idiot, that it lost some of the emotion and power that their older albums had. Yet, without stuff like American Idiot, there would be a hell of a lot less Green Day fans. I found out about Green Day through American Idiot. If I had not found Green Day (when i was 10) i would probably end up to be a macho, Guido asshole. the same would go to a lot of people with out the the stuff that drew people in to becoming Green Day fans.

  • Mikes hair is awful! :D

  • My fave albums are in this order: Dookie. 39/Smooth (purely for the awesome solos!) Insomniac. American Idiot. Nimrod. kerplunk. Warning. 21st Century Breakdown. 21st CB is last coz...you know there is not enough tracks that you can rock out to. I hope their next album is filled with kick ass guitar solos or fast paced stuff like on Insomniac.
  • in four years you'll be playing at the next woodstock billie joe/mike dirnt.

  • @SimplyCosmicMuffin well WRONG!!! listen to bands like Nofx they are older then green day and are still punk as it can be

  • lol im never gonna want kids now (im going to make a band eventually)

  • @SimplyCosmicMuffin yeah dude... you can't be almost 40 years old, have a 15 kid, and still write about smoking pot or masturbating, musicians evolve

  • Why do people over-exaggerate whatever Billie Joe's wearing now? I mean, he has eyeliner and people keep saying "Wow! Billie Joe is wearing eyeliner!" and stuff like that. If they wore eyeliner during these times, nobody would react like that.

    They're awesome here!

  • hat head!

  • My band and I write songs that are like these songs not like the american idiot crap and everyone is like "why dont you write songs like american idiot? you love green day." i simply reply "yeah i love green day. But i write songs not shit."

  • Did Tre go to their school?

  • no tre didn't join Green Day till their second album Kerplunk! when this song was done their drummer was John Kiffmeyer also known as Al Sobrante. i'm pretty sure that's who was playing the drums in this video.

  • my aunts friend was roommates with him its about her :D!!!!!!!!!

  • really?

  • @MG21749 yea or my aunts friend was close with him one of those two.

  • @smexiemuffin96 lier.

  • @Pasalaqcua ok sure

  • that guy that walk across the camera @ 2:27 looks like Bob Saget lol

  • obviously.. here is 1990.. but a guy asked the age

  • Good song =]

  • i love how he introduces the song :D

    and DANG!!! that is the worst hat hair i've ever seen in my life!! but billie works it :D

  • ah he looks so good with that hat heh

  • Is that.... The OTHER guy?

    *shudders*

  • yep, its john kiffermeyer

  • billie joe was 18, and mike was either 17 or 18

  • how old r they there?

  • they're class 1972..

  • like 17, 18

  • 16 years ago, so Billie Joe was here 21.

  • 16 years from 2006, when the info from this video was put up. so 18, cuz he was born in 1972 and this is 1990 so hes 18.

  • look at the date of this youtube video moron

  • oh my god billie joe is soo cute.

    oh dear lord. :)

    i hardle ever say this but,

    nice body. :)

  • is that the original "blue"?

  • yes

  • my fav of all the greenday songs

  • i love coming to these old green day videos and see how this is "true" punkers territorry and how much they hate american idiot.. even though i couldn't care less about what they fuck they think

  • hahahahahaha hat hair! :D <3

  • yup that's sure true

  • so much better than new greenday

  • green day are just the best by far

  • Its good to see them when they were young, and at their best!!!!!!

    But their still fucking great!!!!!!!!!

    Can't wait to buy the new album in may!!!!!!!!

  • I LOVE GREEN DAY ALWAYS!!!

  • old green day waz the best

  • this song is so great!

    the best guitar solo...i think...

  • This is what Green Dat shoud play not like American Idiot punk. :/

  • 1039 is the only greenday album I own.

  • they can do and wear whatever they want they started doing this to play music and thats what their doing making great music

    i love all green day!

  • LOVE IT *-*

    <3

  • I love this song!!!!!

  • American Idiot is ok. Their old stuff are the best. But why did Green Day(mostly Tre and BJ) have to wear eyeshadows? They were great without it and they don't need it to look cool. Plus it makes them look emo... No offense but i don't like emos

  • I heard American idiot first but I Think Their Old Stuff Is way better

  • @billyjimbobjones same here. I heard American Idiot (song, not the full album), but heard the story behind Dookie - laughed my ass off. I bought that album, and that was all I listened to for a whole summer. Longview also got me into bass. :P

  • is that a Michigan State hat?

  • exactly i actually had American Idiot and then like the nex few monthe, I saw a bunch of little wristcutting morons listening to it and I was absolutely disgusted with it.

  • i don't think you can be disgusted with the album though... just be disgusted with the people

  • You guys are hypocrites. You complain about people overplaying the songs while you guys (and me for that matter) were all part of that

  • American Idiot is good...but it's just not..GREEN DAY!

