Mr. Wooky Caught Stealing Nickelback Drummer’s Identity

Port St. Lucie Police

A Florida man has been accused of stealing Nickelback drummer Daniel Adair's identity. 45-year-old Lee Howard Koenig -- who goes by the name "Mr. Wooky" on a Facebook page, where he claims to have played alongside the Beach Boys, Billy Joel, and the SNL band -- was arrested Tuesday by Port St. Lucie police. Koenig purchased $25,000 in microphones under Adair's name, and had the order mailed to an address in Florida. According to the New York Daily News, a Nickelback rep reached out to Adair to confirm whether or not he ordered the mics; when Adair said he hadn't, police were able to trace the order back to Koenig's IP address. Nickelback has yet to comment on the incident.
