Not exactly.

I had already been forced to play the bass in our school jazz band and I wasn't really into it because...well. Jazz. C'mon. It wasn't exactly my cup o' diet coke.

But then I thought: heeeeyyy, I can play GREEN DAY! And I started looking up tabs and schtuff. And then learned Longview by heart. And I feel awesome.

Not really, I was learning to play guitar before I got interested in GD's stuff, but when did I played alot of their songs, cause their stuff is good for beginners since they're so simple.

Not really... I mean, I was already playing the piano from an early age, then I got into Green Day after that, then I took up the guitar, but they didn't influcence me. Not really. Now they do, though. I really, REALLY want to be in a band. I've already written like 5 songs. With music. With my brother on the drums and no bass. :lol:

Yes. I was quite interested in drumming anyway, but then I saw Tre and I was like "Right! Saving up for a kit."

Yeah, when I started listening to Green Day I wanted to (eventually) be able to play like Billie Joe. I can also play a little bit of bass guitar, and drums. :D

Sort of, yeah. I'd beemn wanting to learn for awhile, and listening to them sorta kicked me in the ass to do it. Now I have Lessons every Monday at 4:30 with this hot guy named Donnie. Nifty, huh? :cool:

Yep. I'd always kinda wanted to learn to play guitar, but when I got into Green Day I really really wanted to learn.

No, the Beatles actually made me decide to buy a guitar 10 years ago, but Green Day, however, has influenced me to try different sounds and rhythms.

Yes :) I'm learning how to play electric guitarfor about 8 months! I always wanted to learn because I love the sound of it but Green Day was definately one of the reasons why I start playing the Guitar! :D

I want to be in the music industry and in my opinion an artist shoud play at least one instrument and write their own songs! U know be versatile!

I already play the piano! But the guitar was that instrument that always attract my atention! and now I'm finally learning! :D

Yeah, but I was unsure on what I wanted to learn. At first I wanted to play guitar, then drums. Then one day, I found an amp in the garage, and I asked my dad about it. It turns out that he used to play the bass! He still has it to, but now it is mine. Kinda. I am taking lessons. I love my Bass.

They didn't inspire me to play, Nirvana has those honors, but they definitely got me to continue playing after deciding not to.
