Independent Journalism in Denver Needs You
We need to raise $25,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
This weekend, stoners from across the Front Range will converge upon Red Rocks to celebrate 4/20. Two acts will be on hand to raise a toast roast commemorating the occasion, and you’d be hard-pressed to find a more fitting pair to do the roasting: the hemp-hop icons in Cypress Hill, and their SoCal-based punk-rock/reggae-funk counterparts in Slightly Stoopid. We recently linked up Stoopid frontman Miles Doughty with one of the city’s more high-profile connoisseurs — our very own marijuana critic, William Breathes — for a chat about the event, about playing with members of the Grateful Dead and, of course, about which strains he’s been smoking lately. Stop by the Backbeat blog to read the full interview.
