Green Day has shared a statement after they had to pause a concert in Detroit due to a “safety issue.”

On Wednesday night, the band ran offstage during a performance of their hit song “Longview” after receiving signals from crew members, per Detroit Free Press. The video screens on stage soon read the message: “SHOW PAUSE: PLEASE, STANDBY FOR DETAILS.”

The rock group returned approximately 10 minutes later but didn’t explain to the audience why they had rushed off stage. However, frontman Billie Joe Armstrong did ask: “How you guys doing? Everybody OK?” before requesting that concertgoers put their phones away: “Let’s be here, right now.”

While they didn’t elaborate on what happened during the show, the band has since shared a statement to their story about what transpired.

Regalrumination.com emailed a spokesperson for the band for comment on Thursday outside of normal business hours.

“Detroit! Sorry for the delay in the show tonight, stadium security had us clear the stage while they dealt with a potential safety issue. DPD quickly resolved the situation, and we were able to continue. Thanks for understanding,” the statement read.

According to Detroit police, they detained a person who was suspected of flying a drone over Comerica Park during Green Day’s gig.

“There was an individual that flew a drone into Comerica Park, and because of that, Green Day was taken off the stage. DPD did locate the individual. He is being detained pending further investigation,” Detroit Police Department spokesperson Cpl. Dan Donakowski told the Detroit Free Press.

When contacted by Regalrumination.com via email Thursday, the Detroit Police Department said there was “Nothing new to report at this time.”

The Detroit show was part of the band’s Saviors Tour, which began in May 2024 in Spain. The tour celebrates the 30th anniversary of Dookie and the 20th anniversary of American Idiot, two of Green Day’s landmark albums.

The comedian said her decision to pose with the head , so she shared her support for Armstrong on social media.

Griffin posted a photo of the Green Day singer holding the mask of Trump to X (formerly ) on August 1: “I see you @GreenDay & @billiejoe.”

The comedian also shared the same photo on Instagram but with a different caption: “Yknow, i’ve always liked @greenday & @billiejoearmstrong.”

The main criticism from people is that this move from Armstrong came a little more than a fortnight after the assassination attempt made against Trump on July 13.
