Green Day Breaks for the New Year
Green Day is taking a break from touring and will work on a new album.
The end of the year also means the end of Green Day's American Idiot tour. The band, who had a big year in the music industry, touring stadiums and winning awards, is taking time to regroup and write some new music. Frontman Billie Armstrong says the band will begin talking about a new album this month. On how the band will begin the creative process he said, "We'll start with silence and that's how we'll be able to find the inspiration to find another record."
The American Idiot tour was the number 10th top grossing tour of the year, bringing in $36.5 million. The band recently nabbed six Billboard Music Awards and four Radio Music Awards. Their song "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" was also nominated for a Grammy award for Record of the Year.
