...Clay Aiken loves the and that's all that matters to him, but that don't make it right.

lol.   What do you have against GD?

lol.   What do you have against GD?

that they suck. I can see a 13 year old girl liking them...but a "serious" rock dude?

[C_stripes]

I don't remember ever refering to myself as a "serious" rocker dude. Green Day was the first band I ever really loved when I was 13. They are a cool band. What do you like. Elton John?  I can see you rockin that in your charger. Pumped up with the bass on all the way. wishing that you where Eminem doing a duet with him. Got your girl shades on.  ya.  Ponch and Elton doing a duet.

You know say what you will about Elton John, but the guy is talented. All Green Day has ever offered have been emasculated, watered down, Hannah Montanized versions of Nirvana and Kinks songs.

Most Def! When it comes to music it is just like your charger! Who gives a shit what everyone else likes... some guys like to go stock, some like to go fast, and some like to just be able to drive it! No point in posting why you dont like GD unless there is a point! I like I said, IMHO there last few albums sucked big, but I also think Elton John has some good shit so dont hate on tony danza!

IMO Nirvana was nothing to ever be that proud of ether. I mean come on how hard is it to make teenagers depressed in the first place?

Yeah, but at least Kurt Cobain earned enough cred blowing his own head off when he couldn't do it anymore. Green Day started wearing mascara.

lol yeah thats a good claim to fame. How about leaving music or something like that. IMO I couldn't really care that he offed himself in the middle of his fame.

[C_stripes]

Yes, Sir Elton John is very talented. I will not deny that. Look, I am glad you don't like Green Day,  who cares. I was just stating that I am excited that they are going on tour. Say what you will, but if they were not talented, there is no way they would be where they are. Yes, a few of their albums have not been the best. Name one band that has more than a few albums that doesn't have one or two that are not the best. American Idiot isn't for everyone. But it is a great album. It was put together very well and the music is good. I love the album. It's not Nimrod or Dookie. They weren't trying to make it that way either. As for the eye shadow, have you seen Nikki Sixx lately? How about Jacoby Shaddix(Papa Roach)? Lots of rock musicians are now wearing makeup. Who cares? 

I am not a huge Nirvana fan. I have listend to it in the past. But Green Day and Nirvana sound NOTHING alike. The Seattle Grunge scene and Bay area punk have total different sounds. The Ramones. Ya. They were an influence on Green Day. So some of their music has a little of the Ramones feel to it. So what. Lots of bands have similar sounds to the bands they admire. Big deal.  So why bash them?   

If you don't like Green Day. Congrats. I am happy for you.

If you do.  They are realeasing tour dates soon, and I can't wait.

[captnsim]

Green Day...Is that some sort of earth day thing???

Just kidding...Last green day album I bought was...Dookie . After that they lost me. I'll have check out some of the new stuff.

lol ok have you ever heard Paris Hilton sing? She has an album anothers on the way, couple movies, etc etc. and she's a little more talented then green day! And she sucks... in all ways possible...

[C_stripes]

Glad you think that.  I know one thing that she is by far more talented than anyone except maybe you. And that's sucking. In all ways possible....   if you catch my drift.

[SuperCharger]

lol that supposed to hurt? your just a green day fan

[C_stripes]

No.  I thought it was funny. I could care less that you diss-like them. Thats your business. Not mine. Doesn't effect me one way or the other.

Well,  I think I am going to go listen to some My Chemical Romance and cut myself now.   

Later.   

Oh ya.  And yes,  I AM A GREEN DAY FAN!!!!!   AND DAMN PROUD OF IT!!!!!!    And a few people that don't like them are not going to change it. Just like its your right not to like them. It's my right to like them. Maybe even love them.....    Listening to them as we speak in-fact. Good tunes.

[Lowprofile]

Wow! Whats all the hating on GD?

I toured with them for about 6 years or so......And I can tell you this.....they put on the BEST live show in Rock n' Roll That I have ever seen....and I have been to hundreds of shows!

Go see a live show Ponch, then tell me what ya think.

[BigRed66]

As for the eye shadow, have you seen Nikki Sixx lately? Lots of rock musicians are now wearing makeup. Who cares? 

The difference is that Motley Crue and Nikki Sixx, in this instance, have forgotten more about rock-n-roll than Green Day will ever know. Plus, you're comparing apples to oranges. Green Day are a bunch of mealy-mouthed pu$$ies that would get their asses kicked were they to run into the Crue on the street.

BTW, what kind of names are Billie Joe and Tre Cool?    How manly....if you're a 13-year-old girl.

And, Paul, Gene, Ace, and Peter were wearing face paint 35 years ago...Motley, 25 years ago. Green Day sucks.

You see, listening to Love Gun, Destroyer, Hotter Than Hell, Shout At The Devil, or Too Fast For Love will make you want to go out, find little punks like Green Day, and hurt them...listening to Green Day makes you want to go out, buy some crank, go home, and blow your brains out.

Metal Forever...Green Day NEVER.

I agree.  They are awesome live.

lol.  DAMN!!! Thats cool that you think that. I have seen crue live also. They are cool. But they are ass holes. I would much rather see Green Day.
Billie Joe is his real name and has been since birth. Tre Cool is just a name he got when he was young, I don't know the history. I am guessing that you grew up listening to the bands you listed above. There is no problem with you liking them. Green Day is who I grew up listening to. There is no sense bashing them. You don't know them, I don't know them. Low Profile has worked with him and also says they are great guys. I have seen them on stage and seen videos of them and they seem like nice guys. Look at that video of Nikki Sixx just recently being a stuck up ass hole. I know Green Day would never do that. For those who don't know what I am talking about, sixx threw a bottle of water in the crowd and a girl threw it back and and he acted like a little bitch. Green Day gets mud thrown at them and they laugh about it. No sense dissing guys. Even though you are dissing, I bet you would not turn down the chance to hang with them. right? if they came up to you and said, "hey, come chill with us and watch the show from the side of the stage". You or ponch would not turn it down. Hell. If Crue said that to me, I would take it. Not a big fan at all. But it would still be cool. I would defenetly gain some respect for them. The three of you that have been bashing on them. Have any of you ever seen them live? They have been rated in the top ten best live rock bands to see. That's pretty cool if you ask me. Anyway. It's cool if you don't like them, but there is no sense talking down on the guys.

[C_stripes]

SuperCharger, BigRed66, and Ponch. I hope you will all be happy together.     

lol

It's always easy to talk bad about people behind their backs or when they are not around to defend them self's.

SuperCharger,   I really think it's funny that 1/4 of all of your posts are on this thread bashing Green Day. lol. 

[SuperCharger]

lol I like how you assume things. I've never met green day and I'd doubt that they would be willing to allow you to hang with them from billie stuck up nature I wouldn't be surprised if he told you to go away. From his interviews he thinks really highly of himself and from the success I've seen from him He thinks higher of himself then he should. Metallica rules!

[C_stripes]

You think Metallica are not stuck up?  LMAO!!   I didn't say that Green Day would, I simply stated that IF they DID come up to you and say that. I would guess you would take the chance. I could really care less that you don't like them. I don't like Panic at the Disco. Who cares?
