danc Posted July 17, 2008 Report Posted July 17, 2008 I'd probably be looking for the best lawyer money can buy. If my name was Steven Page. Barenaked Ladies front man charged
Mattones Posted July 17, 2008 Report Posted July 17, 2008 haha I heard about that. Those guys always seemed pretty clean and kids could look up to them. But if I had a Million Dollars Id be buying myself a Green Lamborghini Murcielago P
Beats Posted July 17, 2008 Report Posted July 17, 2008 (edited) Who cares? The article alone doesn't really make any sense as to how it all came about. It's probably just a tiny amount that a fine would deal with. Well a fine and perhaps some weekend slammer duty in Canada, but in the States, it could be just about anything. They have the most retarded drug laws. Anyway, was reading the user comments under the article and read, "so the police noticed something suspicious about the apartment...looked into the window and saw 3 people sitting around the a table...don't they have anything better to do? Everyone that bakes at home should be careful specially if your kitchen has a window. Make sure that the flour is not all over your counter or maybe the police might bust in thinking something suspicious is going on...." "...But not real cocaine, that's cruel" <-- that's great. I'm sure some reporter somewhere got at least a few more facts before writing an article like this one. Edited July 17, 2008 by Beats
John Bacon Posted July 17, 2008 Report Posted July 17, 2008 That reminds me of the Canada Day weekend when I pulled into the marina for gas. I was informed that I had just missed the Bare Naked Ladies. My ears perked up and I thought, "Wow, that's cool, I wonder which way they went. Then, much to my dissapointment, I realized that he was referring to the band. Oh well, at least I did catch a couple of pike.
danc Posted July 17, 2008 Author Report Posted July 17, 2008 But if I had a Million Dollars Id be buying myself a Green Lamborghini Murcielago P I'd definitely eat more Kraft dinner if I had a million dollars.
Moosebunk Posted July 17, 2008 Report Posted July 17, 2008 Who hasn't been busted for drugs... C'mon. At 38 he should have grown up a wee bit by now though. That cocaine is such a gateway drug anyway... his age you'd think he'd have graduated to something more hardcore.
ccmtcanada Posted July 17, 2008 Report Posted July 17, 2008 Heard more details this morning on 680 news. Apparently, court documents say that he admitted to using cocaine....and that he rollled up a Canadian bill to snort it. They also did find some on him. I doubt he'll get the 15 yrs maximum that the charges hold, but it'll seriously put a dent into any US tour if the conviction goes through.
GBW Posted July 17, 2008 Report Posted July 17, 2008 Ahhh, so now I know why the kids song says (7 ate 9) he was high and had the munchies! LOL @ Cliff
BITEME Posted July 17, 2008 Report Posted July 17, 2008 If I had a million dollars I'd buy one way glass!!!!!
Reef Runner Posted July 17, 2008 Report Posted July 17, 2008 I couldn't care less about the charges or Mr. Page's habits. I would be concerned about the process of search and seizure though. It is the US however.
Headhunter Posted July 17, 2008 Report Posted July 17, 2008 I have only one personal concern regarding this situation... a very dear friend of mine, a friend I've been fortunate enough to have for the better part of 43 years is employed by the group as their drum tech and essentially percussionist as well as on stage manager. He has worked very hard and traveled many miles to secure stable employment in his industry of choice (music) and this situation could put his livelihood in jeopardy. I am not a fan of the band or their music, but I feel for my friend and hope that this matter is cleared up quickly and his family can continue to enjoy a stable and profitable income. HH

highdrifter Posted July 17, 2008 Report Posted July 17, 2008 Last I heard they had more of a fan base in the US... Makes sense that he'd be caught there rather than here. That $10000 bail he posted must make him wanna sing, "wish I had 10 grand, I'd post bail.." Who gives a flying hoot though anyway?!! HAHAAH HD
Whopper Posted July 17, 2008 Report Posted July 17, 2008 I'd definitely eat more Kraft dinner if I had a million dollars. LOL Dan I'd probably move to Thunder Bay and eat macaroni's with ya
Baptiste Posted July 17, 2008 Report Posted July 17, 2008 The other frontman 'Ed' is my neighbour at Baptiste Lake. A very nice guy and the consummate family man.

Tarzan's Jane Posted July 18, 2008 Report Posted July 18, 2008 Was recently playing cards with some people...and curious me noticed what looked like a cool looking condom in a wallet...clear plastic with black spades...so I asked if I could see the condom...he says sure...turns out it was a little sachet of 'cocaine'...explains the 'dark nothingness in his eyes'....I gotta stop asking questions
