It was really just Billie Joe at the time... He was trying to go solo by playing in coffee shops and whatnot

here you go:

"In 1987, Billie Joe and Mike recruited drummer John Kriftmeyer (aka Al Sobrante) and formed the band Sweet Children. They played their first official gig at Rod's Hickory Pit in Vallejo, CA"

I guess Kelly's right. I don't know much about their early days.

My love for Green Day is based on a lie :cry:

Well he could only play like, one song at each show cause he would get too tired from running all over the stage

And thats how Mike and John got into the picture, but then John left to become the human canon ball at a circus and Tre was hired
