The 31-Song Covers Set Green Day Members Played Before Coachella

Green Day members played a 31-song covers show at a small club in California before their second headlining Coachella set last week.

It was an eventful week for the rockers, who headlined Coachella on Saturday during both weekends (April 12 and April 19). In between playing for the massive festival audiences, they performed a small concert in a nearby town under a different name.

The show in question took place on April 17 at Pappy & Harriet's in Pioneertown, California. They didn't actually play the show as Green Day, but as The Coverups, which is a side project of Green Day members Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt, touring guitarist Jason White and audio engineer Chris Dugan, as well as Bill Schneider on bass.

They played 31 cover songs during the set, spanning many different artists from a variety of genres. They had some punk in there of course (Ramones, The Clash, Misfits), as well as hair metal (Motley Crue, Poison), glam rock (David Bowie, Sweet), Ozzy Osbourne and some others.

For whatever reason, they tackled Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love" three different times, ending after the second verse on takes two and three [via Setlist.fm]. See a clip of one of their Zeppelin performances below, and the full setlist from the evening underneath.
