Davey Havok of AFI is part of the Straight Edge scene and a raving vegan.  
He abstains from alcohol, drugs, and animal products.

I love AFI, but that life sounds a bit boring

I read this book called Our band could be your life that said Henry Rollins did drugs a few times only because Greg Ginn did it when they were in Black Flag.

Maybe I’ll agree with you on animal products, but there are a lot of people out here that don’t do drugs or alcohol and are not bored.

Damn stoners, thinking the whole world should just get high, otherwise they’re just so\* square, maaan\*.

Not saying that. Just the constant preaching about PETA and Straight Edge is tedious and boring, IMHO.
