Posts: 17 | February 17th, 2006 at 10:02am LockedUpInThisWorld:OK, long story. I heard American Idiot a few times before and liked it. I knew it was sung by Green Day, not that I knew who they were. I heard heard BOBD and liked it too, but never knew it was a GD song. My dad (who liked GD at the time) bought me the AI album. Then I got International Superhits and realised that I'd heard She and Waiting loads of times before, and that song my Dad always played in the car was actually Basket Case. I never saw a picture of GD until three months after I started liking them.  So yeah, that was six months ago. Since then, my dad has go me into MCR too.
HOLY FUCK YOU HAVE A KEWL DAD!!!! i got into GD by my guitar teacher, my best friends mom, and my tv |

No! Thats good! At least you're picking it up. 
Keep trying and eventually you'll type/speak it perfect.

Posts: 19 | February 18th, 2006 at 12:23pm a really BAD day at work.
as I clocked out at work, I wanted to listen to something loud with guitars (i had mainly dance on my ipod at that time)
i had downloaded American Idiot (song) only, put it on REALLY LOUD and thought "I could do with a lot more of this in my life".
bought the album, read the lyrics and have been addicted Billie's songwriting since. |

Posts: 6442 | February 18th, 2006 at 04:56pm Believe it or not...school.We had to do a project about the message that music sends and I chose GD because I liked Holiday(esp the lyric "The shame, the ones who died without a name).I thought it was great of them to send an anti-war message, so I listened to some more songs and the rest is history.Thank you SCHOOL! |

Posts: 82 | February 18th, 2006 at 05:04pm My dad got me into Green Day along with other bands like The Clash and Sex Pistols. He used to play Green Day's songs to me and my other siblings and I guess he got it on my brain and I've never stopped since  |

Posts: 11 | February 19th, 2006 at 12:58pm Since the first time I heard Good Riddance then Warning and Minority, I was always a slight Green Day fan. But I was still young and just getting into music at that time.
When American Idiot came out, I was addicted.
So yeah, I did become the fan I am after AI, but I still own all the albums [well most] & a handful of GD merch. |

Posts: 18 | February 19th, 2006 at 07:35pm I was around 6 or 7 years old, and my mom said that I could choose any CD at the store, and she said she would buy it for me, and I saw Nimrod, and just fell in love with it. I think it was because of Good Riddance that I chose that CD though. lol. But Ive been in love with Green Day ever since. |
