711_Disciple Posted August 16, 2010 Posted August 16, 2010 Let's face it: Green Day fans are amazing. But it's not just because we have an unquestionably awesome taste in music, or because we know how to mosh. We're a group of dedicated, passionate individuals who, despite holding completely different personalities and life stories, somehow share common ground through these three guys from California. Ask a true Green Day fan why this band means so much to them, and all too frequently you get this answer: "They changed my life." The songs, performances, and even the quirky personalities of the trio have inspired amazing stories from fans like these, and each of these stories deserves to be told. This is what we're trying to do. ETA: The goal, ultimately, is to create (via self-publishing or some other nifty means of technology), a book and/or e-book that, as GDC member Arian put it, is like a "way cooler PostSecret book", something that can be appreciated by the Green Day fan community. We've set up a website for the purpose: http://lettrs2greenday.webs.com/ And we're also on Facebook! http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=142627675772859
Pedestrian9394 Posted August 16, 2010 Posted August 16, 2010 This is a great idea. I'm so glad you decided to make a thread, and I hope people are willing to contribute. I already sent you my email. =D
Fuzz Posted August 16, 2010 Posted August 16, 2010 Before anyone says this should be in "links" - I think it can stay here since it's a project for Green Day fans to get involved with.

Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love Posted August 16, 2010 Posted August 16, 2010 That's a great idea! I'll probably send something in (: What is going to happen with it? Is it just going to be some sort of a big collaboration of stories, sitting on the internet, that people can read? I know it says "We can't promise where these will go", but I was just curious

I know it says "We can't promise where these will go", but I was just curious To be honest, we've been looking into self-publishing in a book and/or e-book type of thing? To make it artsy and whatnot. I should probably add that to the description, I'll do that now.

Nele Posted August 16, 2010 Posted August 16, 2010 That's an amazing idea. I might send something in. If we write something, should we just acttach a word document to the mail?

Yeah, that would work, or you could copy and paste the text into the body of the e-mail. If there were any problems (i.e. I had a different version of word that didn't convert) I would let you know.

Supermodel*Robot Posted August 17, 2010 Posted August 17, 2010 pretty sweet idea. I might send in a few things I wrote awhile ago.

arian Posted August 17, 2010 Posted August 17, 2010 I really want to send something in. Is there a deadline? I feel like this is a way cooler PostSecret book.

Trina Posted August 17, 2010 Posted August 17, 2010 I'm really really excited for this! What an excellent idea. Can't wait to read everyone's stories. I'll definitely post something in a few days.
Supermodel*Robot Posted August 17, 2010 Posted August 17, 2010 how are you going to decide who's to put in and whos not to put in? I think it's just a website. Everyone can be put in then...
