Show notes

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: "Long before it set out to be some important band making rock operas, Green Day was just a trio of American idiots. Exhibit A: the band's eye-popping spectacle at X-Fest, during which Billie Joe Armstrong joked, 'I'm the king of punk and heavy metal all rolled into one.' To demonstrate, Green Day barrelled through songs from 'Dookie' and 'Insomniac,' with Armstrong ending up in just his leopard undies, which is more than the singer from Jimmie's Chicken Shack had on when he crashed the stage. It wasn't over till bassist Mike Dirnt toppled his amps and smashed his bass and drummer Tre Cool doused his kit in lighter fluid and torched it. Amid the wreckage, Armstrong sang, 'Hope you had the time of your life.'"
