It's not uncommon these days for bands to occasionally turn their video making over to fans, usually as some sort of competition. But Green Day just had one of their classic tracks turned into a visually interesting piece through the use of virtual Legos and it came about unsolicited from the group.
Green Day are starting to get back on track after their fall of 2012 and early 2013 were derailed by frontman Billie Joe Armstrong's stint in rehab. Armstrong's troubles came to a head as their heavy promotional schedule took them to Las Vegas for a show last fall in which the frontman went on a guitar-smashing rant onstage. With the band preparing their return to touring, bassist Mike Dirnt addressed the past issues and their current state with Rolling Stone.
Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong went to rehab smack dab in the middle of the band's release schedule for its trio of albums '¡Uno!,' '¡Dos!' and '¡Tré!' You know it must have been bad for him to have pulled out of promoting and supporting the trilogy. Turns it was bad. Really bad.
Not one but two films will be shown at South by Southwest in Austin.
The band’s documentary about their last three albums will be screened this weekend in Colorado.
After Billie Joe Armstrong's stint in rehab, the band is now looking forward to getting back on the stage and making up for lost time.
Although the spot was cut from the final version of the film during the editing process, Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong played a cameo role as himself in the latest Judd Apatow film, ‘This is 40.’ While the clip doesn't appear on the big screen, fans can now check out the lost footage online, seen below.
Green Day being down a rehabbing member hasn't kept them from releasing new music and even creating music videos. Rather than the band starring in the clip for their latest single, 'Stray Heart,' they've served up a concept video in which the stars are a guy with a gaping hole and his extremely mobile heart.
The band made a contribution to the soundtrack for “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2.”
The band is making changes due to Billie Joe Armstrong's stint in rehab.
