I saw...... Green Day... yesterday.....

OH MY EFFIN GOD. I didn't know that they were so damn good live.

I went there waiting with my friend at 9 AM. It was freezing and we had like big blankets around us. There were actually a lot of people before us which was actually quite surprising but actually it's nice to see that people are into Green Day here.

Then about 1 PM it got warmer! And after a lot of waiting we got in about 4 PM. And then we waited a few hours and then the support bands came. I actually really liked them :D The Hives really rocked the place with their trying-to-speak-finnish-correctly-and-funnily parts! Their songs were real nice.

And Joan Jett and the Black hearts. Well they played really well and I actually knew a couple of songs by them :P It was pretty good! I was just a bit too eager to see GD so I kinda missed some of the songs.... :shifty:

Yeah like I said I was eager to see GD and what happened then - a pink bunny (well a person in a bunny costume) entered the stage and started dancing. YEAAAH that's what I'm thinking. Something what I really wanna see before the actual band - a pink bunny :rotfl:

 

But holy crap when Green Day came. When the Song of the Century started playing we all I mean WE ALL went crazy. I was screaming so loud that I have kind of a sore throath right now, which is nice cause I'll go to another gig tomorrow. Yay.

I loved all the songs they played and I actually knew them all. Kinda pathetic huh? Being worried if I don't know any songs? I know it is people keep saying about it to me but well that's me. I wanna know the songs 8-)

B2T Green Day was crazyyy! They seemed to be so excited and it really seemed like they were having fun there! I loved all the lyric variants, y'know they like put the word helsinki to almost every song they played. It was seriously amazing to see them a few meters away from me and yelling "HELSINKIIIIIIIIH!!!!!". Such an amazing night.

Oh yeah I forgot to say I was in about 5th row. Quite a good place I think 8-)

They were so nice to the audience too. They took a few people to the stage with them which I think is very rare for bands to do! I was really impressed with that.

And yeah what else. Yeah there were a lot of pyros there! And on top of everything there were FIREWORKS. Unbelivably awesome! We all got a heart attack when they first came. It was so awesooooooooooooomeeee

 

My message was kinda crappy. I just said what I knew heh. But hey the started playing 8:30 PM and it ended 11:15 PM. A long gig gotta say!

 

And I gotta say one more thing: one of the best, maybe even the best, gig I've ever been to! (tho my feet still hurts and i have a sore throath haha. well worth the pain!).

 

Oh and hey here's the setlist:

 

Song Of The Century

21st Century Breakdown

The Static Age

Give Me Novacaine

Are We The Waiting

St. Jimmy

sounds great huh? Oh yeah I didn't take pictures. I'm a liar I took 4 pictures and they all were crappy. I think taking pictures in a gig - so boring it kinda kills it at least for me. But gonna share one of them with you cause I want it to have attention. Heh clickit!

 

And 4 other pics. Which are luckily not taken by me!

 

ONE TWO THREE FOUR

 

And yeah I do like the first one. I was like ":shifty::willy_nilly::rotfl:" when I saw that. So crazyyyy.

 

 

So here it is. Green Day @ Kyläsaari, Helsinki 6/8/2010. Me and my essay which no one is gonna read. Haha, here you go folks!

I've been in SUCH a Green Day mood the past few days.

Last night after I seen two old videos of them an interview by Much Music came on TV and after that a couple of their music videos for a half hour. It's on right now again and I can say I'm definately not bored of it. Love these guys.

Really wish I was seeing them this August...

 

Also, The Tony Awards are on. Whose watching it to see them perform with The American Idiot cast? The musicial is nominted a good amount at the Awards tonight. Fingers crossed they win. I mean, how could it not!?

 

PLUS JOAN: Your pictures are AMAZING! I love Billie in those red pants, hahaha. He wore the same outfit again at the Tony Awards tonight. Glad you had a great time! Great setlist I must say aswell.

Loved Green Day at the Tony's tonight. They killed it as usual. Glad to see Will Smith bobbing his head along to the music.

 

It's definitely a Green Day time of year. I'm getting excited for the summer tour, and I've been playing Green Day: Rock Band nonstop. So good!
