Am I the only one that sings “On my own here we go” out loud whenever I watch a live version of Brain Stew on video? It’s like a Pavlovian response I can’t help it 😂

Of course!!

Disappointed they didn’t play any 1972 songs. But maybe they did at soundcheck? Please tell me at least someone snuck a recording

This will go down as an all-time show for sure. Incredibly lucky and grateful to have witnessed it! Thanks for reading and feel free to ask any questions you may have. 

Did you get to see if they sold any special merch? Like a show poster or anything.

Watched some of it and I’m surprised how well some of these songs hold up. I like Warning but I wouldn’t expect it to be a highlight of a show in 2022. Same for TDTD or Murder City. Whatsername was a crazy emotional performance

Whatsername is one of my all time favorite Green Day songs, if not my favorite period. Haven't had a chance to watch anything yet, but I'm looking forward to seeing them play that song again. :wub:

Thanks for uploading that videos in 4k!
I also just noticed that She and Still Breathing from last year were re-uploaded in 4k. Thanks for these also.

There was one special shirt and a show poster. I think someone posted a a screenshot of the shirt, captured from Green Day’s IG story, further back in this thread. Both the shirt and the poster had sold out by the time the gig ended.

What a show this looks to have been.  I cannot criticise them for playing the hits, that’s what the majority of ticket holders at big shows want but they played some of my favourite songs on Friday, sounded great and seemed to have fun.  I would love a deep cut tour.  Whatsername seemed a tad fast but awesome!

does someone know if this was professionally filmed? would be a shame if that wasn't the case.

Probably. They film everything for archival purposes but very little ever gets released. They have pro film of the FBHT shows and it makes me insane that we’ll never see it

I think we’ll eventually see a lot of it when they retire.

Well now I’m torn because I’m not in a hurry for that to happen

Do you mind if I ask for the original file? This would be a great addition to the downloads section!

Still can't believe that setlist. So cool! Really hoping they do a club show in the bay area at some point. Who knows if that will happen but I'd do ANYTHING to go to that
