Carquinez Middle School
This school is where Billie Joe and Mike met.
‘Our school district went bankrupt, so they closed down the junior high and combined two elementary schools. We used to have to take the bus out there. First day of elementary school, I think in fifth grade, I was like the class clown – but Mike was like the class clown, so it was kind of like these dueling banjos that were going to go back and forth. What you get is Deliverance. Mike is my musical soulmate.’ — Billie Joe Armstrong in his Rock & Roll Hall of Fame acceptance speech, 2015
