Teenagers with birthdays after March 21st everywhere are going to have an awkward time asking their parents for this b-day gift.

Green Day's new album title has a dirty four letter word in it, so we wouldn't DARE write it here, but it looks something like this…

"Awesome As F#*!"

The band's live CD/DVD combo album will be released on March 22, and will feature performances from their "21st Century Breakdown" tour.

Still curious to see the full, naughty, totally inappropriate, NSFW album title? Thrillseekers can check it out after the jump!

His first one did alright for itself, so why the hell not?!

Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong has confessed to sources that he is eager to get to work on a new Broadway musical, following the success of his first show, American Idiot. He explained that he's really "interested" in writing songs "specifically for a show" and feels his talent is best suited for this kind of work. He added:

"The kind of music that I like is very immediate and very catchy, and you identify with it quickly, and I try to write that way. And in musical theatre it's the same thing - you identify with the songs immediately. The good ones anyway."

Very true! Look at what a thespian he's become!

Move over, Stephen Sondheim! Your competition has arrived!

Starting January 1, lots of Green Day fans will have the time of their life!

Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong was originally slated to take over the role of St. Jimmy in Broadway's American Idiot for eight performances, but now he'll return to his role for 50 performances in 2011!

For those of you who need to get your Billie Joe fix, here are the dates on which you'll be able to see him in the play:

* January 1 - January 9
* January 18 - January 30
* February 10 - February 27

If his performance back in September is any indicator, we're thinking it's going to be a great run for the Green Day frontman!

Are U excited for more opportunities to see Billie Joe on Broadway?

And we think, WE THINK, he might have had the time of his life!

It might be hard to pick him out from the lineup of wannabes on stage, but we'll give you a hint - he's the one who sounds like your CDs!

If this doesn't boost ticket sales, nothing will. (To which then they should consider canning the thing!)

Due to one of the cast members taking a leave to deal with a family matter, Billie Joe Armstrong was asked to step in and understudy for a pivotal role in his band's rock opera, American Idiot.

The Green Day frontman is slated to be taking over the role of St. Jimmy for eight performances, starting this Tuesday.

What a marketing ploy! They really should of thought of doing this sooner!

Hey New Yorkers - think any of U will throw down to see Billie Joe in his own musical?
