American Idiot on Broadway

[Libk]

OK. So on April 22nd, I went to New York City for my first time. I saw Battery park, Ground Zero, and went to Nintendo World which is an amazing place to be. After walking around time square a bit, my aunt starts taking me off to Broadway. She points to a sign.


"Do you know what that is?" she asks and points. I look up and I'm like "No way. Wait...Are we going to see it?" I was shocked. Then I see another sign that shows Billy Joe Armstrong and it says that he will be there for the final weeks. The last weekend of the show was the weekend I was seeing it. Well that just made it even better. So my first broadway show is American Idiot, with Billy Joe as Saint Jimmy, and It is pretty much just 90 staright minutes of Greenday with a story acted out. It was an Amazing show.

Has anyone else seen it?

Amazing show?

I've heard the songs on pandora, and saw the synopsis and it sounds like a terrible show. I have no idea how to describe it. It's not really selling out as much as Billy Joe no longer really cares. I don't know ... I guess as a Green Day fan, but not a fan of their modern stuff I just think it's all around bad.

I haven't seen it, but I have the whole album on my iTunes account. They're cover of 21 Guns was pure art.

No But there song was created in 2004 (American Idiot) Why are they still using the same songs from earlier?

It's like Mamma Mia with ABBA. They use songs from Green Day and made a play out of them.
