Green Day are an American rock band formed in 1989 comprising three core members: Billie Joe Armstrong (guitar, lead vocals), Mike Dirnt (bass) and Tré Cool (drums).

Green Day was originally part of the punk rock scene at 924 Gilman Street in Berkeley, California. Their early releases for independent label Lookout! Records earned them a grassroots fanbase, some of whom felt alienated when the band signed to a major label. Nevertheless, their major label debut Dookie became a breakout success in 1994 and eventually sold over 10 million copies in the U.S. alone. As a result, Green Day was widely credited, along with fellow California punk bands The Offspring and Rancid, with reviving mainstream interest in and popularizing punk rock in the United States. Green Day's immediate follow-up albums did not achieve the massive success of Dookie, but they were still successful. Their 2004 rock opera American Idiot reignited the band's popularity with a younger generation, selling 5 million copies in the U.S.

The band has sold over 60 million records worldwide, including 22 million in the United States alone. Their success has influenced prominent pop punk bands such as Sum 41, New Found Glory, and Good Charlotte. Green Day currently has three Grammy Awards for Best Alternative Album for Dookie, Best Rock Album for American Idiot, and Record of the Year for "Boulevard of Broken Dreams."

    A great op-ed piece over at Next Generation.From the story: There will be a few meetings and conference calls at Sony next week. On the agenda will be E3. Do we look better than we did a week ago? But there will also be the question of the confusion that has surrounded the future of PS3's 60 Gig version over the past 24 hours.
