I do agree that they deserve privacy, everybody does............but unfortunately thats not the way it works.
Society is basically CHOCK full of stereotypes and what, not.......and thats pretty much where a lotta the "oh, Raine does drugs" and blah blah blah comes from. I don't think Raine or any of the band takes fan nonesense like this at all as serious as you're making it out to be.

I agree. I was hoping the whole raine impregnating himself and whatnot would let people know i'm joking, but you're right, as pissed off as i am at raine I shouldnt be turning other people off to the band. sorry

oh and if we were talking about whether they are married or not or about girlfriends they've had or have, that all would be hunky dorry. Fairly hypocritical don't you think?

Hypocritical? I'd sure like to know where I've made any posts about the state of any member's relationships with their significant others. If anything we shouldn't be worrying about that stuff either.

See the "Bye Bye Duncan" thread... one of many others where CM'ers discuss such things.

You know what's weird...?

I made a topic called "OLP and Drugs" a long time ago. :freak:

Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down
, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

I wouldn't be surprised if I knew they smoked pot every once in a while... but I don't think they do that. Probably just alcohol...

Cheers.

the SUPERSKUNK story. I kidded to Raine about saving some the next time he has it. SO many people were up in arms about that interview post. He was so angry about that interview. Both him and Steve told me how the guy fabricated the story and snuck backstage./ SO as far as smoking POt once in awhile I say that might be true, as for superskunk according to Raine it is a madeup fabrication and you shouldn't believe everyting you read. . I told him I didn't care either way(which I don't), that I didn't judge him and i still respected him.

BTW, POT is now legal in Canada for medical treatments.

well, on the subject of drugs, just my two cents and i couldnt give a shit either way.

While i was first listening to the album Naveed, and really getting a feel for what it was about and how I related to it, I was also immersing (sp?) myself in the counter-culture of the sixties, namely One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest and the merry pranksters, that type of thing, for a project. Because I was really only thinking about those two things at the time, I tend to really relate Naveed to what the counter-culture was all about; drugs, drugs and LSD. Now whenever I listen to Neon Crossing and Under Zenith especially, i relate it to OFOTCN and think of what the book was about: drugs. Through very weird relations and that type of thing, to me, the two seem to be very related, Naveed and OFOTCN. Because of that, I tend to relate that album, and those two songs in particular, to drugs. Makes me think that theres a possiblity someone related to making that album was on drugs or influenced by something along those lines. But then again, it could just be my crazy interpretation of the songs and have no relation to real life. I'm not saying this because I care if olp is on drugs or not, but because I am explaining what those songs mean to me.

im sure you didnt actually read that, and if you did...wow, thumbs up to you. im not even sure i could sit through that...

he then hired bob rock and wrote the song "innocent"
and the world hasn't been the same since that

so kids. don't do drugs.

too bad he wrote innocent before he met bob rock.

i sat through that. maybe thats just because i'm bored and i force myself to read every word in each topic.

anyways, does anybody actually know for a fact that raine does drugs?

:lol: yeah, well so am i but that doesn't count.
And whoever said raine traded tickets for some pot is just crazy. i doubt raine would sink that low just before a show and especially out in the open enough for someone else to see. he does seem a bit weird live though... :uh:
