33 years ago (21 December 1991), Green Day played The Den in Wigan, England.
"Right before the first song, I Was There, the band did the Nativity Play, starring Billie Joe as 'three schizophrenic wise men', Mike as a narrator and Santa Claus, Tre Cool as Virgin Mary, Sean Hughes as baby Jesus, and Sean Forbes of Wat Tyler as the Easter Bunny."
@Dingle I'm sure everyone would love to hear more about your experience at that show if you feel like sharing.

On this day 33 years ago (22 December 1991), Green Day played the Wheatsheaf in Stoke-on-Trent, England.
"One of the most unlikely must be Green Day at the Wheatsheaf in December 1991. Of all the gigs I saw at the 'Sheaf it was the only time the bands played in the smaller upstairs room. I didn't know GD and only went along because I was friends with great Stoke hardcore outfit Exit Condition who were the support. It turned into a storming night with at one point Billie Joe playing while lying on his back in the middle of the floor." – Snowdog
"I saw Shutdown play with Green Day at the Wheatsheaf in Stoke-on-Trent. I remember thinking that Shutdown would be going on to great things one day. I didn't rate Green Day that much... Funny how Green Day are now millionaires and Shutdown never got the recognition that they deserved. I'm interested in hearing their new project The Great Leap Forward though." — Paul
Green Day for £3.50 in fucking Stoke-on-Trent... I've never even been there and I don't live that far away.
