There's no better feeling than Green Day nostalgia 🤟🏻
True I guess hahaha
So true👍😍
Maybe Ramones but stop counting
Yeah after hearing their new album I believe they have jumped the shark!!
even if you weren't alive at the time lol
this album is criminally underrated
I was so young, like maybe eleven when they came out. Huge green day fan since I was a little kid, my uncle gave me this album for one of my birthdays when it had also come out. Right now, my uncle is in surgery, that very same uncle. Be rad if everyone could send him their good vibes. 💚
UPDATE: Thank you to every single one of you for wishing him well. It got me emotional, knowing that my favorite band's fan base is so caring and amazing. We are a family, brought together by "God's favorite band."
My uncle is doing okay and recovering. He has had a few heart surgeries this past summer. My family is really hoping he pulls through, finally. It's been a rough fight for him. Again, Thank you, everyone, for the support and care you've shown for him. 💚🙏
Sending good vibes your uncle's way ,and your way, and all the green day fans' way
Hope the surgery goes well
Bless him. Sending good vibes and may he recovers quick ❤
I hope for the best for your uncle !
I hope everything goes okay
My opinion: Greatest. Album. Ever.
Glad to see this album being celebrated on its 25th anniversary. Has been my favorite album (by any band) for nearly 25 years now!!
Ya it’s pretty good. It’s so underrated
@@allieb.1006 Very under-rated and overlooked. The guitar tones, the bass and the drums, the anger and snottiness in the vocals...... everything about it is perfect to me.
By no stretch, greatest but epic.
@@kinjaldas225 haha, hence the "my opinion" part ;)
Dude honestly makes me so happy to see someone else thinks this
i remember reading an article in kerrang magazine around April 1996 about how Green Day had brought someone along on the Insomniac tour, to document it all and release it as an official tour video. Nothing ever came of it. I think, because they had to cancel the last part of their european tour due to panic attacks and exhaustion.
At the time (APRIL 96) I was 15 and so excited to see this footage. Fast forward 24 and a half years to now. I'm 40 and even more excited to see this. I will always love this band. They were my first show I ever went to. London Brixton Academy 20th September 1995.
link to that show is in the replies to this comment. Amazing memories. They were like superheroes to me back then.
How was it? Did they seem tired or did they have a lot of energy and grit like when I've seen them?
@@psmyerdad czcams.com/video/1riNrSA9JQ0/video.html They were brilliant.
@@psmyerdad that day was my 13th birthday haha 38 now... Green Day nostalgia is the best !!! Saw them for the first time in 1998 at Buenos Aires, Argentina
@@bluestar8434 That's so cool. I tried to get to some of their 98 shows a bit early to experience this,but was never around at the right time.
That show is on CZcams. What an amazing show you got to go to

Thank you, wonderful person
Thank you!
I'm kinda new to Green Day and I needed this!
thanks mate!
🤘🤘👏👏👏
Ahh, Green Day's angriest album. Great footage
That’s what I love about it - it’s the angriest of them all.
This is my favorite of their albums. So nostalgic.
I love it. This whole album is so pessimistic and BLEAK. Panic Song particularly.
My favourite GD album by a long way
probability the best fucking album that they ever put out. i used to listen to the entire thing and it would flow so well together.
Dookie is the best ;)
Probably my favourite album of all time!
THANK YOU
Its definetly my favourite for sure!!!!!
I do think I prefer it to Dookie
me yelling "LOOKING FOR A CHEAP ESCAPE, ON THE BRINK OF-" and they cut the music
I feel this comment
So relatable
ME TOO
The best part of panic song
Argh
If they pulled it out of nowhere, imagine what other footage they have in store. It's amazing.
I agree! I’d like to see a documentary about the Nimrod tour and see what songs they performed then.
In my head, Green Day always plays as fast as they played during the Insomniac tour
The camcorder footage between songs is REALLY interesting cos it basically shows the Euro '96 tour breaking down. You can hear in the video they got to the venue in Germany and it was a total mess and not ready for them to set up. As far as I can work out that German show they were trying to salvage didn't go ahead, they went home and cancelled the rest of the dates, making this Prague show (March 26th) actually the last full gig they did for a long while.
I remember I was so sad when that tour got cancelled. I was psyched to a crazed level for the Brixton show, counting down the days. Cutting the tour short also messed things up for The Mr T Experience (Who were supporting. Do yourself a favour if you love this era of Green Day and give Mr T Experience a listen if you dont already know them).
