(8) Green Day :: Hitchin' A Ride

Green Day :: Hitchin' A Ride
or THIS live link if the above is broken (as the above may be copyright infringement).

So this post means 1 week has passed... 7 songs.

Last night i thought i knew what song i was gonna use for today, but then at work i got pounded with some great 90's jams that really drudged up some nostalgia.

Sometime between 2000-2002 (i don't remember) i saw Green Day and the Living End in concert and they put on a kick ass show.

Only show I've ever been to where the band (Green Day) stopped mid way through a song when they saw someone fall over in the pit and got the guys around to help the person up. It was a beautiful sort of punk rock camaraderie (or something like that).

This song is one of my favorites, and in my honest opinion really exemplifies the Green Day style, before they got overtly political (ie. Anti-Bush) in their music.

Which I of course prefer, because come on, who wants to hear about politics everywhere... including in your 'me time' music?
