After all the events of the last few days, it's a bit of a surprise that there wasn't another Green Day show last night! Well, maybe i'm getting a bit carried away, but it's exciting knowing that almost anything is possible at the moment. Major kudos to the band for the spontaneity of it all.

There's been so much going on, it's been a tricky time trying to keep up with all the updates from not only the show in San Francisco, but also the Halloween bonanza in NYC just last week. It gives us a chance to catch up on a few things from the 2 most recent shows...

First of all, here's a great video that has surfaced of "The Monster Mash" from the beginning of the Halloween show, featuring Billie Joe along with members of the America Idiot Musical on Broadway cast:



On to the San Francisco show on Tuesday night and here's a video of Billie Joe talking about the "99%" in response to some of the protests that have been taking place in Oakland this week.

A few more videos from the San Francisco show:

Paper Lanterns, Hybrid Moments (Misfits cover), Know Your Enemy & Hitchin' a Ride.

[quote]Breaking in a sweat
Like a bomb threat
Use your silhouette, faded out

Nothing left to lose
Detonate the fuse
Another break and you fall out

Getting off a binge
Get a second wind
Another promise, just make a change

Got a broken wing
Hear the angels sing
With a signal that's out of range

make a change, make a change

Carpe diem, a battle cry
are/aren't we all too young to die
Ask for reason, and no reply
are/aren't we all too young to die

Making a living
Making a killing
What's worth forgiving
A life/alive

And the other night
Barely scraping by
Dominated by passer-by's

Feeling out of luck
When the traffic's stuck
And you're feeling so left behind

Getting off a binge
Get a second wind
Another promise, just make a change

Got a broken wing
Hear the angels sing
With a signal that's out of range

any change any change

Carpe diem, a battle cry
aren't we all too young to die
Ask for reason, and no reply
aren't we all too young to die

Making a living
Making a killing
What's worth forgiving
A life/alive

Making a living
Making a killing
What's worth forgiving
A life/alive

Carpe diem, a battle cry
are/aren't we all too young to die
Ask for reason, and no reply
Aren't we all too young to die

Carpe diem, a battle cry
are/aren't we all too young to die
Ask for reason, and no reply
Are/aren't we all too young to die [/quote]
Thanks to Mozzabillie for the Carpe Diem video and **nobodylikesyou** and other members on the forum for putting the lyrics together.
