He seems to be underrated. People hear Green Day's songs and on first listen a lot of their songs seem extremely simple, which is mostly because of the guitar's power chords, but when you listen closely to the bass lines on Dookie, you'll realize there's tons and tons of details in them.

If you look closely to the guitars, you gonna see that there's much more than power chords. Billie Joe mixes power chords and full chords and uses different chord shapes in the same song.

This man is really incredible. He is an inspiration as a bassist, a musician, and just a person in general.

This dude was a huge inspiration and influence on 16-year old, newly minted bassist me in 1991. I heard Kerplunk and bass made SENSE. You can contribute to the melody, you can push the others, you can fill any hole. As far as I'm concerned he's one of the great bassists of the era.

Not only is he an amazing bass player, he also has amazing sideburns

To me, ONLY Mike Dirnt can rock the sideburns.

Mike Dirnt: Legend and former master of the bass guitar

i bought the bassman 800 because of this video. its been over a year now and i am very happy with this head. every practice i say out loud how much i like it. very glad it doesnt suck!

Always loved Mike's playing and he was one of my favorite bass players as a kid and in dookie era. He has a very unique sound and i like that his not playing what guitar plays and that makes him really stand out. Truly inspirational player. Now i play guitar and bass but i have a special love for the bass. "Bass is the balls of a band" as we say in Finland.

very cool of fender to do this with everyone I grew up listening to.

what a great bassist, makes such addictive rhythms, even when you don't notice them, you're still addicted to it, green day wouldn't be a band without this man

*when playing 80* That's been a while IT SURE HAS MIKE, IT SURE HAS

I love that he played the bassline from '80' : )

His Fills are really what brings Green Days sound together So Much.. Beyond Talented.. We Love You Mike!!

We love you, mike you’re an awesome, and my favorite bassist. Green Day would not be the same without you, you’re the krazy glue holding them together, keep on pickin’ and slappin’

Everyone listen to him play Panic Song. The man actually injured himself playing it. What a guy

Love my Fender amps. I've got two rumble 500's and 4 2x10 cabs. Sounds awesome for all types of music.

A song within a song! Thats exactly what I have been calling my playing for over 20 yrs now!!

All the basslines he played, all basslines i learned to play bass to circa 1996. I still find Dirtnisms in my playing sometimes. Influenced me a lot even though i don't play punk anymore and havent really in probably 20 years.

One of my favourite bassists. Also he is playing Welocme to Paradise in standard tuning at the start👍.

what i love about green day, is how they're not only awesome musicians, but also awesome people

Mike and Brian Marshall are the reason I learned to play bass guitar. Criminally underrated bassists

The first bassist that I admired...thanks Mike...i started playing bass because of you..

Mike Dirnt.... HELLA Underrated Bass Player IMO........ Simple Riffs...... But Hard Hitting...... And Catchy AF....... His Bass Riffs on Longview..... Holiday...... And Many More....... So Good..... You Hear it Once..... and You can't Quite Forget Them....... I Respect That Kind of Guitar Playing Style..... Same goes with BILLIE JOEs Guitar Riffs/Solos...... I Love Green Day.....

what a super cool guy and kick ass bass player love the sound of his Fender Precision

Mike Dirnt was the reason I picked up bass, after my dad got me into Green Day. He and I would blast it all the time and he really wanted me to play bass.

I listen to Green Day for years ("duh dude, we see your profile pic") but at some point, one day at random, i pay attention to the bass for the fist time... and i realize how much i love it and how much of the sound comes from there. Since then i have huge respect for Mike Dirnt.

Mikes voice is so soothing to me omg i love his man 💞💞

He’s such a great bass player and has killer fills

this is what the bass should be all about. i don't get bands where you can hardly hear the bass, or its just super basic. in green day all three of them really showed up ♥

Mike is such a great bassist and amazing goofball BTW when he plays 80 I started to tear up.

Watched this video so many times. So great

Go Mike! One of the best bassist on Earth!

I saw Mike Drint in concert. We ❤️ you Mike Drint Mike Mike Mike Mike

I love the tone when he hits that low E string ooof that is the sound of thunder

0:48 Legendary

That tone, that groove, that charisma. Such talented bassist but underrated.

him and Billy sheehan are the only two bassists that I think really really pull of fast basslines, the way they both flow between notes is so satisfying. Maybe its just a function of them using similar tones, but damn

This dude was my idol growing up. I wanted to be like him and play like him. I'm 24 now and I still think he is cool.

wow perfect tone i need this

Because of this man, I now play bass in a school of rock house band.

Who says real bassists don't use picks?? This man is a damn legend. Love you Mike!

I'm so happy he played Stuart and the Ave.

His tone is what brought me to bass

I think the "No one knows" bass line is WAY better than the "Longview" bass line. I was expecting him to play it when he started talking about Kerplunk...

Gracias a él tocó bajo. Es un ídolo para mi.

I’m not a huge Green Day fan but man I sure can respect mike as a player. Pretty talented

Gracias Mike amo el bajo y su sonido de bajo es mi maximo estandar 🖤

Such a huge inspiration on me as a bass player!

Love that tone

Gotta love our sweet bass dad... Also, the bit about BJ getting him his first Fender!! dawww

Toca muito, linhas bem trabalhadas!!

I play guitar, but everyone has been telling me that I should play the bass. Quite honestly, this man is the sole reason that I would ever imagine playing the bass.
