american cheez Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Shame on you Billie... that would suggest he previously had some credibility to begin with. he and his band are the embodiment of all that is wrong with the music industry today. jmo of course, ymmv, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cody78 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Duff McKagan from G N' R used a fake LP a lot with his band Loaded. Odd these guys never got really big like say the Foo Fighters, as I think they were much better than FF (and Green Day!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duff was never really a great singer, but had lots of punk rock influences...and a lot of those guys couldn't really sing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tx-ogre Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Ugh! Enough said. Never a Billie Joe or Green Day fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cody78 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Wow! People really dislike Green Day on here. I don't think they are that bad...I mean I was never really much of a fan, but they do have some ok stuff like the Nimrod album and also some funny one liners in their early lyrics. For me, Green Day just remind me of high school and all the kids who didn't really like rock music (which was 99.9 per cent of them) seemed to accept Green Day for some reason. We used to play a few of their tunes in my high school band, mainly to keep people listening as the rest of our set was Metallica, Guns N Roses, Black Sabbath & some crowd pleasing Red Hot Chili Peppers. If it wasn't for Green Day we would have got bottled by the pop/ dance/ hip hop/ & general crap loving crowd! I went to an awful high school Good job this isn't a Beatles thread. Never say you aren't much of a fan of those guys or you get lynched! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelT Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 I think Green Day is ok. I like The Ramones better. But, they brought that kind of a sound to a new generation. They're not my favorite, nor are the Beatles. Wait, put down those pitchforks and torches! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Day are from the high school that I went to :0 I'm not a Green Day fan, or really a fan of "pop punk" (oxymoron?) in general, so I gotta bite my tongue a little Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saturn Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I really like Green Day. Catchy as hell songs. Me too. And Blink 182, and Nickleback and some other bands that I'm supposed to hate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Scales Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I should like Green Day based on other musical preferences, but for some reason I don't - maybe his voice or contrived catchiness, I don't know. I prefer Against Me in that sort of music, but I'd take the Stooges every day over any of the latter day 'punk' stuff though. Haven't heard much Nickelback but I thought that song where they had the countdown timers over people's heads in the film clip was good (that was Nickelback yes?). Blink 182... if I've heard them I'm not aware of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
