This!

the only problem would be not having friends to go see them with you - for that, I am lucky enough to have my sister.

This is my main problem. I don't have anyone except for my brother, who just goes because my mum makes him; apparently, I need my 33-year-old brother to "protect me" from big, scary Green Day concerts. You'd think at 17 I can be trusted to take care of myself.

Hmm, I don't really like talking about Green Day to my friends. Sounds a bit silly maybe, but it's just kind of a personal thing to me, and none of my friends (as in, personal life friends, people on here probably do :lol:) really know how much I love them. Of course when someone brings it up I won't be all silent, but it isn't something I'll bring up. And it's not like I don't already talk a crapload about Green Day already on here xD

This.

They don't mind when I talk about Green Day with them but once I start to deepen the conversation they start to get well... freaked out? Like I can't even mention too much about stuff like the AI Musical and they'll think I'm weird for knowing so much about them. And if I just say something like "Oh he looks good in that pic." they start to think I'm madly in love with all of them. :rolleyes: As you said, they just don't know how much they mean to me so it feels always kinda akward to talk about GD with them, so I do it here on GDC. :D

Wow... I sound so whiny.

Then theres my other firends who like GD just because they think billie is hot.

Seriously? My friends think he's old and ugly.

All my friends seem to really hate Green Day for no reason. I only have to be listening to Green Day on my iPod and they'll start talking shit about them being, "pussy music" or "not being hardcore enough". :rolleyes:

I don't bother talking about them with my friends because I know I'll just end up being pissed off by the end of it.

I mean, I have two friends who like Green Day but they only very recently "converted" so there isn't much to talk about. If the subject of Green Day does ever come up between the three of us, our other friends always make they need to let us know how much they hate the band. :dry:

My mom would not have let me go to one at that age either. She still does not like me to go alone - actually I don't like being at concerts alone either.

That sucks though :(

I get alot of greif from my friends!

Before we broke up for Easter my friends were going onto me about how depressing the music is and how depressed BJA looks =|

And what annoys me is that they havent even given the music a chance, they just looked up the lyrics and were like "see its depressing"

-sigh-

My best friend is a huge Green Day-fan too, and she know about their old stuff, how they began at Gilman Street and stuff, so i always have someone to talk about Green Day with :lol: we're actually going to the concert together in June! And recently another good friend of mine has gotten really into Green Day as well, which is great, i also made sure that her very first Green Day albums were Nimrod and Kerplunk! So i talk about Green Day a lot with her too. My other friends don't really care much about them, so i only mention them once in a while when im with them, but thats okay ;)

yea well i can talk with my friend about EVERYTHING except music..

their music taste is horrible. i don't even mention green day anymore because they always says something stupid against them..

but it's kinda sad, because i want to show my love to this band and their music, but i can't because they don't understand why green day fascinates me :/

that's why i'm on this forum! everyone here likes green day :D

Talking to my friends about Green Day is like talking to pigeons about the weather.

Aoife is really the only one who likes Green Day but she hardly ever listens to them. Katie used to be totally obsessed with them, that's how we became friends. But she has changed so much over the last 2 years and now she doesn't really like them anymore and would opt for Lady Gaga far quicker. It's a real shame. I really miss not having anyone to talk about Green Day with. I know friends can have plenty of other common interests, but music is my biggest interest and it's hard to find other things to talk about sometimes.

My friends regret asking me or telling me about anything concerning Green Day. I just keep talking and talking about how amazing they are and just random things about them. Lol my friends tell me I killed the band for them cause I play them everyday and talk about them everyday!!!! :wub:

A few of my friends like GD but not anywhere near as much as I do. I tend to go on and on sometimes and they are just like.. stop already or they make fun of me! It doesn't matter because them not liking GD doesn't make me like them any less. I ♥ the GDC!

I don't really have any friends that like Green Day, but I do have a friend who loves the Foxboro Hot Tubs, so I just kinda talk to her about both bands :D

Omg I have this same problem. But im 19!

My parents ALWAYS try to find excuses to stop me from going.

I dont know if its cos they dont like the music =\

They were even hesitant about me going to see them at Sheffield with a mate and knowing that I Came home in one piece should at least made them realise im going to be ok at Manchester Cricket Ground =|

You'd think because im an adult they'd let me go with no problems but no.... I need to fight my way to see them :(

I really don't have problems talking about Green Day to my friends...

Well, when I talk to them about GD, they listen, but I can tell that they kinda get annoyed. Like, they have that 'omfg, stfu!' face, y'know? :lol:

I really could care less though, I'm still going to talk about GD to them, whether they like it or not. :)

Yeah :) I talk about Green Day all the time :D I am lucky person,cause my friend loves GD so much as me.

We talk about them constantly :D

She undertand me,when I see something pertinent to GD (for example page number "80" in some book or something like that)

But other friends think that we are obsessed and really mad...:D Never mind..xD

Some people were saying : " GD again? I don't like GD" when I talked about them in school,but now they get used to it. :)

I think that the majority of my friends/people I know seem to think that Green Day are a band you easily grow out of. They're always like "Yeah, I used to like them....when I was 16." :rolleyes:

My friends just tell me to shut up about them. I rarely actually do though.
