Green Day not tired of American Idiot

Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong tells Billboard.com he is still proud of 'American Idiot' and that about fifteen new songs are in progress.

And talking of Green Day, frontman Billie Joe Armstrong has told Billboard.com that he's not remotely sick of multi million selling album 'American Idiot'. When asked if he was tiring of the LP, he answered: "No. I was just listening to the record today, to tell you the truth [laughs]. I'm really proud of this record. Because there's so much content in it, I think that's why it still has legs."

He also talked about the possibility of live performances further afield once the band finishes its current tour of North America: "I'd love to play Russia and Cuba - places rock shows don't normally go. After that, we'll end up sitting around and chatting about what is going to be the next album."

He went on to say that there are about fifteen new songs in the works at the moment. On the new tracks, he said "Right now, it's that no-pressure/fun stage of just getting on a four-track and coming up with some goofy stuff."
