“Some of you are asking about Green Day and if there’s anything wrong, or if we’re breaking up,” Armstrong live chatted via the Longshot’s Instagram story. “The answer is: no.”

“I am having some fun with some of my friends. I am what you call ‘a musician’. Some people have a hard time calling it that sometimes. With that said, shut the fuck up. You’re a fucking whiner, and I’m playing music because that’s what I’m supposed to do. That’s what people that play guitar, and drums, and bass, and they sing – this is what we do.”

He finishes up with: “So if you don’t like it, then fuck off. And if you do like it, come along, because it’s a lot of fun. Alright? Have a pleasant day.”
