Notes

Recordings from this show can be found here
pogopop: "The Zillo show was very cool! This festival is attended mainly by goths/industrial music fans who passionately hate punk music. Tough crowd for Green Day, I guess. They had to played after Rammstein - metal band which was at the very peak of its popularity in Germany. But Green Day somehow managed to pull it off! Billie Joe worked the crowd well, making everyone clap, move, sing and shout accompanied by drumrolls, courtesy of Tre Cool. At first, people were bummed but then they cheered up. During King For A Day Billie took off his pants to show off his leopard print G-string. Towards the end of Green Day's set Tre Cool set his drums on fire. Everyone was amazed by his bold move. They have left their mark in the history of Zillo Festival."
