I must have been excited, because looking back at the day, it seems that the support bands started at about 3pm and lasted forever -seemed like there was a lot of waiting for the headline act.”īoth night’s sets were dominated by songs from American Idiot, with seven tracks from the album performed on the first night, and the song Homecoming added on the second night. “I was with my family, and we sat quite far back up the banking, so relied mainly on the screens to see the stage clearly. It was also extremely busy – it seemed like everyone had come to this gig. It was my first proper gig so I didn’t really know what to expect, but the size of the setup was amazing. He said, “When I first saw the set, I remember feeling overwhelmed by the sheer size of the set up. He spoke of his memories of the concert, from being amazed by the size of the venue and production, to being blown away by the show at large. The venue would later be replicated in the Green Day Rock Band video game, which was released in 2010.īen Goldie from Aylesbury was 12 years old when he went to see the show, which was his first ever gig. The shows were filmed for a DVD release, with the consequent live album Bullet in a Bible released in November of the same year. Jimmy Eat World, Taking Back Sunday and Hard-Fi appeared as support acts over the two days. The second concert took place the night afterwards.

The band visited Milton Keynes for two nights on the American Idiot Tour in 2005, with the first night taking place on Saturday June 18th in front of a crowd of over 60,000 people. AMERICAN rock band Green Day wowed Milton Keynes on this day ten years ago with the first of their two night stand at MK Bowl.
