hi.

They're recording 21 guns with the cast of the musical. Hardly a studio album, don't you think? Plus, they're always recording something or other when they have time.

[Metanoia]

JohnGallagherJr just twittered this: "Going into the studio today to record a track with the cast of American Idiot and Green Day themselves!"

"GREEN DAY TO RECORD NEW VERSION OF HIT SINGLE “21 GUNS” WITH CAST OF HIT MUSICAL AMERICAN IDIOT

DIGITAL DOWNLOAD WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE IN LATE NOVEMBER

DIGITAL SINGLE FOR “21 GUNS” ALBUM VERSION CERTIFIED PLATINUM

November 19, 2009— Burbank, CA — Multi-platinum rock band Green Day are in the studio this week recording a new version of their hit single “21 Guns” with the cast of American Idiot — the critically acclaimed stage version of the band’s 2004 album that has been playing at Berkeley Rep since early September. The band’s singer and guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong is producing the track, which will impact radio at the end of November and be made available for purchase through all digital retailers.

Green Day, which also includes bassist Mike Dirnt and drummer Tre Cool, are shooting a video for “21 Guns” with the American Idiot cast. American Idiot premiered at Berkeley Rep on September 4th and was extended through to November 15th due to record-breaking sales and unprecedented demand for seats. Called “the hottest fall theatre ticket,” by the San Jose Mercury News, American Idiot brought Green Day’s blockbuster album to life in a show staged by Tony Award-winning director Michael Mayer (Spring Awakening), who collaborated with Armstrong on the story.

“21 Guns” is the second single from Green Day’s gold album 21st Century Breakdown. The digital version of the track has gone platinum, selling more than one million downloads, while the video won three 2009 MTV Video Music Awards in September, including “Best Rock Video.” The band recently completed a sold out European Tour and will next appear on the American Music Awards on November 22nd, followed by NBC’s New Year’s Eve with Carson Daly on December 31st.

That is so awsome, Im still hoping for a possible live performance of this at the upcoming American Music Awards too.

[Laura!]

I can't wait for this to become available! I can't wait to hear it.

I wonder if it's Billie, Mike and Tre playing their instruments and the cast singing or if Billie will sing part of it and the cast the other part.

And I wonder what the video is going to be like.

This is exciting!

[Jacob.]

Can anyone tell me how to change the title of this thread??
