Any Green Day fans?

[luv]

I have to admit I like them. They're playing at Sprint Center on Aug 12. I thought about trying to go.

[007]

They had a few good songs.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

They had a few good songs.

Dookie rocked all the way around. I think this was my favorite Green Day song.

Luv, Hatebreed will be here 8-4-09. thats a show you wanna see.:D

[patteeu]

I've liked Green Day since their Dookie CD (I saw them on that tour at Woodstock) and I think they've continued to put out good music, but I don't understand why they were the (pop)punk band that made it big while bands like The Offspring, Pennywise, and MxPx didn't. Especially The Offspring.

You can also see them in KC on June 12th, along with Type O Negative. That'll be a good show too.....

offspring is pretty fucking big. I bet their concert in Kansas City sells out 15k or so.

It doesn't seem like they've had nearly the success that Green Day has had. They're headlining their upcoming concert, but it's really a multi-band festival type thing rather than a stand-alone Offspring show and the price is pretty low compared to most bigtime shows (which is great). A couple of years ago, Offspring played the Uptown and I'm not even sure they sold it out. It was a great show, btw.

no they haven't had the success probably because dexter's voice is not great, and omg Pretty fly for a white guy + my girfriend = epic fail. jfc thanks for bring up the offspring now.

[Sure-Oz]

I can't stand Green Day honestly...i think i like 1 song

[patteeu]

LOL, sorry. I think Dexter's voice is one of the best voices in rock music though.

lemme guess you like rush too :o)

[patteeu]

I don't like Geddy Lee's voice if that's what you're asking. I don't know how you could compare the two. Aside from that, Rush is alright though.

just giving you shit, but to answer your question the reason offspring isn't bigger is because they shot themselves after hearing pretty fly for a white guy. They are in idle hands and some girl in that movie isn't bad looking

Yeah, when I was looking around trying to see what kind of record sales Offspring has had in comparison to Green Day, I read a few things about how Offspring had turned off their own punk fans and then pissed off their major label management later down the road so those things might have something to do with them not realizing the potential I think they have.

Green Day has just managed to put together more hits since Dookie. While the Offspring has had moderate mainstream success since smash came out in 94. Personally I like Billie Joes side projects more than Green Day. Pinhead Gunpowder, The Network and Foxboro Hot Tubs all great albums to check out.

Thanks for the tips. I'll look out for them. I've never heard of any of them.

[Mr. Krab]

I like 'em.

I'm sick and fucking tired of that damn "Know your enemy" song already.

[BigRedChief]

Saw them once. They rocked it out.

[Ebolapox]

it doesn't get much better than 'this is now.'

the offspring never made it big? yeah, ok, sure. what's your definition of 'big?' cause by all definitions I could use, they DID hit it big.

[htismaqe]

Go see them now. You'll LOVE getting preached to about how your an idiot and sheep.

rage against the machine?

[Demonpenz]

naw it is green day's new song is it is being killed by every alternative station including satilight

[DaKCMan AP]

Green Day is my favorite band. They're Awesome. Like DaKCMan AP.

[patteeu]

Nothing like Green Day big as far as I can tell. The last two Offspring releases have dropped without much fanfare at all, but Green Day's new album hasn't even hit the stores yet and Green Day hype is about all I hear when I listen to music radio lately.

[MOhillbilly]

got a NYHC dvd that has ricktalife or someone talking about how green day blew up and they were next.ROFL

[CoMoChief]

Dookie was a good CD I thought.

[MOhillbilly]

Hate em'. have since day one. pop punk power to the masses set off a tidal wave of green hair and lip rings.

[Jewish Rabbi]

naw it is green day's new song is it is being killed by every alternative station including satilight

I don't even listen to radio... It's been all over ESPN and a few other sports networks the last couple of weeks.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

lemme guess you like rush too :o)

You dirty cock sucker......................

[MoreLemonPledge]

Green Day is the epitome of "meh" to me. I won't turn off a Green Day song on the radio, but I sure as hell won't put in one of their albums.

[BryanBusby]

Free preview of the entire new album from them. All I can say is, barf. About 3 minutes into 21 Guns...I hear a riff from the intro to Full House. No, seriously. Horseshoes and Handgrenades sounds like a track from The Hives. What a boring, useless album.

[Pablo]

They're pretty meh...

Pretty much thought they were decent back in the 90's, but then they released garbage like 'Warning' and 'American Idiot'.

I don't mind hearing them every once and a while, like if I'm at the bar and someone plays them on the jukebox..but I'm not gonna spend my $.50 to hear anything they play.

I love their creativity.

yeah this new stuff, sounds like a frat guy would play to get laid

Offspring post "Ixnay on the Hombre" is pretty bad IMO.

Although the pop-punk guys with the neck tattoos seem to like them.

the newest shit they have on the radio isn't horrible.

I haven't heard it, I'll keep an ear open.

I guess I can see what you're saying. they were huge when I was a senior in high school.

then again, quite a few bands that were huge when I was a bit younger have really fallen off--offspring and korn both come to mind.
