I do two hours of a weekend at a friends rock school - teaching kids to perform and play together in bands. I usually get given the better ones and as a result we get adventurous; to date we've done a few mash ups and a really cool Billie Jean / You Give Love A Bad Name mix. This term we're doing a Green Day medley but while it sounds good, we can't quite make it properly fit. The order is shown in the picture, I hope it makes sense.



Any suggestions to improve? Green Day are far from diverse and the kids can play most of their stuff so any other ideas are welcome!

Surely anything live based on green day needs to finish with good riddence. I know its possibly not the best guitar wise but still.

Time of your life/ good riddance is the same song

I've got it, it'll end with the homecoming "I dont feel any shame" harmonised with "another turning point...", then go into that crescendo part from homecoming.

I appreciate this probably makes no sense, but it actually sounds really good when the kids put these together. However, if there's any other ideas of parts of GD songs that fit into each other, it'd be good to hear.
