Arthritis is no fun and it affects a staggering number
of Americans. 27 million people in this nation suffer from
osteoarthritis, the most common form of arthritis. The condition
causes breakdown of joint cartilage resulting in pain and
inflammation where the bare joints rub together. 1.3 million live
with rheumatoid arthritis, an extremely painful autoimmune
condition. Cannabis contains powerful anti-inflammatory
compounds as well as natural analgesics, providing a relieving
combination that can ease joint pain while simultaneously
reducing the pain-causing inflammation.
In a 2005 study, THC and cannabidiol were found to produce
notable improvements in pain, quality of sleep, and to reduce
disease activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Both these
compounds are among the cannabinoids naturally occurring in
medical marijuana. In 2000, researchers found that cannabidiol
“effectively blocked progression of arthritis” in animal trials.
Although both these studies involve cannabinoids
administered as drugs isolated from marijuana, medicinal
10 kush
by J.T. GOLD
use of cannabis by smoking, vaporizing, or eating, may be a
better delivery method for the same potent analgesics and anti-
inflammatories. When smoked, medical marijuana enters the
smoker’s blood stream immediately and is distributed evenly.
In addition, smoking medical marijuana provides the body with
all the cannabinoids present in marijuana, not one or two
isolated components.
Arthritis can become debilitating and affect daily activities as
simple as driving or typing. Some of the signs to look for are:
tenderness in and around the joints, limited range of motion,
redness and warmth around area of affected joint.
Some other treatment options that avoid medication are:
Acupuncture, massage, stretching, breathing therapy, and herbal
therapy. Arthritis doesn’t have to take over your life. With a
balanced treatment plan using holistic healing, arthritis can be
easily managed and maintained.
Live well.

“ ….. Every wrinkle tells a story, don’t it….?” Yes, as a matter
of fact, in this case it does. Every last little crevice and crows
feet that remains on the faces of these notorious “bad-boys”
of rock’n’roll tells a long history of use and abuse. This month
we’ll take a look at one of the most famous drug charges against
a specific set of individuals in rock ‘n’ roll history - the arrest
of Keith Richards, Brian Jones, and Mick Jagger of The Rolling
Stones, on 5/10/1967.
Always viewed in direct competition with the goody-two-
shoes image of The Beatles, it didn’t take long for the Stones
to build a reputation. After many years of controversial lyrics,
depicting risqué imagery, and tongue in cheek lyrics about sex,
drugs, and rock ‘n‘ roll, the powers to be took notice. In 1966,
they had just released their fourth British album, Aftermath.
This featured direct drug references in the song “Mother‘s Little
Helper“, the first pop song to address prescription pill addiction.
At the time, you can imagine the controversy this encouraged.
And although these guys were probably poppin’ anything that
came their way, (which I’m sure was a lot) they were arrested
for Cannabis of all things. Imagine all the real drugs floating
around back then, and the Stones get busted for a bit of grass……
Considering the road these guys have been down, it’s quite
14 kush
comical in retrospect, especially considering how much the
viewpoint has now changed.
Don’t think for a minute that these guys got off easily either.
Following the raid on Jones’ house, Jagger was sentenced to three
months (for four amphetamine tablets). Richards was found
guilty of “…allowing Cannabis to be smoked on his property….”,
and was sentenced to a year in prison. Ok, so they probably didn’t
spend all that much time behind bars, but it sure was a case of
the “man” flexing his power. These guys may have been a little
too cocky for their own good, and they had to pay the price for
flaunting their shit in the wrong direction. There seems to be a
deep lesson to be learned from these ol’ geezers. One, remember
to always show respect for authority, (no matter how hard
sometimes) - and two, make sure if you’re a world-renowned
rockstar, to always have a handler hold your shit. That way you
never break stride.
So in review, if Marijuana is truly a “gateway drug” as they
say, The Rolling Stones certainly help this argument. Then again,
however these cats still make it to the stage to do what they do,
is a marvel in itself. Hey, if it weren’t for these guys, were would
Slash and Axl be today?

POLITICAL SPOTLIGHT by ROBERT E. SELAN

Why shutting down

400 COLLECTIVES
IN LOS ANGELES MAY BE A GOOD THING

“
While closing down several hundred dispensaries is certainly not
a good thing for those adversely affected, maybe there is some good
that can come from it if you read between the lines.
Katrina Vanden Heuvel, the editor and publisher of The Nation,
the oldest weekly magazine of political opinion in the U.S., recently
wrote an article published in the Washington Post about why LA’s
latest tack to shut down 439 dispensaries may be a huge step forward
for the entire legalization movement.
According to Vanden Heuvel, “in Los Angeles, anti-medicinal
marijuana zealots may have inadvertently put themselves, and their
cause, into the middle of Zeno’s Dichotomy Paradox. Simply put, the
paradox, posits that in order for one to reach his goal, he must first get
half-way there (1/2). But to reach half-way, he must get half-way to
half-way (1/4). And then half-way to half-way to half-way (1/8). And
so on, thereby reaching an infinite number of midpoints on his path
while never actually arriving at the end. LA’s new ordinance which

“
goes into effect on June 7, is but a mid-point in the paradox describing
the gap between the city’s current pot policy and outright, old-style
prohibition.”
Vanden Heuvel continues by stating that, “Perhaps sensing that in
2010, abolishing medicinal marijuana is no longer a viable legislative
option (Medicinal Marijuana was approved by California voters in
the Compassionate Use Act of 1996), the L.A. City Council has gone
half-way, electing to close only medicinal marijuana dispensaries that
opened after a 2007 moratorium declared that the city would not
sanction any more than it already had. This is a far cry from “Summer
of Love,” but it isn’t exactly “Just Say No,” either.
— Aristotle, Physics VI:9, 239b10
As patients and collectives try to figure out what the future holds
for them, collective lawyers are gearing up for the battle of a lifetime.
Legal challenges attacking the constitutionality of the new ordinance
have been filed by at least 2 groups, with others promising to follow.
There is no doubt that 1000’s of cities nationwide are closely
monitoring the seemingly never ending medical cannabis rollercoaster
that has over-shadowed Los Angeles for the past several months.
And the “what if it were legal” debates are heating up statewide, as
election day is now only 6 months away for the voters to decide if the
voices of Californians seeking full legalization of the once forbidden
herb are finally heard.
In times like this you’ve got to:
• Accentuate the positive
• Eliminate the negative
• And latch on to the affirmative
• Don’t mess with Mister In-Between.