Green Day didn't play again for a year and a half, the next show was a weird one-off date in Tokyo a couple of months before the Nimrod tour started (July 25th '97). They were kind of a different band by that point IMO. Some part of that energy was gone and never fully returned.
It's probably a good thing they cancelled the tour for their own sanity. If they took a year off, I can't imagine how long they would have had off if they'd actually finished all the dates and got properly insanely miserable and Jaded. I have a Guitar World interview from early '97 with BJ where he says it had gotten to the point where the plan was to not tour anymore, just record and do the occasional date. Be interesting to see what that would have been like somewhere in an alternate universe...
Agree with the different band thing - the energy of the Dookie/Insomniac shows and music was just something else, I suppose it was unsustainable
I think the change was beneficial honestly. I love Nimrod just as much as this one !
@@TheLarryburns84 Interesting! I can't get on with Nimrod. I liked it at the time but Warning alienated me so bad that it put me off Nimrod. I come back to it every few years trying to force myself to like it, but I struggle. I like worry rock, take back and few of the b sides like suffocate, you lied, rotting. But to me the whole thing reeks of BJ desperately trying to get taken more seriously as a songwriter, which I don't understand cos the best songs from Dookie and Insomniac are literally genius-level songwriting. Each to their own
@@danny355 With American idiot they started to take themselves a bit too seriously I think.
"Yeahhhh weiners, weiners!" - Tre Cool, 1996
One of my favorite green day albums! New fan, been listening to them for only two years. They're absolutely my top band of all time. Their energy live is so insane and they're just so tight! Reading people's comment of their memory about this tour makes me wish I can see them one day. They only ever come to my country once in '96. Anyways Happy 25th birthday Insomniac!
Welcome to our family
Imsomniac best album green day
I want an official documentary - I know they’ve put out some stuff. The early years and turn it around were great. But a real honest to God documentary about EVERYTHING!! Explore what they were thinking and doing in the studio for each album, for every tour. Special events like Woodstock and the numerous award shows. That’s what I’d love to see!!! Because this 20 minute video was fantastic!!!! And I WANT MORE!!!
This tour was my first ever rock concert. A memory I will cherish for the rest of my life. Thank you Green Day and never stop rocking! 🤘
Panic Song is my song from Insomniac ever since I listened to it. I've never actually had a panic attack, but I don't need to to want to jump out when I feel lost... the world is STILL a sick machine.
For some reason Billie refuses to play it live
They don’t play it live because of how hard the intro is for Mike and Tre. Apparently both of their hands started bleeding while recording the studio version
I’d be surprised if it really killed Trè that bad. He had crazy stamina in ‘94/95. Mike though, I’d believe it. That’s a long ass time to play that note so quickly
Yeah, I think I heard him say it was difficult to play... it's a shame :( I don't want them to be in pain, I just think they can pull it off though
@@neverafrown6308 It caused tre to fall against a doorway from dizziness and mike to rip off his calluses causing his fingers to bleed all over.
One of the reasons why they don’t play it live it’s Mike’s carpal tunnel
Here before it blows up
Hipster
The video we didn’t ask for but we all needed
Jaded in Chicago full version would be nicer.
I agree
For real.
grande
INSOMNIAC FOR LIFE
the album that never got the recognition it deserved
Hello, how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here.
The opening to Panic Song is EVERYTHINGGGG
The fact that they remembered that they once released an album like Insomniac made my day
The drum sound on that opening track is amazing.
I was there! Sport hall Prague. I still have a ticket:) I was 16years old. I remember it was so loud and fast. My ears were burning:) It was a great time of my life:)
that is so awesome.
I love Insomniac and all, but I want something like this for the Nimrod anniversary celebration.
Dude yesd
Nimrods my favorite album by them
Same
Yeah in a couple years that'll happen. Be patient.
OMG, Yes!
I still feel the same love for Stuck with me like when I've heard it for the very first time in 1995.
this album heals your soul. feels like going into the woods and screaming for an hour
thank you
So bittersweet to me. I had my ticket for the Montpellier, France show on April 10th 1996 when the end of the tour was cancelled, and never rescheduled. How I hope I could have seen Green Day in 96. Seeing footage like this makes me think of how great it would have been! Of course, I totally understand why the band cancelled and I'm fine with it.
