The last 2 times green day played at gilman street were special. Here's an excerpt from an interview with Lawrence Livermore that used to be on greenday.ws:

WHAT IS YOUR FONDEST MEMORY OF THE BAND?

"I'm thinking of a couple things. One was how they would just come by my room, when it was still the Lookout office, and just hang out, and talk about music or anything and everything else. The other would be the last time Green Day played Gilman Street (well, there was another unannounced time for somebody's birthday, but I wasn't there for that). Anyway, this was right around Christmas, 1993, just before Dookie came out, and another of my favorite bands, Brent's TV, was also playing. Green Day played under a fake name, so only about 150 people were there, and almost everyone knew each other and knew all the words to all the songs by both bands. So we were all dancing and singing along together, and it was all warm and festive and family-like, but there was also this bittersweet feeling that came from knowing that things would never be like this again, that this was the last time we'd all be together this way."

Even though Gilman street doesn't book major label bands, Green Day played Gilman street on September 16, 2001. Excerpt from an interview in Q magazine (may 2005):

"Though "too succesfull" to play after Dookie, they hopped onstage a few years ago and did a show. "No one bitched on the night but they sure debated it the day after," smiles Dirnt."
