Two events to celebrate 420 today! Three chances to hear the band!

 

CENTURY OF LIES

1:00pm CST on KPFT-FM90.1 or www.kpft.org

High Times Magazine editor-at-large Steve Bloom

 will appear with Dean Becker on this populat radio program and podcast.

 

Along with the BloomDude, I'll be there with The New Jack Hippies Homegrown Collective. We will perform 2-3 pro-legalization songs in a cool acoustic ensemble with horns.

 

420 FEST

Last Concert Cafe at 4:20pm - 'til latenight

Lots of bands and speakers including The hightailers, Potroast & The New Jack Hippies (8pm).

Supports Houston NORML (yea!).

 

ATOMIC DOG BENEFIT

The New Jack Hippies will also participate on Sunday at Dan Electro's 2-day benefit for the Waltrip High kids who are trying to get their Atomic Dog Art Car back from Germany. If you don't know of this cool story (which includes George Clinton - why isn't he paying and getting publicity?), just google it!
