An American punk- rock band ( not punk-pop Billie Joe wants to destroy that term) formed in 1989 by lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong, bassist Mike Dirnt and drummer (at the time) John Kiffmeyer. They released their first album in 1990 to Lookout Records. Then their second Kerplunk in 1992. Since there was such a large demand for Keplunk they switched to a larger company. Then John Kiffmeyer left the band for college. They needed a new drummer so Trè Cool was chose and quickly became one of the family. They released their album Dookie in 1994 which became the definition of 1990s punk. With hits such as When I come Around, Longview, And Basket Case. Then in 2004 American Idiot came out and Green Day's popularity surged. Everyone loved boulevard of broken dreams and obsessed over it. In 2009 they released 21st Century Breakdown. In 2012 they released the trio album Uno, Dos, and Tré. Since then green days taken a break but are said to be releasing an album this year.

Get the Green Daymug. The best band ever. Bands such as My Chemical Romance and Good Charolette try to copy them but fail. Formed in 1987 as Sweet Children with a different drummer than Tre Cool named Al Sobrante. Since then, they have been the most awesome and amazing and ever.

Get the green daymug. 1.) Seems like many folks get the association with marijuana correct but are badly misinterpret the slang/context. Back in the late 80s and 90s a "Green Day" was NOT a day spent smoking marijuana, it was the day AFTER a copious amount of weed/THC was consumed. When one awoke and was still high from the prior nights festivities, THAT was the "green day"...
2.) Green Day - A SoCal pop-punk band which arose in the late 90s to capitalize off of the punk revival launched by bands like Rancid, Dropkick Murphys, Pennywise, The Vandals, etc... Known for fast aggressive pop-punk songs that sound vaguely like other songs and a primadonna front man who grossly overestimates his contributions to rock history.

1.) "Dude... I was so baked last night... those edibles didn't help either. I feel all dizzy and can't form thoughts"
"Ahhh, no worries bro, you're just having a green day"
2.) "Hey, did you ever see Green Day back in the day?"
"Nah man, I don't do pop-punk, I vastly prefer The Misfits, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, yknow...?"
