Green Day Nominated For A Meteor Ireland Award

[Isabel]

If Green Day were at the Awards for some crazed reason, I'd do everything in my power to make sure I was there. My sister's boyfriend is a free lance camera man and he always works at things like this. God, they're not even coming over for it and I'm still having fantasies about it

If they were I'd just buy a ticket...

But let's just be straight about it, nobody cares about the meteor awards.

No Paramore this time - we've got it in the bag

[billie-joe-geek72]

I hope they win

[norcalgreendayfan]

Green Day must win this cause well they kick ass

[Rebel07]

if they don't win, then it must be rigged

[punkrockerlori]

if green day doesn't win this then I will disown my irish roots!

[Jessayy]

i have a straaaaaaaange feeling Muse might take this, considering there chart sucess here :down:

edit-- no black eyed peas will

i hate my country

[Jaelle]

i hate my country

It's the same the world over, I'm afraid.

[minorityxdisturbed]

Hope that Green Day wil win, they deserve it!

[†...HAUSHINKA...†]

I think Green Day have a marginally higher fan base here than Muse, so their concerts may have sold out quicker and their album sales may have been higher....ergo, they deserve it more

Yeah, U2 will definitely win best live act. Although, I heard it's all just bright lights and fireworks. :/

I absolutely agree with you!!

[mitzymoo]

No Paramore this time - we've got it in the bag

Yeah no one to cheat against us or in this case bribe the judges

I hope Green Day win but if they dont the meteor's dont really matter all that much but it would be nice to see them win

[Alan86]

As much as id love Green Day to win, fact is that most people here would rather listen to the black eyed peas, i dont understand why.

[Isabel]

But the fact that it's not open for voting, surely the criteria for winning wouldn't be based on which band Irish people might prefer

Would it not be based on chart success? (Green Day only got to no.2 here with 21st Century Breakdown )

[Mellyboots]

There probably isn't even any criteria for winning. That would involve them putting effort into it.

I don't get why they don't just put it to a vote.

[04rebhop]

Aww it's between Green Day and Muse? No fair! Both their albums were amazing! I have to say Green Day were slightly better live though. Matt spoke to the crowd about three times during the Birmingham gig. Dom spoke more than him! But they still were amazing. So yeah i think Green Day will win. The Green Day fans are more lively anyway! ^_^

There has to be some sort of criteria

[Mellyboots]

There has to be some sort of criteria

Which name gets pulled out of a hat first...

Nah I know there has to be, but I honestly don't know what they'd base it on.

It's clear who deserves it, they better win.

[Isabel]

That's why I think it'll be based on chart success because it's basically letting the album sales decide.

[Alan86]

I laughed when I saw this on the Green Day Authority. I dont realy take the meteor award that seriously. Still hope they win though of course

[Isabel]

Yeah, it's not like an Irish grammy equivalent or anything

[Alan86]

^ Exactly

Its on greenday.com now too, thats even funnier.

[Isabel]

Yeah! What's up with that? And on their Twitter??

[Alan86]

Yeah! What's up with that? And on their Twitter??

There is only one explaination, Green Day loves Ireland

Of course, it must be that!
