I was a fan of Green Day but only for the album dookie..sadly with this album came out I no longer liked anything my green day.Seeing 9 year olds with their American Idiot shirts running around made me want to puke.When the video American idiot came out,I wasn't that eager to hear it(since i was only a fan of dookie) and after hearing it, I instantlly knew that people who had never heard of green day in their lifes would instantlly eat this up.Billie and his band had sold out.(I knew someday it would happen).This cd is supposed to be *punk* but its nothing close.They came out with a lame pop punk cd that had sell out written all over it.But of course selling out maybe the best for them since they got more fans of this than they ever had in the past years.I'm 14 but I seem to now that this is onw lame cdgreen day 1 star for getting as many fans as you did.I applaud you,you sellouts
