I went to the Green Day concert last night in Tacoma, WA
My favorite part was before the show... a drunk pink bunny holding a beer (spilling it all over) dancing to YMCA and Ramones.

My other favorite part was the constant ripping on GW Bush.

1. Why did you mistake it for a play or political rally?
M-U-S-I-C?

2. Did Billy Joe kiss any guys?
Someone told me he gave someone a wet, sloppy one when they saw him in concert.

Looking for corroborating evidence of any kind. I didn't think he was the type to entertain any 'groupie' rumors.

4. Yes. He took people out of the audience to 'create a band'
Had a drummer, bass player, and guitar player. The guitar player just turned 20 (birthday). Before getting on the stage, he was asked if he ever slept with a woman. The kid said no, which was followed with "Well, you will tonight". Went up on stage, played a while, got to keep the guitar, and got a kiss planted on him. LOL, it was funny.

8. that's standard for them
creating the band...they've done it at every show i've been to and i'm always envious cuz i've got no musical talent...

but i'm always so happy for the kids they pull up on stage cuz you know it will be a story they tell for the rest of their lives

9. Yeah, we were talking about that at the show.
They had damn near the most audience involvement that I've ever seen. I can't remember a concert that had more.

3. i just saw them in denver
nothing like 20,000+ rigid fingers in the air at the sheer mention of W's name...

i also went into conniptions when they played '2,000 light years away'

they are one of the few bands i will see over and over (this was my fifth time)