In April, the City of Long Beach
(“LBC”) signed into law the City’s new
medical marijuana ordinance that allows
collectives to legally operate in the city
once they obtain a permit. Long Beach
thus becomes the fourth city in Southern
California (after West Hollywood, Laguna
Woods and Los Angeles) to take the right
step towards regulation and a step away
from banning dispensaries.
24 kush
by DAMIEN J. NASSIRI
Long Beach’s ordinance has a very similar look and feel to
the LA ordinance - except that there is no cap, meaning there is
no explicit limit on the number of collectives that Long Beach
will allow. There were early reports that the City would limit the
number of collectives in the City to 18; however, as of the drafting
of this article, the current version of the ordinance drafted by the
Long Beach City Attorney’s Office does not contain a cap. Of course
cities can always change things at the last minute, just look at the
wrangling that occurred at the LA City Council meetings with
late night changes to their troubled ordinance. If the version does
not have a cap, this would be a huge advance over the Los Angeles
Ordinance, which caps the number of collectives at 70 (or is it
180 – does the LA City Council knows themselves? Probably not).
The LBC ordinance is also similar to LA’s in that is also contains
the so-called “1000 foot rule,” which means that your collective
cannot be within 1000 feet of a school, park, church, child/daycare,
or other “sensitive uses.” Collectives also cannot abut or be located
across the street or alley from a property zoned for residential
use. Lastly, your collective may not be within 1000 feet of another
continued on page 26
kush 25
collective. This is an unfortunate provision and one that many hope
will not be adopted in the future by other cities, but at least this
ordinance is not a total ban. Those collectives faced with possibly
having to relocate should try to work with the City, but ultimately
may have to seek legal counsel to inform them of their available
legal rights and remedies.
For those new collectives as well as existing collective who wish to
operate, they now must apply for a permit. In order to apply for the
permit, collectives will need to provide the City with various types
of information. The collective must inform the City of the address
of their proposed location, which must be zoned commercial or
industrial, and may not be residential. Collectives also must also
provide a site plan and show written proof that their property owners
are aware of, and consent to, the collective’s activities. In addition,
the prospective collective will have to provide copies of their articles
of incorporation (or association) and other related legal documents
that support the collective’s legal status and operating procedures.
Another important limitation under this ordinance
is that collectives cannot distribute “concentrated
cannabis,” which means the separated resin,
whether crude or purified, obtained from marijuana.
Thus, collectives who wish to comply must not sell
hash and they are not allowed to sell edibles either.
In addition, collectives can only possess marijuana
that was cultivated at the collective property or
at a “predecessor location fully permitted.” This
provision is certainly unworkable and will likely
lead to litigation if the City does not adopt a more
reasonable approach.
In this ordinance, there is no “grandfathering in,” which means
existing dispensaries are required to apply for a permit and conform
to the new rules. If the existing collective’s use is non-conforming,
the collective will have to move or seek other possible remedies.
For those existing collectives who are facing the dilemma of- “will
I have to move?”- I would suggest attempting to negotiate with
the city in writing. There may be legal claims that can be asserted
26 kush
on behalf of the collectives which may result in an order that the
“non-conforming” collective can stay. The LBC ordinance, while
definitely a step in the right direction, may still be challenged in
the courts. The ordinance arguably violates a collective’s right to
due process of law and raises equal protection issues as well. With
that being said, the ordinance does have compassion in that there
is no cap on the number of collectives that may set up in LBC and
because it is not a ban or moratorium.
The ordinance will go into effect most likely on May 15, 2010
after the City has determined the appropriate permit application fee.
New and existing collectives will then have to file their applications,
although there is some discussion that new collectives will have to
wait 120 days before they can file.
Based on the author’s discussions and consultations with
potential collective owners in the LBC area, commercial and
industrial property owners are starting to show interest in leasing to
medical marijuana collectives because of the new ordinance. Some
of property owners have wanted to do this for a while but have been
reluctant because of the liability concerns. This is good news for
collectives who need a location. This ordinance, while not perfect
is certainly a step towards compassion as it opens LBC up to legal
dispensaries and is a bold move away from the staunch ban and
moratorium mentality being displayed in some of our neighboring
cities and counties. I hope that other cities will take this approach,
rather than the costly and litigious approach of cities like Lake
Forest, Westminster, and now Costa Mesa, which are suing their
collectives and trying to shut them down by making public nuisance
claims against the collectives. In the meantime, we all await the
Qualified Patients vs. City of Anaheim case decision that could
strike down Anaheim’s ban and open up even more locations for
collectives throughout the Southland in the other cities that have a
ban. Stay tuned.

We’ve all heard the cliches. The sun in your hair, the sound of the exhaust, feeling at one with
the road. Often times, owning a convertible can be a headache, the soft tops can be loud, even
in modern cars. Then there is the price, the luggage room sacrifice and sometimes the boost in
maintenance costs.
Of course there is more to it than that, sometimes those sappy cliches are right on. To own a
drop-top is to set yourself apart as someone who can, at the push of a button, enjoy life just a little
bit more.
Listed below are three all-star convertibles
Audi A5 Cabriolet
The Audi A5 Cabriolet is one of those ultra rare cars that seems
to provide it all. Stunning looks, a terrific driving experience and a
solid road handling that the Germans seem to be able to engineer
into cars while they sleep.

The A5 Cabriolet dons a traditional soft top in place of the hard

top that many manufacturers seem to be opting for these days.
Don’t be shaken though, the top features a noise dampening three
layer design with a glass rear window that, they claim, is able to
cut out all the harshness of the outside world when you want to.

When you do decide to put it down, you can do so in a scant

15-17 seconds at speeds up to 31 MPH, which is a pretty nice
feature for people whose roof priorities change at red lights.

The rest of the car is what we’ve come to expect from

Audi over the years. Solid design, attention to detail, and a
terrific selection of economical and sporty engines. This is
a true Bavarian boulevard cruiser.

 Mazda MX 5 Miata
The Mazda MX 5’s inclusion should be no surprise to those of you
who are familiar with drop top cars. The Miata has been a staple in the
car world since its introduction in 1989. The car is designed, from the
ground up to provide the maximum amount of driver enjoyment at a
low cost.

Over the years the car’s inoffensive styling and exhilarating

handling has made it not only one of the most successful convertibles,
but one of the most successful cars in history.

This current car has been on sale since 2006 when, at release, the
world’s press labeled it as a solid update to an old classic.

When you get down to it, the Miata is one of the few cars left in
the modern market that has absolute character. Some people take
to labeling the Miata as a car for Corky Romano types. Don’t be
fooled, in the over two decade long run that the Miata has enjoyed
it has been one of the most prominent presences at track days
around the world, and it’s an absolute blast to drive.

Maserati Gran Turismo Convertible

The Maserati Gran Turismo Convertible sits in traffic like Megan
Fox at Comic-Con. It’s seductive curves and intimidating exhaust
noise dominates the world around it.

In more affluent areas, the Gran Turismo Convertible is starting

to become a little common place, so if you expect to get exclusivity
with over $100 thousand of your hard earned money, you might
want to look elsewhere. Furthermore, this car isn’t the fastest in its
segment, nor is it going to be the most reliable or the best on gas.
These types of cars aren’t bought for statistics though. You buy a
car like this because you love it.

