Green Day paid tribute to the late Joe Strummer during their show Wednesday night in London on what would have been The Clash frontman’s 61st birthday.
At the O2 Academy Brixton, Billie Joe Armstrong wished Strummer a happy birthday before Green Day tore into “Letterbomb” from the “American Idiot” album.
The Brixton show featured a full run-through of the band’s 1994 smash, “Dookie”, ahead of performances this weekend at the Reading and Leeds Festivals.
Green Day are on the road in support of their album trilogy, ¡Uno!, ¡Dos! and ¡Tré!.
