Not sure if it was just saving face, but isn't there an MCA quote about a fan saying something like "I smoked angel dust because of you!" and he was like "We never smoked dust, it was a joke..."

Also that link to the stage show... I think Mike just threw in "angel dust laced weed" as a joke to explain why he seemed so hostile in the video. They've been pretty open about talking about mushrooms and weed and there are enough LSD references that it seems pretty obvious Yauch at least was experimenting with that. Adrock also seems high as hell in a lot of CYH era interviews, not sure if he just smoked a bunch of weed or if he was on something stronger.

Anyway... it seems unlikely they were big time hardcore drug users considering they managed to keep their shit together somewhat. If they ever had a burnout phase they kept it pretty well hidden.

I'm also glad they never became like a "drug band" with marijuana leaf merch and shit like that. Corny as hell IMO.
