Green Day Cancel 2012 Tour Dates, Move Album Release

Green Day has cancelled tour dates that were scheduled for the remainder of 2012 and postponed dates for the months of January and February 2013.  New dates for these rescheduled shows will be announced shortly and previously purchased tickets will be honored on the new dates. 
 
Green Day bassist, Mike Dirnt, stated, “Obviously the timing for this isn’t ideal, but Billie Joe’s well-being is our main concern. We are happy to say that Billie Joe is doing well, and we want to thank you all for the outpouring of support and well wishes that we have received, and we can’t wait to see you all again soon.” Lead singer, Billie Joe Armstrong, has been in rehab for substance abuse since September, after an expletive-ladened outburst during the I Heart Music Festival.
 
Green Day also announced they would move up the release date of Green Day ¡Tré! to December 11, 2012 from its original date of January 15, 2013.
 
“We feel bad we have to delay our tour, so to make up for it we want to give our fans the music earlier than we had planned,” said Tré Cool.  “If we couldn’t be there to play it for you live, the least we could do was give you the next best thing.”
