The Saints are Coming – Live
As a New Orleans native, this video has special meaning for me. On September 25, 2006, the Louisiana Superdome was reopened for the first New Orleans Saints (NFL) football game since before Hurricane Katrina hit the city. A massive pre-game celebration commemorated the event, with the highlight being this performance of Green Day and U2. Even now as I watch this video it reminds me of what happened during that time, and how through music these bands inspired something that had been briefly lost in New Orleans in the aftermath of Katrina…..hope.
