This is not actually Green Day news, but Emily's Army will support Rise Against in Germany. Most of you probably already knew but I was surprised when I saw their name on the posters.

9 Great Cameos from Musicians on 'The Simpsons'

Green Day on The Simpsons Movie

Playing a rock 'n' roll version of The Simpsons theme song would be just a little too easy of a way to crack onto this list. Green Day sticks around however, delivering an environmental protection speech while performing on a barge in Lake Springfield. This induces the ire of the crowd, which sinks the boat with a barrage of garbage, setting the later pollution plot in motion. During the band members' funerals, the organist at the First Church of Springfield plays "American Idiot."

:lol: That's great. Quite a lot is (intentionally) inaccurate though lol. Referring to OutKast as one person was a nice touch.

7 Things We Just Learned About 'Empire Records'

Empire Records could have been Billie Joe Armstrong’s feature-film debut. The Green Day singer was pegged for the role of Deb’s boyfriend Berko, but was replaced by Coyote Shivers, due to his conflicting tour schedule. So, yes, in another universe, your perfect ‘90s alterna-couple might have been Angelina Jolie and Billie Joe Armstrong.

The List: Top 10 bands with color names

7. Green Day

OK, so American Idiot (and all subsequent albums) might have been ill-advised, but don’t forget, before their commercial drop off, these dudes just wanted to make punk music and smoke reefer.

More than just a music video

The "Wake Me Up When September Ends" music video is seven minutes and 12 seconds of gripping acting

Twitter: celebrity RIP tributes gone wrong

Neil Armstrong / Lance Armstrong...and Louis Armstrong...and Neil Patrick Harris...and Billie Joe Armstrong

It starts to get a bit silly when the Twitter Chinese whispers bring more than two or three people into the mix. That was the case when Neil Armstrong, the first man on the moon, was confused with jazz musician Louis Armstrong, disgraced professional cyclist Lance Armstrong, Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong and, least forgivably, How I Met Your Mother actor Neil Patrick Harris.

This reminds me to 2003's ''''''new''''' reporting Billie Joe dead

green day logo appeared in this today. This dry spell needs to end.

If Green Day did the music for Destiny, then I might just get it on console. Otherwise I'll be waiting for PC.

Mike walked in support of his wife, Brittney Cade Dirnt, who was diagnosed with breast cancer this past April at the young age of 31. Mike and their family participated in the Avon Walk to show their support not only for Brittney, but for everyone currently fighting this disease.

“I was moved by the Avon Walk this weekend,” said Mike Dirnt, “My wife is currently battling this disease, so it was both inspiring and encouraging to speak with survivors and their loved ones.”
