Okay, I have to mention something about it. Am I the only one amazed that Barenaked Ladies' frontman Steven Page was arrested for cocaine possession? Now the marijuana doesn't surprise me, but the coke? And what the hell's up with being in a shady apartment in upsate New York? At least have the decency to be caught snorting it off some stripper's ass like a real rock star! That's how Axl would do it. [...]
With an astounding 4,160 episodes over 38 seasons, children everywhere are still managing to find their way to Sesame Street. First hitting the airwaves in 1969, Sesame Street is still going strong with season 39 coming your way August 11th with a swack of celebrity guest stars lined up including Jack Black, Feist, Will Arnett(!), David Beckham, Jessica Alba, and more. There have been hundreds of Sesame Street songs over the years, but just a handful of them are continually introduced to new generations of children (uh, don't quote me on that). I've chosen a bunch that [...]
Awhile back, I think, I mentioned a news story in which David Lee Roth was pulled over driving recklessly due to a nut allergy that had been inflamed. (I kid you not!!) It turns out that it was this crazy David Kuntz guy! It seems like he's, you know, a little crazy. Steven Page was arrested for, like, running around cocaine and stuff. What the hell?
Quirky-dull Canadian pop act the Barenaked Ladies has become somewhat well-known over the last decade and a half—but I doubt anyone would have guessed that a dark side lurked under their squeaky-clean exterior. Steven Page, the less Rappy Wordinghood of the band's two singers, was arrested on Friday for possession of a controlled substance in Syracuse, N.Y. Now, if you're like me, your immediate assumption is that Steven got caught with a recreational amount of marijuana. This is true, but not the whole story: He was also found with two women and a significant amount [...]
Filed under: News , Holy Hell Spinner.com : There are many musicians for whom a drug charge would barely raise an eyebrow, but Barenaked Ladies frontman Steven Page's clean-cut ways hardly fit the profile of a badass blow boy. While the Barenakeds' recent children's record, 'Snacktime,'... Read more
If you ever wondered why Barenaked Ladies singer Steven Page is able to sing so fast, we may have just figured it out. According to Yahoo! he and two women (Go Steven!) were found by Police in a Fayetteville, New York apartment with cocaine after finding a suspicious car out front with a door left open. He was also charged with possession of marijuana, which explains the lyric "Chickity China the Chinese Chicken, have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin'." Page was released on $10,000 bond and is due back in [...]

Steven Page from the Barenaked Ladies has been arrested in Syracuse. We'll allow you to add your own 'crimes against music' joke before moving on. Page was apparently charged with fourth degree criminal drug possession offences. fourth degree ? What's that, exactly? Thinking about going out to score? This is the most perfect time for the band to be promoting their album for kids.
Restons sur la terre canadienne avec Barenaked Ladies un groupe qui s'est fait une place sur la planète pop rock en enchaînant les albums à grosses ventes en chantant des titres légers et pleins d'humour. Ce Snacktime! en est rempli et le moment passé à écouter les 24 titres est un pur bonheur. Exemple avec The Ninjas . Barenaked Ladies [...]
Sadly, living in NYC, I don't drive anymore, but I still have fond memories of road trips past. [ Get Out the Map - Indigo Girls ] My friend zephre and I try to go on a road trip every year. This requires a stack of CDs. As required by the Lesbian Charter, I own a bunch of Indigo Girls CDs. A few years ago when we drove from NYC to Houston, [...]
It's hard not to love the Barenaked Ladies . I know, I know, they're mainstream to the extreme, but their zaniness is contagious. Keep them as your guilty pleasure if you will, but I'll be up front with my enjoyment of their music. That being said, I was excited to check out their newest album, Snacktime! , which came out earlier this month. It's billed as a children's album, but as with many Disney movies, there's plenty here for listeners of all ages. Take Raisins for example which opens with; Raisins come from grapes / [...]
There are albums in everyone's past that have a meaning beyond the music they hold. They are albums that were ingrained into our souls thanks to a moment in our lives or a person that impacted us or just because they became the words we lived by. It's not so much about the music as it is what we associate it with that becomes important. Stunt is one of those albums for me. You might laugh it at
First off, I must introduce all of you to Thurl Ravenscroft , the patron saint of She'll Grow Back. That's him, right there to the right. He's the original voice of Tony The Tiger, and the singer of "You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch" (not Boris Karloff, as so many people assume). During his 70-year career, he also did quite a bit of work with Disney . He voiced characters for The Enchanted Tiki Room, Pirates of the Caribbean, narrated The Disneyland Railroad, and sang lead on this song, "Grim Grinning Ghosts". This song [...]
The Good: The Instruments - "Ode to the Sea"; It's not often that we get to post news from Jeff Mangum, so when we get the chance we're gonna take it. Right here is a track that has backing vocals from the Neutral Milk Hotel legend, but surprisingly it's not Mangum's presence that makes this such a hauntingly beautiful track. Instead it's the rest of the Instruments, namely Heather McIntosh, who
Pitchfork, never disappointing, got the inside scoop on a live performance by Vampire Weekend at some exclusive room at their alma mater, Columbia University. We previously posted on Adele, and now she is birthing a U.S. tour [not implying a causal relationship] (MP3: Cold Shoulder) Peter, of the whistlin' dixies PeterBjornandJohn, stopped into the Daytrotter studios to [...]
I'm used to working flat-out all day and my body has become accustomed to this. But over the last two weeks business has been a little erratic - slow days followed by manic days - and I don't seem to be able to adjust to the changing pace. The result is that I am sooooooo [...]
[MP3] Barenaked Ladies - Fight The Power Never would I have predicted the day to come where Dan Aykroyd, and his prosethically enhanced cranium nonetheless, would indirectly lead me to a song that I would've probably never discovered otherwise. Without Coneheads needing a soundtrack , Barneaked Ladies may have never been approached about doing a cover of the Public Enemy hit "Fight The Power". Although the acclaimed #9 rap song of all time loses a little bit of it's raw edge in the process, the [...]
"You get your Ph.D. How happy you will be When you get a job at Wendy's And are honored with employee of the month...." -Barenaked Ladies - "Never Is Enough" If just one more person gives me a skeptical, condescending or pitying look when I tell them that we're moving to Australia without a car ...
As a culture vulture, I have a particular fondness for the iconography of Hip Hop and Hardcore Rap; as a fan of trope and politic, I've always admired the complex rhyme and rhythm they bring to the table. But I never really made a connection with hardcore rap as a cultural form. I'm an outsider on the streets; I can appreciate their gritty reality only as a sociologist can appreciate the poverty dynamic of his cityscape under the microscope. Though a six month stint in Boston's inner city as a member of [...]
As a geneticist I knew, intellectually, that my son would be 50% identical to me at the DNA level. What I didn't realize was what that meant in real life - that I would look at him and often see myself looking back. It is not like a mirror because ...
