Radical Rant

• Answering the critics of California Legalization

Welcome back, Stashers!  I hope your Thanksgiving was chocked full of turkey, or tofurkey if you’re a vegan, or turbaconducken if you’re aiming for clogged arteries and an early death, and lots of, um … sacraments, let’s call them.

Oh, who am I kidding?  I hope you smoked yourself silly!

Who is that handsome redheaded man to the left, you ask?  Why, that’s me!  Now, I promise the Stash will never become a venue through which I will self-promote.  It is, and will always be, a showcase for artists across the country.

That being said, after hearing Chief Greenbud’s tune on the Stash last Wednesday, it made me realize that I wrote a holiday themed song about three years ago called “The Chrimmis Time Blues.”  It’s a silly song that’s somewhat pot-related, for a silly EP called Chrimmis Time! and has sat in the vault that is my computer’s hard drive ever since I wrote it.

And since it’s Monday and Monday = bluesday, I thought I’d play the song for you.  It’s nowhere near the caliber of Mr. Greenbud or any of the other music I’ve featured here, but it’s cute and funny and I think it will start off the holiday season (whatever that may be for you!) nicely.

Oh, and here’s the MP3 if you wish to download it!  The Chrimmis Time Blues

If you’d like to hear more of my music, you can head to my myspace page or to my website.  Now, enough self-promotion!  :)

It’s Monday, May 12th, and it’s 4:20 somewhere in the world. I’m your host, “Radical” Russ Belville.

Don’t forget to your Congress at 202-224-3121, and tell your representative to support Barney Frank’s HR5843 bill that would legalize marijuana for personal use. Ending prohibition starts with you!

For our Political Activism day today we’re heading on down to California to speak with Dale Geiringer, the Executive Director of California NORML. Dale’s got some updates on an upcoming vote to restrict marijuana growing in Mendocino county and the status of a bill to protect medical marijuana patients in the workplace.

For our musical break today I’m giving Cannabis Karri a break because today is my youngest brother’s 25th birthday. So today Josh Belville, my non-cannabis smoking little brother, is our featured artist and I’m playing the song he wrote because of a specific request from me, his pothead oldest brother, for a groovy tune about weed smoking. Josh comes through for all of us with a dance song called “Get Stoned Together.”

To conclude our Stash we go across the continent to Rhode Island to speak with Jesse Stout from the Rhode Island Patients Advocacy Coalition. Jesse’s got updates on the twin bills in the House and Senate that would legalize medical marijuana dispensaries in the state.

Josh is incredibly talented, and that’s not just a proud big bro talking. He’s soon to graduate Boise State University as a theater arts major. He’s a gifted actor, director, and playwright in addition to being a talented singer/songwriter and guitarist. To the best of my knowledge, Josh isn’t a cannabis consumer, but as I was checking out his music on MySpace, I told him that someday he needed to write me a song about weed so I could promote him on the Stash.

Two days later Josh knocked out a demo on his four-track recorder. It’s this cute little disco-ish tune called “Get Stoned Together”, and he plays the guitar, bass, and cheesy keyboards as well as programming the drum machine and singing all the vocals. It helps fill the gap left by the lack of marijuana love songs – there are lots of songs about loving weed, but few about loving someone by sharing weed.

Enjoy the demo. Josh is moving here to Portland in the summer, and we’ll be collaborating on this song and others (I play bass, my cousin plays drums, and his mom has a great recording studio). We’ll let you know when the finished product is ready!
