GREEN DAY TAKE ART ON TOUR
Rockers GREEN DAY are adding a touch of class to their new U.S. tour - they have commissioned an art collection to go on the road with them.
Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day performs on stage at the United Center.
Chicago, Illinois - 13.07.09
The band has teamed up with artist pal Lorgan Hicks to choose paintings which fans and painters have created to accompany each track on their current album 21st Century Breakdown.
The artworks will travel America with Green Day and fans will be able to check them out at shows.
Frontman Billie Joe Armstrong explains, "We are really excited to be touring with this incredible show. Seeing the pieces that our new album has inspired is very exciting.
"Many of the artists Logan has chosen show their work on the street, and we feel a strong connection to that type of creative expression. We think the fans coming out to see us on the road will love it."