  • I'm sorry but American Idiot sucks. About every other album has at least one god song on it, except Idiot

  • every other Green Day has AT LEAST one good song?! with Kerplunk and 1039/Smoothed Out At Slappy Hour, I'm in love with almost every song! And that goes for their other cds too, but early Green Day is much better.

  • Ohh well who cares? This song is good. The solo is more then 3 notes. And yeah a lot of their early stuff is good.

  • Song's don't need to have solos' to be good. Infact, I prefer them not to.

  • @SimplyCosmicMuffin @grungesponge489 in defense of at least one of those 'little wristcutting morons', i found out about them in middle school during the american idiot craze. i now own ALL of their CDs (minus a few EPs, but oh well...). warning and 1029 smoothed out slappy hours are by far my favorites... not all fans who found out about them when they got popular just liked them to be 'cool'. in fact, liking green day was not cool where i was... so stfu kthnx...

  • @SimplyCosmicMuffin I love everything Green Day put out, and I don't mind all the new fans, as long as they don't like them because they're 'cool', don't think that their a Pop Rock band that started in 2004 and that they're similar to Good Charlotte and actually bother to listen to Dookie before saying they're a fan.

  • I don't think you can blame American Idiot. Personally I think it's a great album and radio and other media decided the songs were catchy enough to overplay on the radio and mtv channels, but that's not the band's fault. It's nice that more people are exposed to Green Day, but I'll agree that way too many of them claim to like the band simply because it was "cool" to say so.

  • Hat Hair lol!

  • who cares if they're punk? grow up

  • i totally agree with SimplyCosmicMuffin

  • whered you get this

  • It's sad to see a sold out band when they were good.

  • you're really pathetic and shallow to think that

  • They're great here.

    But then they get signed. And they make meaningless records they didn't write. And it goes to their heads. Whatever, I'm not going to argue about fake music.

  • hey stupid. they write their own music. People would know if someone else was writing for them.Sure they got signed, but that was onto a production company that recorded for them and helped a little advertising and got their music out there.

  • they signed to reprise records, they write their own music.... lol

  • i'm glad someone sees it the right way round

  • their records aren't meaningless they write all of their music just bc it's more sophisticated think just a bit more thn you would after a fix doesn't make them fake, they're the most humble people in celebrity & they care more about the rest of the world than the majority of anyone w/ loads of money sure there's teeny boppers out there who don't know jackshit, but the band doesn't use it to some sick advantage they're good ppl, write outstanding music & care about the important things in life

  • no

    they are not punk rock any more

    back in the 90s they were great

    Dookie was a classic

    now its just crap

    they are not punk rock any more

  • I don't really care what subgenre you want to label them as. Who gives a shit about a genre title? Genre does not say anything about who the people are behind the music. They're still great - in a different way. The true fans are the people who can see the brilliance in their first EPs & Dookie as well as in their more recent records. People change - the world changes - but change isn't a bad thing. Change is just something different.

  • ya im not a true fan

    they fucking sold out

    they suck now

    the whole and i mean whole music industry is just terrible now

  • you just say that 'cause you want to say that you are punk, and you copy what the others say...and i'm not saying that you like them...but you guys seem to have necessity of saying that they sold out...we know but we don't care...

  • wow ahah your such an idiot

    i am not at all punk

    you should care because before they were good and now they suck

  • trimags are you one of the old fans from the lookout label years that felt betrayed when they went major

  • I didn't insult you so you don't have to do it... you're just going even deeper, and i won't fall to your level...

    I was giving MY opinion, and what i think of people like you...you gave you're opinion, too.

  • they are punk you just feel sorry becuase you cant get a ticket?

  • Gotta' love them old school Green Day Billie Joe guitar solos.

  • john is left-handed ?

  • I think I'm gonna POP

  • if anyone has 1039, go into the lyrics book and you can see a picture of billie joe with long, curly, black hair. mike has long, straight, blond hair. he's also hanging upside down. and john is just sitting there. best picture of the old band ever!

  • listening 2 this actually made me search 4 the album on amazon....how sad..

  • good old 90's

  • Yep...I was there..sorta. I was half ignoring them. But I'm glad they've been successful.

  • that's cool :)

  • Lol...I actually remember this day!

  • seriously!

  • this sucks

  • you're face sucks.

  • oh my god...three nerds

  • three very successful nerds.. well we at least know 2 of them are

  • his voice is soooo cute!

  • HEY is the old drummer left handed i mean during after the chorus he plays the ride with his left

  • This is when they couldn't afford good equipment, wow. Still it's Billie, he hasn't really changed in years.

  • i still liked warning.....and their first of course

  • What amp is billie playing?? anyone know?

  • it looks like a fender head through an ampeg cab, but wut do i kno

  • well then you dont have to post that then.

  • lol

  • R etards

    A ttempting

    P oetry.

    copy and paste to a rap song you dont like.

