chatnoir Posted February 28, 2009 Posted February 28, 2009 OKAYNow.Here's my Tre story.It's long, because I ramble. I love that story. The 14-year-old. The "sexiness and money-cologne" (you left that out!), The deer caught in headlights, and my favourite part - The staring contest. Yay!
The Disappearing Boy Posted February 28, 2009 Posted February 28, 2009 Yeah, we're not an 'elitist shitheap' as someone called us lol I don't have a problem w/ anyone posting here. but it's nice for people who are older and have memories from WAY back then to have a place to come and have a geek out yeah, its good to see them too on a slightly related topic i saw this video where they get people to act out the song on stage.Ok, so my Foxboro Hot Tubs Long Beach experience:thanks for that, man. i loved reading all those foxboro stories. they sound awesome

Starbug Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 Ok, so my Foxboro Hot Tubs Long Beach experience:Dude, that was BEAUTIFUL! I really enjoyed reading that, you're so lucky! lol Getting to hug and be near Billie Joe so much must've been surreal. I can see how it was worth all the money and the time and the miles. Seeing them was a beautiful experience, and you got to see them TWICE Good on you :wink:I'm so glad they're good to their fans. I've never read of an encounter where they were assholes to somebody, and that's great. I love how BJ puts it in BIAB, how he is Green Day, and when people talk to him only because he's in Green Day, he doesn't mind. Because that's who he is. And he's right, and that's lucky for us that he feels that way. I can't wait to meet him, and I will one day, no doubt
Nimrod99 Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 Wow a bit to catch up on. As for Angus, I heard about it because of Green Day. I wanted to watch it anyway because it seemed like it would be an interesting movie (I'm all about rooting for the underdog). As for the story about meeting the band (and playing on BIAB), that's pretty cool.And I agree with you Starbug. Green Day is really good to their fans. I really like that they don't act like pompus asses because they're famous. I too would like to meet them one day.
Starbug Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 I love that story. The 14-year-old. The "sexiness and money-cologne" (you left that out!), The deer caught in headlights, and my favourite part - The staring contest. Yay!Yeah, the staring contest was pretty suuuhweet. And yeah, he smelled like money That cologne smelled so good, it was probably fairy sweat or something, and I'm sure that shit ain't cheap Wow a bit to catch up on.

I loved the movie, I haven't seen it in yeeears, makes me wanna see it again. And I think they were trying to win GD tickets from a radio station, if I remember correctly? They had to call in when they heard that GD song, so yeah, they were kinda 'in' it lol
The Disappearing Boy Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 My pleasure dude.I hadn't seen that video before, cheers for posting that. Great song too. I wouldn't ming having a go at that for one of their songs!im interested in what happened on the day of the bullet in a bible concert, do you have any stories of that? like why/how they chose to film you? etc.in fact i remember seeing a video about that on youtube, either from you, or from one of the people you were with or something.

They had to call in when they heard that GD song, so yeah, they were kinda 'in' it lolYeah, I thought it was a good movie too. I also identified with the kid, I'm a heftier person (have been all my life). You are correct, they were trying to win tickets from a radio station when they heard a GD song. That jock kid character pissed me off though. I wanted to knock the shit out of him. Kind of reminded me of how things were when I was in junior high school.

Naked and Famous Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 Wow that was a lot to catch up onI'll just *hug you all* in response to most of itgreendaytone ~ I don't think I've said hi to you yet...So hi!You were pretty much the only one on BIAB that stuck out to me. And made me lmao. Rock on!!Are you seriously 27?!?I love the "meeting" stories so much ~ Very cool!!I'll share mine soon, but they were from quite a few years ago so I don't remember tooo many details lolWent BOP hunting today Didn't find any actual magazines, but I did find some cool shit; Unfortunately, my camera batteries are dead, so sharing will have to wait til later lol
goodday Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 Pretty cool stories guys, it was nice to read them! Im a veteran too, I got into them since that the first album came out and love these guys a lot! I don't have stories cause they came here to a show just once and at that point I was very away from the city where they played (Brazil is hugeeee) and couldn't be there but since I joined GDC years ago I have been sharing a lot about their shows with some friends here :wink: Its very exciting too!!
sharon mitchell Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 I see Tony is getting his own little fan club going here! Can I make a claim to be be a veteran fan of his as well? I met him and his brother Karl for the first time on November 6th, 2005, just before BIAB came out.
Hermione Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 There's some great stories in here, very enjoyable. I think I'll call myself a future veteran of Green Day. on a slightly related topic i saw this video where they get people to act out the song on stage.Oh how wonderful, never seen that one before.
