Green Day with The Smashing Pumpkins, Rancid, and The Linda Lindas
Their career-spanning 37-song set has sent audiences worldwide into pandemonium, and now they're bringing it back to The States.
Celebrating 30 years of Dookie and 20 years of American Idiot, the band played both albums in their entirety, along with cuts from their latest critically acclaimed 14th studio album Saviors. Green Day's Saviors Tour has been the talk of the summer and serves as a testament to how the band continues to shape, inspire, and modify pop culture as we know it.
Green Day's electrifying set kicked off with the blazing opening chords of "The American Dream Is Killing Me," bringing the crowd immediately to their feet. Armstrong then introduced the next chapter of the setlist with a passionate shout of "Welcome to the 30th anniversary of Dookie!!" as the opening chords of "Burnout" filled the stadium. Cools' signature thunderous drum solo only added to the stadium's seismic applause. Dirnt's distinctive signature thumping basslines riled up the crowd during fan favorites "Basket Case," "Welcome To Paradise," and "When I Come Around," before a 42-foot-long inflatable Dookie plane - ripped right from the album cover - dropped a bomb (or two!) over the crowd during "Coming Clean."
After a rocking playback of Dookie in its entirety, the band kept the energy alive and played their smash hits "Minority" and "Brain Stew," along with cuts off their latest sonic masterpiece Saviors, like "Dilemma" and "Look Ma, No Brains!". Armstrong's powerful vocals commanded the stage with as much energy as he had during the band's inception over 30 years ago.
The setlist finally reached 2004's juggernaut, American Idiot. Known for its politically charged lyrics and rebellious spirit, Green Day's killer performance of this album in the heart of the nation's capital hit differently. In true Green Day spirit, Armstrong swapped out the title track's lyrics with "I'm not a part of the MAGA agenda," inciting stadium-shaking roars from the crowd.
~~~~~~~~
Green Day redefined punk rock in a post-grunge world. Rising from the Bay Area punk scene in 1987, the band released several EPs before coalescing into their long-standing lineup of vocalist and guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong, bassist Mike Dirnt, and drummer Tré Cool. The trio shared the independent album Kerplunk in 1991 before releasing their major label debut Dookie in 1994. Behind singles like "Longview," "Basket Case" and "When I Come Around," which each topped the Alternative Airplay chart, Dookie reached No. 2 on the Billboard 200. Dookie earned Green Day three Grammy nominations, including a win for Best Alternative Music Performance, and the album continues to stand as the band's best-selling release with over 20 million copies sold worldwide. Green Day followed with 1995's Insomniac and 1997's Nimrod, with the latter boasting the band's biggest creative shift with the rare acoustic single, "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)." After 2000's Warning, Green Day spent the next few years developing their first of several ambitious projects, the 2004 punk rock opera American Idiot. The album became Green Day's first to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, and it logged two Top 10 singles with "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" and "Wake Me Up When September Ends." American Idiot garnered seven Grammy nominations and won two, including Best Rock Album. The band won the Best Rock Album Grammy again with 2009's concept album 21st Century Breakdown. A stage adaptation of American Idiot debuted on Broadway in 2010 and won two Tony Awards and a Grammy for the cast recording. Furthermore, Green Day were first-ballot inductees to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2015.