If you are looking for the drive of your life, there are few
other cars, in any price range that can provide the sultry electric
driving experience that the Maserati provides.

Summer is a special time for convertible owners. The gloom

and cold is giving way to scorching hot and clear skies; and this
group of automotive connoisseurs are poised and ready, like a
bizarre band of joie de vivre ninjas.

In the end, life is short. If you don’t own a drop top, if you
don’t want to put up with the headaches of the road noise, go
rent one for a weekend. Pick it up, put the top down and go
for a blast through an alpine road or along a coastal highway
because you can, because it will put a smile on your face.

About a decade ago, the hip, civilized Amsterdammers decided to legalize the
cannabis trade. Two dozen of the city’s 400 coffeehouses--better known as “brown
cafes,” owing to their venerable, smoke-stained interiors--were licensed to sell
hash and grass over the counter. Actually, the pot trade had been going on for
years before that, but in an underground fashion. Now coffeehouses can apply to
city hall for an official soft-drug permit which allows for cannabis to be dispensed
openly, along with coffee, tea, energy drinks, food and (occasionally) alcohol.
continued on page 46
44 kush
 msterdam’s policy spread to the rest of the
country. Today, there are about 2,000 hash
joints throughout Holland, the nation with the
lowest hard-drug use in Europe. The policy has worked so well
that dozens of other European cities and provinces signed the
Frankfurt Accord to implement tolerance in their communities
as part of a drug-abuse reduction project.
The Amsterdam brown cafes that have been legitimized are
strictly monitored. They are forbidden to operate near schools;
patrons must be 18 or older to enter; and it’s illegal to buy and
hold more than five grams of Dutch treat.
What follows is a strictly personal guide to the best of
Amsterdam’s cannabis cafes, the non-sleazy ones that offer
ambience along with quality, even prize-winning smoke.
DE ROKERIJ (Lange Leisedwarstraat 43) is the flagship
of a coffeehouse chain. Unlike Starbucks, though, this outlet
not only sells several kinds of high-powered marijuana (AK-47,
Nepalese Cream, Stardust; approx. $20 a gram), but offers exotic
decor fashioned after a scene in Arabian Nights. Indian murals
grace the walls, the lighting is soft and sexy, ragas play on the
sound system, overhead fans blow away the fumes, cushions
and low tables are scattered around the private and communal
rooms. On weekends henna tattoo artists and tarot-card readers
cater to your needs.
where drugs and sex are concerned. Not only is cannabis legal
in Amsterdam, so is prostitution; the red-light district with its
famous “girls in the windows” is sanctioned and policed by the
authorities. The Dutch have also licensed a brothel that caters
exclusively to physically disabled people.
KATSU (Eerste van der Helstraat 102) is a bit off the beaten
track, but has a cozy, unpretentious neighborhood feel (gezellig
in Dutch). The Supersage on sale here ($10 a gram) is what locals
call a kopstoot, a knock on the head.
BARNEY’S BREAKFAST BAR (Haarlemmerstraat
102) is just that, a good place to start the day. The menu is large
and varied, with such American dishes as waffles and pancakes as
well. But the real specialty is Sweet Tooth ($12 a gram), another
perennial winner at the Cannabis Cup. It’s like having your bell
rung by an NFL nose tackle.
The big winner at the Cannabis Cup, year in and year out,
is GREENHOUSE (Oudezijds Voorburgwaal 191). The
coffeehouse has won some three dozen prizes in recent years, all
of which are proudly displayed in glass cases. Among the winning
brands are Shanti’s Holy Balls, Shanti Baba and King Hassan
Elite. The hash joint draws big crowds, but they are scattered
around the spacious, spot-lit lounge with its comfortable leather
couches and chairs. I usually opt for the Big Bang (approx. $10 a
gram), which never fails to live up to its name.

DE DAMPKRING (Handboogstraat 29) is a much more It’s not advisable to get too stoned in Amsterdam, if only

bell jars packed with 25 different grasses, 18 hashes, and various
kinds of pre-rolled joints. The “Fair Smoke” label identifies
which product was organically grown (biological nutrients, no
chemical pesticides). A menu not only describes the goodies on
sale but rates them (“clear high,” “psychedelic high,” and so on).
Prices range from $15-$50 a gram, but the house-rolled Tbizla
joint is $10.

Celebrity hounds shouldn’t miss GREY AREA (Oude

Leliestraat 2), if only because many American and British rock
musicians unwind here when they’re in town. GREY AREA
is a small, dim joint with nondescript decor, but cannabis
connoisseurs praise its wares, especially a hash called Grey Mist
($20 a gram), which won second prize at the Cannabis Cup a few
years back.

The Cannabis Cup, an annual competition (only authorized

coffeeshops can enter it), is a widely-promoted, public event,

 STRAIN REVIEW:

by DILLION ZACHARA

There’s an old saying: “Don’t judge a

book by its cover”. But sometimes that’s
a hard piece of wisdom to follow. We’re
all human (unless extraterrestrials read
Kush) and when you first hear a city’s
name or a person’s name you make some
immediate assumptions about identity. 
Well, the same can go for names of different cannabis strains.
With such a wide variety offered to patients these days, names can
become dizzying and sometimes you just gotta go with your gut.

DAWG. I have seen this name on the menu quite a few times but to be
honest, a name like Purple Jedi or God’s Gift is always more appealing than
AK-47 or DAWG. The latter are just such aggressive names, and aggression is
just the opposite of what I’m generally looking for when I buy weed. But it’s just
a name right? So I felt stupid judging it for so long. 
Finally I went against my instincts and bought a $15 gram and, well.... woof woof.

In reality, DAWG is a supremely pleasant and relaxing strain. It’s a great indica for an
easy evening after a hard day. Take a Sunday evening stroll with the DAWG right before a
long week ahead you won’t think about that meeting, project due, or daunting inbox that lies
in store for you come the morning. It’s perfect to kill your stress, set you straight, and let you
think about more of the good and less of the bad in our world and your life.  

Contrary to the DAWG’s color, this isn’t a purple strain of kush. But the batch
I got was pretty deep purple and dark green, with lots of bright red hairs and a
snowy shimmer. It’s pretty dense when fresh, but if you can’t hang with the mass

48 kush
just let it sit for a day and you’ll be fine. You would think it is re-
lated to Chem Dawg or Chem Dog, but these are both full sativa
or hybrid, and DAWG definitely is a pure indica kush.

So here I was thinking the DAWG would bark at me rather

than lick my face, hump my girlfriends leg, and tuck me into bed.
We got along great. Although I’m too lazy to cook these days,
cooking this strain into your meals would be absolute perfection.
A nice relaxing indica, often used to treat insomnia, baked into
a pie or whatever else your little heart can imagine is bliss. Aches
and pains will be forgotten, and the best part? Afterwards you
get to say “I got high on DAWG food”. 

