We here at YII HQ have been fans of “Fresh Air” with Terry Gross for many years. But it was a special treat to find the iPod loaded up with an interview of Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong.

The description provided indicated that they would talk about the award-winning album, “American Idiot”‘s transformation into a Broadway musical, which they did, but Terry Gross trained her anthropologist’s mindset on the process of becoming (and enduring as) a band, touring, performing, songwriting, and so much more.

For those who are fans of Green Day, aspiring rock stars, or just people who are particularly interested in the creative process, this is not to be missed. So check out this interview of Billie Joe on NPR’s “Fresh Air.” If you like it, consider supporting your local NPR station that carries “Fresh Air” (assuming you are lucky enough to have one).
