The Dirtball's 2006 release, "Raptillion"
Tam from Marijuana Music Awards is going to be off the site for this month as she prepares for the 2010 Marijuana Music Awards. During this time, Cannabis Karri and I are going to scour our vaults for great Toker Tunes for the next few weeks.
I finally got a chance to rip the CDs that The Dirtball had given me. He’s my Oregon homie from the central part of the state near Bend. I loved his tunes “Mushroom Cloud” and “Moonshine Rhyme”, which I’ve played on previous Stashes.
Today’s tune comes from his 2006 release, “Raptillion”, and the song I’m playing for you is “Hate Bait”. Considering some of the hate I’ve been getting of late (not from you, dear Stashers, but from the hard world out there), it feels a bit cathartic.

I am the host of the NORML SHOW LIVE and The NORML Stash Blog. I'm married, live in Portland, Oregon, and I am a registered medical marijuana caregiver in this state. I've worked days as an IT geek and nights as a professional musician. Previously, I have been the host of my own political talk radio show on satellite radio. I've been the High Times "Freedom Fighter of the Month" for my work producing Oregon NORML's TV show, "A Cannabis Community Forum", and for helping to institute Portland's wildly successful medical marijuana cardholders meetings, where we help sick and disabled Oregonians acquire cannabis plant starts, learn gardening, and understand the medical marijuana law. I've dedicated my life to bringing an end to adult marijuana prohibition and re-legalizing cannabis hemp, and I'm honored to be chosen by NORML to be our daily voice.
