Nimrod99 Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 First song was either Longview or When I Come Around (during the Dookie era). The first video... and I feel bad about this one because I thought it was Hootie and the Blowfish... was When I Come Around. I remember seeing the world premier of Brainstew/Jaded on MTV. Would stay up almost all night just catch Green Day on MTV (when MTV was semi decent). I miss the old Fuse as well. Fuse has gone down the shitter; more tv type shows and less music related stuff. I did manage to catch Loaded: Green Day last week. Was sitting there going "HOLY FUCKBALLS BATMAN! I remember when that video premiered blah blah blah years ago. Man, I'm fucking pathetic." I also still remember the very first song that Green Day played at the very first concert I went to (Insomniac tour in 1995): Stuart and the Avenue.

Kryssi. Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I was a mere 4 or 5 years old in the local music bar in my town, and they had MTV on the tv there, and I remember seeing Basket Case, it was rather awesome.That means it was about... 14 odd years ago.Basket Case was the first song i heard. I heard it on a compilation CD i had when i was living in Hong Kong... pretty much never looked back!Holy shit, you've seen them a load of times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whydoyouwanthim Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Probably something off of Dookie, I know that for sure. My brothers used to listen to it a lot, thus getting me interested into Green Day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonda-gossa Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I have to admit to becoming a huge Green Day fan when American Idiot came out. That was also my first Green Day cd. My first song was Boulevard of Broken Dreams I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starbug Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I think it was When I come around.but back then I had no music knowledge.and no idea who it was.GAH lolThis obnoxious kid at my school kept singing, "Dooooo you have the time? To listen to me whine?" etc etc. I had no idea wtf he was singing about. We went to a Christian school, and were quite sheltered. My biggest obsession up until this point had been New Kids on the Block (wannafightaboudit?) So when we left my dad and were staying w/ my brother, he had MTV (we didn't have it at home), and I cleeeearly remember sitting in his floor, in front of his tv, and the clearest memory of the video I had was of an out of it looking blonde dude w/ electric blue eyes lol (Tre) The Basket Case video. I was like, 'Oooooh, so THAT'S the song..." and the rest was history. I'd never heard or seen anything like them before, and they hooked me. I almost immediately bought 'Dookie' and my life was forever changed.I like this topic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solitary One Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Well, Basket Case, when I first knew who it was, but before that, maybe Good Riddance or Minority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
