A 150-musician flashmob from Romania has gathered together to deliver a passionate rendition of Green Day’s 2004 American Idiot hit, Boulevard of Broken Dreams.
Going by the name CITYROCKS, the flashmob gathered on the grounds of Bánffy Castle with an epic chorus of vocalists, guitarists, bassists and drummers, aged eight to eighty, transforming the lamentation on loneliness into an anthem of camaraderie through their collective spirit.

Proving perseverance will always pay off, after the band saw this viral performance for themselves, they decided to bring their stadium-sized rock show to the good folks of the Romanian town Cessna.
Previously, CITYROCKS have combined their talents on classic covers like Nirvana’s Smells Like Teen Spirit and Metallica’s Enter Sandman and many more. Watch on YouTube, here.
And, while we’re here, let’s remember Green Day’s original cinematic music video for the 2004 smash.
