Best gig I’ve ever been to !

Really enjoyed the gig Billie Joe was certainly on form. I thought the last encore as really excellent just shows how talented this guy really is. The ultimate Karioki opportunity for the guy who got to sing Longview on stage with Billie Joe must have been one of his all time ever experiences, and he was good as well.
Sadly i was on the back seating right at the top so missed out on a load of stuff etc.
I loved the concert but i still maintain the sunday Gig at Milton Keynes Bowl a few years ago now still takes some topping.

Went to both shows at the LG Arena, and all I can say is wow, truly fantastic, best concerts I have ever seen, Billy Joe is one talented guy.
The band put in so much energy and entertainment they really know how to put on a performance.

Actually it’s the Isley Brothers version of Shout (Parts 1 and 2), though Lulu’s version is great too.

wow what a night-they were out of this world-went with my daughter last night(28th)she has been a massive Greenday fan for a long time-she said it was best nite of her life so far but she was gutted she missed out on all the great stuff happening-not getting involved like some really lucky people did and she wud have given anything to stand at their side-perhaps if they gig again she will be lucky to get closer (we were towards the back) but she has the memories foreva of a fantastic nite-thank you guys for making my daughter very happy-Greenday rock!!!!

i have been to many concerts and i can honestly say this was the most entertaining nights i have ever had. i took my sister who doesnt even like green day and within 4 songs she was singing along! she even came out saying it was amazing.
the lg arena is a fantastic venue with excellent sound quality.

Dude, honestly, the best birthday present I have ever had. Seeing Green Day live is like, a dream. And that came sooo true. I’m really glad I went :) Billie Joe, Tre Cool and Mike Dirnt totally rock. I enjoyed every second of it and I nearly cried when they sang Wake Me Up When September Ends and Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life). I absolutely loved it. If you have the chance, go to their concerts. I loved it. Rock on, Green Day, love you loads.
