I wonder what kind of star he wished on to get to live a dream like this?
petchynab95
Seen them live 3 times. absolutely unbelievable atmosphere every time
DadBodPorVida
Ive always fantasized about this happening to me at a 311 show. Im 0-12....so happy for this dude tho.
ImgurDoc
At the end of the video he's basically
SigmaSenior
Not a fan of Green Day but this is badass of them to do
Momolicious
You beat me to it. I've never met another nonfan of Green Day.
HenryInTwoForks
I love Green Day, and this is nice for that guy, but three chord punk songs are really easy to play.
CaptainDju
I don't disagree, but he was also singing along and jumping all around the stage, which is not exactly as easy as one might think.
hoxanator
This happened at a Green Day concert I went to in the late 90's. The dude had a red Mohawk. Shredded.
zanoii
I think they do it a lot.
BusterRantCasey
This legit happened to my brother at the Scottish festival T in the park. He knew they did this so had a sign saying bassist.
catsandguitars
2003, Eagles Ballroom Milwaukee - Dude jumped from 2nd story balcony, crowdsurfed to stage, and played a song with Green Day. It was wild.
DidItForScience
I was at a show where a guy jumped from a 2nd story landing. Everyone parted and let him hit the ground.
kaymon
You can tell it's a band that got started in the 90's. The hand/phone ratio is wildly favor of hands.
floyasmina
fartsandwitches
Am I the only one who wants to see someone called up on stage, totally bomb, and then get asked to leave mid song?
doctorninja
That pre-song kiss on the cheek is really nice.
sociopathmaniac
Pretty sure he asked if he could play it too
PillDicker
"Can you do 'When I Come Around'?"
ICanBelieveItsProbablyMargarine
Thats so freaking cool man. What a once in a lifetime moment to rock out.
TheresAGermanWordForThat
Less likely to happen at a Steve Vai concert.
CrabWallet
Yeah, first thing I thought was "lucky most of your songs are mostly power chords and down strokes."
bricksonbricks
Thought it said killing him... Got real nervous
sexnando
he was slayed.
Somanyquestions
His life will never be as awesome again, so he's dead in a way.
DougForcett
This video has so much 90s nostalgia it just called me a middle aged loser.
BootsNCatsNBootsNCatsN
I don't believe in Beatles; I just believe in me
daytimedrinkingincoffeecups
Wow, just saw the video. I laughed, I cried, it was amazing.
MyRegularAcctIsntAnonymousEnough

I hope somebody took a photograph so he can still frame it in his mind
HousePest
Surely he'd hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
ladybird2223
The kid found the video on the youtube link. He's in the comments for it.
ScotlandSaysFuckYouLongshanks
I spent the last 3 minutes looking at the 2nd gif ... The strumming looks like When I Come Around ... I'm sure I'm right!! Finger crossed!!

are you a superhero?
ScotlandSaysFuckYouLongshanks
I'm Scottish ... So ... Yes!
clearwall
What happened to him after he stage-dived? I dont see him come back up...is he ded?
wormfood
I was there. The crowd tore him to pieces and kept his parts as souvenirs. Then Greenday was transformed into a metal band by Satan
YouFckinWotM8
Sounds like Dethklok to me.
imawreck
Hail Santa
TekPriest1975
Fuckin' crowd parted like the Red Sea...an' he went SPLAT!!!
RabbiShmuley
Green Day has been doing this for years and I think it'd great. Let not freak out though, it's three chords.
Aximilli
THANK YOU! I don't want to take away from this guy's moment, but with Green Day songs you play them or you don't, but you can't 'kill it'.
waterbucketsandsparetowels
Green Day songs are simple, I think thats half the appeal. Its not hard to learn Im just happy they still seem to enjoy what they do
MenTarK255000
Pretty sure if I could play guitar and I was asked to get up I'd just play wonderwall. Regardless of the band or genre of music being played
planewreck
this is the funniest god damn comment I've ever seen on this fucking site fuck you
BarracudaJones
Better than GD.
lowbike1
That would be pretty funny!
OutlawGerman
"anyway guys... Here's wonderwall...." "No, no, no not it's not it's RAW METAL DEATH PUNCH!" "well, all I know is wonderwall. So..."
3dartwork
IT'S A TOUGH SONG TO PLAY PEOPLE, GOSH! I PRACTICED FOR A LONG LONG TIME TO GET IT RIGHT. So shup
MenTarK255000
We asked you if you knew our song... ♩and i said maybe♩
DidItForScience
Haha, it would be great if the band knew it and went with it. I know I would if a fan did that. (I don't have fans.)
Carmichael106

