Damn damn damn :lol: I have a lot of GD stuff, too, but not that much. That, again, is impressive :happy:

My most prized GD possession is my Tre Cool autographed 45. I framed it w/ my FHT ticket stub. When I'm not about to go to bed, I'm gonna write my encounter w/ Mr. Tre Cool in here. It's my favorite memory :wub: And I also have a Hard Rock poker chip from the night they played there, w/ them on it. Weird, I know, but I like weird things. If I could afford that hard hat, I'd SOOO buy it lol

Poker chip = Hella cool :happy:

I'm very excited to hear about the Tre encounter!! ~ I've yet to meet him, & I'd so very much love to one day :wub:

I don't drink much, either, but I'd definitely be down for a GD vet party lol

Thank you, that comes from 15 years worth of finding stuff, buying things on ebay, or trading things with other gd fans. The hat sounds very cool indeed, but my broke ass can't afford shit at the moment. I don't drink that much, I'm a lightweight... and I only drink at home. Wouldn't it be cool to get together for a GD concert, then have the party... I go for that. lol.

That would be epicly brilliant :happy: But it'll probably never happen. We all live too far a part to go to the same concert :lol:

I'm probably going to Nashville if they go there again, and/or Houston w/ the best friend. Maybe even DC or VA. Dunno. Depends on where they're going and when.

Indeed :happy: lol

Yea, I'll be giddy to know I can go to one show hehe

ETA : I gotta go to bed! Have a good one, everyone :happy:

See, we gotta make that concert a special occassion... it's the excuse to get up to the area for the party. lol. Who knows what the future will bring. Would be fun though.

Edit: Have a good night Naked and Famous.

Posted

Yeah, I'm out, too... Naked and Famous, what's your name? lol

I'm Angie :happy:

Sleep tight, all my sweet Green Day geeks! :lol:

Posted

Have a good night Angie. I'm off too. Oh, and does anyone remember the stickers that they gave you (I think it was for the Pop Disaster Tour) that had like a skateboard and stuff with Green Day written on it? I have some of those somewhere.

Posted

(I'm such a horrible procrastinator...Damn my ADD :happy: )

It would definitely be fun :D Maybe we could try to figure something out...lol

G'nite Angie (that was one of my friends' names in high school heh) & "Nimrod"

My name's Lia, by the way

I tuned into an American radio station on a world band radio and heard Basket Case. I was totally hooked from that moment on. Do I qualify?

yup.

It's not that hard to cram in 13 years worth of music if you really try.

Shit... I was four when Dookie came out and I can remember being in my old brothers room looking through his baseball cards and Garbage Pail Kids cards while Dookie was playing on his stereo. It don't think it really matters how old you are, just as long as you can remember it.

Nice topic! I was in Hong Kong when Dookie came out and i heard Basket Case on this pirate compilation CD, but i later came to find out it was someone else singing and ripping it off! Never the less, i acquired Dookie on cassette and it was in my walkman for well over a year non stop. We even studied the song 'She' in my English class when we were asked to bring in our music to analyse the lyrics. I remember my teacher being impressed with the imagery.

That was about the time a lot of my friends were already 'moving on' from Green Day, but not me. Since then its just grown and grown. Seeing them live in the Nimrod era was when it really took off for me.

wow, this topic was popular :D

Something I've miss? :huh:

Oh well, I still have the memories from the consert they had in my country in 94/95, cos it was the only time I saw them :/

Sounds like me lol I never 'got over' or 'moved on' from Green Day but people around me did. GD just stuck w/ me, their lyrics always touched me, and I stuck w/ them.

Yeah, I never really moved on either, but I did go through stages between albums where I got into other bands. My candle was going low, but the flame never burned out (ha! that's so cheesy).

ive only been a fan for 3 years, but i would hope that i remain a fan (and a meber here) for a long while to come as yet. :)

Yeah it seems the majority of people have moved on from GD, biggest two reasons here (at my school) 1) Their "Gay" 2) Radio killed Green Day (kinda true)

Its just a shame they didnt "overkill" JOS as much as AI, WMUWSE and BOBD :lol:
