Barenaked Ladies Singer in the Clear

November 3rd, 2008 by Evan


Barenaked Ladies’ singer and guitarist Steven Page could get in the clear of drug charges if he stays away from the white snortable stuff for six months. Last week, in court in upstate New York, the musician had his felony cocaine possession hacked down to a misdemeanor. He was also granted something called “an adjournment in contemplation of dismissal” which means that the misdemeanor drug rap he’s still facing can get dismissed all together if he stays out of trouble for six months. And I thought only the Brits were this easy on their drug addicts. This is why people should stop wondering how Amy Winehouse came about being our beloved crackie.

Barenaked Bad Timing

Define bad timing and you have the Barenaked Ladies right under the definition. The band’s front man Steven page and the rest of the group are part of the Disney Block Party tour this summer. They’re going to be playing for families in the US in July to August. According to the band’s bio on the tour’s website, the Barenaked Ladies released a kids’ album in May 2008. A rock and roll band that makes kiddie album – you don’t see much of that. There’s no word on whether or not Disney will cut the band from the tour in light of Steven’s drug bust. They should though.
