Jaymee!! Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Yes, I am. When I'm not with Carling. Then we both are. But I am definitely freakier than she is.
Mrs.Kerplunk Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 yep. some of my closest friends like a few songs and i went to 2 concerts with my best friend.. but she still dont think its the best band she has ever heard of lol
Sister of Grace Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Well it depends on how you see it. My friends that I meet every day does not like Green Day very much and I am the Green Day freak to them But in a good way, they think it's totally awesome that I'm so dedicated (I chose to say dedicated instead of obsessed ) to a band and that I am actually travelling around the world to see them live and stuff. So it's not a problem for me really And then I have met so many awesome people throughout the years through Green Day. People that have become really good friends and within that group I am pretty sure I'm not the most obsessed one
Smoothed Out Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 I'm one on my own Some of them like certain songs etc. but even they start rolling their eyes after a bit when they realise just how into them I am Tough for them I suppose haha
in_your_face Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 well, most of my friends aren't much into music. they don't listen to any albums. they usually listen to soundtracks of various films. so, well, based on the fact, i'm the only Green Day fan/freak among 'em. but, they do listen to a few Green Day songs.it's just that, they aren't addicted to a particular band.
JadedHaushinka Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 My one friend likes Green Day and she was at the concert with me but she's not a freak or a big fan or so. My other friends don't listen to Green Day, so yeah.. I'm the only Green Day fan.
Comedy & Tragedy Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Yup, in school I'm the Green Day obsessed one. A few people I know like them, but they'd only know the American Idiot stuff. I don't know what it is, but there something about me that seems to scream "I'm an insane Green Day fan!!". My friends in school think that I'm insane for going to see them again after I had seen them once, only a few months beforehand. I barely ever mention them, but people still think that I talk about them non-stop. Also, I was forced to do a summer camp for two weeks, without about 10 other kids in my group. I wore a Guns 'n' Roses t-shirt one day and a Rage Against The Machine t-shirt shortly after. But when one day I wore a Green Day t-shirt, I suddenly became the stupid Green Day-obsessed girl. I don't get it I used to be annoyed by it, but after hearing Billie's speech at the concert, warning, corniness ahead, I realized that it doesn't matter. I have something that they will never understand, and I love it i have like, two groups of friends now. in one im the only one who likes/listens to green day and im really annoying. but the other one exclusively insane green day fans Ever since I came on GDC, it's been the same or me
Tubbie Head Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Meh none of my friends are as crazy as I am...but I have some friends that like a coupe of songs...but I don't really care..I like that when it comes to my friends everyone considers Green Day as my band Hahah that's exactly what happens in my case =)
SweetChildren_ Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Some of my friends like a few green day songs, but they're not green day freaks like me.
-Billiejoezee- Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 I won most obsessed for our yearbook.....
Linny Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 None of my friend that I personally know like Green Day. One of them actually took my French notebook (which I pictures of each member from various French shows and taped them on there ) and asked if she could destroy it. Only problem is, I'm almost positive she was serious.
Schlappy Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 naw i dont freak out about green day with them. thats what you guys are for my family thinks i am though
BillieJoeObsesser Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 well they know im an overly crazy Green Day fan but sometimes i share Green Day info with them but most of the time i dont because i dont think they are intesred in what i have to say but i try to be when they talk about there stuff. kinda makes me mad. but im thankful i have my sister with me because shes a huge fan of GD like i am.
V@L3 Posted August 31, 2010 Author Posted August 31, 2010 thanx for the comments guys!!! most successful discussion ive ever opened!!!
sportsfrk214 Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 I'm the biggest Green Day fan of my friends. The second biggest fan I know is my girlfriend. She kind of liked Green Day, and I really got her into them to the point where they are now her favorite band. I have another friend who is a pretty big fan and knows almost all of their old songs, but he's not really a big fan of their two most recent albums. And I have another friend who has a pretty decent knowledge of pre-AI music and who is learning more every day and liking them more and more. Aside from those people, most of my friends either don't like Green Day, or just know a couple of new and/or old songs. It's kind of sad, I hate when people say "Green Day is too political." It's like why don't you listen to Kerplunk and see if you still feel that way!
Holly Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 I'm the only Green Day fan of my friends, never mind the only obsessive freak None of the others even love any band and I love Green Day more than anything in the world so they all get very very annoyed at me and no one understands. I find it impossible to not talk about them a lot, even though I try hard.
annimaria Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 Ahhh yeah, I'm the GDFreak. My friends mostly make fun of them, laughing at Tre's weird faces and stories.
Malleus Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 My friends like all the popular Green Day songs and don't mind them, but they know how big of a fan I am. Whenever we're driving and Green Day comes on the iPod they know not to change it. But I don't really talk about Green Day with them, I do to a couple friends who I consider my close friends, but that's about it.
Francois Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 I have a few friends that are into Green Day, but not nearly as much as I am.
Karen. Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 I have two groups of friends. The first knows about the obsession (half of them have been dragged to shows) and some of them are okay with it/sort of understand. However, they do roll their eyes and say "she's one of those" every time I mention something about GDC/Green Day tweets, which I have resolved no longer to do. I think I'm getting somewhere with converting one of them though! The second group are vaguely aware that I kinda like GD but don't know anything about the obsession. And it would shock them. My parents don't have a clue but my brother and sisters know and think it's really weird. None of them are that passionate about any bands and don't like GD apart from the odd song. I don't know how I'm going to explain to any of them the next time a FBHT show comes up and I suddenly disappear for a few days. I'm determined to go (work permitting) and won't let their criticism/disapproval/accusations of craziness stop me!
iloveyouisntenough Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 I know plenty of people who 'like' Green Day. Just obviously not to the degree I do None of my friends are fans of them really
