Epiphone_ASG Posted May 29, 2006 Posted May 29, 2006 My parents have had Dookie since it came out and they used to play it all the time when they excercised. That got me into them. They played them on the radio a lot too.
Parley Posted May 29, 2006 Posted May 29, 2006 I can't remember if I already posted in this thread. Anyway, Green Day got me into Green Day. I heard their music and I liked it. That's how it happened. How fascinating.
InternationalSuperhits! Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 i really don't remember if i posted already.what got me into Green Day? in 7th grade, there was this kid that sat in front of me and he wore his Dookie shirt as often as he could. so, i found out about Green Day through a t-shirt, then heard Good Riddance on the radio, then bought Superhits and the rest of the albums.Edit: Yeah, I already posted.
Holden Caulfield Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 whoever decided to play them on y100 way back when.
''deandra56'' Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 Myself.... I watched 'Minority' vid and I just in love with it.... until NOW. Damn I love that vid. N american idiot too...
Pulling Teeth Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 I heard Boulevard of Broken Dreams on the radio, then I gradually downloaded all of American idiot. Then I got Dookie, Nimrod, Insomniac and Warning. I'm only about 4 songs away from having all of Shenanigans, 1039SOSH and Kerplunk.
Liquid-Dookie Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 one of my green day obsessed friends. she used to sing all these green day songs like 24/7 and made me get their cd
cyklone Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 Two of my friends, at different times, in November my one friend, Andrew, would listen to BIAB which always annoy me...because he's afraid of his parents finding out that they swear in it :bored: ...especially since they bought it for him. He's in Grade 5Then my other friend, Mitch, would listen on his PSP some GD songs and when he put on She's A Rebel...The "She's holding my heart like a hand grenade" really got me thinking. and I kept replaying that song to try and figure it out..but I didn't....So I decided to listen to more and more, and then I think it was Basketcase, that got me into GD then on...I've liked them for the least amount of time of my friends and I like them the most.
Nic. Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 My dad found a load of tapes in his car that he'd borrowed of friends about 3 years ago. He was going to give them back but I saw International Superhits. I looked on the back and saw Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life). I knew I'd heard that somewhere before so I kept the tape and listened to it over and over again. I bought Dookie and International Superhits on cd then got A.I when it came out
kerplunked! Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 Uhh...I got myself into Green Day. I saw the AI video and I was instantly hooked.
bRo.kEn_dOlL Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 i saw them once on tv & i thought that they are very good so i started to listen them but most of all was my best friend
One Lite 1 Mind Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 i think maybe my aunt because she loves green day, and by seeing them on TV when i was about 4 years old.
whatserface101 Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 i don't really know what got me into green day...i think they were showing the top ten green day music videos on MTV and i was bored so i watched them and they just hooked me onto green day. i hardly watched tv and the music channels when i was back home (i moved) so when i moved here i started watching alot of tv and music channels and stuff....thats pretty much how i got into them...i had never even heard of the american idiot song until i watched the top ten vids.
Austyn Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 Your daddy did....but not really. I dunno, just hearing Hitchin' A Ride for the first time probably did.
rebbelicis Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 i don't know...just started to listen to them. but i think that was when i heard BOBD or holiday..don't know any more
dufour Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 Uhh...I got myself into Green Day. I saw the AI video and I was instantly hooked.Yes yes..!! Same here.. :wink:
Jaded~80~ Posted May 31, 2006 Posted May 31, 2006 My best friends brother. We used to steal his cd's when we were like 13 and we stole Dookie and Nimrod. He was really "cool" and of course we "want to be just like him!" lol so we listened to them I heard basketcase and longview and i remember saying "hey i know these songs" and then on Nimrod i heard Good riddance (time of your life) and knew that one too. So i was able to put faces to the songs and i was hooked.
IAmARevenant Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 You guys are gonna totally laugh at this, but I acually have never heard of Green Day until American Idiot came out. I saw their video for American Idiot on Fuse and thought they were good. I asked my dad if he knew whothey were and he did. He bought me American Idiot and Dookie and I was instantly a fan. Then later, my dad took me to a Green Day cancert!
Cincinnati Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 years ago when my brother liked green day he listened to basket case...so i heard it and i really liked it...and i started to listen to green day..but then i forgot about it somehow...but a friend a few years later made me listen to american idiot, wake me up... and jesus of suburbia...and i started to remember them and loving them again...so i started to listen to them alot.....and now i'm obsessive...!!
Haushinka.. Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 I started to like them when I was about 10. My brother was all obsessed withthem and my dad also got me sorta into thme too.
