Drone Halts Green Day Concert
Green Day were rushed off stage during their 9/4 concert in Detroit after a drone was spotted flying overhead. The band was playing “Longview” approximately 20 minutes into the concert, when a stagehand ushered Billie Joe Armstrong and company to the back of the stage.
“There was an individual that flew a drone into Comerica Park, so Green Day was taken off stage,” Detroit Police Department spokesman Cpl. Dan Donakowski said in a statement. “Shortly after that, they went back on stage to perform. DPD located this individual outside of Comerica Park. He is being detained pending further investigation.”
Following a ten-minute delay Green Day returned.
Later in the show, Armstrong told the audience of 35,000 “there ain’t no motherfucker that’s gonna stop us, I’ll tell you that.”
