What was billy joe Armstrong's childhood?

Answer 1

Billie Joe was the youngest of 6 children in a working-class family from Rodeo. Billie Joe singed a lot as a child and when he was 5, he recorded his first song, Look for Love. When Billie Joe was 7, his cat Zero died in a washing machine. Things started to go wrong and on 15th of September 1682, his father Andy died of a cancer when Billie Joe was just 10. That shocked the whole family and hurt Billie Joe very much. The same year he first met Mike Dirnt (Michael Ryan Pritchard) Later, his mother Ollie fell in love with another man. Billie Joe and his siblings hated him but she married him and Billie Joe was very angry. He wrote his first song, called 'Why do you want Him?' when he was 14. His father's death and his mother's marriage hurt him a lot and soon he loosened at school and started to take drugs. they called Him 'Two Dollar Bill' because he was selling joints that costed 2 dollars.

so yes, that was His childhood.... it was hard.
