Back in 1998, Billie Joe played an acoustic set of Green Day songs and various covers for KALX, a Berkeley radio station.

Over the course of about 20 minutes, Billie Joe played eight Green Day songs and covers of Pinhead Gunpowder and Sonny & Cher. Pretty cool to hear some of these songs acoustically, especially the ones that don't get played live often.



Setlist:
1. Reject
2. Christie Road
3. Chump
4. Jinx
5. No Pride
6. One For The Razorbacks
7. Stuart And The Ave.
8. Worry Rock
9. I Got You Babe (Cover)
10. Beastly Bit (Pinhead Gunpowder Cover)

Here's a full mp3 download of this show. The download features 4 other songs that weren't included in the above video. There's a couple other versions available for download, check out this topic on our forum to see the different versions.
