He did...in Roadshow, BUT...it's Geddy, not Alex. ![]() I have my doubts that they have ever done anything worse than smoke a little pot here and there. I have an interview with Geddy in a magazine somewhere where he basically says that. I've never been into smoking pot, but I know a lot of people who do...and they are still productive members of society, good people, good parents, etc. |
Theyve mentioned acid before. There's no way I can find the interview after all these years, but Im 100% certain they talked about it and did it.

“See I think drugs have done some good things for us, I really do, and if you don't believe drugs have done good things for us, do me a favor: go home tonight and take all your albums, all your tapes, and all your cds and burn 'em. 'cause you know the musicians who made all that great music that's enhanced your lives throughout the years.... rrrrrrrrreal f**kin high on drugs. Bill Hicks |
As heard on Tool's "Third Eye"

I thought it was funny when I first heard it.
And yes, obviously Rush, like nearly all other musicians of that era dabbled in drugs.
And then they matured, and have since cleaned up their act. Can't think of a single drug any of them does anymore.

I'd say it's a fair bet that Alex smoked as recently as 2002. |

He smokes cigs and seems like he drinks quite a bit, no way to know about weed though. Wouldnt surprise me at all though.

People are just curious. Even though they've admitted to doing drugs, Rush has this squeaky clean image because aside from Alex in all these years they really haven't gotten into any major drama or trouble, which I guess is unusual for a rock band coming out of the 70s, and probably a big part of why they are still together.
Just proof that they never let it take control or interfere with the band. I dont know how anyone could think they werent on anything listening to stuff like CoS. Didnt Geddy talk about them being on drugs during the writing of that album? I remember this in a pretty recent interview, was it mentioned in the movie?
