Unexpected Stage Moment
At a recent Green Day show in Luxembourg, the band was in for a surprise when Billie Joe Armstrong invited a fan on stage for a special performance. Traditionally, fans are called up to play Green Day’s “Good Riddance,” but this time, the young man opted for a different tune altogether. As he strummed the opening chords of Oasis’s “Wonderwall,” the audience erupted with excitement.
Armstrong initially thought the fan had simply hit the wrong notes. Laughingly, he tried to guide him back to the intended song by giving some quick instructions. However, it soon became clear that the fan was intentionally playing “Wonderwall,” leaving Armstrong amused but ultimately leading to the fan’s swift exit from the stage.
Liam Gallagher’s Amused Reaction
The incident didn’t take long to circulate online, reaching the eyes of Liam Gallagher himself. On X (formerly Twitter), Gallagher playfully remarked, “Best song of the night,” acknowledging the enduring appeal of “Wonderwall.” His comment added a layer of humor to the situation and delighted fans of both Oasis and Green Day.