I was told that, when Green Day played Nîmes (in the same area) some 17 years later, Billie Joe came to Montpellier and went shopping for some records at a local store that day. There's an autographed Green Day record in the window there. Billie Joe, if you're reading this, I hope I get to say hello to you in person one day :)
still listen to this album religiously everyday😾😾
Hello, how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here.
Just awesome. Can’t believe it’s been 25 years! I still remember it like yesterday!
It was just awesome to go on a Green Day landmark tour this year and see where the guys come from that influenced my whole life
That is awesome! What were some of the landmarks you visited?
@@johnhilton529 I´ve been to:
original locations of the Studios where they recorded „1000 hours“, „Slappy“,
„39/smooth“, „Kerplunk!“ (these places don't exist anymore)
original location of Fantasy Studios, they recorded „Dookie" there
location where „Warning“ Cover was shot
Rudy’s can’t fail Cafe (co-owned by Mike Dirnt)
Broken Guitars (co-owned by Billie Joe)
Rodeo, Hometown of Bille Joe
Pinole Valley High, High School of Billie Joe and Mike Dirnt
924 Gilman Street
And imitated a part of the Video of „When I come around“ at the Powel Street BART Station in San Francisco
And other places... Also, I know the address of the "Longview House".... ;-)
@@mikevaas Thats super cool…makes me wanna go check out these places too
Love this! They look like babies! 💚💚💚
I was in 6th grade and this was the first green day tour I ever saw.
Woww guys in 2020 we have seen the green day of 1996 very beloved memories
i thought panic song was being played live in the beginning and i got excited
Way too hard 😂
way too taxing on the hand/wrist i think
How the hell have I spent at least five years without listening to this marvel?
That way of elbow strumming still rocks!!!
My Favorite Album Of Green Day.
I LOVE THIS ALBUM
the best album eveer
This is there best album by far
Punkest sounding one too. Somehow people still treated it like Pinkerton.
So we’re just gonna ignore the guy having a seizure 19:00
Enzo Santilli likely
It's not ignored, there's clear footage of it in the video.
Saw them 1996 Melbourne, Australia for this tour . Great show !
This is so incredible. This Prague show has been sought after for years. Now they're releasing reissued old T-shirts, prints of the original artwork, and a limited pressing vinyl. I'm so excited.
this video was really beautiful, it made me too happy
My favorite album of all time. We needed this.
THIS RULES ! Thank you dudes.
They played with such a fierce drive, we need this in 2020
I really miss the old Green Day Sound. They were my heroes when I was a teen.
ditto
Same here
7:31
Tré: oh! **Time to dance**
Tré was hilarious
Volví a mis 15 años escuchando Insomniac
Gracias por esta obra de arte
Incredibly underrated album! This to me was the perfect follow up to Dookie, and songs like Armatage Shanks, Stuck With Me, Geek Stink Breath, 86, Brain Stew, and Walking Contradiction just vibe with me more than songs from Dookie

@@Pazuzu82 thank you
do you know what song is playing at 18:58?
1:28 - Billie Joe's shirt has the name Perry on it. This is the same name used for his character in the film Ordinary World.
He's secretly an Aerosmith fan who shreds, that's why he constantly plays snippets of hard rock live= Legend.
Joe Permenter I don’t get it
@@masondefoe654 Joe Perry plays underrated lead guitar too. Get it?
Joe Permenter oh ahahahahah yeah my bad.
One of the best albums in rock and roll history. 30 plus minutes of straight ahead in your face punk rock
I love this album.
This album was my first exposure to Green Day 20 years ago. I was standing in a shop and trying to choose between two albums on casette. One was some album by Rancid and the other was Green Day's Insomniac. I chose well. ;)
If it was «... and out come the wolves» you wouldn't had made a bad decision neither :p
Hope you eventually got " let's go " and " ..... and out come the wolves "
@@CcJjGg_ I haven't but there's still time to do it. :)
Rancid and Green Day it's a killer combo always
Don't forget the offspring
Holy shit nice!!!
still to this day one of my favorite albums ever. so much so that I still have the cd in perfect condition, Green Day has been the soundtrack to some of the best and worst days of my life :) no wrong occasion to jam to this baby
Hello, how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here.
Who the heck put a dislike on this glorious piece of heaven
KL Guitar someone who doesn’t appreciate quality music they have no taste
OMG! Didn't know I needed it, but this made my day.
