Green Day & U2 at the Orleans' Superdome

[Careful With That Axe, Pichu!]

Have you seen it? U2 and Green Day performed together at the New Orleans' Superdome for Music Rising, supporting the affected by hurricane Katrina.

Some of the songs were: Wake Me Up When September Ends (GD with Edge) The Saints Are Coming (Originally by The Skids) and Beautiful Day (U2's anthem on pop culture besides Elevation...).

From what I've heard, a single will be released too, and that would be The Saints Are Coming.

Only thing I could say is that Billie Joe can't sing Three Sunrises.

Otherwise, it was a great performance. Noteworthy of arena rock bands. :D

It was okay i just didn't think it was that great although i am a greenday fan

Ah, i used to like G.D.....their older stuff...not into their pop-punky stuff.

Thats exactly how i feel i mean nimrod and dookie were great albums but american idiot is not that great except for the songs holiday, letterbomb, jesus of suburbia, and saint jimmy those are good

Stay on topic, this thread is not about Green Day's discography... Discuss their performance with U2 at the Superdome. =D
Anyways:

Same, I just don't know why did they play that one. It's like Led-Zepp playing Ramble On, XD But they did succeed to replace BD's mainstream-ness with it... o.o

Websites are making a big deal out of Wake Me Up... with Edge, in my opinion. Only if guitars had more protagonism in that song...

Billie Joe doesn't even play lead on Wake Me Up... it's still pretty much the same thing and Edge just added his melodious flavor and add some trumpets and it sounds awesome.
