Green Day, emerging from the west coast punk scene in the early 1990s, are hugely popular around the world and have made the rare move from garage punk to universal critical acceptance. Their album American Idiot topped charts all over the globe and the award-winning Broadway show based on it has played to packed houses. Green Day Treasures tells the story of this amazing band through words from long time Green Day expert and journalist Gillian Gaar, photographs from some of rock ’n’ roll’s best photographers and examples of rare facsimile memorabilia.
