The out-there stoners of Kottonmouth Kings have sold out their 420 Smoke on the Water Festival. Total bummer, man.
The show is something of an annual hometown tradition for the group, and will take place aboard the Queen Mary in Long Beach, California. Kingspade will open.
Get it? Smoke on the water and the show is on a boat?
Anyway for all you squares, Wikipedia is dropping science... weeeeeed science:
4:20 or 4/20 (pronounced four-twenty) is a term used in Cannabis culture as a discreet way to refer to cannabis and, by extension, a way to identify oneself with Cannabis culture. It is widely accepted that in the early 1970s, a group of teenagers at San Rafael High School in San Rafael, California used to meet every day after school at 4:20 p.m. to smoke cannabis at the Louis Pasteur statue.
Cannabis users gather on April 20 ("4/20" in the United States dating shorthand) to celebrate and consume cannabis. "4/20 friendly" is sometimes seen on advertisements for roommates, indicating that the current occupants are tolerant of cannabis users.
Suddenly my recent adventures in apartment hunting are making infinitely more sense.
