Green Day’s Billy Joe Armstrong Emotional in Front of 50,000 Fans; Here’s Why

Green Day is gracing the world together again with their concert tours, and with the rollout of the "Hella Mega Tour" on the United Kingdom and Europe with Fall Out Boy and Weezer - the band might have found their best crowd yet.

Usually, a huge and lively crowd could still make bands or artists overwhelmed with joy with such number of people jamming to their songs.

Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong recently succumbed to tears after seing their large crowd in Argentina.

In a post shared on their Instagram account, the rock band has posted a video of their performance at the Buenos Aires' Estadio Vélez Sarsfield in Argentina.

Moved with the massive display of enthusiasm if their fans, Billie Joe Armstrong could not help but be moved with the breatthaking view of the crowd.

Singing in front of a 50,000 strong crowd, the 50-year-old vocalist has hyped up the crowd even more - jumping and screaming in unison on the first part on their last song of the night, "Jesus of Suburbia."

"F--cking Argentina! This is the craziest show I've had. You're making me f--cking cry. Show the world, Argentina," Billy Joe Armstrong screamed on the stage as Green Day fans jump in unison and sang along the first parts of the song.

According to Kerrang!, the goosebump-inducing moment came after a 20 track setlist for the Argentina concert.

Opening with their most prominent song in their music career, Green Day sang the GRAMMY-winning song "American Idiot" from their album of the same name. "Jesus of Suburbia," their closing song, also came from the same 2004 album.
