Billie Joe is seeking treatment for substance abuse. We would like everyone to know that our set was not cut short by Clear Channel and to apologize to those we offended at the iHeartRadio Festival in Las Vegas. We regretfully must postpone some of our upcoming promotional appearances.

I agree with everything you
I agree with everything you said on stage the other day. Fuck iheartradio, fuck clearchannel. They are killing the music industry. People are making music now to be famous and not for the sake of music. I'm not the biggest Green Day fan, but I signed up because I'm glad you spoke your mind. But for the record, I had Dookie on cassette tape, and Insomniac was fantastic. Hope rehap goes well and hope the rest of the band keep doing their thing...
Whatever happens, we love you
Whatever happens, we love you. Your music means so much to lunatics like me everywhere. Almost makes me feel normal. Get well bud.
I just watched last night's
I just watched last night's performance and I have to say your actions are true. You guys are legendary and need not apologize for anything. You speak your mind and I respect that. Billie Joe I send lots of love and wish for you to get back to what you love but, please take care of yourself. I live for Green Day music. It gets me through those "Fuck You!" days and get me reved to push on. Love you guys. Hope to see you at the Fillmore if not this Friday, soon. Lots of love.

Hey Billie, I hope you get
Hey Billie, I hope you get better soon. I hope you get back on the stage soon, can't wait to see you in Vegas! I'm really looking forward to seeing you guys at Tilly's if you guys are still up for. You got me to play guitar and I can't wait to see you play. Get well soon! -Christian
Hey Billie Joe, I know your
Hey Billie Joe, I know your going through some rough shit, shit i may never know about or understand, but whatever it is, your family, bandmates, myself and the rest of your fans we are ALL here for you. I dont give a fuck if you dont make another record, it wont mean shit to me if YOU arent right, if YOU'RE suffering. YOU were the one that got me to start playing guitar, YOU were the one who got me to start song writing and YOU were the one to say that i wasnt alone in my life. i went through some serious stuff. i wasnt accepted in high school or anywhere else, no girlfriend, no hopes, no future. considered blowing my own fucking brains out over it, but you know what? I didnt. why? because you showed me that none of that shit matters. each days and new day, a new beginning. fuck yesterday. YOU need to do the same thing. FUCK yesterday, FUCK all the shit that happen at the music festival, get better, take as long as you need, and dont look back. you have my full support, just remember, take care of you and dont worry about us (your fans). I know you have a great compassion for us, but your TRUE fans will understand and be patient and support you. Get better Billie Joe. -Aaron

Dear Mr. Armstrong,
Dear Mr. Armstrong,
If I can beat tobacco and various street drugs, Im positive you can. Best wishes for you, and the rest of the most excellent band.
OK, so I watched more of the
OK, so I watched more of the clips. Yes Billie is probably a bit toasted. But what that dam show did to GREEN DAY, that was bullshit. If they did not cut their time, I think it would have all been fine. And that show sucks for cutting time from Green Day to give Usher more time. Ugghhhh vomit time. So glad I did not spend my hard earned $$$ to go see that rip off. I am going to Voodoo where Green Day is headlining.
God's peace.
God's peace.
Bloody hell--the best part of the fuck'n show! That's where the shit got real. iHeartRadio...untwist your panties. You popped the guitar smashing cherry on those bitches. And their gonna love you for it.
I just want to let you guys
I just want to let you guys know that I support everything the band and its members do and say. American Idiot inspired me to learn the guitar, and the band's full catalog has had an immeasurable impact on my life. Without Green Day, I would not be in college studying to graduate with a degree in music in two years. Billie, Mike, and Tre are my heroes, and I think it is unbelievable how poorly Green Day has been treated by Clear Channel. Keep fighting guys, you are the last true punk rockers. Be the Minority like you always have been, and don't let these corporate assholes intimidate you. As Billie once told me, "You have the fuckin' power. We're the fuckin' leaders. Don't let these bastards dictate your life, or try to tell you what to do!"
WTF?..apology ? For what ?
WTF?..apology ? For what ? Fuck them . The statement seems bullshit and forced "was not cut short " ? I'm sure Billy just flipped out for nothing ...don't think so . Stop kissing their ass and get back to rocking ! You owe nothing to them . See You in CT.
oh noo!!! billie did't need
oh noo!!! billie did't need this!! don't do it please D:
I hope that Billie gets well;
I hope that Billie gets well; I wish him the best to find himself and that he gets better!! My heart goes out to you! <3 I have been a fan of your band since I was in 3rd grade! And I have been going to shows since I was 13 years old, Green Day is my favorite band and really my outlet and safe haven if you will, I haven’t missed a show you’ve done in Pennsylvania in 7 years and I have tickets for your show on Jan,. 11th, I hope that you can still make it and to all your other shows!! Even you can’t, your fans will still love you and be there for you to get back on your feet. Get well Billie Joe Armstrong!! Stay strong and make your pursuit back to happiness. <3 <3
Get well soon, Billie Joe!!!!
Get well soon, Billie Joe!!!!! I've been listening to Green Day since I was 14 and I still can't get enough of your sound and message. You have no need to justify your actions at iHeart Radio Festival; you were just pissed from getting your set cut, is all. Can't wait to see you, Mike Dirnt and Tre' Cool at the Wolstein Center on January 30th!!! Wishing you Love, Peace and Rock and Roll... Amanda

Vamos Billie. desde Argentina
Vamos Billie. desde Argentina te mandamos muchas fuerzas y a salir de esto! que los queremos volver a ver! GENIOS <3
Just signed up to wish you
Just signed up to wish you well Billie Joe. At 57 y.o. I got turned on to Green Day for the first time with American Idiot. You guys wrapped up the whole GWB FUBAR and put a bow on it with that album. I was hooked. I loved 21st Century Breakdown and I'm looking forward to UNO. Seems like you all have been pushing really hard creatively and professionally in every direction, (including the Broadway show).
Do what you gotta do to give yourself room to breathe. The quality and quantity of the band's output has been super impressive, but it has to be stressful too. I want Billie Joe and the band to be healthy and keep making bad ass music. There's really a lot of dreck out there these days. Green Day harkens back to a more substantial time. We need you guys to keep doing what you do best.
Good luck for a complete recovery Billie Joe, and to a clear, clean path to the rest of the f'n 21st Century.
I hope Billie gets better, we
I hope Billie gets better, we love you<3

Don't apologize! Green Day is way better than freakin Usher!
whatever is going on, Billie
whatever is going on, Billie Joe, Mike, Tre, I love you all. I send you my love and support because you all deserve it, as you have helped me through Many MANY rough times. I am forever grateful and supportive of everything. Regardless of anything, Billie You are an amazing human being, Mike, You are an amazing human being, and Tre, You are an amazing human being.
