can someone please fill me in on what he did? 

There’s a huge thread for it somewhere I am not sure where. I think from around Christmas time last year. Maybe if someone remembers where they can link it. He just needs to go. It’s time. Fans who actually care about ethics and role models and safety of exes in breakups (good or bad) and hoping Green Day aren’t hypocrites won’t forget. His time in the band should have been up last year. It went on too long and it was very public. There should have at least been termination of employment based on those actions.

I don’t want to clog up this thread with the bad actions of Jeff Matika but I also want it noted that they are not forgotten.

That’s not true. They played 2 shows in 2003 and opened up for Green Day a few times on the AI tour

Billie should be fired as well from Green Day since he literally financially supports a man who murdered a woman and beats women for over 20 years now 🤷‍♂️ 
 

anytime you buy a copy of Insomniac overseas or any copies of Shenanigans you literally put money into a woman murderer/beater pockets

The song “I Want To Be On TV” which appears on the Japanese version of Insomniac the single for Geek Stink Breath and all copies of Shenanigans is written by  Sam McBride of the band Fang 

Sam along with starting Fang was a pimp and drug dealer also he killed his girlfriend when he thought she was promoting a rival drug dealer over him bashed her head in he was in prison until late 90’s 

since then he has started a charity foundation for battered women which Billie donates to (according to Sam who credits Billie for putting money on his prison books and saving his life)

If we could all see the good in people like Billie Joe what a better world this would be.

Oh Sam has deft seem to cleaned up his life and that’s great all I’m saying is if we are supposed to demand Jeff to be fired for a stupid dumb and bad mistake that he has apologized for and judge him forever on that then all needs to be judged as well

I agree and I think the judgement is really too much. Having said that, I do not want him back in Green Day. Longshot’s fine w me though. Billie knows a lot more about the situation than we do, absolutely no doubt.

But those were Jeff’s own actions and you seem to want to hold Billie responsible for Sam’s.  And Jeff didn’t exactly apologize, the harassment continued offline.

Because if we are supposed to demand Billie to fire Jeff for what he did “for the safety of women” then Billie needs to be held to the same account as he literally supported a man who murdered a woman and didn’t express regret until years after release (which is great he’s changed I’m all for second chances and forgiveness) sorry but beating women pimping women and killing a woman is much worse than anything Jeff did...

it seems y’all want Billie to not support Jeff but have no concern that Billie supported/supports a man who did WAYYYY more harmful shit to women 

 

basically my argument is you can’t be mad at one and overlook another person 

Jeff made a mistake need to move on everyone deserves a second chance no one has ever gone without making a mistake

Why is it Billie seems to like his microphone to be low during the Longshot shows? Watching someone’s video on FB the music sounds good but can barely hear the vocals

2. Is that a beer in BJ's hand😋

Billie definitely enjoys playing with Longshot and Longshot songs over GD shows and material.

Perhaps one is a job & the other is fun.
