Today is a big holiday in the weed smoking world. It’s April 20. Otherwise known as 4/20 Day. Many people will be gathering today to smoke. There will also be festivals and celebrations world wide. While still illegal federally, 18 US states have legalized marijuana. The ritual of 4/20 was actually started by five high school teenagers from San Francisco in the 1970s. They used to meet after the extracurricular activities of the school were over and smoke marijuana by a wall at around 4:20 pm.
In honor of 4/20, we want to acknowledge your favorite musicians who are known for loving their cannabis.
