Chronox5 Lol come on, the musicianship is rudimentary at best, and the drummer drops one of his drum sticks in the first 30 seconds of playing. To be fair he does keep playing though while he picks it up, which is the most important thing you can do in any performance.
Hitler got abused by his father many times, He had to be homeless selling art after not being accepted to art school, then he was a leader of the Nazi party. So his dad is the one who should be killed.
@@benlee7864 murdering him would leave us behind in technology because the cold war would not have started and there would be no incentive to compete to further our advancements in science so i think that he was a necessary evil
+Gamerjman19 i noticed the kid messing with the ND filters so yea it was a pretty advance camera for the time. The auto focus was pretty good aswell. The school or the kid had some money for sure.
27:30 BJ asks for a drink and a random member of the audience lets him take 2 swigs what appears to be a half empty Pepsi...... This is why I will always love Green Day.... Very symbolic of who they are and how far they have come....
HAHAHAHA I think I saw myself walking to my locker in the background, the freshman lockers were outside towards the left of the band in the corner. hahaha A free Green Day Concert and we did not even pay attention. Oops. No one there that day thought that a group from Pinole would ever make it big. Cool video, brings back memories from PVHS & I recognized a lot of people in this video. :-)
MISSINGin BAJA That's awesome haha couldn't imagine myself looking back at a video like this and seeing myself sitting there watching them in the background as a teen lol, would trip me out
It is weird watching this esp since right where they played is where I used to eat lunch. This video brings back soooo many memories from Pinole Valley High. I miss my high school days. I was a freshman when they were seniors. Like I said before we had no idea Green Day was gonna be huge, other bands played at the school as well through the years, only this one made it big.
It's very cool to see bands like this when they were just beginning. I'm sure they still love playing but there is nothing like being in high school and jamming with your buds. The simplest gig can feel so epic when 90% of the time your jamming in a basement for love of music. These guys became huge, but I bet they feel the same when looking back on these days. I'd give one of my nuts to be 16, drinking cheap booze and thrashing with my buds on pawn shop guitars. Those were the days.
izzyzle It was EXTREMELY awesome in the early 90’s until around 1998. There still are many positive aspects of SoCal...just not as many as there once were.
At least two cameras running, and this was a time a camera was not easy available. I don't know in California but in southern Spain this was not easy to be seen
That's how I've always played drums. It was natural. I'm right footed, but left handed. It has its advantages and disadvantages. I can play cross handed, but poorly.
Not according to an interview Billie Jo did with Larry Livermore of Lookout Records back in the early 2000's where he said John was mediocre at best and that he had to walk him through some of the parts.
+Noble the Heathen He isn't better than Tre, John was a mediocre drummer, Tre keeps better time and uses more fills to draw you in, though this is all opinion.
zombieman1131 I just read an article about the recording of Dookie, and apparently Tre wrote way more fills, breaks, and drum solos than what was in the final album. They were cut because Warner Brothers wanted the music to be "radio friendly" at the time and have a beat with no breaks or anything special, like a pop song. If he hadn't been held back, the drumming could have been so much more insane, haha
Incredible! Nowdays they can fill a stadium of 60,000 people. 25 years ago, they're playing to about 100 people, most of whom aren't even interested! Can barely even hear the vocals at all, but class performance! It's videos like this that make RUclips so great.
Marc Davis This was during lunch period, and there were two periods, so about half of the students would be wandering about (800). They are just milling around the entire school- or going off campus to smoke probably...
Anyone who actually listened to their early music would know they were gonna do something really big, it is phenomenal,poetic, tight and full of passion....their 1st album is easily one of their best, its so melodic its like punk rock version of beatles
This is pure rock and roll!! No stupid auto tuners, and no stupid mixing and, no dumb non instrumental sound effects just a drummer, a bassist and a guitar player and singer.
Drummer is damn good. Very fast and precise. Hard stuff to play. Interesting to see a left hander playing a right hand set..... like Ringo. He’s good. Very quick stuff.
I love Tre Cool more than life itself - I wouldn't replace him with anyone. I'd never change the way he joined the band. But most people underrate the influence John Kiffmeyer had on the band. He was there at the beginning, arranging gigs in very different places, he was there when technology fucked up, he was there to fix it (like in this video when they played Knowledge and something got screwed up). He was the one who gave them the ultimate perfect start. I don't think their careers would've gone that way if Tre was in the band from the very beginning. Of course that Tre is about a billion times better than John but that doesn't mean John was just a useless third band member. And not to mention - and this is more like a bonus - he wrote one of the best songs from 39/Smooth - I was there. Fantastic song.
That maybe true but they would also never made it big had he stayed, as he wasn't really good enough. Having a good drummer like the in your band is essential to get to the heights they got too. Without his groove and feel in my opinion greenday are a completely different band. They still wrote good punk songs be he took them to the next level. John still did a lot for getting the band going but he had to be replaced at some point if the band wanted to make it.
Never was a big fan of Green Day, but I appreciate their mark in rock music. I also enjoy this video very much. It seems like a movie, with the awkward 90's teens and pop-punk in the background. It's great. Is it just me, or did 90's teens look older than teens nowadays? It's weird.
CrassPunk99 People are living longer. The stages of life seem to be extending. In the early 1900's a 21 year old male was a man. Today a 21 year old is a child.
This sky looks much more brighter than now. It must have been awesome, no smartphones in high school, just people talking with each other and enjoing good music.
Not to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but the sun appeared to be more yellow back in those days. As time goes on it seems to get whiter. I distinctly remember the world just looking different those days.
That's amazing how they probably didn't even know they had a big bright future ahead of them being rock n roll legends that's just inspiration for me in life and the high schoolers are so lucky they can actually say hey I went to school with green day just like my mom and my dad went to school with hootie and the blow fish
Wow a free concert I wonder if they would ever go back to this place and play for free that would be cool..greenday you remind me of good times with basket case and when I come around thats all we had in my border town in Arizona 32 channels and when MTV played music videos ..cool to see the 90s

