Green Day performs surprise acoustic set in NYC subway

A mundane subway ride turned into the time of some commuters’ lives Wednesday evening.

Green Day put the rock back in Rockefeller Center when it teamed up with NBC’s “Tonight Show” host Jimmy Fallon to serenade straphangers at the 47-50th Street station in Midtown Manhattan around 8 p.m.

The pop-punk band and the talk show host launched into a platform performance that included their tunes “Basket Case” and “American Idiot” as well as the Kiss hit “Rock and Roll All Nite.”

Fallon and band members Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt and Tré Cool emerged disguised, sporting phony beards and performing a cover of Bad Company’s “I Feel Like Making Love.”

But the fakeout didn’t last long, as Fallon ripped off his disguise and introduced the band, which is set to release its 14th studio album, entitled “Saviors,” on Friday.

Throngs of commuters and fans who’d caught wind of the secret show ahead of time crowded the makeshift stage as the band launched into their famous tunes — many of them jumping up and down, singing every word and taking cellphone footage.

The action was caught and shared to X by Post editor Mark Lungariello as he was leaving the newsroom.

The performance did not air on Wednesday’s episode of “Tonight Show” and it’s unclear when it will be part of the broadcast.

The East Bay, California-based band is ramping up to hit the road with fellow 90s rock icons The Smashing Pumpkins this summer.
