Liquid dookie and Green Day

Green_Day_-_Dookie_coverI’m old. Twenty years ago today, the rock band Green Day released the album, Dookie.

The name of the album is a reference to the band members often suffering from diarrhea, which they referred to as “liquid dookie, “as a result of eating spoiled food while on tour. Initially the band were to name the album Liquid Dookie; however, this was deemed “too gross,” and so they settled on the name Dookie.