Chloe N. I was born one year after this was recorded. May 10, 1991. hehe. It was a good time, at least for me. I remember things as far back as 1994 or even 1993. It was a simpler time, and more prosperous. Don't know how old you are but you look pretty young. I'm 24 now. It's cool that this was played like 365 days before I came into this world. A year before.
Chloe N. My mom taught 1st grade. And I remember interacting with kids in my mom's class. I was treated as a celebrity or someone cool, being a toddler or kid. Back from 1994-1996 especially. This video gives back a sense of nostalgia. The 90s were so great. Those old 1960s schools were everywhere. They smelled really terrible though. lol They tore that school down (that moms worked at) and rebuilt a new one in place of it. Those clothes and that bad hair is very spot on. Kids back then looked more nerdy or mature.
Chloe N. Life started to suck after 1999 in my opinion. Time goes by really fast though when you grow up. I remember being 15 in 2006 and it feels like last week. The people in school during Green Day's era seemed more nicer. I grew up with some really mean kids. Lost a few friends in car accidents. Was good-looking but not wealthy or popular. High School was like Hell for me. Billie Joe looks so puny he would have gotten beat up if he grew up in my time, even if he was playing these songs. I'm 5'7, good-looking and skinny as well. Not as successful as him though.
I'm fascinated by videos like this. Bands or singers that eventually rose to me performing in humble environments for completely uninterested audiences. Sometimes even playing songs they would later be famous for. Rage Against The Machine's first show is on RUclips and is similar to this. Bunch of guys in jeans on a flatbed. Nobody really watching, people just walking past during some event. There's also a video of Lady Gaga singing and playing the piano at some college bar with nobody paying attention. I'm interested in seeing more if anyone knows of other videos.
I swear, just about every high school in California looked like that back then. Reminds me of the bands we'd have playing during lunch break at the quad. Pretty much the same type of crowd too. The bands usually sucked, but some were alright. I'll bet no one watching this back then thought for even a second that Green Day hit it as big as they did. =D Thanks for uploading this.
sfgiantstorture I was born in 1991 and I agree. Actually May 10, a year after this was recorded (May 10, 1991). But my mom was a school teacher in Louisiana and I remember the kids looked very similar to those seen in this video when I was a toddler. (mom would bring me to school sometimes) I was about 2-5 years old. So that was probably like 1993-1996. Those schools smelled bad and were built in the 1960s most the time lol. It's not just California.
Green Day really brought pop punk into the mainstream at a time when grunge and all that was like ruling the scene they went further with a kind of quick to the point kind of punk song that was melodic. They were like 18 years old here, they have so much talent, Green Day is just one of those bands that I’ll always admire. I grew up with them
I'll never get Why generations look younger as the time passes by. High school kids today look like 12 years old. Mine gen looked older than them, and the previous high school kids looked older than us.
He would probably have still been their drummer but John went off to study else where and told them that they should try jamming with Tre and it worked out. Either way both are incredible drummers
As a drummer I can attest that if you are nervous and haven't warmed up yet your hands can feel like jello, that's probably why he dropped two sticks back to back.

