How long have you been a Green Day fan? As a kid I was in love with Dookie
and International Superhits. I've been a fan for a long time... I can't
really remember that definitive moment when I "crossed over" to fandom. I
remember my first Green Day song ever was "Dominated Love Slave." It was on
a mixed CD. I was 10.

What song do you like best? Why? Oh, geez. What a hard question! I seem
to have a new favorite song every week. At the moment I think my favorite
song would have to be Homecoming/The Death of St. Jimmy. Why you ask? I
can't put my finger on it... it's just one of those songs that draws you in
and hooks you, and keeps you hooked.

What is Green Day's best album? Ummm... wow. Best album? They're all so
different and the best for different reasons. I don't think I can pick just
one.

What is the craziest thing you'd do to meet Green Day? *evil smile* If I
told you, I'd have to kill you. ;)

What Green Day tour(s) have you gone to? Back in August 2005 I saw Green Day
in North Carolina on the American Idiot Tour. Frankly, I'm still in awe.
Twas fucking brilliant.

Who is your favorite member? Why? When I first started liking Green Day my
favorite was Billie Joe. Mostly because he plays guitar and sings and I
play guitar and sing. At that time I wasn't really thinking the band was
attractive because I still thought boys were icky. But... I grew up. And
realized that these boys were more than my loud fuck the system musician
friends, by golly they were attractive! So then I began to like Mike. At
the time I thought he was gorgeous and the sensitive one and everything was
great. UNTIL I realized... Tre Cool, was my soul mate. Hahaha okay no
seriously... My favorite member of the moment is Tre. He's as ADD and crazy
as I am.

If Billie Joe was to give you advice on anything, what would you want him to
tell you? I'd want him to tell me how he did it. How he had the balls
enough to drop everything and put so much faith into the band. I'd like to
know his secret.

Finally, describe Green Day with ONE word.
stupefying.
1. to dull the sense or faculties of. (daze)
2. to amaze; astonish.