Remember when Cheech and Chong smoked that joint of

the “dog shit” that really was dog shit after a dog ate their Maui
Wowie? Well this DAWG shit is guaranteed to be way better
than that, and it still sounds just as cool when you say that you
smoked it. 

Maybe at the end of the day, what you can’t do is judge a

book by the cover you interpret. But sometimes you’ve got
to follow your instincts. If a book has a really stupid
or boring name, chances are it’s going to have a
lot of really stupid or boring content. We
wouldn’t name our magazine “Shake”
would we??

Are you tired of the miserable,
shriveled up Am/Pm hot dogs on
rotation late at night, when you’ve
just fiFInished ripping through
some Grape Ape, and soon your
imagination starts running.......…
“I could sure use a hot dog….. just not off that spinner….” you
ponder. At which point, your mind starts thinking about some
Reese’s Pieces, but you’re soon distracted by a rack of your school
time favorite - The Twinkie!!!! “Man that Grape Ape was good…..”
you think to yourself….“I am soooo STOOOOONED, and
HUNGRY!!!!” If you’ve ever experienced this type of meandering
quest through a convenience store in search of the perfect munchie,
than we’ve got a great alternative spot for you.
Just on the other side of Beverly Glen, where it meets Ventura
Blvd. in Sherman Oaks, you’ll find The Infield Hot Dog Stand -
right in the Handy J’s Car Wash lot. What you’ll find there will blow
your mind!
What is it about The Infield? Let’s start with their menu. Over
30 specialty dogs including Pastrami Dogs, Dodger Dogs, Chicago
Dogs, Brooklyn Dogs, Hawaiian Dogs, and Italian Dogs. The list
goes on and on.
50 kush
The only limitation, is your imagination. Let’s say some of the
dogs on the Infield’s menu were designed with the stoner in mind.
How does a Chili Cheese Frito Dog sound? Have you ever heard of
a Twinkie Dog? How about a Reese’s Pieces Dog? Yes, that means
there is a hot dog in there….. “The sweet and savory collide in a
strangely delicious way…..” owner Rob Davitian told me, “….some
people try it for the novelty, but the people that truly love these types
of dogs, are usually pretty stoned, and they LOVE THEM!!!” Well
the guys at The Infield have apparently been doing a lot of “research
and development” let’s say, and kinda have this “munchie” thing on
lock. If you just want a great little dank dessert, try the plain Deep
Fried Twinkie, with a dash of powdered sugar on top - figetaboutit.
Besides these delicious classics, combined with these unreal
dessert dogs, what makes The Infield so great is the ambiance of
this tiny hot dog stand. Not only is the entire place an homage to
America’s favorite pastime, (No - not twisting J’s) - Baseball, in all
it’s glory. The Infield has a great collection of bleacher seats from
around the MLB parks, including the Dodgers, Yankees, Cardinals,
Mariners, and more. Their idea was to offer all the dogs from
around the league, and to really take it to the next culinary level,
they offer 17 different hot dog brands, including Sabrett from NY,
Vienna from Chicago, Hebrew National, Nathan’s, Dodger Dogs,
Oscar Meyer, Turkey Dogs, Hot Links, and even a Kobe Beef
Dog…… WOW!
Along with The Infield Hot Dog Stand, (which is open until
midnight or later, depending on the season) you can also find these
stoner specialties at the Jon Lovitz comedy night up at Citywalk.
That sounds like another “Grape” night to me.
For more info about The Infield, you can go to their website
at www.DAW.gs or find them on Twitter@TheInfield, or just give
them a call at (818)501-1850.

Starting with the right seed

is equivalent to choosing the right
architect to design your ultimate
dream home. Without the right
tools and attributes, the end result
will not be the desired intent.
This is where it all starts
- the genetic point
of inception,
so choose your
seeds wisely.
continued on page 58
kush 57
 The days of smuggling
seeds back from
Amsterdam in the hems
of your pants are gone.
Now, buying seeds online, is as easy as buying a pair of
shoes. You can scroll through pages and pages of strains, and
read up on exactly which type of high you desire. For those of
you just getting started, here are some simple steps to make
sure you start your growth in the right direction.
First, understand that there are many stages of growth for
your marijuana seed to reach it’s full germination process.
Given that no two sets of conditions are alike, so give them
lots of attention to prevent any problems.
Start with a clean setup. You will need a small glass filled
with mineral water to submerge your (female) seed into. At
first, your seed will float. Try to pour the water the previous
day, and leave it out in the open to eliminate any chlorine
or other harmful chemicals from damaging your seed. Also
keep in mind that nicotine is like poison to Cannabis seeds,
and plants, so if you smoke, make sure to sanitize your hands
first. Any impurity can ruin your plans. Now that you’ve got
the seed in the water, you’re going to want to cover the glass
completely in darkness for 24-30 hours, left in a warm space.
58 kush
This is the only way that the seed will absorb the water, and
eventually grow. You’ll notice that after the allotted time, the
seed will have sunk to the bottom.
Next, you’re going to fill a plastic Solo drinking cup
with soil mix, about 2/3 of the way up. Cut 3 or 4 slats
into the bottom, to allow for drainage and aeration.
This new cup will house your seed, while also cutting
down on any further damage transferring it around. You will
then place the seed 3/16” under the soil, knot side up, then
water thoroughly.
From here you will place the cup under light for 16-20
hours. You will want to cover the cup in a humidity dome,
with the light above it. Make sure to get your timer set up,
and be consistent, so you don’t stress out the lil’ guy. With the
right care and patience, you should be well on your way to a
successful growth.
Once your seed has broken ground, remove the cup from
the humidity dome, and move it to an area with 16-18 hours of
light, and air circulation. Make sure to spray the soil now, not
to water, or soak it too much. This germination stage has now
entered the seedling stage. By day four, your seedling should
be sprouting upward, struggling to shed it’s seed casing, and
you should see the first two leaves begin to grow. Make sure
not to over-water your seedling. Wait for the top soil to get
a little crusty before spraying it again. After 5-7 days in the
solo cup, you are now ready to transfer the plant into a larger
container with more soil, preferably in a glass container.
So remember, choose your
seeds wisely, be gentle, and take lots
of care with them, and before
you know it, you’ll be trimming
up some nice medicine.