When I was a kid green day was the band I really gravitated to. Listening to Green Day in the 90s while living in the Texas desert made me think that there were was an oasis out there filled with kids like me, beyond country and tejano.
Here in mn my dude John Bailey had a vhs boot of this he got from his sister who was going to school in SoCal. I think it was 91. It was love at first note for me.

Not to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but the sun appeared to be more yellow back in those days. As time goes on it seems to get whiter. I distinctly remember the world just looking different those days.
Mike Dirnt has always looked like such a dad
I met him once in Buffalo, NY (2000) Nicest famous dude ever.
That's amazing how they probably didn't even know they had a big bright future ahead of them being rock n roll legends that's just inspiration for me in life and the high schoolers are so lucky they can actually say hey I went to school with green day just like my mom and my dad went to school with hootie and the blow fish
I am wondering if someone from crowd is here and can notice himself.
"We have one record for sale! 5 bucks!"
Damn straight.
I laughed at that too lol
Dang i bet those records they sold are very rare and have very proud owners.

+fuzzychewbacca 😂😂
Wow a free concert I wonder if they would ever go back to this place and play for free that would be cool..greenday you remind me of good times with basket case and when I come around thats all we had in my border town in Arizona 32 channels and when MTV played music videos ..cool to see the 90s
Is this Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure?

Theres something strange afoot at the circle k
I love how the crowd in this video doesn't seem to care about them...if only they knew these guys would become Hall of Famers
That's pretty amazing! You can totally see the talent and potential that they had then, especially Billie Joe.
25:13 is it Marshall and Lily from HIMYM when they were at college? :D
Fucking hillllllarious. Great catch. 🤣
Holy fuck
Kids, remember when Uncle Marshall and Aunt Lily went to see Green Day at their highschool?
Im actually crying to see real footage of them in high school. 😭😭 crying with joy
Believe in yourself. Believe in every chord and strum. It'll translate
These kids are pretty good but it's obvious they'll never amount to anything.
That's funny.... oh i'm sorry I mean TF fuck this generation....
Um sarcasm or?
+Max Almaraz What do you think?
Yeah, these kids are decent at best lmao
ya know..
"Hold it fellas. I'm afraid you're just too darn loud."
I want this to be a live album.
It is live.
This is archival history, Imagine walking around hearing an entirely new genre of rock that's only a year old💀
I bet everyone wishes they'd paid attention to them now.
If I could go back in time I would be their friends and then I'd be there through their rise to fame
Wouldn't any Green day fan
it’s Laura man I would join the band 😂
love how billie and mike are in perfect sync during the fisrt part of dry ice
This performance is so old Freddie Mercury was still alive when it happened
Hey oh 😂
Whoever filmed this is a legend

