Linda Mason and Brian the Red from Oregon NORML, tabling at the Blazed & Confused tour
My skull (actual size) - two of these were onstage for Slightly Stoopid's set
Stephen Marley and backup singers
That little boy rocked the whole night, waving the Rasta flag
Marley's bass man, laying down the reggae groove
Signing boobs, the sign that you've arrived as a musician
A REAL Slightly Stoopid fan, she works for a local newspaper
Bobby B, Pimpin Steve, and Mark in the Coliseum Beer Garden
Damien Marley joined Stephen onstage later as the kid jams the reggae skank on guitar!
Slightly Stoopid stage getting set up with skulls and island theme
Tha Doggfather in the heezie fo'sheezie
Love the lowrider bike frames for the keyboards and drums!
Portland loves Snoop D-O-double-gizzle, fo'shizzle!
From behind the “Tales from the Crip” backdrop backstage
From the other side of the front row, fans dig on Marley
Bobby B, Snoop Dogg, and Pimpin Steve backstage at Blazed and Confused in Portland
Young couples await the show
Don't be afraid, it's only NORML!
Are we stoned, or are you people blurry?
Everybody we find is smoking these invisible joints...
Are you ladies with the blurry people a couple of photos back?
It's Peace Signs 3 - Metal Horns 3 in the battle of suburban white kid gang signs.
Amp Energy Drink. It's tasty and it makes pretty women like you.
Yes, I'm not wearing my sunglasses, and I don't care! I'm a rebel!
NORML? You mean marijuana? At a Snoop Dogg / Stephen Marley / Slightly Stoopid concert? Really? Wanna beer?
Yes, we love NORML! We love marijuana! Wanna beer?
Oh yes it's ladies night, and the feel is right, oh yes it's ladies night, oh what a night...
Ah, the Jack Daniels label knock-off t-shirt - a staple of concert dress.
One thing about beer... you never see two guys passing one beer back and forth to each other.
Hey, take our picture in front of this blinding white wall, will ya? It'll make it easy to crop us out and Photoshop onto a Hawaiian beach.
Furniture? We don't need no steenking furniture! Vamanos!
Once again, the mysterious invisible joint returns!
Are you guys sure this is the Jonas Brothers concert? It sure sounds awfully loud...
What do you mean there is only one men's and one women's restroom here?
Hey, dude, come here, we're taking pictures in front of the Oregon NORML sign!
Ah, young love in all its resplendent variety.
Back where the photographer is from, they are known as “Los Doyers”
Just a concert stop before the NW World Reggae Fest
They're not going to see these photos at work, are they?
I can't decide between “I think I would end up crosseyed” and “Do those stars mean you're some kind of general?” as a caption.
Honey, meet me between the S's and the W's
Peace Signs 1 - Metal Horns 1 - Invisible Joint 1 -- it's the 420-friendly concert hat trick!
Oh my god, I can't believe she really came to the concert with me! (Wait, is that a “Westside” and a filtered Swisher Sweet? Young man, please.)
“This photo is for what? NORML? Hide your face, kid!”
Don't worry, your folks don't surf the internet anyway.
Here begins the segment of the gallery where Junior rounds up women and tells them to stand for a photo with me, because... well, because.
Blue streaked hair to the left, blue scarf to the right, a nice balance, don't you think?
The guy not seen on the right only agreed to this photo if I wouldn't crop him out to show only me and his lady. I would never have done that if he hadn't mentioned it.
Like I always say, when working for NORML, the salary sucks but the fringe benefits are awesome.
Whoa! Now there are three invisible joints!
Another shot of me and the skull backstage
The ever-elusive CNN star Junior Martinez!
Marley, Snoop, and Stoopid surfboards near the tiki hut backstage.
Mark, Bobby B, and Pimpin Steve on the concert floor
The Marleys meet up with a Portland police officer near the buses where nothing, absolutely nothing illegal was going on.
Happy to be promoting Oregon NORML
Somebody in this photograph has spent a lot of time being photographed in the past, I think.
It should be noted at no time did Junior or I direct any poses in any of these photographs. We thank our models for their personal creativity and self-expression.
A Peace Sign and Metal Horns, an Invisible Joint, a double Invisible Joint, and, well, I hope it's a cigar...
Some sort of lifeguards have saved the Oregon NORML Adopt-a-HIghway
Dude! Like, I drove by there just the other day! Awesome! Totally awesome!
Why won't this girl pay attention to me?
Did someone slip me the brown acid or does that woman have two heads?
Oooh, the Oregon NORML Adopt-a-Highway is better than a date with Bret Michaels any day!
I'm the regional sales manager for a John Deere tractor dealership in Lincoln, Nebraska... what do you mean, “what do I do for a living?” I rock... THAT'S what I do for a living!
Yes, I stuck my backstage pass to my chest. Men were always looking there anyway, so why not?
“You sure you want my picture with the Oregon NORML Adopt-a-HIghway? I'm not a cute female, you know. All right, go ahead.“ (And the first “Hang Loose” of the night!)
“You will not litter on this highway” “No, mustn't litter” “We get very angry when you litter, don't we?” “Yes, we are very angry at naughty litterbugs” “Sister, shall we tell this worm how we treat naughty litterbugs?” “Yes, sister, let's tell him!”
Well, the tour is called “Blazed and Confused”.
Nobody is having more fun than these two!
Baseball caps not mandatory.
MIles from Slightly Stoopid jams
It don't get no cooler than inside the front row shooting pics of Snoop Dogg!
Stephen Marley performing one of his father Bob's great tunes, “Buffalo Soldier”.
Snoop asks the crowd “what's my favorite drink?”
