Rusty Hart Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Green Day trending topic Worldwide now... (twitter) and there so many news about Billie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vic_Rattlehead Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I'm sure he'll pull through this though, Dave Mustaine is one of my biggest idols along with Billie, Mike and Tre, and he overcame a really bad heroin addiction and now he's better off for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 You know what? This thread is really starting to piss me off From what I've read, most of this thread is people bickering and bickering about what "it is". As many people have said, nobody knows exactly whats going on except for those close to him. I hate coming in this thread and seeing people stupid comments as to what they "know" it is. Why can't we leave the poor guy alone? Obviously he's going through a lot of stress from the new album and a lot more shit that we don't know about. I will admit some comments have hit on the nail on the head about this topic, some of which being about him sharing it in music and others pointing out as well people are going about this wrong. The guy has been doing substances for years, its no surprise that this has happened to him but its good to see he's got his FRIENDS and FAMILY by his side supporting him. I think its time where people should just shut the fuck up and stop arguing their shit. We know he's seeking help from substance abuse but nobody knows exactly what type of help and what type of substance(s). Get back to the "Good luck Billie!" comments and stop pretending like you're a god damn expert at this, unless you know him personally, you're not.

Vespertine Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I'm still in denial. God, I wish this wasn't happening. Why do I care so much? It's hard for me to even function atm, and I mean it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan86 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Actually, I *did* see an article saying that somewhere.....don't remember which one it was, but I definitely remember reading it. May have been a photo caption instead of a headline, though. Yeah I think I saw that same article actually after I posted that. It was bound to happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vrock09 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Still, after an entire day of letting it sink in, Im still in shock....I honestly dont know much about what's going on or what really happened, but all I can do is wish the best for him, his family, and friends..I'm glad that he's getting the help that he needs and he should take all the time he needs..

Melissa-Whatsername Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I'm still in denial. God, I wish this wasn't happening. Why do I care so much? It's hard for me to even function atm, and I mean it. I'm wondering as well why I care so much. I mean, for me it feels like this is happening to a close friend of mine... I don't even know him in person but... I couldn't even sleep last night just because I was thinking of him and his family/friends all the time I hope he will get better and that he takes the time he needs!

21 guns Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I just wish we had some more information... what is he in treatment for? for how long? how long has he had a problem? is he going in by his request or by others? will mike and tre make public appearances without him? will the band make a statement about it? will this affect the tour? is it serious? I just feel so left in the dark, I'm going crazy with worst case scenarios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just feel so left in the dark, I'm going crazy with worst case scenarios. I think we all worry and a few of us (including me sometimes ) are creating worst case scenarios, too. but as long as there are no new news (no news is good news right?) there's noithing more to worry about. and as long as Adrienne does tweet good things and Tré and Mike don't habe to appear in public with bad news as they had to 3 weeks ago (canceled show in Italy) I think we can sty calm. I understand that you are feeling left in the dark. That's why I had a terrible night. But we can not do anything but hoping the best and stay behind Billie and support him and give him the time he needs. And I am supporting him (and Green Day in general!) <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The questions were rhetorical... I don't demand answers to them, they're just things going around in my head right now. And if they don't want to release that kind of information, that's fine. I'm just worried is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E!!i Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Does "substance abuse" actually mean that he did drugs or could it be alcohol as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In time maybe things will become clear, even if that's in 10 years... I don't want to force answers right now if they don't want to give them, it's the kind of thing they will probably only talk about when it's all blown over. and that's fine. Adie's tweets are definitely reassuring. I really hope Mike and Tre are dealing with this okay as well. Anyways... I'm going to go into town and buy UNO!

E!!i Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 And do you think that when that show in Italy was cancelled he actually wasn't ill but on drugs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuckWithInsomnia Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Green Day's set was cut short, look on iHeartRadio's website, it clearly says "Green Day 11:05, Rihanna 11:50" They were meant to play for 45 minutes, look at the full concert video on youtube, 30 minutes.

Does "substance abuse" actually mean that he did drugs or could it be alcohol as well? it could be anything. alcohol, illegal drugs, prescription drugs... I don't think so. I hope not... it doesn't seem like they would lie about something like that. and if that was the reason, perhaps billie was the only one that knew it.

Liam Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 The band has been open about doing illegal drugs, spoken about it many times. Alcohol they've talked about as well. Again, whatever type of substance it is, is none of our business. Yes he's done all 3 but he might only be abusing one substance, who knows?

I can't believe this shit is still going on to be honest. Something else that's really pissing me off is people claiming they saw it in the new songs and "ooh maybe the albums are a metaphor for his problem!" Has Billie said that? No, he hasn't, and I'm sure if he wanted us to think that, he'd say it himself. We have no idea when and where this started and no the new songs don't tell us anything. Amy might not even be linked to this for all we know. It's none of our fucking business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amanda Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 To be fair, forums are for people to express their thoughts and feelings, so while this thread is open that's what they are going to do. We won't all agree with what others are saying, but that's life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
**Maria** Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 You know nothing, just shut up already with the speculations and just be proud of him for dealing with it. Good luck Billie, get well soon! We love you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
