Green Day has been one of the biggest bands in the world for over three decades now, but until recently, they had not received the music biopic treatment. I spoke to Green Day and had to ask just how realistic the scenes on the road were, and the answer I got from Billie Joe Armstrong was somewhat surprising, but completely made sense. It’s endless miles on the road driving from gig to gig, sweating and sticking up cars with body odors (or worse). Any band, from the guys in the garage down the street from you to Green Day, goes through this rite of passage. It’s easy to forget that even bands as big as Green Day started with pure hustle.
