Wasn't it the Green Day singer that asked the German fans to perform the nazi salute "as a joke" during a concert and when they did said "you did it again you dumb motherfuckers", threw the microphone and walked off stage?

Not saying it did not happen but unlikely. The Nazi salute is illegal in Germany and a Green Day audience is not the sort of crowd that would do it anyway. And before anybody else jums in: yes, there are fascists in Germany that will show the Nazi salute but a) they are a minority and b) liable to get prosecuted.

Sieg Heil to the president gasman, Live 8 in Berlin at Siegessäule

I can't find the crowd salute through Google. Maybe it was somebody else. They definitely yell sieg heil in Germany however.

Interesting. I wonder if he ever got prosecuted for it or if intellectual laws protect the song. Either way, pretty poor form.
