Then \u003ci\u003eAmerican Idiot\u003c\/i\u003e debuted at #1 on the Billboard charts, stayed on the charts for nearly 18 months, and went on to sell more than four million records and to win the Grammy for Record of the Year for \"Boulevard of Broken Dreams.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Combining unique access to Green Day with a seasoned journalists nose for a great story, Marc Spitz gives the complete account of the band, from their earliest days to their most recent explosion of popularity and critical acclaim. Foremost, \u003ci\u003eNobody Likes You\u003c\/i\u003e is a story of friendship and the transporting power of playing very loud music. It is the story of how high school dropout Billie Joe Armstrong came to write song lyrics that inflamed the political conscience of fans in a way that two Yale graduates couldn't. Green Days story -- from rise, to fall, to rise again -- has never been fully told.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMarc Spitz\u003c\/b\u003e has written and produced numerous novels, plays, and biographies, including \u003ci\u003eWe Got the Neutron Bomb: The Untold Story of LA Punk\u003c\/i\u003e (with Brendan Mullen), \u003ci\u003eHow Soon Is Never: A Novel, Bowie: A Biography, and Jagger: Rebel, Rock Star, Rambler, Rogue\u003c\/i\u003e.
