Green Day's Billie Joe arrested for indecent exposure (November 1995)


Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong was charged and arrested for 'Indecent Exposure' after a show at The Mecca in Milwaukee, WI on November 21, 1995 (other sites say it happened on 11/21/96 but they got the year wrong).

Here is a clip from "MTV News: The Week in Rock" in which Kurt Loder reports on the arrest. Billie Joe supposedly pulled his pants down and mooned the audience and the Milwaukee police arrested and charged him with Indecent Exposure after the show. He bailed out that night for $111 but forfeited that money when he didn't appear for a 9am appointment the next morning. Drummer Tre Cool is interviewed over the phone about the charge against Billie Joe and says that it only happened because the cops were upset that Green Day wouldn't hang out with them backstage.

Before the incident, MTV caught up with Green Day at the Cobo Arena in Detroit, MI on November 16, 1995. They were interviewed on topics such as if touring gets boring for them, how Billie Joe and Tre Cool are new fathers, playing bigger venues, Ticketmaster and Pearl Jam, the remainder of their Insomniac Tour and what they do on their days off.

So people out there. There were hundreds, if not thousands, of you at that 11/21/95 Green Day concert at The Mecca in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Please show yourselves and let us know if Billie Joe showed his ass or not. We're confused why this story has some sketchy details and wrong dates online...

Probably, since he did it pretty often back then.

  1. I was at that show in Milwaukee. Billie Joe did briefly moon the audience. It all happened so fast. It was unbelievable that he actually got arrested!

  2. Billie joe still moons the audience a lot, and he played shows naked a lot back then, it doesn't surprise me at all.
