Two Las Vegas-based radio stations are refusing to play any Green Day songs after the band’s lead singer, Billie Joe Armstrong, made negative comments about the city.

It all started when the 52-year-old musician criticized Oakland A’s owner John Fisher for deciding to move the MLB team to Sin City. 

“We don’t take s*** from people like f***ing John Fisher,” Armstrong, an Oakland native, said at a show in San Francisco’s Oracle Park in late September. “I hate Las Vegas. It’s the worst s—hole in America.”

The station KOMP 92.3 shared a photo of the band with a giant red “no” symbol superimposed on top of its Instagram. The caption said, “KOMP 92.3 has pulled any and all Green Day from our playlist. It’s not us, Billie…it’s you. #vegas4ever.”

A second Vegas-based station, X107.5, shared on its website that it would be making the same move. “In response to Armstrong’s inflammatory comments, the station is banning all Green Day music, effective immediately,” the station said, per People

Fisher is a former part-owner of the San Francisco Giants along with his father and is a current owner of the A’s since 2005. It was announced in April that the team would relocate to the New Las Vegas Stadium. At the team’s last Oakland game, the crowd started a “F*** John Fisher” chant, the outlet noted.

In August, Armstrong posted a video of himself vandalizing the Athletics logo in the Toronto Blue Jays clubhouse at the Rogers Center. The Green Day singer can be seen spray painting a “B” over the letter “A” on the team’s logo and crossing out the word “Athletics.”

Armstrong is known for making strong political statements. The singer and his band were mocked earlier this year for changing the lyrics to one of their songs.

While performing the band’s 2004 hit single “American Idiot” at ABC’s “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve” presentation, Armstrong sang, “I’m not a part of the MAGA agenda” instead of the original lyrics, “I’m not a part of the redneck agenda,” as The Daily Wire previously reported.

X owner Elon Musk made fun of the band for the move. “Green Day goes from raging against the machine to milquetoastedly raging for it,” the billionaire entrepreneur shared in an X post at the time, adding two laughing-crying emojis.
