{{edit semi-protected|Billie Joe Armstrong|answered=yes}}

To add in the "political views" section under personal life:

Armstrong has spoken out in support of trans people. In a conversation with the Times, Armstrong spoke to the ways that he’s still weaving his queerness into his songwriting. Naturally, the newspaper asked him about Green Day’s opinions on the moral panic over trans youth, to which the frontman responded, “I just think they’re fucking close-minded.”

“It’s like people are afraid of their children,” he told the newspaper. “Why would you be afraid? Why don’t you let your kid just be the kid that they are?”

Tour Dates were not cancelled

The tour dates while he was in treatment were not cancelled, they were, at least some, postponed. I am sure of this, as I was at the first show they were back on tour, which was a rescheduled date. Some may have, but probably best not to phrase it as an all or nothing statement. 173.29.24.67 (talk) 19:25, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

:{{not done}}: No offense to Frankie and the Studs or The Trash Bags, but if neither band is notable enough (by Wikipedia's standards) to have their own article, then their presence on the tour probably isn't relevant enough to be included in Armstrong's biography. I could maybe see a mention in the Longshot article, but not here. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 19:42, 3 March 2025 (UTC)

edit needed under 2013 onward

"For his work in the film, Bilie Joe" Billie is misspelt. 2601:603:200:BBE0:1D72:E48D:5E21:2C6A (talk) 00:50, 26 May 2025 (UTC)
