Green Day is a punk rock band that got their start in the early 90s. I’ve been a fan of them for 30 years and have seen them perform a few times. Last year, a film about their exploits premiered at TIFF. “Nimrods” is a coming-of-age film centering on three high school friends who set out on a wild road trip under the mistaken assumption that their fledgling band has been booked to open for Green Day on New Year’s Eve. The story is based on Green Day’s real-life adventures while living in a van before the success of Dookie, their 1994 Grammy-winning major label debut album that has since been certified as double-diamond. Here is the first teaser trailer for “Nimrods”
