Green Day side-project The Coverups announce 2025 London show
Surprise! Billie Joe Armstrong will be back in London next month for another special show with his side-project The Coverups.
Green Day have shared some truly incredible footage from their Argentina show, featuring a visibly moved Billie Joe Armstrong.
Green Day have already played some incredible shows this year, having finally brought their Hella Mega Tour with Fall Out Boy and Weezer to the UK and Europe after a couple of years of COVID delays. But, judging by official footage shared by the band, their gig in Argentina on Sunday night could be the best of 2022 so far.
Posting an amazing video of 50,000 fans at Buenos Aires’ Estadio Vélez Sarsfield going absolutely wild and all jumping in unison, it’s a genuinely goosebump-inducing clip – with frontman Billie Joe Armstrong up onstage calling it “the craziest show” and being visibly moved to tears, telling the audience, “You’re fucking making me cry.”
They then launch into a soaring Jesus Of Suburbia sing-along, with fans in the pit showing the biggest smiles on their faces. It’s real ‘wish you were there’ stuff.
