Ed Rosenthal's Wonders of Cannabis Festival

Thanksgiving weekend -- You've played it straight through the family dinner and here comes your reward: the first NY Wonders of Cannabis Festival! Direct from California, the combination of concert and expo, will New Yorkers a taste- and smell- of the San Francisco lifestyle. Wonders of Cannabis launches at noon with performances by Tony Vacca & World Rhythms followed by Juggling Suns and DC-based reggae band See-I. The show will climax with an exclusive appearance on the East coast by headliners Kottonmouth Kings, who have recently released "The Green Album". "The Green Album" is loaded with ganja worship, solid beats, clever lyrics, and party appropriate tunes perfect for the KMK's stoner fan base. It's also an ecological call to "plant a seed for the next generation". Part of the proceeds from the album will be donated to environmental causes. Also not to be missed, joint-rolling contests hosted by comedian Ngaio Bealum and "Admiral Ed". Prizes will be awarded for the fastest, longest, fattest, and best one-handed joints. Tickets on sale in advance at www.wondersofcannabis.com and also at the door. Get ready for Wonders of Cannabis NYC. Spread the word.
