American Idiot...The Movie!

A lot of shows these days are turning into films. Chicago, Rent, Rock of Ages, etc. Whats the newest show that will become a movie? American Idiot of course! The show just recently ended their run on Broadway. Now I was always skeptical of this show since it opened. I have seen Green Day perform live before..and they were great. So when I heard they were making a show based on their music I was unsure about it. I mean, if I wanted to hear Green Day songs, why would I want to hear it from anyone other than Green Day? Near the end of their run, I actually wanted to go see it..but since Billie Joe Armstrong went back to the show, it was kind of hard to get tickets (not to mention I'm a broke college student!) So, I never ended up seeing the show.

However, now I will be able to get a chance to see it on the big screen! So at least I'll be able to see it, even if it is in my local movie theatre. Check out this link from broadway.com to read more about it: Billie Joel Armstrong Set To Star In American Idiot Movie; 2013 Released Planned

American Idiot..The Movie?

The Broadway show American Idiot, based on the music by the band Green Day, will perform it's last show April 24th. Now, I never saw this show. Mythought process was that if I was going to pay $120 to hear Green Day songs, I'd rather watch the band. (Which I did see them live, and they were awesome!) But that's just my opinion. However, now with the show going off Broadway, there are talks that American Idiot is in the works for becoming a movie. Check out this article from broadway.com for more info!
