BCap Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 I know that John Lydon isn't a fan and that Joe Strummer is (well, WAS, since he's pushing up daisies now), but what do other bands think of them? I remember hearing Roger from Less Than Jake cracking a joke at their expense at a concert, but I doubt he was being serious. Any notable Green Day haters out there (again, other than Lydon)?
Lindsay Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 Does it really matter what other bands think? I think Green Day could give two shits about what people think about them, I admire them for that. Better to focus on the positive comments than the negative comments anyways.
Ritz Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 I don't give a shit. I love Green Day and that's what matters to me the most!
Jet Taman Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 I think Brandon Flowers of the Killers had some unkind things to say about Green Day especially around the American Idiot timeframe. I think it was some kind of "America--love it or leave it" snide comment. Then again, Metallica, Blink 182, Alanis Morrissette have all voiced their support and love for the band.
Sarcasm Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 Merged with famous GD fans thread, even though I copied the wrong URL to the wrong topic. I fucked up the merging, but I am only human and it's 4.40AM, so yeah.

Yeah, I read the same thing about Brandon Flowers.
Lulu Flowers Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 I saw Joesph Gordon-Levitt, Drake Bell, and Matt Bennett (the puppet guy with the fro from Victorius) when GD played the Echoplex. Assuming they're all fans.Oh, and Frank Iero, the guitarist of My Chemical Romance, learned guitar by imitating Billie. He definetly loves them.

Jet Taman Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 I think i saw somewhere that Seth Green likes them. Whenever I do a search on my DirectTV box of Green Day, Seth Green's name comes up. I think it's because there's an episode of "Entourage" called "Seth Green Day".
Insomniac1984 Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 Brooks Wackerman, Bad Religion's drummer, is a Green Day fan too!! Check this at 3:04. Brooks says he liked ¡UNO! and declared himself as a fan. I wonder if he liked ¡DOS!?
Akshat Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 Does this make anyone happy yeaahh that's lady gagatom cruise and katie holmes(before their break up of course)
Akshat Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 I remember 1D talking about meeting Green DAy AFTER their performance at VMA, Niall from 1D said he is exited to meet Green Day as "They were the biggest band around when he grew up" We all have seen Aviril Lavigne cover basketcase and american idiot.But I saw a video on youtube with her singling the lyrics of Longview.I guess it was some documentry. During pop disaster tour, Mark Hoppus said that Green Day is their inspiration and it's their sound which inspired them. Mark Zuckerburg is a Green Day fan too.I guess you remember Billie performed for him "as a friend" during his wedding, for free. Serena Williams is a die hard green day fan.I saw videos of her singling 2000 light yeARS away.She even tweeted about BJ during his rehab. The first album that Lady gaga bought was Dookie. Weezer have covered Brain stew/jaded.Check youtube.They also have Green Day in one of their songs. Wierd Al Yankovic is a Green Day fan too.He covered American Idiot and made it's parody called Canadian Idiot.He has also covered Basketcase. Floernce and the nightangle covered hitchin a ride recently The list goes onn.....I cant type so much sorry
Yojimbo Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 Glen Matlock from the Sex Pistols (he was the bassist before Sid Vicious) likes Green Day.

Insomniac1984 Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 Weezer have covered Brain stew/jaded.Check youtube.They also have Green Day in one of their songs. You're wrong, Weezer have just covered Brain Stew and Worry Rock. Bye
spark in the night Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 Brad Pitt likes them Brandon Flowers is a pussy. He claims he started the guyliner trend. Fuck off. Jack White claims he started the black/red/white color scheme (I read this during AI)
YORUGUA Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 Back to 1995 in an interview with Courtney Love, she saids that if Kurt Cobain were still alive, he would be very proud of a band like Green Day
Yojimbo Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 Back to 1995 in an interview with Courtney Love, she saids that if Kurt Cobain were still alive, he would be very proud of a band like Green Day That'd be pretty cool. I remember reading a review of '21st Century Breakdown' written by Krist Noveselic from Nirvana and the whole thing praised the album. And in the review he mentions that Pat Smear also like GD. http://blogs.seattle...own_is_gree.php
WhiteTim Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 According to Jason Mewes (of Jay And Silent Bob) said Billie Joe is a close friend of his
Ana. Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 love love love the billie and gaga pic, it's so cute
WhiteTim Posted December 3, 2012 Posted December 3, 2012 The guy who played Eric on Boy Meets World says his favorite band of all time is Green Day
michidookie Posted December 3, 2012 Posted December 3, 2012 As someone just said, Steve Jobs seems to like Green Day! At the end of this video he plugs his iphone and shows his music library. There is a lot of bob dylan (he was A MANIAC of Bob), a lot of albums but he plays "Boulevard of broken dreams" and than you can see he has American idiot album, Insomniac and Dookie.. Great stuff, there is Johnny Cash too!!!! xD http://youtu.be/R09xOG9-3Q8
Heather. Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 Skip to 2:05, Harry Potter himself says everything that has come after Green Day has been a disappointment http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qH821ZGHPzw Definitive.

La's Letterbomb Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 Glen Matlock from the Sex Pistols (he was the bassist before Sid Vicious) likes Green Day. That's so great! Where did you hear that? Brooks Wackerman, Bad Religion's drummer, is a Green Day fan too!! Check this at 3:04. Brooks says he liked ¡UNO! and declared himself as a fan. I wonder if he liked ¡DOS!? I've watched a youtube video before when I was getting into Green Day first where Bad Religion said something like 'I knew our fans wouldn't like Green Day'. Nice to see some members of the band like their stuff though. Awkward... There's a video of Billie saying he hoped Steve Jobs would die of cancer... which he did... so it's really sad. Seriously? What an awful thing to say, where did you hear that?
