How long have you been a Green Day fan?
Since I heard "Basket Case" for the first time.

What song do you like best? Why?
"American Idiot" because lets all face it: the title is true the lyrics are true and its got a bloody good tune and that's everything you need in a good rock song!

What is Green Day's best album?
Insomniac and American Idiot, not to sure why I just really like the songs on American Idiot and Insomniac was the first Green Day album I got.

What is the craziest thing you'd do to meet Green Day?
Probably walk into an airport pretending I've got a gun, seriously you can't do that nowadays!!!! No, I'd probably sleep with my sister or something- now believe you me, you have got to be desperate to do that!

What Green Day tour(s) have you gone to?
Actually, 0, my mum (mom in America) is to scared to let me go (god bless) BUT she promised to buy me tickets for my 16th birthday.

Who is your favorite member? Why?
Tre Cool because the guy's insane!!! Reminds me of myself... Oh, and have you heard his song "Like a Rat Does Cheese???"

If Billie Joe was to give you advice on anything, what would you want him to tell you?
How to write songs because I play the guitar but I don't know how to write songs. Like, should I make up a tune and fit words to it or make up words and fit a tune to it?

Finally, describe Green Day with ONE word.
Super-Cala-Frajalistic-Expialadocious
