Green Day have picked up a Grammy Award for Best Rock Album at the 2010 Grammys. Their 2009 rock opera album, '21st Century Breakdown' -- the first Green Day album to be produced by Butch Vig -- garnered two politically-driven singles, 'Know Your Enemy' and '21 Guns.' The latter song is title track off their Broadway debut '21 Guns' (which includes songs mostly from Green Day's 2004 'American Idiot') and was performed with the Broadway cast at tonight's Grammy Awards. After thanking everyone, Billy Joe Armstrong adds, "and now I'm going to go have shots with Kings of Leon."
