Drake Bell, Green Day, Bowling for Soup, John Roecker

Unread post by cartoonjunkie »

I'm gonna try and go in order here... :)

I met Mike Dirnt (bassist of Green Day) at the premier of John Roecker's Live Freaky! Die Freaky! in L.A. March 31st, 2005... That was the first time I ever met someone that I really knew and looked up to, so I was a little too star-struck to even speak to him, but I got to shake his hand and I got both my Dookie and American Idiot albums signed plus the pamphlet, but I turned out to be the idiot cause I brought the signed AI to school and it got stolen... :( Here are the scans:

I Met Drake Bell at the Premier of Green Day's Bullet in a Bible on Sunset Blvd. in Hollywood November 15th, 2005, and it's quite a funny story, me and some friends we made went off to find a shop that had gum, and halfway through the walk I got a feeling and said, "I think we should go back." But they didn't listen. Once back at the theater my aunt told us that Drake and Josh were just at the corner where we were waiting in line to see the movie and she said that Drake was still in the music shop across the street, so me and my friend went in after him, we found him and got a picture. Unfortunately I think we lost the photo and I didn't have anything on me for him to sign, but it was still cool to met him...
That same night, once inside the theater I got to talk to Adrienne Armstrong (Billie Joe's wife), I shook Jason White's hand, and I got a picture with Ronnie Blake and Jason Freeze who signed my tie, Again I think we lost the photo. And after the show my aunt got a picture with Danny Bonaduchy (sp?) who has the photo somewhere... :(

I got to meet and say 'Hi' to comedian Steven Lynch at the Spreckles Theater in San Diego, CA March 15th, 2006, he is such a smart-ass, but he's so flippin' funny... :) Here is the scan:

I met the whole band Bowling For Soup at the House of Blues in San Diego, CA sometime in 2007, I was apart of the BFS street team and got a special invite to meet the band after the show, sadly we weren't able to get tickets to the show, because we had lost the connection to our internet at home and couldn't purchase tickets in time, but I was still able to meet them... :) Here is the scan:

I got to meet Billie Joe (kind of) at the Pinhead Gunpowder at the Troubadour in L.A. February 4th, 2008, I got to shake his hand in the beginning of the show, and before they where about to go onstage someone behind me was asking him a question and he kneeled done in front of me, I asked him a question and he responded... :) Here is a pic someone took and you can see me in the front wearing stripes:

I got to met director John Roecker at the premier of his documentary Heart Like a Hand Grenade about Green Day, in L.A. March 25th, 2009, Me and my friend met up with a few other Green Day fans at a restaurant that was next to the theater and hung out there for a while till it was about time to start lining up. Once we got to the theater, there was John just standing outside talking to people and handing out programs to the movie. He really is a sweet guy, I was very happy to have met him... :) Here is a scan and a photo of me and my friend:

So that's about it... Mostly people that have to do with the band Green Day (as you can tell) but it's still cool to meet them... :)
