out but dont know why. CANNOT have been because of his talent - he's the

friend of mine has a sister who lives in NYC. she's a musician and jammed
with matt on bongos once. they talked about jeff (after he had died) and he
became very upset - i'm pretty sure he didnt leave of his own accord.

Great musician... saw him at the Big Day Out this year with Beth Orton and
a few years back with Jeff. The sort of drummer you would kill to have in
your band. That light touch and sense of space.
On the last gig of the Australian tour prior to Matt's depature, Jeff
apparently announced his departure and said something like "I hope it
wasn't something I said" during the gig.
One of my housemates bears a striking resemblance to Matt actually.
Bizarre trivia for the day. ;-)
See ya,
Steve.

Erk, that's an ugly rumour. When I saw Matt with Beth at the BDO this year
he was out in the crowd dancing along with the band that followed them on
that stage, Ozomatli. Looked like a pretty clean cut happy sorta guy.
See ya,
Steve.

backstage if he disliked her! I have never read about them not getting on
and really - would he leave the band just cos he didnt like the boss's
mother?
so it was a case of they took heroin, fell out with Mary and Jeff said
something to upset him so he left .... LOL! ( stranger things have happened
I suppose) maybe he got sick of the sight of Jeffs arse all the time WHO
KNOWS?
Matty if you're reading tell us!! Before anymore ugly rumours start...
perhaps it was just the old adage of "artistic differences"

Matt Johnson left Jeff's band in early 1996, at the last Australian show
(which somebody quoted in this thread). Eric Eidel was Jeff's next
(known) drummer. Parker joined Jeff's band only a few months before
Jeff's death.

Beth Orton wasn't until about a year and a half after Jeff died. As far
as I know and what I've heard through interviews I've conducted, Matt
did not quit Jeff's band to go work with another musician.
Matt worked with -- and continues to work with -- several people
concurrently after Jeff's death. The first "notable" recording was with
Duncan Sheik. Beth Orton was after Duncan Sheik.

Matt left Jeff's band because he wanted and needed to leave the band at
that time. Just because it was of Matt's own accord doesn't mean that
Matt can't be sad about Jeff.

The amount of conjecture about Matt's leaving Jeff's band is simply
astounding.

Unfortunately this is the way rumours either start or are propagated.
Also correct on the point that he worked with Duncan Sheik prior to
Beth Orton.

Thanks for the caps Gayle... agenda anyone?
Others have suggested the MG referred to was Grondahl anyway.
Since his death MG (not Grondahl) has been involved in creative work
though... _creating_ a role for herself.
See ya,
Steve.
Fender
for that !!!!!! They even didn't see MG that often !!! How can you believe
that ?????

wanted to have all power over Jeff's work (after he had died ofcourse),
partly because her artistic career never took flight.
and then it says that it says enough that Matt doesn't want to have
anything to do with her. (from the Volkskrant 11 May 2000)
So I was wrong, I guess this has nothing to do with the situation in 1997,

question. He said he left because of "drug use" within the band... being
the gentlemen he is, he didn't specify who exactly was to blame for the
abuse. Really doesn't matter though does it!! I don't think this is the
"only" reason he left -who knows what someone goes through unless you walk
in their shoes.
