Sorry to hear that Ben. 

At the rehearsal rooms a few weeks ago there was a sludge band hotboxing the gents toilet. 4 blokes with a bong by the urinals...what the fuck! I think they were banned as we haven't seen (or smelled them) since. 

Wow. 

Sounds like a band going places lol. 

I agree. Genuinely can't think of one single band that ever did well while taking drugs.

Exactly.

Even Cliff Richard injected heroin into his ballsack before writing 'Mistletoe and wine'.

I've thought about doing that a few times whilst being forced to listen to it...

Without weed this would be a shorter song

Excellent, for a change I really did laugh out loud.

my point is not about the effects of the drug on the human body, it's about the associated criminal element that goes hand in hand with obtaining a controlled substance. 

So decriminalising it (it is partly decriminalised already) would meet with your fullest support I assume?

Re aggression, there's SO many studies that proof conclusively that alcohol is simply the most destructive drug in society when it comes to aggression, domestic violence and social violence. One study suggested it was 40 times worse than weed.

The Police themselves would absolutely agree with that too.

Well according to the .Gov website it's a Class B narcotic, possession wins you 5 years in jail, an unlimited fine or both. 

The government (under advisement from experts prob far more qualified than you or I) deem it as dangerous as Barbiturates, Amphetamines and Ketamine. 

It was reclassified at the insistence of  then PM, Gordon Brown, AGAINST professional advice, as it goes...

So......... 
they kicked me out of the band.

Wow, really? Good for them. At least they can be in a band now where the music can be fun.

Dick move.

Sure was, well you have quoted it now so can't be deleted.

 he asked us for advice, which we all gave, which was to leave and he got fired. 

A post being quoted hasn't stopped us before, especially when there's a clear rule #1 violation. Up to the other admins.

Everyone else seems to be able to manage grown-up sympathy, you could always try it instead of smug self-satisfaction.

I honestly took Des's post as a joke...

Simple rule of thumb. Work first, party afterwards.

Bet you end up playing your Tele in this band and the others end up saying "dude, what are you smoking?"
