Ramones Cover - Green Day plays "Outsider" Live @ CBGB April 26, 2001

After a successful night at the California Music Awards in 2001, Green Day headed down to the New York club, CBGB's. The trio originally intended to support a friend, former member of D Generation, Jesse Malin, by watching a show performed by his recent band Bellvue. But Green Day would never pass up a chance to do what they do best, perform.
Just after midnight, Green Day took the stage using the equipment of the last scheduled band of the night, Tiered, to play a very drunk and spontaneous unscheduled show.
The set ended after 2:00 am and included old material such as She, Longview and Welcome to Paradise and a finale of Minority, their latest hit at the time. A few cover songs (Mahogany, Outsider and Surrender) were also thrown in.
Billie Joe commented about the performance later in a question-and-answer session about the performance. "I felt like it was in the tradition of how you play a place like CBGB's which was going to see your friend's band play but you actually end up on stage" he said, "I think if I was to walk away from a CBGB's experience, that would be the ultimate way to do it." Tre quickly added "You can check it out at www.greendaysreallydrunkplayingatcbgbs.com".

I am a huge longtime fan of Green Day.. they are like my fave.

But I wish Green Day went back to this style.. I really really don't like the new stuff after American Idiot.

@minecraftday Hey buddy from GER!! You replying to me is like the awesomest thing all day!! x) Wasn't "Not So Silent Night" a concert fest? No actually I didnt know - but i did look into it dude, those songs are from prev. albums [pre American Idiot] See, Jane's Addiction was headlining the concert, and they punkd out last minute. As a result, Green Day was swapped in last minute and saved the day!! =] Pretty Awesome Though. BTW Your English rocks! Sorry for my fucking horrible German!!
