TODD RUNDGREN, A TRUE CANNABINAUT

The LEGENDARY MUSICIAN PARTNERS WITH MICHIGAN-BASED CHEEF CANNABIS ON TWO EXCLUSIVE AND LIMITED-EDITION "HELLO, IT'S W**D" STRAINS

RUNDGREN TO MAKE IN-STORE APPEARANCES AT "HOUSE OF DANK" DISPENSARIES IN ANN ARBOR/YPSILANTI (NOVEMBER 21) AND GRAND RAPIDS (NOVEMBER 23) AROUND HIS TWO LOCAL TOUR DATES WITH DARYL HALL (NOV 21 IN ANN ARBOR AT THE MICHIGAN THEATER AND NOV 23 IN GRAND RAPIDS AT DEVOS HALL)

Todd Rundgren has announced an official partnership with Michigan-based Cheef Cannabis, who will produce two limited-edition "Hello It's W**d" strains, available initially as both flower bags and pre-roll packages: Michigan Cookies and Dosi Mintz (see descriptions below). To celebrate his teaming with Cheef, the recent Hall of Famer will also make in-store appearances at two Michigan "House Of Dank'' dispensaries that will begin carrying the strains later this month. Around Rundgren's Michigan tour dates on his lauded year-long US run with Daryl Hall, he will stop by the Ann Arbor-area Ypsilanti, MI location on November 21 before a Grand Rapids appearance on November 23 (both will take place at noon local time).

Todd fans can purchase his official strains at either in-store appearance and, following the appearances, Todd’s "Hello It's W**d” product line will be gradually “rolled out” and made available at all locations where Cheef products are sold.

Todd Rundgren says: "So if I were to say that I was getting into the branded cannabis market, I think the response would be ‘Duh’. I’ve never made it a secret that I’ve sought inspiration from altered states. And while there’s no guarantee that you’ll create a masterpiece, you may at least find a little peace. Worth a shot."

Kenny Vasoli of The Starting Line
Warped Tour, Miami, 2008

Kenny once dedicated the Jefferson Starship song "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" to me, which made me feel great. Then he added, "Since he's probably the only one here old enough to remember the original!" Ouch. But he was right.

Happy 70th Greg Hawkes!
It still amazes me that Greg spent his money to buy some of my AWATS books, and as far as I know, they still live on his coffee table!
Here’s two sides of him:

Happy Birthday, Eminem!
Born October 17, 1972
At The Vans Warped Tour, Randall's Island, NYC 7/16/99
btw he got booed off the stage. The Warped tour was NOT the place for him, especially before he was known.

But in my mind he got what he deserved... he was such an as**at to the male photographers ONLY backstage. Refusing to pose for us, having us escorted out of the area, and posing only for the women. How weird. When that first bottle of water came flying out of the crowd and hit him, I've got to admit, me and the other male photogs in the pit were laughing. Instant Karma can sometimes be painful.
