Back to the subject of amphitheaters, for which —according to G’boro’s amphitheater boosters— Raleigh has set the standard:

When city leaders hatched their plans to build an amphitheater across the street from the new convention center, this probably wasn’t what they were thinking. Through an agreement with the city, Live Nation, the nation’s biggest concert promoter, books shows at the new site.

Cypress Hill’s song “Hits From the Bong” features these lyrics: “Inhale, exhale – just got an ounce in the mail. I like a blunt or a big fat cone, but my double-barrel bong is getting me stoned.”

Hey, I’m not judging, I’m just saying. I had a good time at last year’s Grateful Dead show up at the coliseum, and let’s just say smoking ordinances were not being enforced.
