Not that there's anything wrong with that.
Barenaked Ladies singer arrested in New York

NEW YORK - Barenaked Ladies singer Steven Page has been arrested in New York and charged with possession of cocaine.
Police in Syracuse, N.Y. said Page was arrested Friday along with two American women after police noticed something suspicious in an apartment in the village of Fayetteville.
"As (the officers) approached the apartment they saw people in the window sitting at a table and it looked like they were engaged in something. There was a white capsule and a white powdery substance that later tested positive for cocaine." said Capt. Bill Bleyle with the Manlius Police Department in New York State.

Font:****Page, 38, is charged with possession of a controlled substance. Police said Page was released on $10,000 bail.
Bleyle said a further search of the apartment turned up more cocaine and some marijuana. However, he said the charges in connection with Page only related to the cocaine.
Page's manager, Terry McBride, said he cannot comment while the matter is before the courts, but added he's confident his client will be cleared of all charges.
Until then, said McBride, it's "business as usual for the Barenaked Ladies." |

Sounds like a real genius. "Hey, let's do all this coke in front of the window where anyone who walks by can see us." |

I just taught my kids the song "If I had a $1,000,000".
I don't recall the lyrics making any mention of purchasing coke. Maybe they forgot to mention it. |

The sad thing is they've just embarked on a new career creating educational children's music. Not a great role model. |

I paid something like $40 to see them on Canada day some years ago. Then they went down to the states and gave a huge free concert in Boston for Independence day.
Jerks. |

Ha. I went to see the new batman movie today at Paramount Theatre in DT Toronto (now called the Scotiabank No Loads Mutual Fund Free Chequeing Theatre). Before the flick they have an ad with the BNL who was just busted. He's showing how to make popcorn by mixing in garlic powder. People were shouting "snort it! snort it!"
Bad timing. |

The article made it sound more like the cop just happened to be walking by and noticed them without being called. |
