Jimmy Hendrix's Perfomance.

Green Day mud fight
Green Day's performance on stage was undoubtedly the best, visually. A punk band, I think their music is spectacular compared to the innovative punk along the lines of the Levellers and Fugazi. In fact, they are so stereotypically punk that it almost seems like they are parodying it: the lead singer and drummer had brightly coloured blue and green hair and their lyrics are whiny. But they were tireless on stage and pushed the momentum to its limits. The best thing about their show no doubt. -
