Notes:
  • Steve Koepke: "mar 7 sat Samiam, Green Day at U.C. Santa Cruz about 2pm (Porter College Five Quad)"
  • Dave: "When I saw Green Day open for Samiam in the UCSC-Porter College quad, I never thought they'd be big."
  • Helena: "I was at that Green Day show too. It was so mellow! Nice thing to do on a sunny weekend afternoon when you're hungover..."
  • Sara Cameron Goyette: "I booked this show ... I paid Green Day with some cans of food and enough gas money to get back to Berkeley."
  • lorelei: "I saw Green Day play in the Quad at Porter - there was almost nobody there to watch them, which is kind of funny when I think about it now."
  • rocky: "Heh, I was the sound engineer for that Green Day show. Aaron Cometbus was there! I did most of the sound for Porter events by the time '90 to '92 rolled around."
  • "I saw Green Day in 1992 in the courtyard of Porter College in Santa Cruz with about 20-30 other people just laying out in the grass. The band hadn't sold out then either and were just awesome!"
  • Max: "Green Day, UC Santa Cruz, 1992. Pre-Dookie, when Green Day was just another Gilman Street band, they played outside our dorm at Porter College for some sort of end-of-the-year spring event."
