“Please rest assured that the main performance by Green Day will proceed as planned and we’re committed to delivering an incredible concert experience for you,” they wrote.Some local fans online can be seen rejoicing by the latest update as previously Bunkface was scrutinized by social media users when they were first announced as the opener for the award-winning band back in January this year.
Social media users previously were seen questioning the decision as Green Day is known for their political, anti-establishment and social activism through their music which is quite the opposite of Bunkface who were previously criticised for penning the ‘Malaysia Madani’ theme song for the current Malaysian government.“Now I feel like buying a last minute ticket, thank you Green Day for dropping off Bunkface,” user @Zara Kayangan tweeted.
The Green Day Live in Kuala Lumpur concert will take place at the National Hockey Stadium in Bukit Jalil and this will mark the first time the ‘American Idiot’ band performs in Malaysia.
