    He had every right in hell to be mad. Whoever it was that took up their time, had better watch their ass.
    Good for Billie, I mean, but.
    Crazy fucker.
    Anyone know what he was on?

    I didn't even know this happened o.o
    Shows how much I'm caught up in the news.
    Well damn, I'm glad he has the balls to sit there and say he needs help. Good for you BJ <3 It takes a lot of guts to say that.

    I give him props that he admits that he needs help, it takes a strong person to admit things like that.

    I obviously don't know all of the details or anything, but it sounds horrible. I'm just glad he's getting help and hopefully it'll get sorted out really quick.

    Precisely xD Though I imagine the angle the media are taking is that of a threatening and abusive middle aged man. I can see the headlines now.

    I'd love to dust it under the carpet as him having a tantrum because as much as I love BJA, I hate to see Mike and Tre being affected by it. Though I in no way doubt that they are 100 supportive.

    Wow. I didn't realize he had made that statement.

    I watched the clip of his rant and all I was thinking was, "Wow, what a temper tantrum." I thought it was really juvenile, too. I mean, it sucks that his set was cut because someone else's ran too long. I think the whole situation could have been handled much better by those in charge, and Billie Joe had every right to be angry. But I was just appalled that a grown-ass man would behave that way.

    I guess it didn't occur to me that it may have been a substance abuse thing, but if it is, it's good that he's seeking help. I have a lot of respect for Green Day as a whole and I'm glad that they were "man enough" to do the necessary damage control, and of course that Billie is seeking help if he needs it.
