Frequently Asked Green Day Questions

Are Green Day touring in my state/country this year?
They might be! Green Day is still announcing dates for 2010, but we only post confirmed dates. You can see all the dates on the tour page.
Are Green Day splitting up? / Is their next album going to be their last?
Of course not. This rumor always comes up with a new album. The band has said numerous times they don't plan on ever breaking up. Billie Joe has said in interviews that the only way anyone is leaving the band is in a body bag.
Does Billie, Mike, Tré or any of their family have Facebook/Myspace/Twitter etc. accounts?
Tre has an account on Facebook for his drums, which he advertised in Drummer Magazine (facebook.com/trecoolsdrums), but no other members have personal accounts anywhere else on web. The only place we've seen members post occasionally is on twitter.com/greenday. If you come across accounts on the web claiming to be members of Green Day, don't believe them. There are tons of fakes out there.
Does Green Day go online?
Yes, they are aware of 15 year old technology. They don't go around places saying "Hi, I'm a member of Green Day", but I'm sure they know how to find porn like the rest of the world.
Can I have Green Day's email address?
They don't need to be bombarded with fan emails. They are busy men, and we respect their privacy, so we don't publish any personal contact information.
Are any members of Green Day gay or bi?
Billie Joe mentioned in an 1995 interview with Advocate magazine "I think I’ve always been bisexua" (full article). The whole band has good humor about sexuality, so they do joke around about it a lot, but whether or not they're actually bi, who knows. At this point, they all have kids and are (or have been) married - so it doesn't really matter.
Is Billie Joe dying of cancer/(insert other deadly diseases here)?
No. This rumor has been going on for years. It's time to let this one go.
Is Adrienne (Billie Joe's wife) pregnant?
We've been getting this email for over 5 years. If she's pregnant, she's well over due. Billie and Adie deserve their privacy as a family, so things like this wouldn't be published on GDA unless they announced something.
When did Green Day get together?
Billie Joe, Mike, and original drummer John Kiffmeyer (Al Sobrante) formed Sweet Children 1987. They later changed their name to Green Day and Tre joined the band between the release of 1039/Smooth and Kerplunk. Full band biography
What is John Kiffmeyer doing now?
He left Green Day to attend Humboldt State University. He's married and lives in the San Francisco area with his wife and kid.
How can I contact the band?
There's no certain way to get a hold of them. The Idiot Club used to take questions for the band, some of which they'd answer in monthly videos - but that hasn't been done in years. The best option (still with no guarantee they'll see it) is send letters to:
Green Day
c/o Warner Bros. Records Inc.
P.O. Box 6868
Burbank, CA 91510
Can you send me/post pictures of the guys naked?

Frequently Asked GDA Questions

When did GDA start?
The first origin of GDA started in 2000 by our founder, Courtney Smith. The actual site kicked off July 1, 2001 and we've been building it up since then. You can read the full history of GDA right here.
If I send you an e-mail can you give it to Green Day for me?
Nope.
Does Green Day know about GDA?
Yes. We've been lucky enough to meet the band a few times, and they've brought up the site with us. Tre even helped correct us with his drums on the Equipment page
Can I link GDA on my site?
Yes! We appreciate anyone posting a link to GDA on their MySpace or website. Visit our link us page for banners and codes.
Can I join the GDA team?
We aren't really looking for new members, but if you believe you have something new and some skill to offer GDA, send us an email.
Can I use your wallpaper/images/etc?
You are welcome to use anything we post on GDA BUT you must credit GDA as your source. We don't mind sharing all our resources with you guys for free, but it sucks when we come across sites that steal our stuff and give no credit to us.
Can you teach me HTML/PHP/Java/ or help me with my site?
No, sorry. We have plenty to keep us busy as it is. Our suggestion is to visit w3schools.org. That site has a lot of tutorials for beginners to learn new stuff.
How do edit your images?
Most of our images are altered with Photoshop. For simple resizing we use IrfanView.
Where can I get the fonts you use on GDA?
Well first check our font downloads page. If you can't find the font there, the best site for free font downloads is dafont.com
How can I contact you guys?
That's easy, check out the Contact Us page.
