Green Day - Jesus of Suburbia, The Spectrum in Philadelphia

  • I miraculously got picked to play guitar for Jesus of Suburbia, and here's a clip that one of my friends at the show graciously recorded while I was onstage. To answer some questions up front:
    1. Billie asks me going into "Dearly Beloved" if I can sing, and I say to him that my mind is racing (which it was, trust me), at which point he mouthed the first words of the verse to me to keep things rolling. He does the same thing for the next verse.
    2. Right before "I Don't Care, Billie runs up and points to the guitar, because I'm not playing the chord progression as it should be played. I was harmonizing with Jason White by sliding up octaves, but that wasn't how it was originally recorded.
    3. I woke up the next morning and my left knee was killing me. I have no idea how I hurt it, but it's jazz, baby.
    And yes, I'm in a band called "Bang Diesel Express. Our influences include Weezer, Muse and Incubus, among others. Throw all of that into a sonic blender and you're close to our sound. Become a fan and download our music for free on one of the following pages:

      +Andy Campion they look smaller cause the neck is a bit different positioned or so but the size is actually the exact same of other Les Pauls or SGs

    The pure joy on his face, Billie’s reaction to the playing, the unemployed line, and best of all the random guys face taking up the whole screen at the end. I love all of it man 🤘 hell yeah
