Childhood & Green Day

 Tre Cool (Frank Edwin Wright III) was born in Frankfurt on December 9th , 1972 and grew up in the Mendocino mountains, where his father, a Vietnam vet, raised Tre and his two siblings. Tre's dad built many of the houses in that area, including that of Lawrance Livermore, Tre's nearest neighbor and the founder of Green Day's original label, Lookout! Records. At the age of 12, Tre joined Livermore's pop-punk band, The Lookouts, recorded an album, and began gigging regularily at Berkeley's punk club. It's kinda funny but Tre had known Green Day for some time from the

Gilman Street scene and he helped out its former drummer with

drum lessons. When John Kiffmeyer (aka Al Sobrante), the drummer

on Green Day's debut 39/Smooth, left the band for college, Billie Joe

and Mike signed up Tre and that was the time when Green Day, as the

 band we know today, was born.

Family

 Tre married his girlfriend Lisea Lyons in March of 1995, they have a

daughter together named Ramona. They have since seperated but

are apparently still on good terms. In March, 2000, Tre married again,

this time to his girlfriend Claudia and now are separated.

They have a son called Frankito. They spent two weeks on their

Honey moon. WOW!! They are now no longer married but still live t

ogether because they want to raise Frankito right. Tre dated Donna C

from the Donna's for a while, but split up after a while. Tre is currently

single.

His dad was a jazz musician and a truck driver for safeway, who passed away of lung cancer, in September 1982, Billie Joe was only 10. His mother was a waitress at a restaurant called Rod's Hickory Pit. As far as he started to talk he also began to sing and got used to go around to hospitals and sing to patients to cheer them up! Billie Joe's first song was Looking For Love. When he was 5, he recorded this song for the locally based Fiat Records. Appearance Billie has green eyes. His hair color is naturally brown, but through the years has gone many coolers ranging from blue to blond! He currently has black hair. He is 5'6. He once had a nose ring,  which he no longer wears as it kept getting caught  on his guitar. He has the names of his family tattooed on his arms, also 5 piercing which can all be found in the ear. Sweet Children At the age of 10, Billie Joe met Mike in the school canteen and they got hooked up on punk rock music.. Soon after they had formed their  first band named Sweet Children. At the age of 11 Billie Joe got his first guitar he called Blue, as a present from his father. At 14 he wrote his first song was a song named Why Do You Want Him? (This can be found on 1039 Smoothed Out Slappy Hours, track 12). This song was about Billie Joe's mum, and how his step dad who he and his fellow siblings hated. It's obvious that Billie Joe's biggest love was music so he dropped out of school to devote to the band. Green Day As soon as band's first drummer Al Sobrante quit the band in a purpose of going to college, was quickly replaced by Tre Cool. Who was at the time playing with the lookouts. Then Sweet Children was renamed Green Day. In a matter of time they were playing around the country, traveling in a bookmobilie driven by Tres's father. In 1997 (Just after the release of Nimrod) Green day played a show at tower records, the show only last 40 minuets. During this time they totally wrecked the place, which cost up to $50,000 the band however were not charged. Billie Joe quoted "You can't start a riot 'cuz you at Tower records. You start a riot coz your at a Green Day concert!" Family Billie Joe's dad died when he was only 11. In 1990 in Minneapolis Billie Joe caught a glimpse of Adrienne for the first time. They got married on July 2, 1994, there service only lasted 5 minuets!! The next day came another little surprise, Adrienne was pregnant!! Now they have 2 kids, I mean, 2 sons, Joseph Marciano who was born on March, 1995 and Jakob Danger, born on September 12, 1998.
