silviagreen Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 Oh and I forgot to say that on saturday afternoon I saw Billie riding a bike! that was shoking.. He was wearing a black helmet and red sun glasses, I told him that me and my friend came from Italy and he said "Ooh really? I'll come a little bit later!" and then at 3 a.m. on the night he maintained his promise and he came to sign autographs (at that point we were only 10 people waiting for him). I saw Mike and Tre walking the streets, but they were busy with their families, so I just said hello from the distance, and on the night Tre walked next to me and said "Hi! How are you doing?".. So many great memories..
pols4tre Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 This doesn't count as meeting, but a couple of years ago I was on holiday in San Francisco and I saw Billie Joe in his car. He'd stopped at a corner and was on his mobile phone. I was walking past on the opposite side of the road and I spotted his car. Like an idiot I just stopped and stared. I called out "Billie!!" but he drove away! (Not that he could've done anything anyway; he was driving and on his phone!)My mum was like, "Uuum are you ok?" I was like "That was Billie Joe Armstrong!! HOLY SHIT!"But no, I've never met them properly. I'd die a happy lady if I ever did though
Sarahnade. Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 LOL. Your guys's experiences are great to read.

I had a dream last night of meeting Green Day, and I remember in my dream I was like, "I can't wait to post this on GDC!" If I ever met Green Day, I'd totally stay up all night and write out ever single detail, just so I can post it on here, and for future reading
Sarahnade. Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 My dream:Billie pulls me up on stage, and after I was done singing Longview, I would ask him if I could go hug Mike. He'd say yes, so I'd run over and have massive hug sex with Mike. And then I'd have eye contact with Tre and he'd motion for me to come hug him too, and I'd obey. Then I'd go hug the Jasons. And Jeff. I'd hug everyone. And then Billie would tell me to stage-dive, but I'd tell him I was a little nervous. He'd offer to stage-dive with me. So we'll jump in the crowd together, hand-in-hand. And then he'd get back on stage and start playing 'Basket Case.'Oh, and if I could kiss Billie and/or Mike and/or Tre somewhere in there, that would be pretty rad.

minorityxdisturbed Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 My friend was wearing a t-shirt where it was writting Mike Dirnt, he saw it and he gave to her his bass stick. She was fucking happy and crying.And then in minority Billie was in front of me and I threw him a kiss becouse I wanted to show him how great was being that night, so he saw me, smiled me and then he threw me a kiss. I could have died!
Sarahnade. Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 ^Aw, that's adorable! That's a super sweet story. Little moments like that would just blow my mind.
Peter. Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 I just met Billie Joe, Mike, Tré and Jason White outside their hotel in Stockholm. It was awesome, Billie was so cute <3
germangirl94 Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 I just met Billie Joe, Mike, Tré and Jason White outside their hotel in Stockholm. It was awesome, Billie was so cute <3Tell us more about it,please .....
Peter. Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 We talked to their busdriver and he said the band was at a hotel, and the most common hotel artists stay at in Stockholm is Grand Hotel so we went there and waited for a bit, saw tré leave on a bike and shortly after Mike left with his wife and Brixton, then Jason came out on a bike and we talked a bit to him and got an autograph. then we waited for like an hour and then Billie Joe came back from somewhere, so we walked up to him, unfortunately, there were like 20 others there and he was kinda in a rush so we only had the time to get an autograph and a few pics (none with me in ) Then Tré came back, said he didn't sign stuff at the hotel and we begged him but he went in pretty quick.Mike was kinda mad cause when some asked for photos he said "no, not now, family time" but one guy didn't respect it so Mike gave him the middle finger.
Isabel Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 I don't understand why people don't have the basic intuition to realise when it's appropriate to ask them for photos. Screw that guy who pissed off Mike, I hope someone gave him a right kick up the arse.When I saw Billie Joe in Dublin that time, I was absolutely dying to ask him for an autograph and a photo, but he was with Joey and it was clear that he just wanted to go for a stroll around the city. So I didn't even bother asking him, I knew it wasn't right. I was happy enough that he acknowledged me!
-Billiejoezee- Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 If I get pulled up,im bringing a camera up with me.
iLozza! Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 If I get pulled up,im bringing a camera up with me.Why, may I ask? I'd rather just have the memory of it all, because I think that in itself is more priceless than any photo could ever be.
-Billiejoezee- Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 So I can take a quick shot with billie.
iLozza! Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 So I can take a quick shot with billie.I still think the memory of it all would be far more superior than risking breaking your camera just to get a quick picture. If you were backstage, then yeah sure, if you have the chance then why not? But if I was on stage..I just wouldn't bother.
Sarahnade. Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 Good job Mike for flipping that person off. It's alright to ask for a photo, but if they decline like that, respect them. Don't be a douche. Ugh.
Rae'n'shine Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 If I ever saw Mike/ Tre/ Billie walking around on the streets with their kids, I wouldn't go up to them and bug them for autographs. It's rude when you can see they are clearly having family bonding time. I would probably just smile at one of them if they saw me. That alone would make me happy.
