"THANK YOU for making my amazing kid's dream come true”: Green Day facilitate a mother and child reunion

A young fan performs with Green Day.

Here’s a story sure to gladden the glummest of faces: Green Day managed to reunite a mother and son at one of their open-air shows over the weekend.

It happened on Sunday evening (September 21) when the band were headlining the final day of the Riot Fest at Chicago’s Douglass Park. Bobbi Cantrell had driven all the way from Indiana with her son, Argyle, to see Green Day – it was part of the young lad’s 16th birthday celebration. The pair arrived around noon to help ensure a spot near the front of the stage for the band’s set which was due to start around 8.15pm.
