Man I met Billie joe, mike, and Tre at the tiki bar with the interrupters in Costa Mesa (they were playing as the cover ups) and they were the nicest dudes. I bought a ticket for my birthday and wore an op Ivy shirt, and met someone outside who gave me a “back stage” pass. Mike and I talked for an hour or so and Billie came over with my friend, ended up having drinks with them until 4am. We found a jacket and Billie was just like “here it’s cold” and let me have it. Pretty cool memory.

I will give Green Day 100% credit for getting me into punk music. The first time I saw them was the Basket Case video on MTV. SUCH a breath of fresh air for me. It was fast, melodic, catchy, snotty. I think I went to to the record store the same day or maybe the next day to buy Dookie. Many punk bands say Green Day sold out, but I would have never even knew those bands if it wasn't for Green Day. XD

As a young adopted Asian kid growing up in a fairly wealthy Caucasian part of NYC, I didn't feel I knew who I was, what I liked, where I fit in, etc - I felt like an outsider, I felt like an alien in my own skin. Hearing Longview on the radio was the first time I felt like I maybe understood who I was. side note: Pansy Division has some of the best album/record names.

I've heard people say bands like Green Day and Blink 182 killed punk by selling out. When in fact all they did was bring to the surface the cracks that had already formed in the punk community. Tribes had formed and so did stupid, heated rivalries. The 90's exposed to the normies in the general public that the "Punk Community" was a very fractured community. Punk was never really primarily about the music style itself. It can be heavily argued Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson etc. were punks. Not by the music style, but the attitude they carried.

I'll start this off with saying I've never been heavily into music. It's always seemed like background noise to me and hasn't really influence me. I heard Basket Case and got the chills. That was the first time I ever really got into music. I ended up with a guitar and started messing around with it and the first song I ended up learning was When I Come Around. With the way that Green Day sounds, you can completely fck up the strumming and it still sounds killer. I now have Dookie and International Superhits on CD and am looking for more. I've been hooked on them since I heard Basket Case and they've completely changed how I see myself. I've never been more hooked on a band and their music before. I plan on starting/joining a band in my future because of these guys and I just wish I could tell them how much they've impacted me. At 52 years old, they are still influencing teens. Thanks Green Day!

The late eighties and early nineties was such a wonderful time and a wonderful time for music. We had the pop punk of Offspring and Green Day- grunge - Guns N Roses at their peak and most dangerous and exciting - the Brit Rock movement of loud guitars and drums with catchy Melodie’s (such as The Wildhearts - Terrovision and so forth) . And we are the last generation to actually live and appreciate and live in the moments and listen to and enjoy the bands at gigs, as opposed to constantly filming and documentation things for social media. We didn’t document and try to impress and show people what a great time we were having. We just had a great time. And early Green Day were a part of that.

My 1st punk show was in 91 and Green Day was the headliner. This was in Sioux Falls SD at the Nordic Hall. In 92 when Kerplunk came out I arrived at the show ( my 3rd time now seeing them ) super early and I purchased the CD and I asked them all to autograph it. They all did, Mike was hesitant bc he was a little embarrassed that I asked. I still have that CD to this day. It was awesome to get to interact with them, hang out back stage. Mike was showing me the new bass he was going to play that night, it was a Rickenbacker. The stage was super small so you were right in front of them while they played. Getting to watch this video brought back so many great memories to when I was around 13yrs old as a punk rocker/skateboarder.

You listen back to those early EPs and LPs and you can just sense they had a handle on it. Like it was just a matter of time. The best thing that ever happened to me was Green Day signing to Reprise.

Corbett Redford's statement around the 35:00 mark is spot-on. I was 4 years old when Dookie came out. My dad bought it on cassette, and I instantly fell in love with that tape - so much so that my parents gave me my own little walkman for Christmas that year, so I could play a dubbed copy of Dookie (with all the "shit"s and "fuck"s meticulously edited out by my dad) in my bedroom. It was the first music that really made an impact on me, and was my first introduction to punk rock. I owe a lot to my dad for his bringing home some really great albums during my formative years that shaped my taste in music to this day - Bad Religion's All Ages compilation (which was the second album I asked him to put on a blank tape for me), the Clash's London Calling, the Replacements' Tim and Pleased To Meet Me... he also gifted me a copy of the AllMusic Guide To Rock, which was still in book form at that point (1997 edition, and close to a thousand pages!) and which I devoured... ultimately, though, it all goes back to Green Day for me.

How is Billie's insanely unique and bad ass guitar strumming style not mentioned? He was a BEAST

This was the first band I heard as a kid and said.....yep I like this.those first 4 albums were so good,I replayed them over and over,I saw them play in WA, my sister won tickets off the radio for me,and it changed my life,ppl hate this band,I even said bad shit but I am so glad they made it big, it was never selling out as far as I'm concerned, they were so tight as a band,they wrote great songs and played them well

But then they brutally banned him from the club for being too successful. Even though Dookie wasn't really any less punk than Kerplunk and was actually a little harder.

Actually all the backlash was that the club was made for independent bands that have nowhere else to play, once they signed a major it makes sense that they were no in need of that space to keep playing, leaving that space for other bands. I understand they were pissed off because of all the criticism, because that place was their second home, but that is how the """punk scene""" works unfortunatelly... there is always a bunch of ungratefull people who things the bands are they own property and once they start making a life of their own art they become "sellouts"... it's stupid. As Overkill79 said, Dookie wasn't less punk thank Kerplunk (actually, to me, this is thw two GD's records that are sounds more close), and Insomniac too. In november 18th, 1992, the band debuted a lot of Dookie songs at a secret show at Gilman, and if you check that live recording, you will see that the album turned out exactly the same it was when the band we living they east bay punk scene times... so, it's completely stupid all the hate the band got from the people back then

@@greendayplay Yep they could have made the exact same album only in a cheaper studio for Lookout and everyone would have loved it. And then add to that the fact that the original punk bands The Ramones & the Sex Pistols were both on major labels and it makes it even more ridiculous.

Love him or hate him fat Mike always speaks his truth and I respect that. Gilman and that whole bay punk scene altho historically important to the scene is sometimes spoken about like it was this all inclusive punk rock utopia and that's the very opposite of what it was.

they're stupid, that's why. I'm sure you remember the shitty censored version of "Jaded In Chicago". Someone who must've had connections at MTV released the uncensored version. I used my audio skills to fix it up. If you want, get in the time machine and check it out (I did the soundcheck too) kzitem.info/news/bejne/k5mZqquXcn15pqg