Apparently imgur doesn't like a 140 character "smooth." But that was hella smoooooooooooooooth"
Ryebread91
Bracing for the train of hate here but what's so special about wonderwall?
tlilsmash
.
laroline
It's a joke because people always play that song and think they're the shit and kinda edgy
GiraffeicsInterchangeFormat
Holy shit, he let the fan play Blue...
erokoshay
Isn't this what happened in "rockstar"?

zackkatty
myles kennedy anyone?
Celebrimbor
He's easily my favorite vocalist in metal
CapnJackHarkness
Same. And my wife and best friend both hate him because he's screechy, and it tears my heart apart.
ForgotAboutIt
He does great work with Slash & The Conspirators, but personally I think Rod Jackson does a better job with Slash's style.
madbydesign
Billy Joe's gotta take a piss
MelfsAcidArrow
And to Judas Priest?
Ryebread91
What's that?
Twinklepot
Nickleback do this with their 'rockstar' too : ) The guy who sang it in Dublin on 9th Oct nailed it!
mrpickles86
Rock Star http://imdb.com/rg/an_share/title/title/tt0202470/ is what he was referring to i believe
Twinklepot
Indeed yes, you are correct. It was the post, plus the term 'rockstar' that inspired my own comment : )
DicksMcChuggins
Twinklepot likes Nickleback!
Twinklepot
I know! It's a very unpopular thing alright. Don't care. Love 'em!
BarftheMawg
I still don't know why people hate them. I like a lot of their songs.
thedro2911
I saw Green Day in concert during the American Idiot tour, they did the same thing and let the girl who came on stage keep the guitar well.
80percentlegs
They bring fans on stage all the time. It's fucking awesome.
winburn
I saw them do that in CR iowa
DragonDew
When I saw them, they brought up the drunkest person they could find, told him he sucked at singing, and got someone else lol.
theTAUSonMangoSt
He used to choose people to come up and play Jesus of Suburbia, I believe (a fairly simple song). Happened in Chicago for the 21CB tour.
AMoonWalkingBear
yeah happened in San Jose as well, same song same tour
vidiv
Happened when they played the Roskilde Festival as well, some years back. Might've been the American Idiot tour, idk.
STGxDante
They didn't do that at their stop in Orlando T.T
PaleBundy
I saw the same tour, they had three people come up and take over playing for a minute.
MrRectangle
i saw them years ago when they toured with Blink 182. did the same thing.
MrRectangle
brought up a bassist, guitarist and a drummer and let them all keep the instruments. drummer got to keep the stick. :/
WhateverWhateverIDoWhatIWant
I came here to say this. They also didn't sell tickets to the pit but opened it up to whoever could get down there fastest. Pretty cool.
ldldooley
They did this at Leeds Festival in the UK too! They're such a great band for doing things like this :)
BiggestofBears
Also saw them on the American Idiot tour. The fan to come up played the drums. Did not keep the kit. It was a sad day.
SunshineRainbowsUnicorns
Can confirm that they do this regularly. Such an awesome way to connect with the fans!
Hellstorm99
So that album in particular made me dislike Greenday for some time, but it is stuff like this that is bringing me back.
iConfirmAnythingAndEverything
I saw them twice on that tour, did it both times. The time in st paul the person smashed the guitar on stage, and tackled by security.
30Blok
Same thing when they did Lolla in Chicago :) very cool.
BruceMightBeBatman
I seen them many times and they bring people in to the show. They allowed one guy to play their 10 minuet song from start to end
fght
They have been doing it since the pop disaster tour. Best part of the night besides saves the day.
Tickytacky
Yep, also pop disaster tour.. I wanna say in 2002 but damn it's been so long I can't remember for sure. I was insanely jealous of the kid
itsabelt
I've seen them 4 times now & they've done this at every show. Say what you will about them but theyre awesome live and they love their fans
n3cr0fag0
Shit now I have to get them across the pond all the way to Lisbon, Portugal! Never attended a green day gig yet... :( but that's classy.
idislikecomingupwithuniqueusernames
Someone is apparently jealous of your love of Green Day :) +1 to get you positive
r2linad2
Maynard from Tool choked out a guy on stage...so there's that.
HotdogNotHotdog
True story. Seen me twice, and they did the same. San Diego and Salt Lake City.
ParappaTheVelociraptor
You mention my hometown and then where I currently live. Are you me?
Iworktosavethetatas
Well do you have 2 accounts and commented on your own comment?
HotdogNotHotdog
I am your alternate personality.
zflazeda
How do they know if the fan can even play the instrument or not
llydaw
Hate to tell you this but these stunts are often rigged
OdelallyOdelally
The American Idiot tour was my favorite concert I've been too. They're great guys.
MisterWidnes
They've been doing this for years, I saw them in 2004 and they pulled three people up to play drums, bass, and guitar.
MisterWidnes
The drummer wasn't very good though and had to be forcibly removed by Tré Cool.
QueenSmiles
I was the september 8th philly concert- he let her keep that guitar there, too!
StephanoB
Saw them do it at the Bullet In A Bible show in the U.K. The kid nailed it. They've been doing it since Warning. Frikkin' love this band
DenverPostironic
Saw them 18 years ago (fuck I'm old.) they did the same thing. Then Billy Joe stripped down to a thong and they burned their instruments.
ArmathyAndTheUnfinishedBusiness2
Haha I think they did that at almost every stop. I saw them in Portland around the same time and they did the same
flythedirector
They pick the girl next to me on the italian date! On that date they also pick other 3 and let them play toghether! they're awesome!
bizon1829
For all the crap they get for "selling out" when they got big, they seem like some pretty genuine dudes.
tenderape
I think that's their thing. Experienced the same thing at a concert 11 years ago. They invited 3 people to the stage.
Dataskvid
I saw that on youtube some days ago! The guy playing the bass uploaded the video. https://youtu.be/gz1y2LWLSjs
CoolHandRK
They did this at Warped Tour in 1998 as well. Its been their thing. Easy too since all of their songs are the same 3 keys/power chords.
emiazis
Lol
iamjacksbadusername
They did this in Columbus a while ago. Asked the kd if he had ever had sex. Told him "well you're definitely getting laid tonight... 1/2
iamjacksbadusername
... keep the guitar." 2/2
OktoberSunset
... and then they raped him backstage. 2/2
midd1eearth
Love it.

