Generalfrivious’ new avatar brought back some memories. I saw the Get up Kids open for Green Day back in ‘98 or ‘99. I don’t remember much about their sound, only that during their show the keyboard stand broke and so that guy had to sit Indian style and play the rest of the show and my friends and I all wished their album sounded like they did live. Green Day put on a great show. We were front and center. Audience was wild as hell. Remember when American audiences went to rock shows to go wild and have fun? I miss that. Green Day dipped deep into their repertoire- even played Christie Road! One of my friends has a great pic of Billie Joe right up in the camera cheesin’ and givin’ the bird. Good times.