The moment I refresh theres already been 26 likes
insomniac live DVD would be great 🥺
I was young and I used to play these songs, now I'm not young anymore but I still play them for my children ...
No sabia que lo necesitaba hasta hoy 👌 Gracias Green Day
Green Day announced they are releasing a 25th anniversary remastered deluxe edition of insomniac and it will also be out digitally in a few days as i type This 🤘😂
Coffee and old school Green Day? Great start to my morning. Finally a CZcams spiral that showed me some love. 💕
I really miss those times ❤️
This day is going great linkin park dropped their anniversary album and Ozzy posted bunch of live performances and then this. What more could you ask.
I was literally just saying this!

Thank you for all! Love you guys!!!
Hello, how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here.
Wow1994 memorie. I was a child back then but i feel it . Green day fan . ❤nimrod
Hidden gems!! This is very rare footage videos!! Come back to Indonesia 🇮🇩🇮🇩
I don't think I've EVER seen Insomniac era footage, which I would've killed for in high school considering this album perfectly captured my anguish and isolation through it... these are all such gems!
...tho not as many gems as the crystal meth they had to have hit before going on stage for this show 😂😂 jesus christ it's a miracle they look as good as they do now for what they put themselves through lmao. Like other comments said the break they took after the tour collapsed was probably the best thing for their health. Have and will always love you Green Day 💚🤟
lol i was thinking the same thing 🤣
The mixing here is incredible.
This is the green day we all need
The good old days 👍Staré dobré časy

Always love when these old clips/ videos come out. There's nothing like reliving the memory of growing up with Green Day in the 90's. This takes me right back in time. ..Thank you guys!
Glad this album is getting some love these days.
green day’s songs give me nostalgia of moments i didn’t experience
well sed
You guys cancelled the europe tour just before the show in Denmark, i was 14 y/o and so dissapointed and sad. How ever i did get to see you in 98' in copenhagen on the Nimrod tour. Insomiac is diffenately one of my number 3 favorite GD album :)
tanks so much. for Prague and Czech Republic is a big honor. Czech republic = Best Beer
Damn this is awesome. Loved these days. Great behind the scenes stuff aswell.
Pure GOLD! one of my favorite eras of the band, fast and loud, for me, after American Idiot, Insomniac is the best Green Day album, dark and sarcastic lyrics with amazing fast melodies.
What happened with that guy at the end? Epilepsy attack?
This album was nearly perfect
What do you mean nearly it’s there best one
WTF? Nearly? Everything Green Day is PERFECT! Can't get enough!!! 🥰
I think it's better than Dookie
I preffer Dookie
@@moliblacks5 But Isnomniac is great, this was my father's first album ever, my uncle gave it to him when he was young
I love the songs at a faster tempo it makes it feel more punk and energetic
One of my most favorite albums ever.
Ah yes. Tre cool becomes tre fool
Yes I play guitar and drum in my channel and Green Day song
Gottem
:)
Michael Brown yes
Que hermosoooo esto locooooo 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
Si tendrán material bien guardado... que empiecen a liberar que es una de las bandas que más vende. Es hora de retribuirle a los fans tanto amor
I ❤ this band... Savior of my teen days...
Insomniac and Nimrod are my favorite GD albums they still hold up to this day I hope there’s something like this similar in a few years for Nimrod!
Green Days best album that's not a rock opera! Right here boys and girls so fast pure punk this is my favorite green day album! So so so underrated if only they would play songs from this album. Brat ,Westbound Sign, Babs Uvula Who. Literally not one bad song on this album. Plus it's got some of my favorite Mike Dirnt bass lines 🔥
Every song is gold! Almost impossible to replicate
Such an underrated album
But its not underrated
Everyone loves it
Miguell Amaral I know that but I’m referring to songs like”86” and “panic song”
@@nimrod8613 I love "86" too
And so do my father hehehee
BasketCase 420 I disagree
Thank you Green Day, hope to see you someday in Costa Rica 🇨🇷🙏🏻
Man am so happy am alive watchin that rn
The best music of rock only with Green Day🤘❤️🎸
They fit 7 songs and clips inbetween in 20 min. 😂 They're playing so fast
ikr
Well that’s what meth and speed does to you
One of the best videos that have been released in this pandemic
Let's all relax and remember this
