"Can I sacrifice your firstborn child?"

Thu Jul 16, 2009, 10:41 PM
That's what Green Day's singer/guitarist and frontman Billie-Joe Armstrong asked one of the mothers in the audience at the concert. He called the kid up onto the stage and, speaking with a "preacher's voice", pretended to sacrifice the kid, with the apex of his little speech being: "And we will see how Godless a nation we have become." Which then ended up with the band launching into the song "East Jesus Nowhere".

(Warning*: random ramblings about the concert ahead)
Green Day puts on one hell of a show! Constant crowd participation, with Billie-Joe pulling random fans up onto stage to sing parts of songs. One kid even played most of Jesus of Suburbia on Billie's guitar! And he did a freakin' good job of it too! Damn I bet that guy is one happy mutha. Got to freakin' play with freakin' Green Day on Billie's freakin' guitar @_@

This one guy that they had sing "Longview" was told when the song was over, "The only way to get off this stage is a stage dive!" And so he did a stage dive into the crowd, and crowdsurfed for a long while xD I love how GD does that kinda stuff. Definately one of the best concerts I've ever been to.

Songs played: they opened up with (of course) "Song of the Century" & "21st Century Breakdown". Then they played "Know Your Enemy". And after that I can't remember the order xD They played "Before the Lobotomy", "East Jesus Nowhere," "The Static Age", "Are We the Waiting" & "St.Jimmy" (HELLSYEAH!!), "21 Guns", "Longview", "Brain Stew" & "Jaded", "American Eulogy," "Hitchin' a Ride", "King for a Day," "Holiday," "Blvd of Broken Dreams," and "Minority" was the last song. Encore was: "American Idiot" and "Jesus of Suburbia" (HELLAYES), then "Good Riddance."

Hah, before they played "King for a Day" Billie came out with a police hat on, and said "This is the Hamilton police." (everyone boo'd). He went on a ramble for a bit, saying how the concert was over and we all had to go home (or something similar to that anyways) and ended up saying, "But don't worry, you're gonna be happy 'cause..." then he kinda trailed off and said: "You know, I don't even know what I'm saying. xD" He'd been trying to tie in the police act with the song, like he'd done with the child 'sacrifice' with "East Jesus Nowhere". In the end he couldn't think of how to do it and it was kinda funny xD He's still awesome though.

I got a poster and a T-shirt and I am very very happy
