[caption=Mike's Idiot Club Q&A]082312_mikeidiotclubinterview.jpg[/caption]Wednesday morning, the Idiot Club finally posted their Q&A session with Mike Dirnt, who answered fan-submited questions. Earlier today, the Idiot Club posted part II of that interview, where Mike discusses such topics as the song "Platypus," the beginnings of Tré Cool, and coffee.

One other topic Mike addresses are the high and low points of Green Day's career. Part of his answer included this:

I don't think of our career as high points or low points. There are parts of our personal lives that see difficulty. You can either let it devour you or start swinging and come out on top.
