Green Day fans have been aware of Pinhead Gunpowder from the beginning, but the band still feels like one of punk rock’s best-kept secrets. The band (Billie Joe Armstrong, Jason White, Aaron Cometbus and Bill Schneider) is seeing all of their recorded music getting the reissue treatment from 1-2-3-4-Go! The five phase rollout just rolled into Phase 3, which includes the vinyl reissue of 1997’s fantastic “Goodbye Ellston Avenue” release.
Jason White of Pinhead Gunpowder (and Green Day) joins me to talk about the reissues.
