Good luck anyway.
AlissaGoesRAWR Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 Tbh I think the band would rather have the Raiders get to the Super Bowl before them.
Chin for a Day Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 Welcome to the forum. I love your enthusiasm, however, I can't think of one single petition that ever did anything. They are pretty useless. The NFL won't care about the petition. They are all about ratings, which is why they brought in Beyonce and Bruno Mars after the Coldplay back lash.
Hermione Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 Welcome to GDC! Green Day topics belong in Green Day Chat so I've moved this there
DookieLukie Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 If Green Day wanted to play the Super Bowl, they would have back in 2004-2007 when they were huge.
BilIie Joe Armstrong Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 I hoped this was a petition for Billie to bleach his hair.
localinsomniac Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 The NFL refuses to acknowledge the fact that concussions are an enormous problem in the game. They are not likely to pay any attention to a petition, no matter how many signatures it bears. That said, it couldn't hurt to try. I've always wanted to see Green Day play the halftime show.
okotavio Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 I used to watch this video wondering what it would be like. It's awesome.

Welxome (back) to GDC Good luck with your petition. You may have more success though if the band actually had an album out or had announced definite dates or plans to release one but as of yet it's all speculation. The acts that performed at the Superbowl last night were some of the biggest artists in the world right now as opposed to Green Day who haven't released an album since Tre in 2012 which was a commercial flop. When they do release their next album it remains to be seen if they will ever reach the heights of fame, success or chart positions they achieved years ago with the likes of American Idiot, 21st Century Breakdown or Dookie . Most of US HERE don't give a shit but to play halftime at the Superbowl you have to be kinda a big deal in the current charts/average person who isn't a mad fans mind
Guest Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Would you like us to send you $5,000 for your C&V tape while we're at it?
Seanz25 Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 As much as I admire your passion, your petition description isn't great! Quote It's been about 5 years since Green Day has come out with a new album, and rumor has it that 2017 may be the year! Wouldn't it be sick to see our boys, A petition you want to take to arguably the world's largest sporting franchise should never contain the term "Wouldn't it be sick" or "to see our boys." Nor should "since Green Day has come out with a new album." I'd recommend making it appear more professional first!
