What Is Going On In America Is Extreme. The Youth Cult, They Worship Youth So Much It's Almost Paranoid. And La Is The Mecca Of It All; They're Taking It To The Hilt.

The Record [american Idiot ] Felt Special To Us, When We Recorded It, With All Of The Artwork And The Concept Behind It And It Being A Rock Opera, But We Didn't Really Know Where It Was Going To Go.

That's Where All Good Music Comes From, I Think - Anything That's Likely To Have An Impact On Pop Culture Comes From A Point Where There's No Expectation Of It Becoming Anything Other Than Personal.

We've Been A Band For 16 Years. This Is What You Dream About.
