Notes:
  • The setlist is out of order
  • Austin American-Statesman: "It's the last night of October, and there are endless opportunities for Halloween fun and late-night intoxication in Austin. At Liberty Lunch, Green Day is playing."
  • Billie Joe Armstrong: "Yeah. I can’t remember the venue, but we were playing in Austin, Texas. It was a 2,000-seater. I was nervous. That’s when I decided to start drinking before shows. It started off with two beers. Then it went to many more after that. Liquid courage – it made me loosen up and not give a fuck."
