Show Notes: Surprise appearance for the annual Clive Davis Pre-Grammy Gala.

Rolling Stone: "At 9:30 sharp, the show began, and Serena Williams, wearing a black dress with gold sleeves, introduced “her favorite band” Green Day. The group first performed “American Idiot,” with Billie Joe Armstrong once again replacing the “redneck agenda” lyric with “MAGA agenda.” “Don’t cheer, vote,” Armstrong said before launching into the Dookie classic “Basket Case.” Williams stood stage left, recording the whole performance and singing along to every word."

USA Today: "The California trio opened Davis’ party and landed an introduction from super-fan Williams, who joked she wanted to join their summer stadium tour as a mascot. But Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt and Tré Cool need little more than their amps turned up to 11 to invigorate a crowd. A tight, punchy “American Idiot” (MAGA line intact) paired with the 30-year-old “Dookie” favorite “Basket Case” for a rollicking appetizer of the night. Even though they were playing a ballroom stage, Green Day attacked their assignment with the vigor of a stadium setting."
