Green Day is a popular American rock band. The band has produced 10 full length recordings since their formation in 1989.
Information about tour dates and band history can be found on their official website at http://greenday.com/
Additional band info is available on their myspace profile at http://myspace.com/greenday. Music samples and band blogs can be found on their myspace profile as well.
http://www.greendayauthority.com/ is another official Green Day website, which includes more commercial information and has an online merchandise store.
I was first introduced to Green Day in 1994 when I heard their Dookie album. Although Green Day has always been, and continues to be, an alternative rock band, their style has changed over the past 17 years. Despite the changes in style, I still appreciate and enjoy the music produced by Green Day. My interactions with Green Day are not limited to only their recorded art, as I have seen them perform live more than once. Generally, I will attend such concerts with friends of mine who appreciate the same music. The music of Green Day often touches on real world issues, such as politics. The meanings in the songs have not really affected me or my personality.
I chose Green Day as the topic for this blog because they are a popular element of American pop culture that I enjoy and would like to learn more about during the project.

Among all the rock bands that perform today Green Day remains one of the best all time bands of my generation. Most Rock bands produce a few albums, make some money, and go their separate ways. Green Day on the other hand has remained a popular band for many years. Their music was more than just a hit, for years Green Day singles were at the top of the charts.
I think it is great that you are an avid fan and want to learn more about the band and their music. I feel that Green Day is a very good topic to write about considering they continue to make great music after all these years.
