So, who in Opeth smokes pot?

[philno]

pretty valid question iyam

 

[ever dying]

Opoth?

 

[Vivören]

Opoth smoketh nothingeth but teh tobaccoeth.

How dare you imply anything else?

 

[Saihtam]

The swedish guys also uses snus.

[Vivören]

Ah yes the Opeth boys useth the snus and always swallow teh snus juice.

In one of the biography chapters on the Opeth site, Mike alluded to Lopez and Mendez "smoking" something, and it wasn't tobacco (and like, wasn't crack either - i guess what i'm saying is the Martins like their weed).

 

[NicholasDWolfwood]

I know mendez and lopez both smoke weed, was pretty obvious by the lamentations docu. mike probably does too but who knows

 

[Sexy_Grandpa]

Haha I remember at the Auckland gig in 2006, me and my friend met some of the band members. My friend actually asked Mendez if he wanted to share a joint with us...He replied something semi-coherently about how was already really high or someting.

 

[Luann]

I think that probably mendez and lopez does.

 

[angelofdeath9308]

I've wondered this myself before. While watching Lamentations after eating some brownies, I wondered this myself before.

I can recognize a fellow fiend a mile away, and I promise you, Per burns de chronik! :Smokin:

 

[Eugenics]

Getting high makes Opeth sound fuckin amazing. So I would assume that they get high to make it amazing.

 

[Alteredmindeath]

Every Opeth album should come with a free bag of the finest green from Sweden.

funniest thread ever
and i'm anti drugs

 

[Razzor7]

Swedes are anti-drug aren't they?

I wouldn't imagine so. Swedes are pro-rationalism and pro-freedom as far as I know. Most rational, free countries are pretty accepting of cannabis use.

EDIT: Damn, I'm totally wrong. I just looked it up and apparently their drug-Nazism rivals ours here in the good ole US of A.

 

[Braighs]

pro-rationalism? It's "rational" legislators that make these arbitrary laws. Maybe if they were pro-empiricism (and this might require smoking a bowl) things would be different.

 

[BefriendedUnit]

^So all legislators have to kill a guy before decreeing that murder's a bad thing? Come on. The legislators that have outlawed cannabis and attempt to eradicate its medical use are irrational.

 

[Braighs]

People should be more discerning when throwing around philosophical terms, and more intuitive in detection of humor. ugh.
I quit the internets.

 

[BefriendedUnit]

I think we agree on the main point though.
