Willie and weed are two foundational tenets of this here alt-weekly, so when an opportunity presented itself, however tangentially, to combine these loves, we leapt at it.
This week s sprawling cover package – just in time for 4/20 – includes Doug Freeman s look at Luck Presents, the folks behind the annual Luck Reunion musical showcase held at Willie Nelson s ranch and now the go-to producing company for livestream events like Willie s 4th of July Picnic, Farm Aid, the Long Center s Good Vibes Only, and next week s cannabis convention, Luck Summit: Planting the Seed. Jessi Cape gets further into the Luck Summit, the Cannabis Voter Project, and the cheeky marketing push to re-dub the time between April 20 and 29 the High Holidays, while Kevin Curtin goes deep on what s happening with cannabis reform (currently a topic of interest in the Texas Lege) and Clara Wang profiles local coffee and CBD truck Radix House Coffee Shop.
