Do any of you have a tough time after going to a Gig?

ABSOLUTELY. EVERYTHING YOU SAID.

I thought it was going to happen right after the show, or 2-3 days after it, but it actually happened like 2 weeks later. The main thing about it was that I didn't know when I was going to see them again. I was thinking that the next time would may be in 5 years time, and that depressed me even more :S

But now I have the hope that they go to Slane... :)

This, this, this. Exactly the same feelings.

It's over 3 weeks sice my gig and, geez, I feel so terrible, I mean I'm very very happy cause of fact I could see them, but I think to myself why only once? And why I have to wait for Slane even if I don't really know if it work out. I want it once again!! So much.

I love them.

its been 8 day since i saw them and im soo sad that its all over with still :( though i still cant believe that i have acutally seen them gives me goosebumps even thinking about it :D

Right now I'm on a complete high because I saw them twice in two days AND got to see the Foxboro Hot Tubs, but I'd say over the next few days I'll start to feel like shite again. :(

It's getting back into a routine that's the worst. You're there going "How could I possibly get back to normal after something like this?"

Same here. I'm still reall, really happy he pulled me up on stage, but I don't feel like I can go back to normality now. I've been sitting in my room away from my flat mates all night, because I can't stand to sit and chat about normal stuff. It doesn't seem important. I just had the best moment of my life, and nothing can ever compare now, it seems meaningless!

I think the best thing to do is be really happy about how good the show was and start building up to the next time they're here: summer festivals 2010!!!

I have a tough time finding my voice after going to a Green Day show!

Oh no, he didn't! Yes, GDC. He did.

I am so so glad you guys think the same as me. Seriously everybody at work thinks I'm obsessed because I went to two dates. (I didn't want to inform them of all the GDC people haha) and I told them how upset I was I didn't get to see the Tubbies and they were like so what?

And I am feeling so low and down now, it's awful. I was at the barrier at Birmingham and it was amazing but due to tiredness/adrenaline or whatever I can even barely remember it =/ which fucking sucks.

I just want to go back to last week where I'd not seen them yet. I was actually happier not seeing them then I am after seeing them, knowing that for 3 hours I was with them and now I have to go back to my shitty job. Hateee it :(

:lol: I am the opposite way! I've only seen GD once, but when I tell people about the other artists I've seen multiple times and I get people making fun of me or whatever, I tell them about how my concert going experiences aren't as impressive as others!

I saw Green Day sunday evening.

I'm still as hyper from it the day before the gig after it.

I feel slightly bummed out now.

But I think of it and I'm like wheeee. :happy:

I went to see Green Day Wednesday, and I thought that once I'd seen them I would be content and just be like, wow, my life is complete!! I've seen Green Day!! Haha. But instead I've just been all sad and depressed that its over. Looking at my same photos over and over again. Just like.. well now what?

But now they've announced they're coming back I'm just on such a high that I know I've not only been about a meter away from Green Day, but I'm going to see them again in half a year, its great! :D

I'm having a weird mix of tiredness/happiness/ and a hint of sadness. I've seen the guys three times in 2 weeks (Dublin, Wembley, Foxboro Hot Tubs!), and each show was better than the next. I have loved Green Day for 11 years now, and after I watch them live, It reminds me how much their music means to me, because no other event or thing or even person gets such a reaction from me as Green Day do.

Its weird, I feel soooo lucky to be able to see them live even once, let alone more, and the fact that I got to see FBHT as well, I just feel really privileged. But now I have to go back to writing my uni essays that are due next week, and its just like.... what's the point! I have just spent all day youtubing Green Day lol I guess it takes a while for me to get them out of my head after seeing them live. Also, I really regret not getting on stage with them at the FBHT gig, but I was just so knackered, and amazed I even got in, I didn't wanna push my luck lol, and Billie Joe was crowd surfing on top of me, so I can't really moan now can I.

