My favorite detail is that this arrest comes on the heels of the band releasing its first kid's CD called "Snacktime."

Hey kids, it's "smacktime."

I guess he answered the question to "If I Had a Million Dollars".

Shoebox of li-yi-yi-ies.

I'm sorry to see this; I like those wacky Canadians.

I remember when I was around the age of 14, my buddy ask me if I wanted to go see Bare Naked Ladies. I, of course, was like "hell yeah". To my suprise, they were all dudes, but entertaining none the less.

I saw them last winter up at Ohio State. I'm not really a big fan...in fact the only reason we went was to see the opener Mike Doughty who my girlfriend loves (this was her birthday weekend so I surprised her with tickets). They weren't half bad though. Entertaining on stage and basically played a greatest hits set with some of their newer tunes sprinkled in. I knew most of the songs from the 1990's radio play so I enjoyed it.

I always liked the other singer better though.

Yeah, their stage presence is great. I stopped seeing them when they got big enough to play arenas as a lot of the banter and audience reaction stuff got toned down.

I've been a casual BNL fan for a while, but really got into them in the last year.

I usually am about 10-15 years behind.

While he's not an attractive male by any stretch of the imagination, you'd think a guy in a successful band like BNL could score some better looking tail...

Rockers doing coke? Call out the National Guard! Ridiculous.
