It honestly doesn't bother me how popular or unpopular a band is. If they make music I like, I'll listen to them regardless. The only thing that bothers me about a band being really popular is that they only tend to play big arenas. but yeah, basically all my friends are sick of Green Day now and I don't like them anyway. I kind of grew out of them, but I don't dislike them at all.

well

green day wins many awards and their albums have done great

and their shows all sell out

except everyone here says that they are like one of the only ones at their school who likes them or they know people who like them, but they are teenies.

everyone knows green day, you say "american idiot" somewhere and everyone knows that is a green day song

but when you say "billie joe" or "tre cool" or "mike dirnt" alot of people dont know who they are

so i geuss its just

they here all the stuff about green day

and are like "ew, they are mainstreem, or w.e"

but they dont accually take the time to listen to or to get to know the band

does anyone agree? or am i just not making sense here?

green day got hugly popular after AI, except most of those fans dont even know a GD song that dosent have a music video. But they also gained some true fans (like me). Also the sole reason many people (punks in practiclure, sorry i cant spell) dont like them is cause they say there too popular for a punk band, but honostly, you cant punish them for making good music.

In the end they have a few more die hard fans and MANY more posers that say they like them but dont even know the had albums before AI.

Mmm. well.

Green Day had a popularity generation after generation. They have more fans anyday

Apparently they're mega huge now.

I think then Green Day hates then the people call them 'Rockstars' cuz they aren't that.

They're together for the latest 17 years, doing what they love, That's they passion

and. Looking to them personalities they don't cares the money, The 'popularity' label, at all.

Like. They can still doing this for another 10 years.

I think everybody knows GD now, after American Idiot, but they know nothing about them (their names, other albums or songs...) and actually they only know AI's songs, so GD is more popular in the sense everybody knows them but that doesn't give the awards, if they have won so many awards is because they really deserve it

No one likes them at school.

Idk, I've gotten into more different music so I barely listen to GD anymore.

as the topic starter said, they win loads of awards and everyone knows who they are, but i only know one person who really likes them. so i'm not sure. also i don't think they are as populair now as they were when AI first came out, i mean it's quite a while ago so it's not very spurprising.

They did win loads of awards for AI. And I agree with you.

:thumbsup:

yeah that's what i meant. they haven't won any awards lately, not that i care, but i guess that's because most of the categories are like "song of the year" and "and band of the year" and they haven't released anything lately. except for "the saints are soming" and that song is nominated.

I mentioned Billie's name in school once I forgot why and people were like "who?"

That's sad. See, I'm the only one in my school who is really a 100% fan. I think over the past couple of years, I made sure that every one knew who I was talking about when I said Billie Joe.

I think they both lost and gained fans after AI

I'm the only one who is a die hard Green Day fan at my school and at my last school, but I know some people who listen to some of their songs and think that they are really good *oneofthemisaguyIwanttoscrewsobadly* :whistling:

but I dont care and I dont think Green Day does either....

I find it really sick that on ebay you can get underwear that says "Mrs Bilie Joe Armstrong" :sick:

Well... I am a biproduct (sp?) of the American Idiot era, so...

But, from analyzing the situation, I would say that Green Day's name is popular, but not much else about them. They were made very popular by their album American Idiot (as we all agree on)... But most people were just acting like they were cool because they were popular...

I, personally, know two or three real Green Day fans (two, I think). I know quite a few people who listen to them, but other than that...

There really aren't that many Green Day fans out there, are there?

But is is sickning to walk into a store and see a whole little area of Green Day stuff. It's cool you can find band tees and other merch. easily, but when you get to socks and underwear and other things, then you're going too far.

Who cares how popular they are. All that matters is that they're GOOD. Why does it matter who else likes them or thinks they suck. That said... AI did skyrocket their popularity. Unfortunately, the "teenies" found them. :( However, American was VERY good, and it actually got me into them. I just happened to move past AI and into Nimrod and Dookie and SOSH, etc.

well its become extremely uncool to like them. all the jocks and preps hate em, which makes me happy. most of poser emo and punk kids hate em too, which makes me happy as well. its basically just us losers that like em now. theyre really mainstream, but for some reason theyre nothing like panic at teh disco and falloutboy and that horse shit. i honstly dont know how they got so huge all the sudden, its not much like most popular music rigth now.
