Green Day s'associe à U2

Voici ce que l'on peut trouver aujourd'hui sur le site officiel du groupe:

"As promised, we are very proud to unveil the big news we've hinted at. In the coming weeks, we'll be going into the studio with U2 to record a cover of the song "The Saints Are Coming," which was originally recorded by Scottish punk band, The Skids. We were asked by U2 to record the song with them to benefit Music Rising (www.musicrising.org), an organization that replaces instruments musicians lost in Hurricane Katrina's wake. One year later, the devastation is still fresh in our minds, and we'd like to keep it in yours. New Orleans has always been a special city to us, being a hotbed of music and creativity, and it's hard to believe parts of the gulf region still remain devastated. We feel that it's important to continue to raise awareness."

En clair, il est dit que U2 à inviter Green Day a venir enregistrer ave eux la chanson "The Saints Are Coming" dans le but de soutenir une association visant à donner aux musiciens de la Nouvelle-Orléans de nouveaux instruments perdus lors du passage du cyclone Katrina l'année dernière.
