He said: “It is not too far from the future right now where you will see the head of 21-and-more use of medical marijuana. If we can leverage this industry in particular, be a positive advocate and help create policies, this change could have a substantial impact on my business. This means it will have a significant impact for musicians as well. ”
“We see on-site consumption in smokeout as a major step towards the protection and empowerment of patients’ rights. It happens too much where patients are often tempered with and arrested for possession of less than an ounce of medicine. Here in smokeout, our fans can exercise their rights without fear or intimidation. By having the consumer security and humanitarian smokeout, we hope to create a viable precedent for music festivals and community. We hope it inspires others to take this step and advance the movement. ”
