Excellent read! Thanks for the heads up.

um. Jim's relocated to nyc? that one makes me a little sad...

the revolver-esque pic is the best

Jesus, that felt good to read!
That picture is so badass. If Bo's not writing some lyrics, he should be. He looks like a early 70's poet/activist and how can Jim look at the camera like that?

God will forgive them. He'll forgive them and allow them into Heaven.....I can't live with that.

So bo claimed that they werent high when they thought of it. But aside from that. Do you think they smoke the dope? Part of me really believes Jim James probalby smokes a lot of pot. But another part of me thinks that hes too cool to smoke pot. idk    what do you think???
cheers.

They certainly don't look like they smoke a lot of pot...

we've been over this again and again. IMO i'm sure they've dabbled like most great bands have. they still make great music wether they do or not. and if they wanted you to know, i'm sure Jim would tell you.

at this point...does it really matter?
If you're lucky, MMJ will fill the void you didn't even know you ever had. If you're luckier, you'll get to see them live.
