Burt has blown the long-held "rock stars have all the good shit" belief out of the water with his latest story about a marijuana mishap. Somehow, when trying to get some weed in London, the singer ended up with a tissue stained with a single drop of blood. I understand that some drug dealers may, on occasion, not be on the up and up about their product. I understand that some people get swindled. But I'm pretty sure most people can tell the difference between marijuana and a bloody tissue.

 

Apparently not Burt, though.

 

He spent £80 [approximately $160] on a small package that was a bunch of tissues and tape, with "a single drop of blood" at the center. As far as drug dealer tricks go, that's pretty out there. And mind-boggling. It leaves me with so many questions, the biggest one being, "whose blood does a drug dealer use for these sort of things?" Surely not their own, but whose? And why?

 

This is why, should you find yourself in a position to do some smoking with Bert on The Used's current tours, be sure to bring your own stash. Not that you should have one of those... that's against the law!
