As on-the-road misbehavior went , it was pretty tame. On tour in Seattle in the spring of 1972, Jeff Forehan and three of his shaggy-haired bandmates got ahold of some weed. Squeezing into a hotel bathroom, the pop singers happily toked up, using the ceiling fan to suck up the smoke and ensure they weren't caught. Except they were — by some of their other bandmates, no less. The next thing they knew, Forehan and his fellow performers in the band — the Young Americans — were having what he calls "a little confrontation" with the head of the group. Alerted to their secret stash, he told them they had to go straight to their rooms after each night's show; one singer who objected was soon kicked off the tour. "I say this with all due respect, but some of the other kids in the group were cut from a different cloth, a bit more squeaky-clean," Forehan recalls. "What we did pissed off a lot of them."
