What to Do When Confronted by Police
For those not living in Colorado or Washington states, the police may all-to-often be an unwanted part of your life. We New Yawkers are painfully familiar with this situation. This video is dry at times, but it’s important information. Know your rights (via Alex Jones).
Zappa Plays Zappa
I’m going to see Zappa Plays Zappa for the 40th Anniversary of Roxy and Elsewhere…
They are killing it. Dweezil is the man. A painstaking effort into getting it all just right.
Happy New Year Begins w/ Live Legalized Pot Sale Coverage
Happy New Year! For some more than others. We’re covered the beginning of legal pot sales in Colorado live this morning. People have flocked from all over the country for this start. But just how legal is it, and can you keep your job if you start toking?
Stay tuned to Radio InfoWeb for good tuneage for your head as you stay informed on the legalization.
Those wanting to score in the Denver area had to contend with two hours in line or more. Radio InfoWeb provides programming aimed at listeners who have a buzz on, and if those on line pictured below wanted an easier wait, they could have been tuned into Radio InfoWeb on their smartphones… Crowds were well behaved, as you would expect for pot smokers. At this location some 15 miles North of Denver, and about 10 miles East of Boulder, three private security types had no trouble managing the crowd. No police were in evidence. Inside the industrial strip building, card tables, laptops, cash registers, were about all that were needed to do the deals. This was the most stripped-down, and least retail-like location our reporter (courtesy KXP1.org) saw. Many of the retailers in Denver feature lavish sales rooms and displays, as well as longer lines. The location pictured is closest to Boulder and students at UC-Boulder.
Cars provided a security blockade, but wasn’t necessary given the well behaved crowd that stretched the length of the industrial strip building, around the corner, and down the street.
Here’s a view from the parking lot of the two-hour wait-for-weed where the line stretched beyond the building housing the pot retailer, and out into the street.
This view from the street shows the tail-end of the two hour wait for weed. Lines were considerably longer in Denver, where would-be customers had to navigate a much more dense, urban landscape while queuing to score their stash. No word on how many were listening to Radio InfoWeb on their smartphones as they waited.

Happy Sad — Ohh Yeah!
Hi fellow Space Cadets…
I just found this version (the original, or so it seems) of one of our favorites by the Pizzicato Five… there’s tons of their music appearing on YouTube, and we’ll be playing the best of it for sure…
Meantime, light up!

A Man Should Never Gamble…
… more than he can stand to lose.
I played this recently in a show on Radio InfoWeb’s main stream. It was broadcast through the wormhole (the space/time conduit Radio InfoWeb uses to broadcast throughout the galaxy), so you’ll have the chance to hear it wherever and whenever you are…
I heard this originally in a live performance on WBAI way back before the NSA had instituted the surveillance state. WBAI was located in a former church, which provided a huge performance space. David Bromberg and his band played tunes like Diamond Lil, Mr. Bojangles, Tenessee Waltz, and more. I was hooked! Never had folky music sounded so psychedelic. Perhaps my ears were just chemically enhanced; you’ll have to be the judge. To this day, this tunes and others of Bromberg like it, seem to float in the air with a surreal pristine quality.
Here are a couple of other versions, found on YouTube:
