    Default Barenaked Ladies reuniting for one night

    http://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.4586823?__tw...mpression=true

    It's been nine years since Steven Page abruptly left the Barenaked Ladies. He hasn't been in the same room with the remaining band members since. They haven't spoken until recently and, even then, primarily by text. Yet on Sunday, they'll reunite for a one-time performance at the Juno Awards.

    So what's going to happen?

    "Fist fight," suggests Tyler Stewart, the drummer known for his quick wit. "I've mostly been sexting with Steve, which really takes a lot of the pressure off the real stuff."

    Jokes aside, there is the potential for awkwardness as the original group is inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, 30 years after Page and Ed Robertson formed the BNL while playing in their parents' basements.

    Really looking forward to the Juno's this year. I think BNL will perform and not miss a beat. I'm not a huge fan but it's a shame the falling out Page had with the band. But of course, what I am most looking forward to is the tribute the award show has prepared for Gord Downie. It's sure to be a tear jerker.

    If I am not mistaken, and this is just me not going and googling, I am pretty sure it was Page who got caught with coke or something like that.

    From memory, Page was caught with a tiny amount of coke along with some gal in Buffalo about 10 years ago. But I don't think he went to jail for it. I think he was sent to drug treatment and told to behave...

    My memory is telling me Page was taken in by police for cocaine possession which prompted the band to kick him out of the group. I believe he also had a gig lined up with The Muppets and they canned him too.
