It was sort of quaint when Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger explained how his Canadian alternative rock band got its name (the story involves his brother giving five cents change at Starbucks). But in a recent interview with Playboy, he went a little far in disclosing intimate details of his own life -- namely, some seriously questionable pursuits during his youth.The 33-year-old rocker must have been in the mood to share, as he not only spoke candidly about his early days pushing drugs -- as he put it, "I had to subsidize the income somehow" -- but also told a tale involving, well, pleasuring himself publicly for a case of beer. We won't go into the lurid details here, but he did offer what might be called an explanation: "I was 14 and much more flexible at the time ... I really wanted that case of beer."
