[KoinkydinkQuadricorn]

@LiverpoolHell66 The one that you're calling checkers is Jonathan Gallagher Jr. He was also Moritz in Spring Awakening

[admiralflynn895]

[hillmanhuskey1970]

give the drummer and the guitarist some credit they do all the hard work

[SeanCorcoran97]

[Pazrayna]

@SeanCorcoran97 I dont think so.

[comicalman83]

@Pazrayna he was in the broadway run for several performances as St. Jimmy but not in this particular video

[LiverpoolHell666]

I dont know what the guy in the checked shirt's called but his voice is terrible Stark Sands on the other hand has a pretty good voice its not strong but its better than Checkers shite voice.....im definatly not going to see this disappointed isnt it.

[Abc123Clo]

[Abc123Clo]

Its great, yeah actual GreenDay would have been better but its amazing, its rock gone theatre, a pretty brave move...and it works!!

[TokoKitty]

The original is so much better!

[joehasaface]

Has no-one pointed out the irony of singing American Idiot ("one nation controlled by the media etc") on America's Got Talent?

[pcarmojr]

ualll magnifico,até choro de emoção!!espetacular,amos vcs GD

[xxdinosawsxx]

where the fuck is billie joe armstrong?!! instead of the gay glee crap

[StoneBeezt2]

@xxdinosawsxx what are you talking about? its a broadway musical, not a glee club. I have the album and I like some of the songs better with the girls singing them, its a great album.

[itsayskeds13]

I saw this in the fourth row, on Billie Joe's birthday, and he let me touch his hair (lol) if that's not lucky, someone tell me what is!!

[VenomConnection]

Okay this is soooo amazing!! But what makes me even more happy, is the one of them is wearing a Scott Pilgrim shirt!!!!!! :D

[SoProudlyYours]

ALL PERFOMANCES ARE EPIC!!!!!! WHO ON THE EARTH COULD DISLIKE THIS? I MEAN...C'MON! HAVEN'T YOU HEARD THE VOICE OF JOHN GALLAGHER JR.???? JUST...BREATHTAKING!!!!!!!!!!!

[cmonty72]

@vanillayoga1563 LOL.....I'm an architect.

[paleontologojv]

[Apocaskybanzz]

I like how they cut out all the swearing in the singing but at 2:34 they scream FUCK

[Ty13rlikespie]

[paulpofficial]

The subliminal mind FUCK America! It sounds weird when they leave it out...

[ILuvBillieJoe2004]

Rebecca looks freaking crazy and John Gallagher Jr needs to love ME

[eisnergurlzz58]

[ComedyCrewTV]

Broadway, You're in for a treat! (:

[phil23ize]

im getting to like broadway...ahaha

[SpidersMoment]

am i the only one who is disappointed with the cheesey dance moves and hand gestures?

[flubberdedubberbebub]

@SpidersMoment no, your not the only one. when i saw this on broadway, my 55 year old mother thought it was offensive :P

[greendrocks]

@SpidersMoment i agree with you. they are kinda cheesy. but its broadway, what do you expect? american idiot was the best thing they did.

[msUsmarine]

Whose on drums ?

[MG21749]

i love the ending of letterbomb, tonight TONIGHT TONIGHT TONIGHT!!!! love it!!!!! <3

[Keopro]

The one directly on Whatsername's right in Letterbomb is sooooo hot. They're all amazing.

[thunderous42]

is that green day playing the music at the back?

[MiSe454]

@thunderous42 No, it isn't

[incognito84]

@thunderous42 Definitely not. Green Day only plays in front :)

[oughtumn]

What in hell...

[benny63005]

Imagin how proud green day must feel just whatchin this.

[Vexoxo]

Whatsername has an AMAZING voice <3

[XxXLeahKennyXxX]

I'm in love the guy's voice who sings that part "maby i'm the fagit america, im not apart of a red-neck agenda" <3333 I LOVE IT

[Apawneck]

@XxXLeahKennyXxX Brian Charles Johnson, I believe!

[TheMARKTHIS]

try to dance like that :)

[Zildjianownsabianaha]

Don't change the lyrics please...

[DC11961]

@Zildjianownsabianaha Well Green Day are the ones who arranged all of the musical, so this is all theirs. :)

[doctorwhogirl77]

I love this so much! Wish I could see it live.

And I'm not gonna lie, I would so turn lesbian for her. :]]

[rockclimber21]

these people have had too many singing lessons. I appreciate their effort, though.

[blogbuscanombre]

I saw John Gallagher Jr. in Spring Awakening and I didn't find him especially attractive, but with this look... OMG!

[bert872]

I don't get it, the album is so old.

[KnowledgeLandVideos]

I love all of the broadway versions, but the actual American Idiot kinda sucks. Letterbomb is amazing, but you'd think they could pick something a bit stronger to promote. It is the title track though...

[Christinagreenday]

aaaww.. I WANT THE ORIGINAL CAST BACK DAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Loldean]

Letterbomb is amazing, but american idiot kinda sucks in my opinion.

[Hard93100]

She has biger muscles than me ^^

[headwhop26]

This shit is terrrrrible. God, I like Green Day quite a bit, but this is an insult to punk rock everywhere. The guy who sings the first lines of American idiot BLOWS.

[rockspider0]

@headwhop26 John Gallagher Jr. has one of the best voices in the world. I love Green Day, and love all of their music. Just because it's sung by someone with musical theater training doesn't make it bad. It's just different.

