Green Day Celebrate ‘Dookie’ Going Double-Diamond: ‘Thank You To Everyone Who Has Loved This Album’
Green Day celebrated the RIAA double-diamond certification of their 1994 breakthrough debut major label album 'Dookie' for U.S. sales of 20+ million.
Tré Cool, Billie Joe Armstrong, and Mike Dirnt of Green Day attend the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards at Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California on April 01, 2024. With that honorific, the group’s major label became just the 13th album ever to be RIAA certified for sales of more than 20 million units in the U.S., joining such iconic LPs as Michael Jackson’s Thriller, AC/DC’s Back in Black, Led Zeppelin IV, The Beatles, Pink Floyd’s The Wall and Shania Twain’s Come On Over, among others. In an Instagram post earlier this week, singer Billie Joe Armstrong, bassist Mike Dirnt and drummer Tré Cool proudly showed off their Diamond awards backstage at Sofi and thanked their die-hards for helping them make history.
