Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong has been revealing his hard rock roots in recent weeks, sharing his love of AC/DC and Van Halen. But the idea of the Californian stadium punk superstars busking a Bad Company classic for network television during the promo campaign for their new album 'Saviors' wasn't something we had anticipated, in all honesty. And judging by the surprised looks on their faces, it wasn't something that New York city commuters were expecting to see this week either.
To be fair, Bille Joe Armstrong's band were heavily disguised when they set about serenading Manhattan commuters on the platform of the 50th Street subway station beneath the Rockefeller Center, and they had also gained a new temporary frontman, US chat show host Jimmy Fallon, whose idea it was to take the Berkeley punks busking.
