Green day“Burning Coachella The set draws backlash as well as politically charged lyrics.

The legendary punk rock trio known for their inspiring performances sparked a fire Saturday night after palm trees ignited due to fireworks used in Green Day’s headline set at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, California.

In the video obtained People Magazinewhen festival fans gather and are surprised by the flames, you can see the flames swallowing palm trees. The incident sparked quick rage online, especially given the history of California’s devastating wildfires.

“After all California wildfires, are they using fireworks?! That’s fine. They’ll hold profit concerts.”

Another user added, “I can’t believe they’re allowed to fire fireworks at times like 100 degrees in LA.”

The third person cried out, “They just burned Coachella,” but someone else said, “This is why we can’t get good stuff.”

One viewer compared the moment to an infamous musical disaster. “It’s a flashback from Woodstock ’99, but there are palm trees.”

In addition to fire-related controversy, frontman Billy Joe Armstrong rekindled political conversations during the band’s performance for their hit song “American Idiot.”

With the clip obtained with BillboardArmstrong changes lyrics and takes a direct jab at the president Donald Trumpsing, “I’m not part of the Magazine agenda,” “I’m not part of the redneck agenda,”

This is not the first time that Green Day frontman has made his political views clear. Earlier this year, Armstrong performed the same revised lyrics on ABC’s “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve” just weeks before Trump took office.

Additionally, at the concert on March 1st, Armstrong asked the crowd. Elon Musk How to shut down f-ck? ”

The crowd erupted in cheers, as Armstrong added.

“Nana, I’m not going to get mad.

During the next song on their set in 2004’s Jesus of Suburbs, Billy Joe Armstrong continued to come with a political jab. He changed the original lyrics. “Are I being r-tarded or am I JD vance?” a pointy swipe to the Vice President.

The tweaks to the lyrics came at a press conference on Thursday, February 27th, when international headlines were still buzzing about Donald Trump’s recent elliptical office failure, unable to remember the significance of security agreements between Orcas, Australia, the UK and the US.

That diplomatic failure followed the next day by a tense exchange between Trump and Ukrainian President Voldimi Zelensky, raising new concerns about the future of the alliance with Ukraine in Australia.

Also during Coachella’s performance in “Suburban Jesus,” frontman Billy Joe Armstrong changed the lyrics to “Escape from the pain of children from Palestine.”

The band conveyed their message without covering the music. Their setlist featured below spans decades of fan favorite tracks, including “Holiday,” “Longview,” “Welcome to Welcome,” “Basket Case,” and their recent release, “One Eyed B-Star.”

Green Day paid tribute to the Rock Legend during the show. They worked on the iconic riff of Black Sabbath’s “Iron Man” during “Hitchin a Ride,” and nodded to Tom Petty’s “Free Fallin” and “waking me up when September was over and opening me.”

Coachella is just marked the beginning of Green Day’s busy festival season. Green Day is also being directed to headlines for Rockville, Bottle Rock, Minnesota Yacht Club and oceans, which will call later this year.