  • what about a rap song i do like?

  • (\__/)

    (='.'=)

    (")_(") Green Day Rox my Sox!

  • green day changed in the first place because they wasnt punk ... listen to billie joe's solo and the backing vocals its not even in a punk key.

    i prefer this older more raw green day but all there succsess came from dookie which is a punk album with hardley any guitar solo's in it

    they changed because people were telling thm they wasnt punk

  • ummm they were an underground indie rock band lol. I can still call it punk lol

  • hey take it easy, im not a huge fan at green day, they're doing a lot better now a days, I know for a fact, because the american idiot album sold over 800, 000 copies, and their bullet in a bible album was one of there biggest concert ever, ( no duh)and i just said that for shits and giggles lol

  • Milton Keynes National Bowl Concert (the concert they made bullet in a bible of) was the most amazing concert i've ever been to.

    the fact that they can involve the crowd and still playing amazing music is one of the most comendable things.

  • green day used to be so much more like punk rock band back then!!!, Green Day rocks

  • they're still a punk rock band

    just because they've gotten older, have families, and are more mature, doesn't make them any less punk.

    okay, so their not poor little garge kids anymore, but they've earned everything they have.

    they're not any less punk than they were when they started sweet children.

  • they're more kick ass rock now a days, but yah u got a point , they're still punk, and they've made it a long way, they only really had one kick ass album, american idiot, and i guess "dookie"

  • Tre joined them circa 1991-1992...this is John Kiffmeyer aka Al Sobrante

  • john went to college (leaving the band) and then they found tre. John is like doing recording stuff i think

  • ele ainda não tinha nenhuma tattoo

    :B

  • lol ahhh sucha big difference. mike has long brown hair, not short dyed blonde, mike isnt wearing all black and spikes. billie doesnt have black hair and black eyeliner on. his guitar isnt low lol and he doesnt have the all black on either. this is the first time ive ever heard a rock solo out of him, tho it was a punk song i dont think i'd call that his normal punk solos either. amazing how much people change.

  • nice hat hair Billie... that was cool

  • Hey, did anyone realize Billie is playing with his wrist and not his shoulder?

  • To add to that, his guitar isn't nearly as low as it is now.

  • playing with his shoulder??? wtf!!!!

  • look at more current videos, he has his guitar at his knees and is putting his arm practically straight down, using the shoulder up and down.

  • The drummer is Tre' Cool. Al Sobronte Was the drummer from '87 to '89. And even if it was Al, Neither is left handed. His right is your left, and vice versa.

  • that isn't Tre` Cool. Its Al/John. I know Tre's face, and that isn't it. I'm trying to be fresh or anything, but in the beginning they show a good shot of the drummer's face. Pause it there, then you can tell that it's John.

  • yeah i know it's john.

    this video is from a long time ago, when they were much younger, probably soon after they'd completed that song and they played here. so it had to be john. tre wasn't a part of the picture yet.

  • Oh yeah, I know. I was just telling the awesomeone14 cuz they thought that it was Tre.

  • theawesomeone14, john joined in 1989. In 1987 it was sweet children, which inlcuded the 2 members mike and billy, only them. then 1989 - john 1991 - tre

  • 1987 john joined, 1985 billy and mike started playing together creating sweet children. Changed name in 1990 because another band had a similar name. Changed ti to Green Day for their fondness with pot smoking, spending 'Green' days, just being high all day lol

  • wow this was an old comment of mine. i was an idiot for saying that.

  • Oh god, did you see al sobrantes drums? very alternative, he is left handed

  • i meant the whole good quality pinole video

  • oh well that i dont know :P

  • anyone have the whole good quality version of this?

  • yeah you can get it on 1039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hours; the album comprised of their EPs

  • his name is john kiffmeyer

  • ah i was close =P

    f instead of p

    i used to be a real stickler on all the green day/sweet children info, but i'm losing it a bit haha

    still love the band tho =]

  • So Green Day had a change of 3 drummers before fixing with tre cool?

  • 1 other 1 was named sean hughes or somthing like that he come along before john kiffmeyer and then after john it was some other guy that left saying he wansnt good enough dont no his name though

  • was tre the drummer ?

  • not at that point, i'm pretty sure it was john kippmeyer or whatever his last name is

  • yea thats it. they only had 2 drummers, al sobrante is john whatsisfaces stagename

  • no it was al sombrante

  • john kippmeyer is al sobrante

  • haha he has hat hair! :p i love him though, so its okay =)

    and you misspelled daughter...well...a typo...just thought i should let you know

  • ... no i didn't...

  • i meant in the discription, but it doesnt really matter, so its okay...just thought i'd point it out cuz im that type of person. don't worry about it though, because you are cool enough to post this video, so its okay =)

  • ohhh haha you're right i did >_< whoopsi

    =P

    thanks!

  • no problemo haha

  • Alright alright shut up