TheNinjaPervert
Fucking lmao man
TheOlsenTwins
Fucksakes man. +1 you animal.
PuttingTheSensualBackInNonconsensual
I saw them in '98 and somebody threw a water bottle at them and it hit Mike in the head and they got mad and left after 2 songs.
PuttingTheSensualBackInNonconsensual
Actually it was '97.
noveltyanomaly
UCSD show?
PuttingTheSensualBackInNonconsensual
No it was in Arizona at a place called Mesa Amphitheater.
scree06
Did it in Australia too. It was a guy this time.
playswithf1re
distinctly remember it being a girl at the gig I went to! ;)
scree06
They did a show everynight, we probably all saw different people
playswithf1re
sounds about right. was it soundwave or big day out? they all blend together for me... ;)
scree06
It was American idiot tour in Melbourne, for me.
FriscoeHotsauce
Avenged sevenfold did something similar when I went to their show back in 2011
OutlawGerman
WHAT?! dude that's fucking cool right there man.

It's all set up and part of the show...

Username sorta checks out I think...?
thatguymurphy
No shit its part of the show. It's on the stage, isn't it?
IUsedToHaveUsernameOnce
That's how magicians do it, it might be staged. I like to believe it's not because that's more awesome version.
MechAnon
The point is, everyone is like "wow how awesome, what a cool and spontaneous guy who loves his fans" but the whole thing is a fake gimmick.
thatguymurphy
And just because it's staged and he does it at every show, doesn't mean he that doesn't do it because he loves his fans
thatguymurphy
Maybe a gimmick, but not fake. Those people aren't planted beforehand, they're real fans. Stop being a cunt.
BeckyLookAtHerButt
I'm sure that was a once in a lifetime blast for the guy. :)
maggiepuff
Real awesome thing but...whould hate to be his friend, he would never shut up about it.
Eonymia
Yeah, Armstrong will never get this close to actual talent again.
Eonymia
P.s. Don't kill me. It's a joke.
Highlander8795
You might just say he had the time of his life.
valerium
I'm cutting onions watching him.Idk, everytime I see an athlete winning a medal or anybody else achieve something big (even in movies),I cry
iJug27
Me too, buddy. You're not alone.
BoogaAndTheB52
I actually knew a fan at school who managed to get up on stage on two separate occasions. They must do this quite often.
mjjt
I'm pretty sure he's done that a thousand times in front of the mirror in his bedroom

well its a once in a lifetime chance with Green day then probably

Well fine then, a multiple times in a lifetime blast, mister picky
