Is it just me... or does it seem like US hates GC?

There are like 0 GC fans in my area... and it just seems like Good Charlotte is more popular in every other country in the world...just not US... :(

There are still fans obviously, but not as many as there were.

I wouldn't say that the US hates them, though. For a brief moment, everybody loved them. People here just have many different genres thrown at them, and something's hot only for a short period of time.

Shame that the fans that are still here had to wait for a proper tour for the past 2-3 years. That's the price we pay. There's more money overseas and beyond.; ▶ Reply to This

There are so many different artists coming out all the time and kids are so worried about being hip or cool or whatever you want to call it these days, they just follow the musical trends like sheep!!!! My daughter's friend has had like 20 all time favorite bands since GC first came out. She used to worship the ground they walked on. Now she could care less and says they are sellouts etc. I told her she had better not ever get married because she is the most fickle person I've ever seen.; ▶ Reply to This

He said she had black hair and facial piercings. We had just been down to Atlantic City for that show and he said to her 'I bet you would have liked to have been my wife last week. She just went and saw Good Charlotte!!' He said the girl's eyes lit up and she was like, "OMG!! I love Good Charlotte!!"

Imagine that.; ▶ Reply to This
