Green Day

[proof109]

I can play some Green Day songs. I love them but only because I like the sound, I do not think they are hard to play. But they are my overall favorite band. Billy Joe is a great signer. Any thoughts? Btw, as soon as I get all my music set up, I'm gonna be upping a bunch of Green Day songs. I'm gonna make a thread and upload a bunch of songs.

Varied opinions on their group, feels like theyre produced by MTV for the kids.

Green Day has been around for almost 15 years, they're definitely not products by MTV, though their last album got a lot of MTV-esque fanatics.

I was discussing with a friend the other day about the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame. All the prestigue` that's in there, and how U2 is finally being inducted (I'm not 100% on all the guidelines required to be in the HOF, but I do know that the performer/whatever must be active for at least 25 years).

Anyway, we got on the subject of any bands / performers out now that would likely end up in the HOF should they last 25 years. Green Day was the only band we could come up with, as everyone out now is either a pop/rap MTV product, or just plain sucks. I don't know if Green Day has the longevity to last near 30 years, though they've been around since like, 1989 or something. '91 was their first studio album if my memory serves me correctly.

They're great.

They're my favorite band, and definetly not products of MTV since they were only playing grunge at the time "Paradise" came out

My favorite songs by them are Homecoming, Jesus of Suberbia, Basket Case, Minority, Coming Clean, and Macy's day Parade. I don't really like Longview, but that song is still a classic.

Classic: Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)

That's one of the best songs ever created in music history, in my book.

Yeah man, Longview is excellent.

My favorite songs by them are Brain Stew, Good Riddance, and Hitchin' A Ride, which is a certified masterpeice of a song.

my favorite band as of right now. ive been fans of them since Dookie.

btw- did anybody watch Storytellers on VH1. they played all of American Idiot live and they answered questions about the songs

[proof109]

Ya I love Good Riddance also. Catchy tune on the Violin in that song. I personally think Nimrod(of the albums I own)is the worst one.
(Out of 5)
Dookie-5 Stars
Am idiot-4.5 Stars
Warning-4.3 Stars
Nimrod-3.5 Stars

yeah I saw that, they are great live performers and seem very down to earth too

[-Sil-]

A+, although I can't listen to Caution at all. Thank Christ they went in a completely different direction with the new album. Dookie was the first actual CD I bought... and I had already got it on tape before that.

Ya I liked it. They anwsered some interesting questions, plus they played the whole Cd. The only song I missed was the last one Whatsername. I just went to bed. But all in all it was a very cool show.
