NICKELBACK - KROEGER: 'I USED TO DEAL DRUGS'

KROEGER: 'I USED TO DEAL DRUGS'

Canadian rocker CHAD KROEGER subsidised his income dealing drugs before finding fame in NICKELBACK. The 33-year-old fell on tough times growing up in Hanna, Alberta and so decided to make some money selling cannabis and hallucinogenic magic mushrooms. He tells Playboy magazine, "I sold a little weed here, some mushrooms there. I had to subsidise the income somehow. "I knew a lot of people who had weed, and a lot of people on the oil rigs needed weed. I could get it. That seemed like a no-brainer."