I'm also, really bloody tired, and trying to work out if I can actually afford to buy Wembley stadium tickets tomorrow at the idiot club pre-sale....got to be done really ha ha

Finding out a few hours after the gig that they're coming back next year has kept me pretty happy so far :D

Im sorta having trouble coming back down to reality after the Foxies show on sunday, the show beat every gig ive ever been to, and i'm kinda worried it will never be topped. i've got CKY on friday and i'm not looking forward to it as much as i was now. this makes me sound like a spoilt brat :lol: but don't get me wrong here, i know how lucky i was to get to that show on sunday, its just real life seems so much more boring now

I know what you mean I'm still in a dream just constantly thinking about it :lol:, and it will never be topped. But for me it's a good thing. Instead of being desperate to see Green Day do this or that, I'm already totally satisfied. So any time I see Green Day again in the future I can just simply enjoy it and love it. The same goes for any band. The only difference is I'll never ever feel like I'm missing out, because my Foxies dream is already fulfilled.

Well said. I constantly have Foxies songs stuck in my head now. That show has really found a place in my heart thats for sure. Once I get tickets for Green Day's summer shows I'm sure the excitement level will be just as high as it was when they announced their UK tour. Once i've been to the next few gigs i've got planned I think the come down will feel better and it will just be a friggin amazing memory :)

I think so too. It's gonna be nice to see the boys next summer though :D, I think I might be missing them by then.

Green Day have pretty much ruined going to other shows for me (not that that's a bad thing :) ) but I used to die to go to any show and just have a good time. Since the last time I saw GD I just don't care to see other bands like I used to. I went to a show the other night and ended up with bruised ribs and I kept thinking "Is this really worth it?" Nope, it's only worth it for Green Day :rolleyes:

I saw them July 14th and i'm still bummed, but its helping me with my art... so i see it as a good thing

I have to confess that I was feeling just a little deflated, knowing there were no GD gigs to look forward to in the foreseeable future. (I was looking at maybe them headlining some festivals, but that is not really my thing these days, but I was toying with having to go there anyway). I have to confess I feel much perkier now, knowing I have some GD concentrated stuff to look forward to next year.

I just finished 3 paintings of GD stuff...

but the day after the concert i went out and bout 2 gallons of black, red, and white paint and repainted my room.

then i found out have exactly 16 cabinet doors on my walls! enough for each cd case and a mural of each of da boys, so i'm working on those now

My PGS [post gig symdrome] gets quite bad sometimes, depending on the band and how good the show was. When I'm in the actual gig, it's like I'm on drugs, I get so happy being around people who love the smae bands that I do and getting emmersed in it all. Also, I'm addicted to murderous bass [when the bass is up so much that it makes your ribcage, lungs and heart shake, frail/fragile people can die from it, that's why it's called murderous] so it's definately like I'm on drugs.

Definately seeing Green day on Oct 23 was the worst for my PSG. When I left the show, I was so happy that I was grinning inanely at people, telling them I saw Green Day and how my life was now complete. Yeah odd.

For the rest of the night, I didn't sleep or anything, I sat up in bed grinning away, uploading photos and videos to my Facebook and MySpace then writing the huge 9 page essay about the show. The worst thing about it was, I was on my own after I got home, dad went to bed since he was waiting for me to get in and my friend went back to her place. I find it so much harder to come down from a show when I'm on my own since I'm used to having the person I went with wither stay at my place or I stay at theirs.

For a few days after, I was still coming down then the depression hit. I was like "Great, now I'm going to have to wait four years". That's why when the Wembley show was announced, me and my friend planned to buy the first tickets in G.A. I doubt we did though since the page went a bit funny - think everyone had the same idea as us.

After I went to see the Foxies in Phoenix, my family moved and it was a weird sort of feeling. Like, as happy as I was to have gone to see them, there was something about that being like the last fun thing I would do in that city that made me a little big nostalgic. This year, when Green Day came to Phoenix, all my best friends went to the concert but me cuz I'm broke, and it hurt...really bad. But hopefully on the next US leg, I'll get to go.

I'm in full swing of pcd.. but it comes and goes

Seeing the vid from Last night on earth from that night perked me up quite a bit (:
