  • The Coverups (Green Day) - Ziggy Stardust (David Bowie cover) - Albany, Live, 1-15-18, 1st row, Ivy Room. Secret Show! Mike Dirnt: We do play requests, but it has to be a song we've already played :P
    Other Tidbits:
    Billie Joe: I’ve done some time down here in Albany… :P
    The Ivy Room is a bar and music venue which has a capacity of only 196 people. There were about 100 friends and family in attendance and essentially a private show, but was also open to fans who were able to figure out the clues the band left on their social media pages. Admission was only $10, and with it, we also got a raffle ticket. Many joke prizes were raffled off, including such items as a sex doll, personal humidifier, drink coupons and a penis enlarging pump, lol. The grand prize was a very nice Les Paul guitar.
    The Coverups, Billie Joe, Mike Dirnt, Jason White, Bill Schneider, Lee Bothwick and Chris Dugan, all hung out after the show, talking with the fans and taking pictures.
    For 'American Girl', Jason Beebout of Samiam, a punk band from Berkeley, California, sang the lead vocals while fans in the 1st row held up the lyrics sheet for him.
    Billie Joe (before ‘I Fought the Law’): The (sex doll) looks just like him! lol
    Jason White: I think this bar band thing could work out for us... :P
    Many of the fans recognized each other from previous Green Day concerts. Some even recognized each other from the concert at 924 Gilman the previous night! However, because the Ivy Room could only allow in fans 21 years old and over, some fans could not make it.
    Billie Joe (after 'Surrender'): Yes... We are all right... It's going to be all right... with all the fu*ked up sh*t going on right now... it's going to be all right. It's like when you're having a night terror, but it's happening 24 hours a day... :P

    I still remember thay Fuse interview Green Day did where Billie Joe said The Rise and Fall of ZIggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars was a monumental album for him and here he is singing a song from that album.

    Billie had a tear in his eye when he sang this. Did anyone that went to the show on Monday notice that he got emotional like that again?. There’s only one short video that I’ve seen of the song so far.
