Are We Losing Green Day Fans To More Youthfull Punk Bands?

Recommended Posts

It stands to reason that the vast majority of people's musical tastes will extend a little further than just one band. I doubt that there are many people who listen to just one artist/band exclusively for their entire lives, that would actually be kinda weird when you think about it.

Yes, there's been a little break after the massive tour and promotion surrounding American Idiot and before the release of the forthcoming album, and during that time many fans will use other bands as distractions till the new material appears.

But that doesn't mean those fans are lost, it just means that they are human and not going to sit around twiddling their thumbs waiting for the new album but instead focusing their attention on new music till it actually arrives and probably still listening to the existing GD songs in the meanwhile too.

I agree I love MCR new stuff an Fall out boys new stuff but I always listen to GD the whole 10 Yards(CDs)

Green Day made me happy, they showed me I didn't have to be the same.. they started building who I am today.. Just now other bands are finishing Green Day's job..

I owe Green Day a lot, if it weren't for them I wouldn't know half the bands I listen to today.. I wouldn't know all these awesome people I have met on this site..

But if they don't stop having sex with Bono and start bringing out new stuff, they won't be helping completing me..

If that made sense.. :P

I'm not losing any intrest. but I do like a lot of different bands, it doesnt meanIm losing interest

I think people who are losing intrest in them because its taking so long, are'nt real fans. the reason they are taking so long is because they want to make a record that fans will be happy with. why cant we just give them a break?

I think maybe an this is my opinion that Gd fans are getting scared that maybe Gd wont be back,Billie did say in AI QOUTE(Do we even want to do this anymore)they do seem to be going into conservation more (which is a good thing)we will have to wait an see

What Im probably trying to say is that Green Day had been a band for 15 or 16 yrs and to have such a big hit as AI,like how many awards they one,how many hits came of that CD,they were FCKN hot an to let all that hype go to waste I just thought they would of come back alot sooner maybe they would of been alot bigger than what they are now,I guess we will never no

Yeah, except for me I was obsessed with them for like 11 months then I got all the albums...and kinda lost interest and got into MCR more.

:lol: Actually, that's very true - a lot of these new bands got their inspiration from GD.

Oo but I can hear Billie saying we've been a band for 17 years! He said that at their last AI show.

But that was over a year so its 18 years now.
