“There’s a thing I did on my whole tour called smoke by the brain..so there’s a part of the show that goes to a collage of all the songs that talk about weed..and everybody knows I have a medical cause for marijuana but for me I don’t smoke it on stage…its a fake light like the way they have the pre-rolled tobacco.. so at every show I fake it..now that I gave the secret away..but in certain cities like Amsterdam and LA i definitely did..but as far as in places where I can get into trouble I avoid it. It was the press over there that made a big fuss about the whole thing, everything else was cool.It was just the press, so it made it seem like it was a situation but it wasn’t. ”
