LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) - Buddy Holly put Lubbock on the rock ‘n’ roll map with his groundbreaking music of the 1950s. His music laid the groundwork for the constant rhythm, lyrics and melodies from scores of Lubbock musicians. They continue to write and perform a wide array of music from country and western to jazz to modern-day hip-hop.
To honor those who continue writing and performing original music, the annual “Lubbock Music NOW” edition highlighting the best of the current local talent is accepting entries for the 2021 album. Artists and songwriters may submit their application through May 31, 2021.
If this column comes across as fuzzy-minded, please cut me some slack. Perhaps we can blame THC, the chief mind-altering substance in marijuana.
Though possession of small amounts of weed wonât be legal in Virginia (for adults age 21 and up) until July 1, THC-infused gummies and vape cartridges already are being sold in smoke shops and CBD boutiques around the Roanoke Valley.
Some even sell THC brownies.
You can find the products along Brambleton Avenue in Roanoke County, or on Main Street in Roanokeâs Wasena neighborhood, and occasionally at convenience stores in other locations. Theyâre pretty cheap, too. I recently bought a pack of 20 for $40.
