"The Music That Changed My Life" - new interview with Billie Joe in Q magazine.

Our good friend Marie at Green Day Inc in Brazil sent me this transcript of a recent interview with Billie Joe for the 25th anniversary issue of Q Magazine. We find out a bit about what the Green Day front man has been up to this summer, as well as more about his musical influences and tastes, among other things in this interesting interview.

Here's a little snippet that i enjoyed...

Q Magazine:

"Have you ever been star-struck?"

Billie Joe:

"I ran into Joe Strummer at an airport once. His band was playing in Minnesota and I was pushing a baby carriage. I was there to go visit my family. There he was standing right behind me so I turned around. He talked to my son Joey. He was saying, "Oh, my name's Joey too." That was pretty amazing."

It's a good read. Head on over to Green Day Inc to read the rest of the interview.
