Summary
Formed in California's East Bay in 1987 by 15-year-old Billie Joe Armstrong and Mike Dirnt (later joined by drummer Tre Cool), Green Day has gone on to become one of the world's most popular rock bands. Lauded for bringing punk rock to the masses, Green Day's remarkable rise from teenage garage band to multi-platinum artists is documented here for the first time to coincide with the band's 25th anniversary. Author Alan di Perna, who has interviewed Green Day's three members several times, offers readers and fans a complete band history, from their formation and first gigs in Berkeley, California, through their many bestselling releases, critically acclaimed Broadway show American Idiot, and latest studio efforts. The text is accompanied by more than 300 stunning images, including concert and candid off-stage photography, gig posters and handbills, 7-inch picture sleeves, backstage passes, and more
