bass boy Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 ya. me and my parents are going. at least they are green day fans.
J'net Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Who knows, she keeps surprising me with getting crazy about GD Sometimes even more than me. Like for example, she hears them on a radio, turns it up very loud (which pisses my dad off btw ) and yells at me to come to hear them. And I'm like 'Cool, but I can hear this song whenever I want to'. She's never been to that kind of show and I'm sure she's no idea what the hell is going on there I teased her the other day that when GD comes to Poland I'll buy her a seat ticket, and she said 'No way, I'd want to be close to Billie Joe!'I think there's a certain age when children/teenagers don't want to show with their parents, when they think it's embarassing for them or whatsoever. It usually changes later. Of course it all depends on relatioship between parents and children Your son is lucky to have such rockin' mom like you Thanks! Our musical connection is one of our strongest bonds and probably one reason we still have such a good, strong relationship. Also, I've always talked to my kids about anything and everything instead of trying to protect them from stuff. I think they feel that as a sign of respect. I know I would have when I was a kid. Anyway, I think you're right about it being a certain age or a stage kids go through when they're not comfortable being seen with their parents.
Modern Zero. Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 My mom and my grandma are going with me and my friend to the show in Chicago xDD They got seats though, while my friend and I got standing.

Krusties Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 i dont think it sounds too bad.i had to go see mcr, twice, with my dad.it was okay.it wasnt as funas i thought it'd be though.:/
Guest ☼ Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 I have been to one concert with my mom. she loves green day as well so she was totally into it. I really enjoyed going with my mom actually.
.:Whatsername:. Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 I wouldn't care who I went to a Green Day concert with. I could go with my mean Nannie, and I'd freaking enjoy it anyway.
Guest Spock Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 A Star Trek fan who wears glasses and has backed out of every potential confrontation. I am in no position to loose anymore 'street-cred'.
Guest TwoDollarMellie Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 I'm sure that even when I'm legal to drink, drive, and everything else that is legal, my mom would still come with me when I go to concerts.It's kinda better than her not giving a shit at all though, so I guess when you look at it that way, there's a positive aspect.Haha my mom's coming with for the show in August because she thinks that I will get trampled over or kidnapped or something.I really don't mind, but I know she wouldn't like it at all (and she doesn't want to go anyway).But oh well, maybe after she sees the show, she'll finally realize why I like GD so much.Hopefully.
Snorri Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 Well, since I've never seen Green Day live, I would do anything to see them so of course I would go there with my mom
HendxDrint Posted June 2, 2009 Posted June 2, 2009 i guess, yeahh! lolwhat matters that i'm seeing them xD i don't care withwho i go to a GD concert!
Miss Hedgie Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 My mum LOVES Green Day, Slipknot and Marilyn Manson.I'd go with mine 'cos we get on so well.We're such on the same page its ridiculous.Do it! I'm sure that even when I'm legal to drink, drive, and everything else that is legal, my mom would still come with me when I go to concerts.It's kinda better than her not giving a shit at all though, so I guess when you look at it that way, there's a positive aspect.Haha my mom's coming with for the show in August because she thinks that I will get trampled over or kidnapped or something.I really don't mind, but I know she wouldn't like it at all (and she doesn't want to go anyway).But oh well, maybe after she sees the show, she'll finally realize why I like GD so much.Hopefully.When I first started going to gigs my mum was like, "we're getting seats i'm not having you crushed." Its nice to know that they love you and would go to things they don't like just to let you experience things non? x
blitzkriegdeb Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 Not with my mother, god no. My father on the other hand, yes.
GreenDayGummyBear Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 im 14, but my mom said she would just drop me off with a friend and pick me up, but then we figured out if ur under 16 u ha to hav a parent or gaurdian. but still, my moms kool. she doesnt hover. shes gonna let me wait in line by myself for 5 hours, and then shes gonna come and when we get let in, shes gonna hand me bout 50-100 dollars, and let me do as i wish. of course, instead of a friend of mine, shes bringing one of her friends so she doesnt hav to deal with it all by herself. but thats gdc is planning meet up parties. friends!!!
LilyMarie Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 Hah, I think this thread is funny. I guess some people have un-fun moms that wouldn't be good to go with...I'd still go with MY mom and she's 54. I've got a 14 year old that is a little pissed off that I'm taking my niece instead of him. I have been dubbed THE COOLEST MOM IN THE UNIVERSE by my kids though.
arzosah30 Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 My mum died not long after Dookie was released, so she didn't even get chance to know who GD were. I know however that she would have loved them had she been around today considering her past music tastes.I suppose I'm saying is to appreciate that you do have some sort of relationship with your mother & not worry about what other people think.. It doesn't matter in the long run..My 8yo daughter was too young in for Sydney in 2005, so this time she really wants to go. Maybe she'll then have the memory of "when Mum took me to MY first GD concert " :wink: For me, that will make this concert all the more special (seeing her reaction to the experience)..
G.L.O.R.I.A. Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 I went to the American Idiot concert with my mom. I was only like 14 at the time so I couldn't go alone... My mom is cool though, she's in a rock band herself. lol. The only part she had trouble with was the fake masturbation... that was hilarious.
Peace and Rainbows Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 I would not go with my mom just because of all the sex jokes( a little ackward) but i am alright with her taking me to any other concert
Haz Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 I'm going to see Green Day with my mum, i don't mind, my mum's cool.
Mrs.Kerplunk Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 not with my mom..god no.she can't stand gd i'd just go with my dad.. he's alright
Nova-Caine Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 I might be taking my mum to the Sheffield gig in October. She's 60, I know she will love it.
tvrman Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 I think my mum is too old :wink: , but I would not mind. On a similar note, I am taking my son and I think he is glad he is going with me - lucky boy has an old rocker for a dad. tvrman
Leisha-LUNA Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 My Mum got into the show in 2005 while they were doing encores cause the security guys outside were nice and let her in while they were waiting, and now for this time around she really wants to come with. I am so taking her with me =D we hang out together all the time though, and share clothes and CDs. she's a cool mum.
