my earliest green day memory was when Nimrod had just come out, and the guy I really fancied was a fan and always wore a Nimrod t shirt..... I thought I had to see what all the fuss was about and my Green Day fandom was born

A couple years ago, I was at my friend's house, and her older sister was listening to her Green Day CDs.
Basket Case came on.
I liked it, so I asked her what the song was.
She said it was Basket Case.
So I Googled it when I got home and, I listened to it again, and I've been obsessed with Green Day ever since. =)

Then, this past Halloween, my friend's sister's band was playing at the Halloween party that my friend was throwing, and they were playing Brain Stew. My friend's sister (who's the singer) forgot the words to the second verse, so I started singing it, and she was like, "WTF! I WAS THE ONE THAT GOT YOU INTO GREEN DAY IN THE FIRST PLACE!". xD

I did the Math and this makes no sense, but it's what I remember - When AI first came out, it was like somewhere near the end of the year at our school, and so we had this picnic thing and it was the one year my family decided to go. So I remember we had a DJ and I was outside looking for my boyfriend (Zach, at the time) and American Idiot, BoBD, and Holiday kept coming on and I remember being pissed because I didn't like them then. omgno

It was, like, 2 and a half years ago. My friend (who was 9 or 10 at the time) was talking about how she had American Idiot on her iPod...

Either that or I saw a Green Day reference in a book I was reading.

My cousin bought ISH from a bootfair. My mum thought a song on the radio, by my then fav band McFly, was Green Day. My brother gave me a tape by GD.
