Phish, Grateful Dead, Bob Marley and whatever staple artists are common in stoner circles couldn't hold a match to Bowie, Clapton, or other various cokeheads.
These are only music groups that make it well known they are potheads. There are scores of bands out there that smoke pot regularly and you'd never know it, from Cradle of Filth (in fact the bass guitarist got kicked out for smoking too much) to A Perfect Circle.
Of course, they might also be partaking in coke.
Why not a battle of the drug-groups? Heroin music certainly has some great stuff, ranging from Velvet Underground to Tool. This could go on forever...
I must agree with you on the large part though, I don't like reggae at all and Grateful Dead never caught my interest.
Plus, being around burnt out hippies isn't fun at all, honestly, I'd rather not hear about saving trees and how evil capitalism is.
And what stoner bands talk about saving trees and evil capitalism? Did you know that many left-wing people & politicians actually approached Bob Dylan, asking him if he would represent them, speak for them, come to their protests, issue a statement, et cetera? And he declined? I do not mean to make a blanket statement, but many champion Bob Dylan as almost sort of a leader of the whole liberal-hippie (specific, not just hippie) movement - yet he has never made any political statements.
I don't like weed because the high is only good for 60 minutes, then I need to smoke another. It makes me uncreative & lazy, and smoke is bad for the lungs.
I find that you are all high and weird for about 2 minutes, and then for the rest of the day you are completely burnt out. Smoking more does nothing. Kinda like crack, except you have a miserable comedown that lasts all day.
But i don't like weed culture, there is too much stupid
Haha yea really. I don't care if people like weed; that is their 'cup of tea'. But the whole "Lets smoke together in our Peace Circle" is a complete joke.
I'm somewhat suprised from the responses. Most people seemed to have said they are just tired of the marijuana high.
Of people I know who hate marijuana in real life, almost all of them say it is because of the anxiety. That, or they found heroin.
