There is also a good Q&A with Mike Dirnt where he talks about how the incident at the show in Vegas where Billie had a "meltdown" on stage:

"It was very tense back there. They locked us in a room for about six hours. [Pause] I won't say "locked." But I didn't want to hang out in the hallway with everybody's entourage. I felt like a rat in a cage. It was a confined space with a lot of weird people around, people we didn't know wandering in and out [of the dressing room]."

I have a hard time really seeing this as a meltdown. He just seemed really upset andperhapsrightly so or not but it seemed this was blown out of proportion a bit. You can re-watch it here if you need a refresher. It was at the point Billie decided he need to seek help.

Excited to see a great band out perfroming again after this. Read the full article here.

Green Day is perfroming at South By Southwest later this month.
