This fact has been revealed that Green days band members are almost drunk on the stage, which is the foremost reason behind the too much success of their band in life performances
Billie Joe Armstrong is the lead singer and guitarist of the punk rock band, formed in 1987, and they believed that there stage presence has developed due to their inhibitions being loosened.
Billie Joe is of the view that they have been providing quality since last few years despite the fact that they are engaged in performing live since last 20 years. They thought that they really worth the fans money now in real sense.
To ensure a good show he usually has a few alcoholic beverages with drummer Tré Cool and bassist Mike Dirnt before live performances, he says
"Around Insomniac we became a sh**ter live band. We began playing arenas; we didn’t really know how to play them that well and at the same time we started becoming a lot more introverted."
"Then we started drinking a lot more. Being drunk on stage, your inhibitions are gone. Most of the stuff we’ve come up with, like bringing someone up to sing with us or running around in drag, that's all from being liquored-up," he told Q magazine.
Recent performances by the Green Days band have been notorious for their on-stage antics and a human-sized drunk pink rabbit has even made an appearance. Billie Joe went on to describe what exactly constitutes a suitable pre-performance drink in order to achieve the required mayhem.
"There was a time when I was up to a six-pack of beer and maybe a couple of shots – that’s when you’re really cooking in the middle of the tour. You want enough to just get real loose," he confirmed.
