Notes

Cédric Rizzo: "Elysée Montmartre 1998, my first and only stagedive and a small football game with the band before the show."
Philou: "Green Day arrived. We shook hands with Billie Joe who wasn't very talkative during this period, but we exchanged a few words. Then we spoke to Mike, who was more talkative. Then came Tré, reeking of weed. He had difficulty climbing up the stairs while carrying a football (very athletic). The security opened the doors and lets us in. Here comes GREEN DAY! Welcome To Paradise was like an explosion. Of course they played a lot of other songs but I forgot a large portion of the set. That was a poweful and loud show. Billie Joe chose me to get up on stage to play guitar for Knowledge. I tried to climb the barrier, but the fucking security guy shoved into a wall. Billie Joe winked at me. The shows ended with Time Of Your Life played by Billie on his Strat. And it was finished! Fucking awesome show!"
