Tickets sold out in 20 minutes. The intimate space let the band — which routinely plays stadiums — get personal, with the members grabbing outstretched hands, taking requests and crowd surfing.

Billie Joe Armstrong, the singer and guitarist, vowed to play its new punk opera “from front to back”; the often melancholy songs chronicle the lives of a young couple living in the first, tumultuous years of this century. The second half of the show included songs from 2004’s “American Idiot” and older hits, and the audience seemed grateful for the chance to sing along.

I wish I could have seen this =/ Anyone found any videos from that concert? Oh, and this is just a small bit of the review by the way. You can find the rest at: http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/04/...n-francisco/?hp
