American Idiot on Broadway closing night, SURPRISE GREEN DAY CONCERT p4.

[@SinDelleMorte]

You know... I avoided anything to do with this musical for so long because even though I've been a Green Day fan for 20 years, I thought it would be stupid. I was totally wrong! That was awesome!

[@TheBukoStudio]

I'm a broadway freak and Phantom of the Opera used to be my favorite musical but after I've seen American Idiot, this is now my favorite. :3

[@mamamiafitness]

Dude those broadway kids are so damn lucky! What a great show to be a part of!

[@Linus76]

Is it just me, or is the cast, even here as pretty much audience members themselves just bring so much insane energy to the enjoyment and love of this music? Like double or more of their performances even? Completely caught up in the energy and emotion of it all. Its so beautiful.

[@cjhooversd]

I mean…it’s almost 15 minutes, so it really is a mini concert. But they did “Jesus of Suburbia,” so it’s just one song. The emotion of this is just overwhelming. These songs already meant so much to me, and this show made them matter just as much but in a different way, and I’m just so grateful that this show ever existed.

[@sunnyrose94]

You rock SO HARD for getting this on tape. Seriously. Do you realize how many hundreds, probably soon to be thousands, of fans are grateful to you for getting this on film and uploading it? Thank you so much!

[@chella822]

thank you for holding your arms up so long. this was so kick ass to see!

[@flamingmeatloaf27]

Did anyone else notice when the camera turned to Tom Kitt that Lin Manuel Miranda was next to hom? Those two are such bros, and it's adorable.

[@GamingSaturnMoonManBoy]

Loose Cannon Cop Who Doesn't Play By The Rules I did

When

[@mcigloo]

@@drasonmeerrkat2617 around 2:32

[@angelcakess9561]

Fucking awesome. One of the best live performances I've seen on youtube for sure. Blonde girl in the back going ape with the short black dress = essence of digging a live show.

[@allisonfayth9480]

I really really hope this musical comes back to the states before too long. This is just a musical I would absolutely love to see. I love Green Day and I have been a dedicated fan for the past 6 years; I have seen them in concert twice but this just seems like an experience like no other. I could not keep my cool. Haha

[@largeposterior08]

I see you at 2:38, Lin-Manuel Miranda :)

[@TylersWolfGirl4evr17]

Awe... I was hoping he would do St Jimmy for one last time :( He will always be the ONLY St Jimmy!!

[@MattJM96]

I was there that night. At 14 years old. I’m 27 now. Thanks for the upload and the Great memories you awoke here 👌🏻

[@ATBeatsProd]

I would fucking kill to be on that stage!

[@NickKrillin]

When Billie Joe Armstrong bows to YOU, you know you did something fucking right

[@Jenxietoo]

Thank you for sharing these and thank you for not just focusing on Billie. It's great to see all the cast rocking out!

[@drizzter1374]

This is one of the most magical things I've ever seen

[@gailizcool]

Thankyou so much for posting these videos!! :D I loved how the cast were all dancing and rocking out! ahaha libby was rocking out the most!!

[@Philosphyfanatic]

(Singing to the tune of Favorite Son) - I saw American Idiot, Three times in the past year! To what the critics who bashed it said, I really don't care! It was an awesome show, Billie Joe is my hero! He is the greatest man! Thank you with all my heart for posting this so we can watch this amazing celebration!

[@jordanmcmahon4256]

This makes me so happy! I saw the uk version 3 times in the space of 2 weeks

[@Sunshels]

@Jenxietoo I agree! I have seen lots of videos focusing on Billie, and I wanted to see the cast. These videos are great thanks so much for posting them. I sat home last night wishing I was there and then I saw these this morning. Perfect!

[@Scsigs]

Hope they get that fucking movie off the ground.

[@Scsigs]

Turns out HBO's producing the movie!

[@arcade3198]

watching this is so unbelievable. the raw fucking emotion in this whole concert but especially with this last song. you can’t help but look at them and think this is what it means to really feel alive huh?

[@MsFlute13]

@whatsername1313 Tom Hulce an American actor, (best known for his Oscar-nominated portrayal of Mozart in the movie Amadeus and his role as "Pinto" in National Lampoon's Animal House), and theater producer. In 2007, he won a Tony Award as a lead producer of the Broadway musical Spring Awakening. He is also a lead producer of a stage adaptation of the Green Day album American Idiot. I think Billie is singing a bit of Mozart when he speaks of Tom Hulce.

