Tre Cool
Tre Cool, born Frank Edwin Wright III, grew up in the Mendocino mountains, where his
father, a Vietnam vet, raised Tre and his two siblings. Tre's dad built many of the
houses in that area, including that of Lawrance Livermore, Tre's nearest neighbor and
the founder of Green Day's original label, Lookout! Records. At the age of 12, Tre
joined Livermore's pop-punk band, the Lookouts, recorded an album, and began
gigging regularily at Gilman Street (Berkeley's punk club). When John Kiffmeyer, the
drummer on Green Day's debut 39/Smooth, left the band for college, Tre, with
Livermore's blessing, hopped aboard. Tre married his girlfriend Lisea Lyons in March
of 1995, they have a daughter together named Ramona. They have since seperated
but are apparently still on good terms.