Koala Plum thanks for the song names 👍☺️
the 90's seemed like such a great time to be alive
Chloe N. I was born one year after this was recorded. May 10, 1991. hehe. It was a good time, at least for me. I remember things as far back as 1994 or even 1993. It was a simpler time, and more prosperous. Don't know how old you are but you look pretty young. I'm 24 now. It's cool that this was played like 365 days before I came into this world. A year before.
Chloe N. My mom taught 1st grade. And I remember interacting with kids in my mom's class. I was treated as a celebrity or someone cool, being a toddler or kid. Back from 1994-1996 especially.
This video gives back a sense of nostalgia. The 90s were so great. Those old 1960s schools were everywhere. They smelled really terrible though. lol They tore that school down (that moms worked at) and rebuilt a new one in place of it.
Those clothes and that bad hair is very spot on. Kids back then looked more nerdy or mature.
Chloe N. Life started to suck after 1999 in my opinion. Time goes by really fast though when you grow up. I remember being 15 in 2006 and it feels like last week.
The people in school during Green Day's era seemed more nicer. I grew up with some really mean kids. Lost a few friends in car accidents. Was good-looking but not wealthy or popular. High School was like Hell for me. Billie Joe looks so puny he would have gotten beat up if he grew up in my time, even if he was playing these songs. I'm 5'7, good-looking and skinny as well. Not as successful as him though.
not in Russia 💀
It was. I miss it a lot.
how can this have one single dislike? It's sincere... It's real
Gives me goosebumps man... they sound so freeking good, imagine just walking to class and these dudes are just rocking out outside the chemistry labs
I'm fascinated by videos like this. Bands or singers that eventually rose to me performing in humble environments for completely uninterested audiences. Sometimes even playing songs they would later be famous for. Rage Against The Machine's first show is on RUclips and is similar to this. Bunch of guys in jeans on a flatbed. Nobody really watching, people just walking past during some event.
There's also a video of Lady Gaga singing and playing the piano at some college bar with nobody paying attention.
I'm interested in seeing more if anyone knows of other videos.
I grew up in rodeo I know billys mom this is amazing to see
I swear, just about every high school in California looked like that back then. Reminds me of the bands we'd have playing during lunch break at the quad. Pretty much the same type of crowd too. The bands usually sucked, but some were alright. I'll bet no one watching this back then thought for even a second that Green Day hit it as big as they did. =D Thanks for uploading this.
Dude when did you go to school that's awesome
Same. I'm still in High school, but it reminds me a lot of mine
sfgiantstorture I was born in 1991 and I agree. Actually May 10, a year after this was recorded (May 10, 1991). But my mom was a school teacher in Louisiana and I remember the kids looked very similar to those seen in this video when I was a toddler. (mom would bring me to school sometimes) I was about 2-5 years old. So that was probably like 1993-1996.
Those schools smelled bad and were built in the 1960s most the time lol. It's not just California.
I wish I'd gone to school in Cali. Schools in Florida were NOT like this.
This is unreal. I've had this audio tape since '95(bootleg), I never imagined no one was paying attention to the band.
Kevin G I was at this concert
Green Day really brought pop punk into the mainstream at a time when grunge and all that was like ruling the scene they went further with a kind of quick to the point kind of punk song that was melodic. They were like 18 years old here, they have so much talent, Green Day is just one of those bands that I’ll always admire. I grew up with them
I'll never get Why generations look younger as the time passes by. High school kids today look like 12 years old. Mine gen looked older than them, and the previous high school kids looked older than us.
From eating real food.
Plastic is an estrogenmimic. Ingesting plastic molecules making males more feminine.
cheesy 90s camera zooming: check
I love how now there like oh wow green days performing at my school whatever 4 years HOLY CRAP GREEN DAY PLAYED AT MY SCHOOL
Camera man needs to lay off the blow for a bit.
I wish I could go back and time and attend this live. They'd be surprised that I know all the lyrics to their songs
Awesome young performers! Billy nailed music composition since way back then...
Their drummer had a problem in the beginning.
+John Fidalgo You're right. He kept dropping the sticks. That drummer sucked. Trè Cool is a way better drummer for Green Day.
+John Fidalgo and then they got a new drummer
He would probably have still been their drummer but John went off to study else where and told them that they should try jamming with Tre and it worked out. Either way both are incredible drummers
As a drummer I can attest that if you are nervous and haven't warmed up yet your hands can feel like jello, that's probably why he dropped two sticks back to back.
Herbivore 710 Yep! Nerves were probably locking his hands up for the first one. Been there too.
Lol "Does anyone have a bass drum pedal?"
Would be funny if a kid takes that to school
Yup
the best band since 1989
the best inspiration for me :')
El Alambritox 1986*
41:23 that hat hair im laughing so hard his hair looks like a cabbage

It's funny to think that most of those kids there are parents now with teenagers 24 years later! LOL
haha
;)
And Billie Joe has kids, I think 2 sons who also play music (one a guitarist the other a drummer)
wow I wasn't born yet :-)
I love Green Day though
When I was a kid green day was the band I really gravitated to. Listening to Green Day in the 90s while living in the Texas desert made me think that there were was an oasis out there filled with kids like me, beyond country and tejano.
Here in mn my dude John Bailey had a vhs boot of this he got from his sister who was going to school in SoCal. I think it was 91. It was love at first note for me.
90's sure was hell of a time to be teenager.
...and 25 years later they get inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. That's really cool.
