I'm Em.
I'm a 20 year old English/History student living in Sydney.
I dig art, music and books.
I'll take questions on relationships, friendships, high school, uni, or whatever else.
I try to give the best advice I can, usually drawing on my own personal experience. But I'm not perfect, and sometimes when I look back on some of my advice it's far from it (especially when I was 15 and writing LiKe THiS). It's just advice, though. It's not an answer or a solution, it's simply a potentially helpful perspective. And that's all I can offer you.

Ever since I can remember I've loved Green Day. They gave me soo much inspiration. My dad abused me a lot and when I was 8 we got in a huge car wreck and that's when I moved away fro my dad. So I didn't have much of a dad influence and as crazy and stupid as this sounds Green Day and the inspiration it gave me kind of became my father figure. The more I learned about them the more I just wanted to meet them. They mean so much to me I even learned to playh guitar and fell in love with music. My biggest dream is to meet them and (once again I know crazy) be friends with them somehow. I realize tons of ppl want the same thing and I'm not saying I'm more worthy of it but its so important to me. I don't have money to get tickets to a concert to meet them. And I don't know what to do. Does anyone have any ideas? (link)

I don't want to bring you down, but it's pretty difficult to meet bands without going to their concerts. I think something that would mean just as much to you would be contact with them.
Try and find some contact information on their website. Usually it will have an email address or something like that. If you can't find a direct email, why not try their twitter? Just tell them what they did for you, and that you're grateful. It's really wonderful to tell someone that they've made an impact on your life, and made you the person you are today.
To get tickets, maybe ask some family members? Or see if there are any competitions on radio stations or on music websites. I won tickets to a concert on a music channels website, and I know a lot of people that have won them from radio shows.
I hope you do get the chance to meet them one day, but if you don't, don't be upset. I think it's just wonderful that they inspired you so much, and you should just be happy that they were able to do that for you.
And if you are able to get into contact with them, the feeling you get when they reply to your email or message is amazing. When I was 16 I emailed my favourite author telling her that I loved her books, and was completely shocked when she emailed me back. I was so excited and it meant so much to me to know that she read what I had to say and spent the time replying to me. Whether or not you meet them, just having them reply to you means the world.
