New Years, live-ish with Green Day

Green Day

I've gone to far too many events this past week. If I don't put an end to this quick, I may be­come "nor­mal"…

I took it to the next level tonight, though, by trav­el­ing into the fu­ture to see Green Day's New Years Eve con­cert at LA Live. Well, sort-of. NBC was film­ing the con­cert with Car­son Daly as the host. They gave us all new years hats and had us all count down from 30 as if the ball was drop­ping on New Years Eve. Ap­par­ently they'll air this then. TV Magic!

After the count down, Green Day came on with a "Happy fuck­ing New Year!" and rocked the stage for the rest of the night. Their per­for­mance was com­plete with ex­plo­sions, fire­works, and a good mix be­tween their newer stuff and the older stuff I was lis­ten­ing to on tape when I was eight years old (holy crap) in el­e­men­tary school. Bet­ter yet, a friend I hadn't seen in ages was down to visit fam­ily for the week, so I met her and her broth­ers there and caught up. Good times!
