Groove To The Music
Hope everyone is doing well since my last post. It is now the middle of the summer, and it is once again time for concerts! We are able to go to concerts again this year and I, for one, cannot be more excited for my first concert in 2 years. I have been a Dave Matthews Band fan for as long as I can remember. Going to one of their concerts is basically like heaven on earth for me. From the tailgating before to every song with all of the Davespeak to the post tailgating party; Dave concerts are my favorite time of the year. At the end of the month, I will be going to Labor Dave Weekend out at the Gorge Amphitheater in Quincy, Washington. A 3-night concert and camp-out with 30,000 of my friends.
What goes best with concerts? Joints, blunts, weed, that smell lol. Maybe a little more conservative with passing joints around but everyone can still enjoy their own. I would recommend a mixture of strains when you are at a concert, with varying effects. Before going I will peruse our menu and pick out some solid smokes. Probably start off with the Trop Juice (by Middlesex Integrative Medicine) during tailgating, a great active and social strain. While in the concert, everybody always waits for that first right song and when they play it, it’s crazy how many different smells surround you. All the gassy, fruity, cheesy, sour smells that bring you right home. At some point, a blunt needs to be sparked because well… it’s a Dave concert. I will probably buy an eighth of Lilac Diesel (by Smyth Cannabis Co., coming back to the store in a few days!!!). The Silver Lemon Haze and Cherry Pie cross is a great for that lackadaisical feeling you want during a concert. Then at end the night with a night cake strain. Spark up a Wedding Cake (by Bask), crack a Levia, eat a sandwich and relax during the second tailgate while the line of cars trying to get out of the lot do not move for an hour.
Yes, I had to shout-out a few of my cultivators during the process but they grow some amazing products. Why did I explain what my typical concert experience? I wanted to portray how awesome DMB concerts are but more importantly wanted to explain, in a roundabout way, that there is a time and place for everything. For the habitual smoker, you need to be aware of what you are smoking so that you do not fade or become unproductive. For a person that gets anxiety, a high testing Sativa may not be what you need. Right place, right time. Something everyone needs to be reminded of from time to time.
But please come to the store, we have some solid products from all our cultivators. We have an amazing staff to educate or learn with you if you have any questions. We want to hear your stories, your experiences, your favorite music.
Thank you all. Hope to see everyone soon. Stay safe and healthy.
