Green Day

[Heather]

Green Day is not one of my very fav bands, but I like them a lot and today I won tix to see them in Nashville next week!!! Now I gotta find someone who can go with me, lol.

Green Day was amazing!!!!! The setlist was so incredible they played forever! They mixed up the songs really well too, playing a bunch from 21CB, then a few from American Idiot(pulled a kid from the crowd to play the entire Jesus of Suburbia), and they also mixed in old favorites like Basket Case, Brainstew/Jaded, Good Riddance, and Longview(which they pulled up kids from the crowd to sing to...so jealous...). Some of the surprises where 2000 Light Years Away and an acoustic version of Macy's Day Parade. Along with fire, little fireworks, confetti, explosions, and an amazing backdrop that changes with every song the production value was also incredible.

So you know to sum it up-best night ever.

SO i wasnt sure if i should start a new topic for this or not but is anyone else excited for the new play based on Green Days American Idiot? It starts on Broadway in April, and i already have my tickets. And the broadway version of 21 guns that was released is amazzzing. Bliss to my ears. So thats my two-cents

I skimmed through most of the pages in this section, and I'm kinda surprised I didn't see a Green Day topic O_o
Basket Case was my favorite song when I was younger. My mom got me listening to Green Day when I was in elementary school XD
Right off the top of my head, some of my favorite Green Day songs are Homecoming, Give Me Novacaine, She's a Rebel, and Know Your Enemy.

Green Day was my first major concert. My mom took me when I was 16 and I've seen them 2 more times since then, they put on a AWESOME live show. One of those kind of shows that you could have no clue who they are and still have a great time, it's just entertaining, and they play forever.

Lol my mom has GD tat on her ankle

I love Green Day <3
They were my first big concert too...they do play for, like, 3 hours XD and one of the first rock groups I started listening to
A lot of people say they don't like them anymore but I like everything from their first album all the way to 21st Century Breakdown =D

GREEN DAY ROCKS!

Dookie came out when I was 14, and totally blew my mind. I was already well on my way to becoming a huge metalhead - grew up on bands like Rush, Yes, and Black Sabbath/Ozzy, so this was a huge departure for me. When Dookie hit I was getting into the darker stuff - Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of Filth especially, along with the growing industrial movement. Green Day was inexplicably energetic and fun, but somehow fit into my cd collection without a problem.

I've seen them about a half-dozen times in the last 15 years or so, and they have always put on a great show. I DON'T like their slower stuff, though. Anyway, Songs like Longview and Sassafrass Roots were instrumental in my choice to play the bass, and to this day I still get a kick out of playing them.

I get so much of a kick, in fact, that I've been trying to put together a Green Day tribute band locally - with some luck I'll find some folks and be gigging by the end of the year. None of the slow songs, except maybe the epic progressive Jesus of Suburbia - man what a song!

Good thread!

Green Day is so amazing, American Idiot is one of my favorite albums, and Jesus Of Suburbia is my favorite song on it, but i like every green day song I've ever heard

[ColorfulDetonation]

I love Green Day I have a big Green Day poster in my bedroom XD Know Your Enemy is probably my favorite.

[Brianna]

I've always liked Green Day and I'm working on Longview on bass right now!! And I've been in love with Boulevard of Broken Dreams since...quite awhile Second to last day of break, my mind doesn't wanna work right now

[Heather]

I like Green Day! I had Dookie on cassette when it first came out, & I have most of their CDs. Love to try to play Green Day songs on bass.

[Splasher]

[Kemmy]

Any Green Day fans still out there? If so, what do you think of the new song?
