Johannamunter Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 I converted two of my best friends and also another close friend of mine who originally listen to hip hop and rnb but I showed her Bullet in a bible and now she is going with me to the concert in Sweden
NaturalxDisaster Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 I've converted my cousin and now she loves them just like me Well, and my two little sisters, because we live listeing to the same music, so they love GD and other bands that I like too. And they convert their friends too
Juju Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 sadly, no. most of my friends don't like Green Day and no amount of convincing/incentive/torture will make any difference.i do have one friend that likes them. but she did that on her own. however, my best friend told me that every time she hears GD on the radio, she smiles 'cause it reminds her of me
Smoothed Out Posted February 16, 2010 Author Posted February 16, 2010 That´s a cool topic.Thank you (I have nothing better to do )
Izzard Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 hmmm, yeah, that was me im a way i kinda dont want to convert TOO many people... ... im a bit possesive when it comes to GD Same here! I like it when only I like a certain type of music! i don`t think I could handle my friends liking Green Day as much as me. There is this gilr at my school who wants to be friends with me cause she likes them a lot as well and people keep telling her that we would get a long, and I`m like doubt it! lol...
Little Girl Little One Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 For a noobie fan (I've always kind of liked them, but I've only been a FAN since I saw them this summer), I've done a pretty decent job converting people! I invited four friends to that concert with me, only one of which was already a fan, and by the end, the rest of us were sucked in! I turned my mom as well, not that it was that difficult. My American Idiot CD is technically hers lol. She listened to a whole Green Day CD before I did. :/ I've also made us an enemy though. My brother, who already shunned practically every form of punk music, now hates Green Day with a passion.
Sister of Grace Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 My mate from uni, he only knew a few songs, so i snuck the rest of the albums onto his laptop when he wasnt looking, btu yeah he actually likes them now, and is on about buying a ticket so he can see them at manchesterhaha I laughed so bad when you told me this a few days ago When I went to see Green Day in Stockholm in October my mum joined, just because she wanted to see why I am so overly obsessed with Green Day and besides, it was her bday so I bought her the ticket as a present and now when they announced another show in Gothenburg this summer she called me and said she really wanted to go see them again!
ShadowWolf Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 I was able to get my father's girlfriend's kids, who're both about 10-ish years old, to be addicted to Green Day.
94th nimrod. Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 I use to play Green Day when I got visit or something.. And people who knows me, use to say that the only thing that I'm talking about is Green Day... but that's not quite true.. anyway... A bunch of my friends that never would have been listening to them.. does it now... :whistling: I've tried to convince my mother that GD is the best band ever, but she's just like: "I can't understand why you like this.. this is crap..." untill I played 21 guns, Wake me up when September ends, and thoose songs, and she said: "Well, that's not really bad, but it's not my music..." anyway, she's going to Ullevål with me, so it's ok for me
colour_me_stupid_ Posted February 19, 2010 Posted February 19, 2010 *cough*I am a Green Day convert*cough*Im getting there with my little sister. She knows all their names and I was playing Too Much Too Soon on my phone one day and she liked it
Maddy. Posted February 19, 2010 Posted February 19, 2010 My two sisters, my mom, 6 of my friends, and my guitar teacher likes them too (but I didn't convert him).
Guest Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 i converted my 2 friends who thought KYE is annoying
Hanner Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 my one green day convert moved away only like a month after i converted her . sucks cuz now i cant spaz out about green day with anyone. cept for when i talk to her online.
woahsilence Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 I've converted a few friends before. They don't LOVE them, but they like em. I'm in the middle of converting my little sister now though, she's only 5 so it's kinda hard to really convert her... it's kinda a tradition in my family(kinda!) my older sister converted me by playing Dookie alot, and she doesn't really like them now though.
drumstick Posted February 20, 2010 Posted February 20, 2010 I think my friend is starting to like the old stuff
Billie's__Babe Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 I think I've success fully converted my father
Katarina. Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 No. Nobody I know loves Green Day as much as I do. But on the dark side we have cookies, so it's all good xD
04rebhop Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 I should be taking my friend to Wembley with me if that counts, so i am going to try and convert her. She knows the big songs, like 21 guns, and basket case, but that is it. If she can't come, because of her Mom, then i have to take my Dad with me. There is no hope in converting him. He liked Green Day when Dookie came out and i was a baby, but i think i drove him mad with them.
Last Of The American Girls Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 sadly, no. most of my friends don't like Green Day and no amount of convincing/incentive/torture will make any difference. i do have one friend that likes them. but she did that on her own. however, my best friend told me that every time she hears GD on the radio, she smiles 'cause it reminds her of me lies. you converted me! i remember you were so obsessed with Green Day back in middle school and as a result, you got me hooked. and i'm really glad you did
abhishek Posted March 11, 2010 Posted March 11, 2010 ya i worked really hard and now my friends are fans too
FinkaliciousBillie(: Posted March 11, 2010 Posted March 11, 2010 I converted two of my friends into massive Green Day fans by making them come to the concert with me.
ChelseaWhatsername Posted March 14, 2010 Posted March 14, 2010 I converted my parents, my aunt, a few of my friends... and I think that's it. I guess I converted myself.... I dunno.
_all_is_well_ Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 haha "convert" this makes us sound like a cult!
LadyPeacemaker20 Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 I've converted my parents about. That's about it unfortunately. My boyfriend only likes their old stuff and about 3 songs from their new stuff. And he never listened to them so yeah.. you can't really call that a conversion. -.-
PunkRocks and Coke Posted April 4, 2010 Posted April 4, 2010 Once I got my cousin into green day back in 2006 it seemed like every one in 6th grade loved that band. but now in H school every one says their gay, so out of all the people who once loved them theres only like 3 or 4 of us who still like them, and only 2 of those 3-4 still love the the band and thats taking it back to where it all started w/ me and my cuz,
