Green Day banned from radio stations after calling US city a ‘s**thole’

Green Day was banned from two local radio stations after calling the city where the stations are located “as**thole.”

Earlier this month, the pop punk band’s lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong, 52, stepped up and blasted the owner of the Oakland Athletics for moving the team to a city he clearly hated.

Armstrong was performing at Oracle Park, home of the San Francisco Giants, along with his bandmates, bassist and co-founder Mike Dirnt and drummer Tré Cool, when he made his disparaging comments.

The setback also comes shortly after the punk icons announced their first Australian tour in eight years, but are now seeing disgruntled reactions from their fans complaining about excessive ticket prices.

“We don’t accept s*** from people like damn John Fisher,” Armstrong said of the GAP clothing heir and A’s owner.

Armstrong, an Oakland native and A fan, added, “I hate Las Vegas. It’s the worst hole in America.”

People in Sin City were rightly offended by the musician’s comment.

Radio station KOMP 92.3 in particular responded to Armstrong’s comments with a strongly worded social media post.

The station stated that they have “removed all Green Days from our playlist.”

“It’s not us, Billie…it’s you,” the station wrote in the caption alongside a goofy photo of the band with a no-go sign on their face and the hashtag “#vegas4ever.”

Similarly, another local station, X107.5, also shared their disapproval, writing on their website that they were also ‘banning’ Green Day from their playlists.

“In response to Armstrong’s inflammatory comments, the station is immediately banning all Green Day music,” their post read.

“Sin City heard him loud and clear – and X107.5 doesn’t have it.”

Just days earlier, Armstrong talked about how “devastated” he was that the Oakland A’s were leaving his hometown.

He took to Instagram and wrote a long, heartfelt caption alongside a throwback photo of himself as a young child.

“I was playing in the dirt with my Oakland A’s hat,” he wrote. ‘Must be about 6 years old..’

The musician continued, “The Athletics departure from Oakland is devastating.

“I feel for all the fans and the people who will lose their jobs because of greed,” he continued.

“Three sports teams have left Oakland in the last five years,” he noted, before adding that it “has left a cultural hole in the hearts and sports of the East Bay.”

However, he said he firmly believes that “Oakland will bounce back from this loss.”

“I will always remember driving to del Norte bart station and taking the train to the games. Some of my favorite memories,” he added.

‘My fourth-grade teacher always had the radio on in class so we could hear if Ricky Henderson was going to break the stolen basic record. He did,” he wrote.

‘Family, friends, [Krazy George Henderson, the inventor of The Wave]Billy Ball [also known as Billy Martin, the A’s baseball manager]. This one hurts.”
