Green Day is promoting their new album, Saviors, which is out today. So they did a stopover on The Tonight Show to get the word out.
Jimmy Fallon thought they should do more than just perform in his studio, so he had them sing their songs in a NYC subway station.
And the commuters didn’t have a problem with that. In fact, they rocked out along with the band as they san Basket Case, Dilemma, Look Ma, No Brains, and American Idiot.
We already got a bitchin’ sneak peek of the latter song when someone posted it on TikTok. And the whole mini-concert was bombtastic!

Before Billie Joe Armstrong was singing Oh Love with Green Day, he recorded Look for Love by himself when he was in elementary school. How cute did the 5-year-old sound in 1979?
However, as cute as he sounded, he looked even cuter listening to himself singing back then on Howard Stern’s radio show today.
Jimmy Fallon invited Green Day to play a NYC subway station for a segment on The Tonight Show, and New Yawkers had no problem with it.
In fact, they belted out American Idiots with the band. Because in NYC, that is what we think of everyone who is not from there. Don’t be upset. It is just how we are!
So, for those few moments, we accepted the band as one of our own. And we love that they changed the lyrics from I’m not a part of a redneck agenda to MAGA agaenda. Cause we hate Trump, and we proudly say we don’t support his hateful, American-destroying movement.
So, that is why Ya Boi and the other commuters declared, “Sometimes the subway in NYC isn’t too bad.”
However, other days, we don’t want to talk about it. But today, we are talking about how fucking cool this Green Day performance was!
And am I the only one who found Fallon looking really hot here? Tell me, I am not alone.
Before Green Day was playing stadiums, they played Pinole Valley High School in Pinole, California. You can tell that the barely legal band was destined for stardom in 1990.

Green Day are my heroes! Yesterday, during New Year’s Rockin’ Eve on ABC, Green Day played American Idiot.
However, not the version they originally released in 1998. Instead, they changed the line I’m not a part of a redneck agenda to I’m not a part of a MAGA agenda!
And now the MAGAts are mad at them. I don’t know why they are pissed. I guess it is because the truth hurts. They are American idiots!
Green Day’s new album, Saviors, comes out on January 19th.
