Why wonderwall? I thought everyone knows stairway to heaven?

The first time I saw Greenday in 1994, they had the audience decide between two guys to play one song. When I saw them again after they became the major band of the era, they did the same thing but a little different. Still one of the fans got to get on stage, play BJ's guitar and for sure a wonderful moment.
All that said, considering the way punks think, this is probably just the most recent shenanigans. I am willing to bet that someone started to play Freebird long before someone attempted to sneak in Wonderwall
Would actually be funny if someone were to try and play some of the George Harrison Wonderwall
They uses to do "knowledge" by operation ivy regularly. The bands were old friends from the east bay punk scene and the cover was like a tribute. A 3 chord banger that anyone could play and the crowd would get into. It was really cool when younger audience members were able to learn it on the spot and then the band backed them up.

Ah so that's why Otto plays it to Bart when he's learning to play the guitar.

Greenday might be oversold and played out but they put on a great fuckin show.

Green Day is as punk as Nickleback is metal.

Freebird for Millennials.
the difference being, freebird is a nightmare and shouting "freebird!" at bands is more akin to "you suck" while wonderwall is an ironic "got you"

If a random band does play Freebird to those kind of requests, they'll often only play the first half with vocals. The second, more instrumental half is the Rock Band hard mode of hard mode.

I used to work at Olive Garden and they had a old school swing-like cover that would play every couple hours, my wife hated it lmao.

Also, American Idiot is one of the best mainstream albums to come out this century

My understanding is that it's the Rickroll of the guitar-playing world.
It's fairly straightforward for the novice to play, and is associated with the hipster who lugs a guitar everywhere as a fashion accessory rather than to develop any musical talent, where their repertoire is limited to two or three four-chord wonder songs.
In this instance, the guitarist has given the audience member the chance of a lifetime to shred in front of a crowd that most amateur band members will never see in a lifetime... and instead threw out the "so anyway here's Wonderwall" meme and dropped a simple meme song.
Happy to be corrected.
You're pretty much spot on here. No need for a correction.
OP, this is your answer.

Wonder what the intro (up to the start of the lyrics) to Nothing Else Matters would be seen as
