What makes you assume this was filmed on a phone? It's a video. There's no irony here. It's stupid that people go to live shows these days and they can't just 'be there and enjoy it' they're at the show looking through there phone. Fuck Yah Billie Joe for calling out that bullshit nonsense! How lame is it to watch a live performance and everyone in the audience is holding up a phone. That shit shouldn't be normal. It's lame and retarded and it never used to be like that back in the day when we went to shows before they invented that stupid gadget before people lived with their faces burried in a screen.

he said it in Amsterdam several times but not at that same part. If u ask me, I believe it's not cheesy at all, it's become part of the Green Day experience, it's a message that they want to get out there "live in the moment instead of worrying about re-living it". Saying that it's cheesy that they do it at every concert is just like saying it's cheesy that they invite fans on stage at every concert.

Just like a photo it's a memory. If that's disrespectful then how do you suppose the respectful way to watch a punk rock concert? ahahah by jumping around, pushing people over while around 3 older generations of adults that would rather stand and listen being at an older age to be respectful? Face it, the best punk rock band in the world are dads. You can't enjoy a punk rock concert by dads to the point of actually remembering it.

I get where Billie is coming from but personally it makes me worried that I'll be called out when I see bands that do that because it's how I appreciate moments.

I doubt you would get death threats for posting a link in this comment section, in which he name drops you in a song. If you post a link, that would show that it was already on the internet publicly. It's not like you'd be leaking secret information. I don't know if you've just worded it strangely, but I believe that you said earlier "There is alot of resentment there now for me and I cannot even to begin to try and listen to their new album", but you've just said now "I mean, I don't really enjoy their new album and I shouldn't be viewing new concert footage anyway". To me, you've went from saying, that you haven't even listened to their new album, to saying that you don't enjoy their new album. That just seems a little inconsistent to your story. Like, how can you not really like their new album, if you "cannot even begin to try" and listen to it?

I would want to have memories of course... I understand he's point completely and I agree definitely and it's a good beautiful message but still... I just mean that it doesn't have to be a bad thing that people use there phones... and I hope he understands that too... which I think he does, and yes I know he doesn't like phones and stuff and social media and stuff like that very much even if he uses it, he's made that very clear... but for having memories it should be I okay I think... if it's like your first time ever seeing them live y'know... and third, Billie talking directly to that person, even pointing at him/her and telling him/her that he loves him/her.... omg I'm so jealous.... 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ that's amazing... as beautiful... and so freaking cute...

I for one record sometimes at concerts too so when i get home i can just kinda watch it and just enjoy for a second time, or look at the video months later just to remember it!
