Add Green Day to the list of Raiders fans angered by the team's move to Las Vegas.

The band, who hail from the Bay Area, made their feelings known while performing in Detroit on Monday night.

"We come from the 'Detroit of California' - only we no longer have a football team," lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong told the crowd at Joe Louis Arena, according to Billboard's Gary Graff.

Armstrong then shouted 'F--- Las Vegas" and mumbled something about "goddamn pumpkin pie hair" before declaring, "I'm rooting for the Lions from now on!"
