Ticket Stub Tuesday…Round Twenty-Eight:
The summer of 2009 was phenomenal as far as concerts were concerned. I was able to see my top three bands: No Doubt, Green Day, and Blink 182. I also saw the amazingly talented Jason Mraz. Too bad, I haven’t really been to any since then! (That’s so unlike me). Green Day is one of the few bands that straddles that punk/rock/pop threshold that are actually great live. I’ve seen the likes of Fall Out Boy, Panic! At the Disco, Good Charlotte, etc… and none of them have the stage presence that Green Day exudes. They are true performers through and through.
The last time I saw them in concert was in 2004 when they co-headlined the “Pop Disaster Tour” with Blink 182. Since then, they had released the Grammy Award winning album, American Idiot and the highly successful follow-up, 21st Century Breakdown, which was what this tour was supporting. I was very excited to see how they have matured as performers as their new material is pretty heavy, focusing on issues such as living in post-9/11 America.
As excepted, they were fantastic and did not disappoint. Playing material new and old, they took to the stage for just under two of the fastest hours of my life. When you become accustomed to playing an album on repeat, you’re not used to how quick each song actually is.
My good friend, (and former co-worker), Mandy accompanied me to the show. We had seen several concerts together, another one of which was also at Madison Square Garden. We always have a wonderful time together, and this was no different.