Paving New Regulations
For Weed-Impaired Drivers
M ore drivers tested positive for marijuana than alcohol
in a recent impaired-driving study, but pro-cannabis advocates
said these statistics should not be used to target marijuana users.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, or
NHTSA, conducted a survey in 2007 on weekend nights to
determine the number of drug- and alcohol-impaired drivers.
Results released last year show that weed was the most
common substance detected in the drivers. The next most
common drugs recovered during searches? Cocaine and
methamphetamine.
About 8.6 percent of those surveyed tested positive for
cannabis. And 2.2 percent had blood alcohol concentrations at
or higher than the legal limit. Data were collected by randomly
stopping drivers across the nation on weekend nights.
Marijuana advocates explain that they have safety
concerns about drug-impaired driving, but are also wary
about marijuana regulations that jail users.
“I think if you look at the public’s No.1 concern regarding
liberalizing marijuana laws it’s the fear that there is going to
be a major increase in people driving under the influence,
“ said Paul Armentano, deputy director of the National
Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws, or NORML.
“And we need to reassure the public that as reformers, we
are just as concerned about this issue as they are.”
There were more than 11,000 drunk driving fatalities
on the roads nationwide in 2008, a decrease since the year
before.
Drugged drivers caused about 20 percent of car
accidents nationwide according to “conservative estimates”
from the Institute For Behavior and Health, or IFBH, an
anti-drug reformation organization. Many feel that there
are risks associated with both driving under the influence
of alcohol and weed.
“Driving while impaired, from alcohol, drugs, or both,
puts us all at risk and must be prevented,” said R. Gil
Kerlikowske, the director for the Office of National Drug
Control Policy, in a December press release.
DRIVING DRUNK VS. DRUGGED
Armentano said the risk associated with weed-
impaired driving is “dose dependent” and usually subtle
when compared with drunk driving. Marijuana affects the
psychomotor skills, he said, but the effects are short lived.
60 kush
By NALEA J. KO
“The other point that’s important to note is that even drivers
who appear to have the greatest elevated risk of accident due to
their marijuana use, only have an elevated risk that is similar to the
individual who had drank the legal quantities of alcohol,” Armentano
explained in a phone call to Kush.
Those who are more at a high risk of getting into accidents while
driving impaired on alcohol or weed are inexperienced drivers. Over
the years perception of weed among high school seniors has changed.
Fifty two percent of seniors in 2008 and 2009 said they thought
that smoking marijuana was harmful. That is compared to 58 percent
in 2006, according to the Center for Substance Abuse Research.
Furthermore young drivers—between the ages of 15 to 20—
represent a significant amount of those killed in car accidents. Of
those young drivers involved in fatal crashes in 2007, 31 percent
tested positive for alcohol, according to the NHTSA. This indicates
more reason to create educational programs about impaired driving,
geared toward young drivers.
“Statistically people between the ages 18-25 are far more likely to
use marijuana than other age groups. And certainly drivers in that
age demographic are for the most part less experienced drivers, “
Armentano said.
Others agree that drugged driving poses risks, but their solutions
differ.
“Illegal drug use is not a victimless crime. The laws against drug
use and sale are important public health measures that reduce the
negative consequences of drug use, including drugged driving,”
said Dr. Robert L. DuPont, president of the IFBH, in an October
release. “Legalizing marijuana poses substantial risks, including
increasing drugged driving.”
Armentano said the problem with regulating marijuana and
driving is that the prohibitionists are the only ones addressing
the issue. And they, he said, are primarily concerned with putting
people who use marijuana in jail.
“We need to be involved to help and assist in this effort to that
we have laws that actually make sense as oppose to just having laws
that paint such a broad brush that they simply punish marijuana
users per se as opposed to targeting and punishing users who act
irresponsibly,” he said.
A follow-up study to the 2007 NHTSA survey will be conducted
to determine which drugs pose a higher risk for accidents. Results
are expected in 2012.
 PICNIC
by JAY EVANS
ICNIC BASKETS, BOTTLES OF WINE,
AND COOLERS FILLED WITH WHO
KNOWS WHAT, USUALLY MAKE FOR A
good time….. When you combine them with a variety of great
music, in an outdoor amphitheater, then you start to realize why
some of us put up with all the traffic here in Los Angeles. There
aren’t too many places left in L.A. that allow for open containers
of alcohol, and invite you to bring enough for your neighboring
concert-goers. These party-friendly policies are just part of the
good times taking place at the Hollywood Bowl. This Art Deco
landmark is one of the countries top concert venues, and is home
to the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, the L.A. Philharmonic, as well
as hundreds of other concert performances.
Designed in the shape of an old hot air balloon in 1922, the
17,376 seat bowl (which gets it’s name from the concave hill the
seats are carved out of) is tucked away nicely in the Hollywood
Hills, just west of the 101 freeway, and the famous Hollywood
sign. It’s often surreal, that such a beautiful place exists amongst
such hustle and bustle.
The history of the Hollywood Bowl speaks for itself. Hosting
such musical greats as The Beatles, The Grateful Dead, Luciano
Pavarotti, The Rolling Stones, Tom Petty & the Hearbreakers,
62 kush
at the
H O L LY W O O D BOWL
{2010 Season Preview}
Radiohead, Roger Waters, and the Dave Matthews Band,
among many, the L.A. City owned venue is always a highlight
destination for many headline tours. Besides these major
acts that lease the venue (which for “leased” shows, alcohol is
NOT PERMITTED…. Ex: any KROQ shows, or shows NOT
sponsored by the L.A. Philharmonic, or The Hollywood Bowl
Orchestra) the bowl always has great lineups which include a
Jazz night, a Classical night, and a KCRW World Music Series
which highlights many different artists from around the globe.
With a beautiful mountainous setting, a recently re-vamped
stage and sound system, the Hollywood Bowl looks and sounds
better than ever. The highly desired Garden and Terrace Boxes
allow up to 6 people to share a space in which fold-out director’s
chairs and fold-up tables encourage lavish picnic spreads. There
really isn’t a bad seat in the house, since large video screens were
recently erected. Even those upper bench sections which were
once just trees, are great for a fun summer night. From the right
section up top, you can see the Hollywood sign, the John Anson
Ford Theater, and even the Griffith Park Observatory. Those
who had nosebleeds for the Roger Waters’ shows a couple of
years ago know how great the cheap seats at the Bowl can be.
With tickets already on sale, and some tickets selling as
cheap as $1, the accessibility to see great music is there for the
entire city, no matter what the income. Here is a list of shows
already announced for the 2010 season.

 Among the many uses facilitated by the Hemp plant, there
has always been a certain group that wears it on their sleeve.
Anyone who has attended a Grateful Dead concert, or any other
popular jam band, has probably seen these garments. Whether
it be the quilt-like pants and shirts, or the duffle bags or stash
by JOSH KAPLAN cases - any respectable Shakedown St. should have such articles
for sale. It’s no surprise than, that with the latest boom in 420
friendly states succumbing to this tolerant point in history, that
the hippies that have been making these products on tour, would
eventually find a legitimate place within our present commerce.

Started in 1996 by a mother and daughter team, Hemp Sisters

has since been sold to the one-man team of Ed Edmundson.
Taking what the sisters started, and making it an ever-growing
entity, the line of products offered includes everything from
clothes, bags, wallets, hats, soap, lip-balm, skin care, hammocks,
jewelry, twine, and chord - as well as a whole separate line of
products under the newly named Earth Divas, using recycled
silk, felt wool, cotton, and recycled rice bags. “Earth Divas”
which will soon replace the name of the whole line, consists of
handmade, natural fiber, fair trade accessories made by women’s
co-ops from around the world. Using no middleman, the Earth
Divas work directly with the people that make the items.

