Well, let me tell ya ’bout this Green Day thing at Hersheypark. I heard it was some kinda big show, a real shindig.
Green Day at Hersheypark? What’s That All About?
So, this Green Day, they’re a band, I reckon. Like them fellas with the guitars and drums, makin’ all that noise. They were supposed to play at Hersheypark, that big place with all the rides and stuff. Folks were real excited, I tell ya. Bought tickets and everything.
But then, wouldn’t ya know it, somethin’ went wrong. That fella, Billie Joe somethin’-or-other, the one who sings, he had some trouble with his voice. Said he couldn’t sing right. Can ya believe it? All them folks waitin’, and he can’t even sing!
So, they had to go and change the date. Moved it to September, they did. The second of September, to be exact. Well, that caused a whole heap of trouble, let me tell ya. Folks had to change their plans, some couldn’t even go no more. A real mess, it was.
The Big Night Finally Comes
- The Music and Such: Now, I ain’t never been to one of these rock shows, but from what I heard, it was loud. Real loud. Them guitars wailin’, drums beatin’… And Billie Joe, well, he seemed to be doin’ alright with his voice this time. Folks were singin’ along, clappin’ their hands, havin’ a grand ol’ time.
- Something About a Fire?: And then there was somethin’ about a fire, can ya believe it? One of them…amplifier things, caught fire! Lord have mercy! Thankfully, nobody got hurt, but it sure added some excitement to the night.
- Singing About Lies?: Oh, and I heard Billie Joe sang a bit of a song called “One of My Lies.” Now, I don’t know nothin’ ’bout that song, but it sounds like he might be a bit of a rascal, that fella.
The Smashing Pumpkins and Rancid Were There Too
Now, this Green Day bunch, they weren’t the only ones playin’. There were these other bands too, The Smashing Pumpkins and Rancid. Heard they were pretty good too. Made for a whole night of music, I guess. Folks sure got their money’s worth, that’s for sure.
Tickets and Dates and All That
If you wanted to see ’em, you had to buy tickets. They were sellin’ ’em for the August 10th show, but then they had to change it to September 2nd, like I said. Hersheypark Stadium, that’s where it was at. Big place, like I told ya. Heard there were lots and lots of people there.
Green Day’s Big Tour
Turns out, this Hersheypark show was part of a big tour these fellas were doin’. Goin’ all over the world, they were. Stadiums, they said. Big places filled with folks. Guess they’re pretty popular, this Green Day. Must be makin’ a pretty penny, I reckon.
Finding Out More About the Show
Now, if you wanna know more, you can go look it up online. They got all sorts of stuff on there. Pictures, setlists they call ’em… Folks even put up videos, so you can see what it was like. I don’t know nothin’ about that internet stuff, but my grandkids do. They can find anything on there.
So that’s the story, as best as I can tell ya. Green Day, Hersheypark, a fire, some singin’, and a whole lotta folks. Sounds like it was somethin’ else, that’s for sure.
