As far as my biggest influence to play music myself, I for better or worse, can not look any further than this very video by Green Day. It was mind blowing and changed everything. I thought they were the greatest band EVER. Better than Nirvana or Smashing Pumpkins. Although, by the time that Basket Case came out giving them huge success, I would already consider them pretty much worthless. Thankfully. This was the embryonic inspiration for my own punk band "Hideous Kids," which was a parody of Green Day's first moniker, "Sweet Children." Hence the name "Hideous Kids." The exact opposite of sweet children.
