Isn't it strange, how many an artist have been inspired, even by Elvis '68?

This is a video from 2019, but I don't follow videos much anymore. New to my eyes, thanks for the share!

It's garnered a decent amount of views: 10,459,871 views Premiered Sep 19, 2019.

Green Day is definitely using the iconic stage design from "Singer Presents Elvis" and the also iconic gold lamé Elvis stage wear.

It's a fun video from a band now in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

I've known them since they were teenagers called Sweet Children and John Kiffmeyer (aka "Al Sobrante") played drums. It blows my mind that they play stadiums these days (see 'em at 924 Gilman and Oracle Park), and deliver a superb show.

Leader Billie Joe Armstrong is a generational talent and always on the right side of history.

Nice find. Green Day are great, and American Idiot still resonates today, especially how they sing it live.