[headwhop26]

@rockspider0 Well, I'd argue that just because its different doesnt mean I have to like it. Music is about as subjective as it gets, and Im just not really a fan of it done this way. And I think thats okay.

[JuliaCosette]

john gallagher jr is a hottie <3

[thetruthneverdies34]

i saw this live and got 4 rows up so i was right there and it was so amazing i got whatsernames auto graph (letter bomb girl) and they were so amazing im not gonna lie everyone NEEDS to see this show watching this they are good but compared to the show they look like shit see the show get tickets right now and be amazed by the amazing message and the great great show

[xBellaPattinsonxECx]

I really want to go see this. Ugh... They are so amazing. No wonder Green Day was so proud. =D

[LeianaASV]

3:51 He's not joking. If this computer wasn't sitting on my lap, I totally woul've been up.

[CaptainCrane]

Something about the power of theatrical performance and the sophistication of the chorus makes the music SOOO much better than Green Day's original. I actually really want this cast recording.

[SaneylaFragata]

FUCK YOU Jonh Gallgher Jr and your gay's voice ! you ruined everything !

[ToYourFavoriteVideos]

@SaneylaFragata NO FUCK YOU!!! He's got what I would call for an AWESOME SEXY voice!! And, what is it that he ruined??..... THIS IS FUCKING AMAZING, I was dancing and singing the whole time <3 xD

[gospelflava91]

I may b waay off here but in my opinion the girl @ 1:41 looks identical to emily on make it or break it?!?!? is that her?

[carlybolton]

@gospelflava91 no its not

[gospelflava91]

@carlybolton ok thanks

[MrZcornett]

Love this cast!! Rebecca, Stark, John, and Michael do a great job!! The ensemble is awesome too!! Would LOVE to be in this musical!

[jessrush1]

The middle guy is a great singer......but does anyone else think his dance moves look like he has to pee?

[merbethmango]

@jessrush1 I don't think so. I love that guy. His name is John Gallagher Jr. That's just the way he moves sometimes.

[jessrush1]

@merbethmango

Okay, but I just love his voice :)

[merbethmango]

@jessrush1 yeah .... me too :)

[sammrose1]

@jessrush1 its part of his character

[GreendayXroxmyXheart]

I remember watching this on T.V....... my favorite singers are Rebecca and can anyone tell me the name of the guy on 2:02 he is an AWESOME singer

[nycld96]

@GreendayXroxmyXheart that is michael esper. he plays will in the show

[GreendayXroxmyXheart]

@nycld96 thank you :)

[brittmstar]

I love how you can tell that Esper is trained by the way he stands when he sings.

Also, I hate to refer to him as this but I forgot his name...the chubbier one with the amazing voice, I love how adorable he is and how amazed his is looking around...this is def. still hitting him. He's new to this...I can tell.

[bwaygurl105]

@brittmstar

That's Brian Charles Johnson, and this is his 2nd show. He was in the original Broadway cast of Spring Awakening.

[brittmstar]

I'm so in love with Esper...

[pdddg]

like it :)



[FancyFancyName]

SCOTT PILGRIM SHIRT. Nice.

[ellencalvo]

If you ask me, Green Day did themselves good by releasing the play. They made their point clear while still being unconventional. Now if they had signed for a movie, then I would have been pissed.

[Keopro]

@ellencalvo I'm pretty sure they confirmed that there will be a movie too. But that's based on a few sources with no video evidence so I could be wrong.

[XsarahXsavageX]

Am I the only one who think she's adorable? And she is so nice. :)

[merbethmango]

@XsarahXsavageX Somebody actually had THE NERVE to tell me that she, Rebecca Naomi Jones, is fat. Do you think she's fat ? i don't think so ! I think that she is healthy. Sure, she's not stick thin. But she's not fat. She's perfectly in the middle (average) and that is healthu. When I get older, I hope that I am as skinny as she is.

[hockeytaint22]

that is disgracing green days music

[merbethmango]

@hockeytaint22 Oh really ? because they are the ones who directed the play. i don't think that they think that this is disgracing thier music at all.

[brittmstar]

@merbethmango I agree with you about it not being a disgrace...but they didn't direct it...Michael Mayer did, but they wrote the book and created the music. They were very involved in the process. Also, Billie has been in it and he's going to be in it again, if he was so ashamed, why would he be a part of it?

[merbethmango]

@brittmstar i know right ? some people just need to catch up on some green day research. haha

[TeeMontague]

WAKE UP!!

[LagwagonX8]

i got to see this last sunday when Billie Joe was playing St. Jimmy... it was incredible

[Zezima459]

@LagwagonX8 Lucky!

[goepinflames]

@LagwagonX8 wasn't he great? ahahah

[zazkita]

they will come to mexico :)

[ninjapixieful]

Im seeing this in october cannot wait!

[rocknlassie]

i really wanna c the show i'm desperate, but can't get 2 america from scotland :-(

[XxXLeahKennyXxX]

i wish i could go to new york and see this musical but it's too much money to fly from ireland!!

[lemonbutterslice]

@XxXLeahKennyXxX Exact same position!! :(

[20Jesuslives12]

im mad that the biker is out he was my favorite

[tomboyunicorn15]

OMG I WANNA SEE THIS ON BROADWAY SO BAD! I saw this on America's got talent and almost cried because of the BEAUTIFUL harmonies they were doing. The song sends such a message too!

[purplestar5204]

@tomboyunicorn15 They sound even better when they sing 21 Guns. I cry every time I listen to it :)

[msatothen]

Thank you so much for uploading this!!!! I want to see this show so much it physically hurts!!!
