Billie Joe Armstrong (lead guitarist,lead singer) was always involved in music. His father was a jazz musician, and when Billie was 5 he sang while his dad played the drums. He recorded his 1st song called Look for Love when he was 5, and he sang for ill patients at hospitals. His father gave him his first guitar (blue stratocaster) before he died of cancer. Then he wrote his 1st song when he was 14 called Why do you want him, with his band members Mike Dirnt (Bass) and John Kiffner (Drums). Then Billie Droped Out of school a day before his birthday to spend time with his band sweet children. He played gigs at his moms "restaurant" she owned. Then the drummer left the band because he thought it wasn't going anywhere, to go to college. Sucks for him. They picked up another drummer who played for a local band called the lookouts. Then after the album Kerplunk, they got signed by Reprise Records and Released The amazing album Dookie in 1994.
Well Billie Joe Armstrong and Mike Dirnt made up and band and practiced in Billie's basement. The name Green Day came from their love of marijuana. They did not meet Tre Cool until later. They met him at a recording studio.
Well it all started when Billie and Mike were just playing songs together with a drummer that wasn't Tre in highschool. They were 1st called sweet children but then changed it to Green Day. At first they would play in little clubs, but it turned out that one of the clubs that they were playing in had a producer in it. The producer then signed them into a contract to become the Kings of Punk.
billie joe and mike dirnt started out just playing their Guitars in their basement the first song they learned was back in black by ac/dc then late meat tre cool at a recording studio in California
The band was started by Billie Joe Armstrong and Mike Dirnt

Billie Joe and Mike were 15, and Tre wan't in the band yet.
because that's when they where experienced enough and wanted to start a band.
Billie Joe and Mike Dirnt made the band sweet children and then they got someone to drum and they changed the name to green day