With all the virtues of this amazing plant, it’s no wonder that
there are people out there with the sensibilities to make viable
products out of Hemp. Being that it’s warmer, more absorbent,
and three times stronger than cotton, and is the oldest cultivated
fiber plant, with a history of use in textiles and fabrics dating
as far back as 8000 BC, why wouldn’t you take a look at these
products? For more info about Hemp products, check out:

 Last month the world lost a great visionary
and man. Jack Herer died on April 15th, 2010
after suffering a stroke and heart attack in
Portland last autumn. We at Kush Magazine
by J.T. GOLD honor him, revere him and will always hold his
legacy in the highest regard. Rest in peace,
Jack. You left this world better than you found
it and for that we are all grateful.

Back in September, Kush Magazine

interviewed Mr. Herer and Rick Simpson in
what may have been the last, or certainly close
to the last time Jack did a telephone interview
before Hempfest, where he gave his rousing
speech. Here is that interview.

Jack Herer, legendary hemp champion and author of the book,

“The Emperor Wears No Clothes” is excited for a 10-week tour of
Eastern Europe with friend and activist Rick Simpson where they
will visit twenty-five colleges and universities to spread the word
about the medicinal powers of healing hemp oil. Simpson has
been creating and promoting hemp oil for twelve years released a
film in 2008 called Run From the Cure- The Rick Simpson Story,
a documentary film with testimonials from several terminally
and chronically ill people whose lives have been transformed and
their cancers completely cured with hemp oil, including Simpson
himself.

What is extraordinary about this particular trip is that by all

good reason, Jack Herer shouldn’t be healthy enough to travel.
In 2000, Jack suffered a stroke and the damage was quite severe.
He lost much of his speaking ability and his motor skills were
diminished. He also suffered from diabetes and diabetic ulcers.
After ongoing and failing medical treatment, Herer met Rick
Simpson to learn more about the hemp oil he was making.

 After two months, all of his conditions greatly improved and
his speech is good enough that our interview happened over the
telephone.
Rick Simpson, a resident of Nova Scotia, Canada, was just
a regular, middle-aged, engineer when he first realized the
immense healing benefits of cannabis oil. He was diagnosed with
basal cell carcinoma in 2002. He cured his skin cancer simply by
applying high-grade cannabis oil directly onto the infected areas.
Now, six years later he has shared the cure with thousands of others.
KUSH: Hi Jack. It seems obvious that the two of you would
join forces, but how did you actually meet?
JH: About 4 years ago, my wife met him in Canada and told
me I should contact him about his work. I had an Internet show
at the time and I called him to be a guest on the show with Eddy
Lepp. After the show and learning about Rick’s work, I couldn’t
believe it. I had been studying and working as a hemp advocate
nearly my whole life and I didn’t know what Rick knew. I felt like
I was hit by a truck.
KUSH: Is that when you began taking the oil for your
own conditions?
JH: Yes.
RS: Eddy called me a week after Jack started taking the hemp
oil and said he couldn’t’ believe the difference. Eddy said to me,
“Rick, 45 days ago, Jack couldn’t walk 15 feet. Now he’s walking
all over the hemp festival talking to vendors!”
KUSH: Your hemp oil sounds like a miracle drug, Rick. What
does the medical community think of your work?
RS: They don’t listen. They don’t want a cure. There is way
too much money being made by the drug companies for them to
actually want to find a cure. It’s an epidemic. Natural healing isn’t
profitable, so why would they listen?
JH: The drug companies are the worst. They have been
poisoning us for years. Look at chemotherapy. It’s enough poison
to kill a person’s immune system and make their hair fall out.
RS: Look, say you get smashed up in a car accident, they
[doctors] take you in there, and put you back together; in
many cases, work miracles. But when it comes to curing simple
diseases, they’re a dismal failure. This natural plant, that grows
and replenishes on this earth, holds the key to true compassionate
healing and care. People would rather take poison.
KUSH: Why do you think that is?
RS: Well, it’s partly due to the society we’ve grown up in.
With the taboo that surrounds marijuana, from propaganda like
74 kush
[cult film] “Reefer Madness”. Even people on their death bed, are
scared to take cannabis oil for fear of getting high. However, they
still allow themselves to be subject to deadly treatments such as
chemotherapy and radiation. Doctors often give the excuse that
the plant is, “still under study,” as a reason for not prescribing it.
How long does it take to study? If it works, it works.
KUSH: People can watch your film for free online with
testimonials from people whom you have treated and even
instructions on how to produce your own oil at home. It seems
hard to believe that you can make a “cancer cure” at home. Isn’t
it difficult?
RS: If you follow the instructions, it’s no more difficult than
making a cup of coffee.
JH: (laughs) If I can do it, anyone can!
RS: I had a 83-year-old woman call me the other day and tell
me that she has been suffering with cancer for two years. She saw
my movie and decided to try to make the medicine. She called to
tell me how she did and what process she used, which was just as I
instructed and sure enough, she had made perfect hemp oil using
things she has around her house like a rice cooker.
KUSH: Do you get a lot of calls like that?
RS: People from all over the world call me every day for help.
I have people coming to me for all reasons. Patients come to me
with chronic pain, scoliosis, arthritis, and even AIDS. 4 out of 5
people can be saved if they take the medicine right. Miracles are
a common thing around here. When you make the essential oil
of the most medicinal plant in the world, why should it surprise
anyone that it’s a miracle drug?
JH: That’s what we’re doing. We’re trying to break down the
walls. People need to know about hemp and what it can do.
Instead of poisoning the planet and ourselves, we need to get
back to nature. A hemp-based economy worked for the United
States for decades. It can work again.
KUSH: So the tour you’re heading out on this fall is an effort
to spread the word? You’re the high priests of hemp and you’re
going worldwide? Is that it?
JH: The time has come for awareness. We can heal the world
with this plant.
RS: Once people know what this plant really does, who’s
going to stand against it? I just want see us get back to real
healing; natural medicines that won’t hurt people. I want to see
the human race back on the right track. There’s nothing special
about me; it’s the medicine that’s magic.

