I should force that album on a friend of mine. She seriously needs to wake up.

What an amazing story that is. I love that album, by the way.

it wont matter to the kid how we feel about it, but i pretty much garantee one of his family members found it hilarious and are now keeping it a secret from him..

"Remember that time you got hit by the car? And you were in a coma? And we played American Idiot and you woke up?? Yeah, that was awesome." :)

I liked your subliminal message, like2_drink.

I did! I think I'll use that technique. Should I attribute it to you?

I didn't find it funny at all due to the fact he was from Aberaman in South Wales, so any attempt at irony is lost.

That's exactly what I thought...

EDIT: That's a pretty cool achievement for Green Day, nevertheless. Now I'm waiting for the story of Hilary Duff putting people into a coma. :eek:

I watched the Lizzie McGuire Movie (or whatever) with a 5 year old and 7 year old I was looking after. It was so dull I fell asleep.

There's your coma story.

Psh.

I don't know about all this. I'd say it's more of a coincidence than anything... but anything is possible, I reckon.

Either way, it's pretty cool of the band to go ahead and send him a bunch of stuff for free. I'll bet he appreciates it.