[@poisonghoul]

I swear Gerard has so much energy for a small guy

[@AskaGreenDay]

thankyou so much for these videos! especially this one - I think it's my favourite ever video of JOS. It just captures the everything about the musical for me, the creation of one big family not just between the cast, but between the fans as well. I'm gonna miss the St James theatre, but the memories I've gotten from times spent there I will treasure forever. Also, 7:15 - 7:23 has to be one of my favourite things ever :D

[@ashleeny6]

Thanks so much for posting these! Mind if I ask what Mike said he's a fan of around :50? I can't hear it well, ha.

[@dvdbllrd]

@MsFlute13 thanks, I remember Danny Kaye very well. He was quite an accomplished person, including in many areas outside performing.

[@Taencred]

This video brought me to tears. Really yeah, I love them THAT much.

[@buffalobillschicago]

Jesus of suberbia one of best songs ever

[@allykayyy2683]

*longest

[@wickedclownking1000]

Those chicks in the back were going fucking crazy

[@pedro7401]

Thank You Meghan

[@curlywavy18]

It was like a freaking mosh pit up on that stage. lol

[@MeghanSmo]

@PunKZ1991 billie did the same thing the whole time, there's video's of him everywhere. but unless you were at the theatre you will never see the cast's reactions, hence why i focused on them the most. ya know?

[@hannahsugs]

love this, thank you so muchh! :)

[@whatsername1313]

COMPLETLY AMAZING!!!!!!!

[@kewlbns69]

does anyone know if they're going to release this on dvd? i mean they're touring and they'll be in my town in december but the wait is already driving me crazy! xD

[@MeghanSmo]

@AskaGreenDay you just wrapped up my feelings for this video so nicely haha thank you

[@MeghanSmo]

@kpurejoy82996 if you don't know the musical then your not an idiot haha the blonde with the short hair is Mary Faber and she originated the roll of Heather in the musical and then the long blonde hair is Jeanna de Waal who took over the roll of Heather in the show when Mary left. The reason why they are singing that part is because in the show that's Heather's role.

[@dvdbllrd]

@MeghanSmo I think he says (in reference to knowing a lot about musicals) "I'm a ?something? gay man" Thanks a lot for posting this.

[@wchabot321]

this is awesome

[@luv1000]

Ha ha ha!!! Micheal can ya help me out a little bit cause I don't anything about musical's 😅😂🤣😀😁😃😆😂🤣

[@luv1000]

They had alot of fun😂🤣😅😆😁😄😃😀Good to see!😂🤣😅😆😁😄😃😀

[@dvdbllrd]

@MsFlute13 I saw them in Camden too. I expect it will be a while before they hit the road again.

[@MeghanSmo]

without rewatching it I'm going to say John Gallagher Jr. If he has glasses and a plaid shirt then I'm right haha He was the original lead of the musical

[@dvdbllrd]

@MsFlute13 Right, that's the very first part of Mozart's Eine Kleine Nachtmusik that BJA is singing.

[@MeghanSmo]

@Jenxietoo you're welcome! i figured if other people were filming they would focus the most on Billie so I thought the cast was being pretttyyyy entertaining.

[@GreenDayisAmazing]

That looks like fun! Did you guys get to stand-up and jump around?

[@dvdbllrd]

@MsFlute13 The videos came from MeghanSmo -- I appreciate her putting them up too. I've seen GD a couple of times, during the last tours, but didn't see AI. I was in NYC the last week of AI, for my birthday, but we went to see That Championship Season instead, which was very good. It's at the Jacobs, on 45th, so on our way to that theater we walked by the St James and saw everyone lining up and getting psyched for the AI show that night (Thursday 4/21)

[@callmebyyourcarl]

I am in love with you for posting this I went for the third time on friday, we knew right after we bought the tickets we should have done sunday, but it was already sold out :( Green day must have a concert soon, you're so lucky!

[@luv1000]

This was BETTER than the musical 😂🤣😂

[@Mike-wt7jq]

They made punk post core alternative fun!!!

[@MsFlute13]

@kinggagkk Besides liking Green Day & alot of rock, I studied classical flute, so I'm familiar w/Mozart. I saw the movie Amadeus. Thanks for these videos! Saw AI in Jan & April 16 w/Billie Joe, but wanted to see closing nite!

[@dvdbllrd]

@MeghanSmo good choice, the cast was having an infectiously grand time and I'm happy to watch them

[@davidmaxshort]

@MeghanSmo He said Mike's a huge fan of musicals

[@MsFlute13]

@kinggagkk sorry, yes I see you didn't do the video. I saw GD in Camden in Aug 2010, can't wait to see them again.

