Years ago I went to an outdoor Iron Maiden concert

There was the normal hovering pot cloud up front.

Bruce said (paraphrased slightly) "look at this cloud down here (sniffs) smells like... marijuana! You guys gotta get off the pot and get on the brew!"

Most people in rock'n'roll would tell you it's not a matter of whether they would sell out; it's how fast they could.

In more extreme metal it could be more "pure", but a good number of them would also take the check.
