JudgesDaughter16 Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 Okay, so I was thinking about this the other day - whenever I'm talking to people about Green Day, there are two things that I almost always mention. 1) I was at Milton Keynes bowl when they filmed Bullet in a Bible (me and 130,000 others haha!) 2) Billie sang to me in Manchester (actually just me for like a second lol) I know they're both daft things, and are basically just little brags, but they are my go-to anecdotes that I mention whenever Green Day gets brought up! Does anyone else have any anecdotes that they regularly mention or find themselves incapable of not bringing up whenever they hear someone discussing Green Day?!

walking_c0ntradicti0n Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 I actually thought this thread was gonna be your favorite story they've told and I was gonna go with the one where billie jumps into a car and fights a dude all while on the phone with Adrienne otherwise I usually just mention i was supposed to see them in 2013 in Wilkes-Barre but it was one of the cancelled shows
ellivas Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 I guess I could brag about how I listened to Dookie 12 times in one day
Chin for a Day Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 I was at the premier of Geezer and when the show started everyone rushed the stage. Hubby pushed people aside so that I could get as close as possible. I was wondering why no one stood less than 5 feet from me.

Montclare Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 At my show at the Aragon last year, the girl they brought up for Longview handed her purse to Billie so that she could take the mic. He then proceeded to go through it while she was singing. Then, when he asked her her name, she said Sara. To which he responded, "Sara? That's a pretty name. That's a pretty, Midwestern name." He sounded like a game show host.

I'm pretty amused to have been really close when Billie made security carry him around the room in Gothenburg (or that they pulled out Paper Lanterns), but sadly my go to anecdote will forever be Glasgow

unextraordinarygirl Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 I like to think that Billie and I had a moment at my concert too. I don't even remember what song they were playing but Billie was on the catwalk singing and he looked down into the crowd. I smiled up at him then continued singing and he made eye contact with me and smiled back. It happened so fast and in reality was so brief that it almost doesn't seem real but it was. Of course in reality he could've been smiling at anyone or anything but he did seem to look at me just then. *sigh* It totally made my night no matter what.

pacejunkie punk Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 I'm sure he embellished it for entertainment value. No guy tells a story about a fight without coming out the clear winner. You just know the other guy is telling this story and saying, "I totally kicked Billie Joe's ass!" 😄