[@tonychuk14]

The girl was so high XD

[@MeghanSmo]

@JKbotc2 yeah theres shots of him in the other videos

[@vaguelyexhausted]

Whoever that woman in the black dress is on the side, I wish I was her lol her energy is fucking incredible

[@cpduhe]

@actionPactPolaroid To be fair, they did rehearse this song every day for months.

[@dvdbllrd]

@MsFlute13 Actually, if you look at the photo of Danny Kaye at Kaye's wiki page, he and Mike Dirnt look a lot alike!

[@MsFlute13]

@kinggagkk Danny Kaye was an American actor, singer, dancer, and comedian. He was in many popular movies & rumoured to be gay.

[@whatsername1313]

@kinggagkk i didnt even know there was a accessories maker!

[@adrianhard8691]

no one that bald guy: 👁️👄👁️

[@TanyaUchiha]

Was everyone from the cast (past and present) there?

[@jaimeanne6923]

it was John Gallagher Jr

[@salvatorecapece9396]

100100

[@ashleeny6]

@micdelp Oh, thanks! I heard the "Kaye" but couldn't get the first name.

[@MeghanSmo]

@sunnyrose94 no problem, i know if the situation was reversed id be killing for these videos, sharing the love :)

[@MsFlute13]

@kinggagkk never thought of Mike looking like Danny Kaye funny!

[@jimsters2]

Ha ha he says the f word enough lol but Green Day is still the best

[@smosh9976]

3:15

[@MeghanSmo]

@GinaAtherton you're welcome!

[@Taencred]

@Jenxietoo lol, I was gonna say, "Who the hell wants to see the goddamn cast all the time!? Focus a little more on Billie for christs sake!"

[@MeghanSmo]

@JKbotc2 yeah at 3:58 they pull him on stage

[@bahlsakc9595]

Where’s Jason? 🤨😂

[@bahlsakc9595]

Wait I found him 😁😁😁 7:13 , 8:40

[@whatsername1313]

@MeghanSmo ikr?! but still,it was pretty funny when billie was like da-da dada da-da duh da lmfaaoooooo

[@whatsername1313]

@kinggagkk omg!no he said "im a-"think it was-"a kaite kay fan" not a gay man,lol.."im a katie kay fan"

[@MeghanSmo]

@whatsername1313 omg i have no idea! im gonna google it cause that was my thought exactly hahahaha

[@aniballobo2805]

que payasada

[@07Crossfire500]

6:40 love it

[@MeghanSmo]

@gailizcool haha the cast was INSANEEE

[@Taencred]

Sure, but that doesn't mean that you have to focus on them 90% of the time, that's I'm saying.

[@whatsername1313]

i think he says im a danny kay fan...

[@dvdbllrd]

@whatsername1313 Katie Kay the ladies accessories maker? I doubt it. I'm pretty sure the last word is "man" Danny Kaye man? Anyway, knowing a lot about musicals is pretty familiarly associated with gay men -- shoot, a lot of the whole drag queen demimonde is built around that. Given the context, it would not be a big deal for Dirnt to say something like I suggested, tongue in cheek. but it will remain a mystery I guess.

[@guada3709]

Pero necesito q alguien hable español,ah 😂

[@ClaudiaTorres-yl8sk]

Yo jjajajaj

[@Den.Zhdanov]

оооооps nobody next to IPhone ))))

[@MeghanSmo]

@ashleeny6 i was right there and i have no idea so if anyone else knows thatd be lovely haha

[@MrTreCoolismine]

[@Sophieste163]

3:42 - ohmygod libby, you are so, so drunk, i love you honey

[@guada3709]

Guau! no body speak spanish here!!!

[@dvdbllrd]

@whatsername1313 katie kay -- the ladies accessory maker? I doubt it. Maybe Danny Kaye man. But the last word is "man" I'm pretty sure. Knowing a lot about broadway musicals is something historically associated with gay men -- shoot, a lot of the whole drag queen demimonde is built around that. It would not be a big deal for Dirnt to say something like I suggested in that context and would make perfect sense. But it will remain a mystery.

[@whatsername1313]

whos tom holskins? i lmfao when billie was like da da da da-da-da

[@tylerb3911]

is that what they call emo dancing?

[@yepmcyeppington]

80% of the time you were just recording the actors/actresses...

[@Kurgosh1]

There are thousands of videos of Green Day. There's only this one set of the musical cast partying and dancing and having what looks like a fantastic time.

[@Mike-wt7jq]

This is not emo 😂😂😂😂

[@diamond19971]

I love this show too bad it cloed

[@123tEz321]