 San Juan Capistrano is home to one of the country’s most famous
Missions. Mission San Juan Capistrano was founded on All Saints
Day November 1, 1776 by Spanish Catholics of the Franciscan
Order. Named for Giovanni da Capistrano, a 15th century
theologian and “warrior priest” who resided in the Abruzzo region
of Italy, San Juan Capistrano has the distinction of being home to
the oldest building in California still in use, a chapel built in 1782.
The history of California’s winemaking heritage can also be traced
to this historic locale. California’s first vineyard was located on the
Mission grounds, with the planting of the “Mission” or “Criollo”
grape in 1779, one grown extensively throughout Spanish America
at the time but with “an uncertain European origin.” It was the only
grape grown in the Mission system throughout the mid-1800s. The
first winery in Alta California was built in San Juan Capistrano
in 1783; both red and white wines (sweet and dry), brandy, and a
port-like fortified wine called Angelica were all produced from the
Mission grape.
The Los Rios District lies directly across the railroad tracks
from the Capistrano Depot and is the oldest neighborhood in
California. The forty homes that remain here include three original
adobe structures. The Montanez, the Rios, and the Silvas are all that
remain of the adobes that housed the builders of the mission and
the mission ranch workers in the late 1700’s and early 1800’s. A
walk through this sleepy little neighborhood is a walk back in time
to a place where life was slow and dusty.
The Return of the Swallows to SJC is an annual phenomenon of
nature. You can set your calendar by their migration and the town
throws a parade and fiesta in their honor. The brown swallows are
Cliff Swallows and Barn Swallows. They probably have taken this
same annual migration for centuries, returning each spring on
March 19th, St. Joseph’s Day. The swallows return to the same nests
under the eaves of the Mission which are made of mud, with a small
entrance on the bottom of each nest. The swallows are said to leave
Capistrano each year on St. John’s Day, October 23rd.
The swallows first send a few scouts before the huge return of
the group to their nests at Capistrano and the surrounding areas.
The swallows can also be seen at the Mission San Carlos Borromeo
de Carmelo, Saddleback College and the hillsides near Capistrano.
In recent years, the swallows have failed to return to the mission
en masse, possibly due to the increased urbanization of the area, but
they do still return to the area. The swallows particularly like the
mustard seed plants and the insects which feed on the plants.
Spend a day exploring the quiet and beautiful town. The San
Juan historical society is a great resource for information and offers
walking tours. Also check out the O’Neill Museum and the Arley
Leck house. Information can be found at the historical society

For all the ol’ skool O.C. Kush heads out there, you may
already know about the legacy of The White House. Being the
oldest restaurant in Laguna Beach means something, right? With
a history steeped in Hollywood folklore, and rock ‘n’ roll, this
restaurant/nightclub has been a staple for some of the world’s biggest
entertainers, as well as locals. All are in search of the same thing,
good food, a good bar, and live entertainment to get loose to, 7 days
a week. If that’s not enough to entice you, it happens to be right
across the street from the ocean, which makes their Happy Hour
drinks, and “Sunset Dinner” specials (4-7 nightly) a perfect combo.
Stepping out front puts you a few feet away from truly epic sunsets.
Really worth taking a walk for, if you know what I mean…….
Serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner, the White House prepares
fresh food daily. Famous for their Eggs Benedict, the hollandaise
sauce is made every morning from scratch. There are plenty of
delicious sandwiches and salads to choose from for lunch, as well as
a full dinner menu with choices of steaks, seafoods, ribs, and pastas.
The Chilean Sea Bass and Flatiron Steaks are the most popular
dishes, while the Sashimi Ahi appetizer and Crab Cakes remain local
favorites. I don’t think Bing Crosby ever sent a White House steak
back, and after 92 years, I’d say they’re doing something right.
The White House’s legacy for great food, and drinks remain a
focus, but it’s the work of Smokin’ Promotions that has brought a
new attitude, (and list of fresh sounding musical acts to the White
House) that deserves a special light.
Smokin’ Promotions has dug deep to bring Orange County the
best variety in live music. Without missing a beat, Monday kicks off
with live sets from local artists, and Happy Hour specials all night
long. Taco Tuesdays are a fun mid-week getaway with live music
and DJ sets. Wednesday night is all Rock! Classic/Punk/Grunge,
while Thursday features Hip Hop, with DJ sets, rappers and dancers
keeping the party moving. Friday features live rock and soul music,
80 kush
by JOSH KAPLAN
and Saturday night is more Hip Hop and Top 40 dance music.
Sunday, known as “Sunday Funday” starts with mimosa specials,
and a Sunday Brunch. Around 3pm the music gets started with
some acoustic sets, and leads into the big Reggae closeout to the
week with Higher Lion. The staff at Smokin’ Productions are very
proud to present House of Vibe - an O.C. all-star band featuring
members of Fishbone, the Untouchables, Suicidal Tendencies,
Common Sense, and members from Snoop Dogg’s posse. Now that’s
some pedigree…..With everyone from Jimmy Buffet, The Pointer
Sisters, Slash, Joe Cocker, Kenny Loggins, George Clinton, and Mick
Jagger as drop in musical guests, the White House’s stage is always
in support of killer music. Most recently Smokin’ Promotions has
unearthed an L.A. band called EVERYTHING MASSES. Even as a
duo, this sonic freight train produces energy somewhere between
the White Stripes, and Nirvana. With the bottles still shaking, a three
piece punk revival named Tora! Tora! Tora! ripped through a set that
would have made the Buzzcocks proud. It’s this type of new music
that the White House is bringing to the O.C. - nightly!!!!
With a full bar manned by the 25 year veteran and award
winning bartender John E. Dobbs, you are sure to find some spirits
and libations to enhance any mood. Stepping outside to enjoy some
fresh air is always a treat too, as the White House is smack dab in the
middle of Laguna’s art gallery row. Taking a brief walk is more like a
stroll through a museum. With the beautiful Pacific as it’s backdrop,
the great food, staff, and nightly entertainment, you just can’t lose at
the White House.

