cindeeedasilva Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I literally have the biggest crush on Mike. & Cool, what do you do at the label? Mike is awesome!! I'm the executive assistant to the president. its a pretty sick job, i do a lot of the booking/contracts/tour plans etc. I'd love to take these skills and move to cali and work for Adeline Records or something a little closer to the Punk/Rock genre. Being a part of a Pop label is alright, but ain't really my thing lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angel green Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I think if I ever met Mike Dirnt - within 5 feet of him - I would not be able to stop crying and freaking out. I mean I just really love him so much How'd you react? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I just really love him so much How'd you react? I thought i was mentally prepared before hand... until he got out of the car he was in LOL. I was with my best friend who is equally a huge Green Day fan and she ran up to him and confessed her love for his music, talent etc. she tried to grab my hand to come up to him with her but I was frozen and couldn't process the thought of FREAKIN' MIKE standing mere feet in front of me! I ended up walking over really shy (totally not me!) and muttering 'i love everything you create' and we hugged and chatted for like a minute. He went inside this building and I bawled my eyes out the rest of the night hahahahahaha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestboundSign! Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Right until 2011, I used to write and read a lot of fanfiction. Then, I immediately realized it was a dumb thing to do, even though it was fun. Also, I remember me jumping around at the Green Day show in Munich 2010, screaming and shrieking my heart out from a seating place, haha. I now feel kind of embarrassed for how I behaved, I've never done this again at any concert I went to afterwards. Guess I realized how annoying it is right after watching the videos a few days afterwards! As far as I can tell, I still am kind of a fangirl. Guess it depends a lot on the definition of that term. I changed from how I behaved back then towards anything related to the boys, but I still can get really emotional over them! You'd also feel extremely observed walking into my room, but that's just how I like it. I still am into their music as much as I was, probably even more. And when it comes to pictures of them, I very often find myself staring at them with a huge smile on my face. That mostly happens with fan meeting pictures, though. These always move me a lot. Another thing to tell: I'm still imagining the perfect "meeting them" scene. I surely hope it happens one day and if it doesn't, I had a nice time dreaming and picturing those moments! Fangirling or not, my love for Green Day has really been growing stronger and stronger over the years. It still continues. And as people already said: I love Green Day for their music. Their good looks are just some kind of bonus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestboundSign! Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 HAHA I did that at my first show. Then I came to my senses and realized I belonged in the pit. But even at the last gig I went to, I was still kind of inappropriate, I was at the back of the pit rocking out and everyone kept looking at me like, "You alright, mate?" It was bad. Haha, there's nothing wrong with rocking out in the back! Totally agree. I mean a lot of people stereotype Green Day fans as like 14 year emo girls, which is totally ridiculous. I'd be terrified of meeting them and not being able to control my fangirling, which I really do attempt to control . It is ridiculous. And I guess that meeting them, it wouldn't be tough for me to control myself. Just because I couldn't realize what's happening before it's already over I'd probably talk to them just like with any other person, which I guess is a good thing! Oh yeah, I remember those times... Not too long ago either... So.. let us hear your stories, Anja! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angel green Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I remember being on line with some friends at the Green Day concert (Barclays Center 4.7.13) and I was so hysterical that some strangers came and patted me on the back ... Given, it was my first Green Day concert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angel green Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 lol I was there, too, how did I miss a hysterical fan?! Haha but it was the best night of my life ! During Brutal Love, I was sobbing so loudly I SWEAR Green Day could've heard me. Oh, the life of a fangirl... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cath Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 lol at the show i went back on april there was a big snow storm seriously it was so cold i thought i was going to die right there in the line there were people passing by us and one asked ''what are you doing here? are you waiting for the GD show?'' we said yes and he asked ''but why it's only this evening at like 8pm no?'' we said yes but we want to have a great spot so we're waiting all day. they looked at us like if we were sick or crazy and went away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angel green Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I skipped JOS and Brutal Love and went out to the buses to wait for the band.... I sound like a stalker X'D Howd you know where the tour bus was? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be terrified of meeting them and not being able to control my fangirling, which I really do attempt to control . I hate this, because it's not even remotely true. Looking at the Green Day fans I know in real life, there's quite an even split of males and females, only one of whom seriously fits the 'emo' stereotypes - and she doesn't even like the label, mainly because she prefers 'goth'. Plus, judging by this forum, there's also a significant group of older 'longtime' fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theMinority22 Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I'm a fangirl, totally XD I'm sure other people may find this in common with me, but they're with me, everywhere and all the time. I'm walking down to the bus and listening to them, and they're walking right behind me, even if they're not, y'know? Even listening to them around the house, they're there. Just EVERYWHERE I go they're with me... I think about them so much over 3 years I've been with them that my brain has fabricated them, hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HARVESTER Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 So when and where did you see it? I could help... I saw it in winter of 1993/1994 on a television in North Pole, Alaska. It was on cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cath Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Which show was that? And at the show in CT where we waited inside, my friend and I got there at 2:00 in the morning and then a bunch of others came around half an hour later and we were all sitting there and all the drunk people kept walking by - "What are you waiting for? Do you have tickets already? You do? What time is the show? WHY are you here so early?!" literally all of them asked the exact same thing so we made a sign that said "We're here to see Green Day. Yes, we have tickets. The show is at 8 tonight. We want the front." and propped the sign up and went about our business Because I got there really early and found the tour buses! (okay now I'm defff. a stalker) We saw the buses pull in and Tre waved to us! it was the quebec show on april 12th! even some people who planned to wait on the line give up after 10 minutes because of the weather. it was actually awful trust me yep people think we're really crazy to wait all day for a show but almost every fans of every bands do that no? the sign thing was a great idea haha you're lucky you got to meet them! people at my show said they got to meet Tre after the show he was at the bus. i'm so disappointed. i could have met him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musso_kn Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 Right, so I've been following this Scottish girl on YouTube. She mostly makes lots of hair, makeup and beauty videos, but she also does album reviews. Then, I came across this video and I...I still don't know what it's about. I just. Can't. Stop. Staring. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWULzuCvwcw&list=PLBB626CDE6505319A I'm not one for merchandise. I own one Green Day t shirt and that biography by Mark Spitz. I used to have a calendar, but haven't bothered with posters and the like since. I think it looks tacky. Yet I literally creamed myself when I saw her room.

HARVESTER Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 You could ask about it in this thread: http://www.greendaycommunity.org/topic/90051-green-day-qa-thread/ (Green Day Q&A). I don't think anyone is in the position to judge you here. Or if you wanted to, you could make a thread in this section: http://www.greendaycommunity.org/forum/123-green-day-downloads/ Requesting the video. Hope that helps. I think my attraction to BJA came with the connection to his music. He's not a typically attractive man, but at 13/14 when you're growing up and overwhelmed by hormones it's really easy to fall in love with celebrities you idolise in non-romantic ways. My love for the band definitely starts and ends with the music, but when I see people openly fangirling online I'd rather not waste time telling them to shut up, because its normal. They'll stop it themselves when they're old enough. I posted in the Q&A and only one person answered it... but they are searching for it now also... they haven't seen it. I didn't get to hear his music when I first saw him, the television was on mute when his music came on. If I had heard it the search would have been easier. When I first saw him on the television I thought he was a crazy man on the television set until I started listening to his words. I was told he was in a band called Green Day, but I had not heard it... then I was in high school and someone was playing Basketcase...I felt like gasping. I asked them who is that? and they told me Green Day and I felt bad. I hope they never stop playing their music, it is a part of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I had thought to make a sign, at first it was fun talking to all the drunk people coming out of the clubs but by the fifth or sixth drunkie I was quite annoyed.
