The cut his set from 45 min. to 25 min. to give Usher more time, then he got angry and said fuck a lot.


Do note, modern guitars are harder to break.

Hah my thoughts exactly. Seriously though, I mean if it was planned to be like that then it is one thing. I'm pretty sure they sprang that on them last minute though which would be really shitty.

No clue, I used to listen to them in my three week angsty teen phase 8 years ago.
This video just randomly popped up in my feed.

There is more then Reddit on the web, I don't visit Reddit and these things crawl around the web in the matter of minutes. It's hard to say who's first.

And my source in this was a Dutch news website.

I'm not the biggest Greenday fan but he has every right to be pissed. Good for him for calling them out.

From their standpoint, potentially turning down other shows to play a 45 minute set as it is kind of blows. Hauling all of the gear, setting it up, etc for a 25 minute set is a total waste.

dono why he's whining... they're still gonna get a fucking huge check.. and they aren't gonna get paid less because the organization decided to cut their act (for usher, ew). on one hand I understand the rage... on the other.. watching this video.. it more looks like he's just a self obsessed douche hole who wants to yell about OG he is. but whatev.

on another note.. I miss 90s green day. billy joe looks like he's 60ish and regularly uses rogaine. blah.

So this is what happens when those who build their livelihood around behaving like an angsty teenager grow up. Seeing a grown man in makeup throw a tantrum on stage and resort to using "fuck" every three words to express himself makes him so edgy and respectable...

what is this I don't even...


He got screwed in front of thousands of people, he was wasted, he lost his shit. We're all entitled to that sometimes. I think its more funny that the bassist was like "Shit, Billy's smashing his guitar again, better do that too so he doesn't feel alone" Teamwork, kids.
