From the 'Bands these Days Anymore' thread in General Discussion about Green Day's Billy Joe Armstrong getting kicked off a flight for saggy pants:

"Basically, all the passengers were already seated, we were ready to go, they had already told us to start to turn our cellphones off," she said.
[The producer] said that Armstrong was approached by a flight attendant and told to pull his pants up. Armstrong initially dismissed the request, asking, "Don't you have better things to do then worry about that?" When the flight attendant repeated the request and threatened to have Armstrong removed from the plane, Armstrong relied "I'm just trying to get to my f**king seat."


Southwest has apologized and promised to reach out to Mr. Armstrong for more details.