With great memories of years past, hanging out with friends,
meeting new friends, seeing great bands, and “enjoying” the
freedom that is shared at a music get-away, I headed out to the
desert for my tenth Coachella Music and Arts festival. Instead of
selling individual tickets per day, they decided this year to limit
attendees to buy three-day passes only. This pissed quite a few
people off, especially for those unable, or not wanting to see all
three days. It just forced the fans into spending unwanted money.
I wasn’t sure of how things might go, based on my lack of a pass,
but I didn’t let that stop me….. (maybe next year I’ll get a press
pass…hmm hmm….????)
The first day seemed like a nightmare for most, taking hours
in the hot sun to transfer tickets into wristbands for the weekend.
This line snaked around the outside of the venue, which was a
first. I heard some waited over three hours to get in. This new
method of ticket dispersion may need some looking into for next
year, but what do I know? The guys behind Coachella seem to
know what they’re doing. It’s just the jumping through hoops
that gets annoying in the heat of the desert. Thankfully, after ten
years I know how to circumvent such lines, so I can kick off my
flip-flops, and light a big fat joint freely into the desert sky - grab
a schedule, and enjoy some killer music. These are the moments
most cherished at Coachella.
With acres and acres of wide open space, the Empire Polo
Field has been a perfect home for this fest since 1999, and host
to some great musical moments. Invariably, there are a few
breakout bands that seem to shine brightly in the desert sun.
Friday, As Tall As Lions filled up the Mojave tent, while Calle
13 revved up the main stage with some 420 friendly vibes, ala
Sublime. 80’s favorites The Specials really impressed, with their
ever-fresh list of “rude-boy” hits. People really enjoyed skankin’
around the polo field. Rock super group Them Crooked Vultures
just annihilated the main stage, followed by Jay-Z and his special
guest Beyonce, bringing it home for a successful night one. Wow!
Two more to go…..
Saturday’s highlight’s started with Gossip in the Mojave tent,
but it was just a warm up to the highly anticipated reunion of
Faith No More. Busting out with the Peaches and Herb song
“Reunited”, put the crowd in a frenzy. Mike Patton and the
boys were on point and sounded as good as ever. Let’s hope this
reunion lasts. Muse brought their British flavor to the party,
but it was the performance of Master White that will stick in
my mind. Not content with just two great bands, Jack White is
relentless in his pursuit of musical greatness. His latest endeavor
The Dead Weather, finds Jack behind the kit, playing only a few
songs in front with guitar. This versatile artist is so inspiring to
watch live, so make sure to check him out, whichever project he’s
heading. Saturday ended nicely with a jam-packed DEVO set,
back in the Mojave tent.
Sunday is usually a wind-down day for most. If people aren’t
lured in by the local resort pools, they are usually late to arrive
for one reason or another. This year was no exception. Arriving
as the sun was setting, gave me enough time to see a little bit of
KROQ darlings, Phoenix. Then it was off to see 90’s lo-fi favorites,
Pavement. This was well worth the long wait. As expected, Thom
Yorke and friends pleased the adoring crowd, and the Art-Pop
group Gorillaz made staying until the end worth every beat.
Along with all the great music, and sense of freedom that
accompanies Coachella, there are many talented artists working
very hard to shock, impress, and amaze attendees with their
over-the-top art installations. This year featured a huge origami
bird, perfectly placed to provide some well-needed shade. The
electronic pipe organ which had different charges of electricity
for each note was a hit, but the vortex of fire was the biggest
crowd favorite - all worth spending time enjoying. The Do-Lab
was pumping dance mixes in the middle of it all, and seemed to
be packed as usual.
With so much to do and see, Coachella is worth attending all
long weekend. The art is easily absorbed between sets, as walking
from stage to tent, and back to stage again is a common plan.
Concessions at the venue are really quite good for festival food,
and if you’re lucky enough to get a VIP pass, you can get real
drinks while viewing the main stage. Pretty cool.
So with another Coachella weekend under my belt, I’ll be
waiting just like most attendees, to see what bands they will coax
into the desert for the three day event next year. It may be tough
to top years past, but I’m sure the people in charge of Coachella
are already weeding through suggestions.

a genre Neon Indian generally gets tossed into. They have a
wonderful 4-piece live set that may be surprisingly high energy for
some fans who haven’t seen them play live.

Aside from being one of the greatest live electronic acts on

the planet, LCD Soundsystem’s James Murphy is also co-
founder of renowned label DFA Records (Holy Ghost!, Hot
Chip, YACHT). They recently released a single “Drunk Girls”,
and on May 18th will release their latest album, This Is Happening.
fNew York’s Holy Ghost! is also more
o than worthy of buying ticketsr
this show @ the Palladium, as it’s only their second show as a
full live band.

THEÊX XÊ
6.5.10Ê @Ê MusicÊ Box,Ê 6.6.10Ê @Ê TheÊ Wiltern
The xx formed in 2005, but didn’t released their
debut album until just last year. The album,
xx, has received rave reviews with hits like
“VCR”, “Crystalised”, and “Islands”. Their
mellow 3-piece live set is so good that Jay-Z
and Beyoncé joined the chaotic masses of
Coachella to watch the indie darlings from
the crowd. And when a band has Hova’s
approval, you know they are going to be
pretty legit.

DIANAÊR OSSÊ
6.9.10Ê @Ê NokiaÊ Theater
At a ripe 66 years of age, Diana Ross has had
an incredible career from The Supremes to her
long, successful solo career. Nokia’s grand setting
combined with a potential to hear classics like
“Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” and “I’m
Coming Out” make this a must see concert for an
early summer evening. Her voice is still powerful,
and this classy lady won’t let you down.

Have you ever felt like day tripping through a garden, with
a huge pond, surrounded by lots of trees, and really famous
statues? Maybe after a bit of a stroll, you start craving a coffee, a
sandwich, or even a cookie? These are all common happenings,
but just part of the fun in spending time at the Norton Simon
Museum. Hiding behind foliage at the corner of Orange Grove
Blvd. and W. Colorado Blvd., just off the 134 freeway, sits one of
the most famous and renowned art museums, and it’s right here
in little ol’ Pasadena.
A trip to The Norton Simon Museum starts when you walk
up the palatial walkway. There you are greeted by a collection
of haunting bronze Rodin sculptures, larger than life, dark and
heavy. An interesting collection of Henry Moore sculptures also
fills the garden. What you’ll find inside the unconventionally
shaped building is an array of art from multiple periods, as well
as multiple origins. Everything form the 14th century to the 20th
century. Asian art as well as a major collection of Renaissance
art - all sectioned off in different parts of the museum. It’s really
like taking a trip around the world, and through a time machine.
Since 1922, once called the Pasadena Art Institute, this
museum has not only remained focused on art, but the education
of it. Once ran by the city, and always a non-profit, the Institute
displayed 19th century American and European art, as well as
featuring California artists and other cultural works. Relying
on endowments for many decades, the Institute even survived
through the Great Depression, by selling Rose Parade tickets,
and receiving private donations.

After eras of financial hurdles, a local business man named
Norton Simon stepped up to the plate. Having been very
successful running Hunt Foods, Max Factor, and Avis Rent-
a-car, Simon had amassed one of the world’s finest private art
collections. Believing that art is what would “….inspire and
reflect the human condition”, Simon took on the previous
debt of the museum, and in 1975 added to the already huge
art collection with his own. Changing the name to the Norton
Simon Museum of Art at Pasadena, has anchored his name in
the annals of art history. His theory behind the museum was not
only to have a place to just go see art, but a place to go learn
about art. This tradition of using the facility to educate goes on
today, with regular classes, seminars, and lectures.
Open everyday except Tuesday from 12-6, leaves lots of
time to enjoy this gem of Pasadena. So whether it’s Picasso’s,
Rembrandt’s, Renoir’s, or Van Gogh’s you seek out - or maybe
you’re into Buddhist art, or sculptures from the Kushana and
Gupta periods? All of the above is to behold at the Norton Simon
Museum. And don’t forget to take that stroll through the back
garden, as a nice break between periods. You won’t believe you’re
in L.A. County. This gift is to be shared and appreciated. Thank
you Mr. Simon.
Do you have a chill spot that you frequent in the L.A./OC
area? KUSH Magazine would like to hear from you if so. As long
as you wouldn’t mind other KUSH readers knowing about it…..
