Recently, Green Day front man Billie Joe Armstrong appeared on Real Time with Bill Maher. He promoted Green Day’s Broadway show American Idiot. In the interview they discussed the progression of Green Day’s sound, politics, the origin of the band’s name (pot) and what it’s like for him to now have a teenage son and be married. The interview is interesting and definitely good for a laugh.
You can check out a clip here where Billie Joe touches on the whole “are we punk” issue. To see a different clip go here. To see the rest of the interview you’ll have to catch a rerun on HBO. Green Day is currently supporting their latest album 21st Century Breakdown on tour with AFI. For a complete list of dates and locations visit Green Day’s official website.
