Well, what a great show!!!

We went to see how it was done properly and were not at all disappointed. We were entertained by the big pink bunny before the show, my daughter managed to pull Billie Joe into the crowd and gave him a hug during King For A Day and I managed to get a plectrum from my good friend Ickle Danny J!! Mike Dirnt and Tre Cool were amazing and Minority was probably the crowd favourite of the night.

They got the kids up during Knowledge again, let the guitar player keep the guitar and got the drummer to do a stage dive, and even got a small kid up to splash everyone with the water pistol.

They had a third guitar player during are we the Waiting and St. Jimmy, while Billie Joe danced around and just sang.

They also used fire, and great stage lighting to keep everyone entertained.. as if Green Day being there wasn't enough!

Great night.
