Jamie311 Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 In 1994 I heard Longview on MTV...or maybe on the radio and that was all she wrote. End of story, a full on super fan was born
Met Fan Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 Puff Daddy got me into Green Day.He was the reason why I got the Godzilla soundtrack in 1998 which was the first time I "liked" Green Day from Brain Stew.I knew them from before since When I come Around video first aired on MTV.
flake Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 I was on maternity leave in 1994. back then there were only around two music channels. Basketcase was played a lot on MTV (when it used to play music videos!). My hubby went out and bought Dookie and we've liked them ever since.
BillieJoeBabyGirl Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 They've been part of my life since ever!My parents listened to them alot when I was younger. So I've always been a huge fan of Green Day! I remember when I was a little girl I was(and I'm still) in love with Billie! I know that I started lovin him because of his voice then in my 9/10 years old I started seeing more than just his voice!Billie's the whole package!!! lol lol
greenday_punk1039 Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 2 of my friends did...i think it was ISH....
Universal_Girl1 Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Me well the TV i watched the Basket case video and loved it but they were just like the type of band i liked but hadnt heard enough of to really like them. But yea liked them since basket caseYou have to have someone whos 18 with you to bu a cd with parental warnign label on it how gay we can buy it anyage and dont even get told or warned or asked for ageOh I cleary mentioned K-mart cause that's the only place that has those kinds of restrictions. I've gone to other musics stores and bought parental advisory albums but it seems that at K-mart they don't let you buy it (at least in my town).
GeekStinkBreath54 Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Oops sry, Andres said he wanted less crappy threads so I wanted to make one actually related to GD. At first I didn't like GD because they were in a battle of the bands thing on the radio against my fav band at the time. Well GD won by a lot so I held a grudge against them for a while. Finally I realized I liked their music, and, well, I became OBSESSED!!! thanks to me! lol. i showed her the AI video and she was like eww. i am gonna have nightmares about that. so it took her a while to get into them. now she is obsessed.
rockon99 Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 when i got international superhits for my birthday last year
Evil Lord Zargon IV Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Well... Video Hits did, kinda. Twas the first place I ever saw/heard American Idiot. Also the radio. Round about Blvd. of Broken Dreams time, I used to stay up till 10PM to hear it at #1. Then a couple of weeks later, they were interviewing Tre for 10 minutes every week, then playing Holiday. That was what REALLY got me into Green Day.-"So Tre, is that your real name, or did you have to change it because Colin [i forgot] was too geeky?"-"Tre Wright actually, but only doctors and cops call me that."I loved that week.

spark in the night Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 nobody did. I found them on my own....and it was Boulevard of Broken Dreams but then I later realized my dad had a dookie cd in his old cd drawer in the basement. why couldn't I have discovered this before!
SickOfMe Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 nice^my dad kinda introduce me after I saw the video for waiting.
Lucho Posted March 10, 2006 Posted March 10, 2006 It was 2 years ago when I bought AI for my little brother´s birthday. We, eventually, bought their other albums. I liked most of their songs but some of them lost their meaning because I over heard them. Jajaja but I just continue listening to them anyway
Pantalamon Posted March 10, 2006 Posted March 10, 2006 MTV Europe Awards. 11th December 2005, i saw GREEN DAY receiving awards and remeber how Billie started sing the Ole Ole Ole Ole Ole Ole thing?????? right then i was like WOOOOOOWWWWWWWW!!!!!! they ROOOOOOOOOOCK man!!!!!!!!i mean before that i knew there is a band called Green Day and hav heard about American Idior album, but i never knew that Green Day is Green Day, if u no wat i mean and i never no tat American Idiot is Green Day's album. At the end of the awards show,Green Day sang Holiday and i went WILD!!!!!!i hav heard most of their American Idiot songs before that. Anyway the next day i went to Green Day Official Website and watched all the Music Videos and since then i have been a fan of GREEN DAY-the coolest, hottest, sexest band EVA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LOVE GREEN DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!sorry i sort of got carried away a bit.....still, do u get it?I LOVE GREEN DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Billie Joe Armstrong......
celeryeater Posted March 10, 2006 Posted March 10, 2006 Well, I can remeber hearing Good Riddance ages ago, which I really liked, and I wanted to find out who made it. When I heard AI I also loved that, and when I discoverd it was the same band I was really intrigued and now I'm a fully fledged Green day lover!My sister bought AI and I nicked it off her, then started buying my own GD Cd's.
Pepsi and Coke Posted March 10, 2006 Posted March 10, 2006 I cant remember if i've posted in this thread before (being so many of this thread) but I think it was mainly myself. I listened to warning and minority and liked them. Then when american idiot came out i was doing some green day research and found out they were by the same artist. So yeah.
dammit Posted March 10, 2006 Posted March 10, 2006 I bought this History of Rock'n'Roll dvd box, and there was all these video clips from different bands. One of them happened to be GD's Basket case, and I fell in love with it. That was only two years ago... :whistling: After that I downloaded few songs, and they were all great.
iluvgdlikecrazy Posted March 10, 2006 Posted March 10, 2006 i knew about gd 4 a while, but i never was a fan and i never hated them. then the miraculous day came when i herd holiday on the radio and i was like "...that...was the best song....I HAVE EVER HERD!!!!" so i burned my friends american idiot cd, then i went 2 a concert (i didnt no ne of the old songs so it was kinda weird), and after hearing their old stuff i decided 2 get their old songs...after many weeks of buying and burning, i got every single song and listened to them every single day (i still do)so ya....theres sum more stuff but i dont wanna make this 2 long, im such a lazy bum
greenday rocks!!! Posted March 10, 2006 Posted March 10, 2006 I heard american idiot and WMUWSE and then I thougt whoo they rock!!! And when I got the cd american idiot and the other albums I reconigzed basket case I thought :I heard that song before hehe
Jimmy's_Rebel Posted March 10, 2006 Posted March 10, 2006 Myself. I'm quite proud of that. I spent my day off the week before christmas bingeing on the music channels and spotted them and was mildly interested, didn't pay much attention. Then as the week went on got more and more interested. Bought American Idiot two days after Christmas and never looked back.....
Chrismond Posted March 10, 2006 Posted March 10, 2006 A.I. video in the summer of '04.Yah same...and when my frineds started listening to them a lot and covered a lot of their songs. The best thing thats happened to me
