Green Day's Bille Joe Armstrong To Write New Musical?

January 11, 2011
Green Day's Bille Joe Armstrong To Write New Musical?Green Day's Bille Joe Armstrong has revealed plans to write a new musical.

The frontman, who composed and wrote the Broadway musical 'American Idiot', says he hopes to write another.

"I think I’d be interested in the future of really getting into writing specifically for a show, that’s something I’d really love to do," Armstrong told The New York Times.

He added: "The kind of music that I like is very immediate and very catchy, and you identify with it quickly, and I try to write that way. And in musical theatre it’s the same thing - you identify with the songs immediately, the good ones anyway."

Meanwhile, Green Day are expected to release a new live album in March, it has emerged.
