Believe it or not ...MTV, my dad and brothers. I remember hearing and seeing my brothers listen to Dookie along with my dad in the car and house when I was like 3. And one day I was watching MTV and cleaning my room and they kept advertising American Idiot and how you can listen to it before it comes out, I listened to 15 seconds of like 4 songs lol and yelled at my parents to get it ..and they did. Then I searched the internet for more of their CDs and I just need 2 more damnit!

i think i was like, 4, when dookie came out and about 7 when nimrod came out and i think i always knew who they were by their music and i never knew them by their name. so, i found out who they were when i saw the video for american idiot and i thought they sounded fimiliar. go figure. :/

actually, my first ex made me listen to warning when it came out, and then we broke up, and my second ex took me to my first GD concert.....and then we broke up......you owuld think id hate GD because of it but i love 'em all the more :)

well,my dad is gong through a tough devorce right now, and his ex-wife(the one he was devorcing) gave me american idiot for my birthday, .i already heard americand idiot, holiday, BOBD, and wake me up, was just getting big. but when i heard jesus of suburbia, i was hypnotized.and amazed at how he hung off of every word that he said, it helped eaze the difficulty of the devorce, and it still is. after that it i was a huge fan.

I had heard BOBD, Holiday and AI on radio.

I heard they were extremely good too, so i picked up their AI CD, got me into music a whole lot more

Best damn 12$ i ever spent. lol

not that anyone cares but i remember being a kid and listening to green day(i always thought the were fat old guys??? idk lol) and i listened to brain stew and good riddance(all i knew) then last year i listened to american idiot and it sorta clicked. i liked it alot so i downloaded the american idiot album wich led to the purchase of all the cds and i was just sucked in. they were the best

American Idiot. *Bursts into tears*

My friend. She loved them, I hated them. Then when the fuss died down I listened and I loved them.

It was either the summer or fall of 1994, and I heard Longview on the radio, so my parents got my a copy of Dookie for christmas.
