Now this is pretty good synergy: the Colorado Symphony, which is cash-starved like almost every other arts organization in the country, has announced it will play a series of "cannabis-friendly" fundraisers, sponsored by the legal marijuana industry. It should almost go without saying that they have a cute name, too: "Classically Cannabis: The High Note Series," and the goal is to increase membership, possibly by trying to convince weeded-up hipsters that Classical is just like heavy metal, only with more brass. We're hoping that they'll commission a new arrangement of a John Cage classic and call it 4'20".

Just open the box and pour yourself some cannabis.
They must be pretty desperate for money. Colorado is a bit schizophrenic - they could land the pothead crowd but lose the champagne set. And I&#039;d guess that the latter represent a big chunk of their donors.
I recognize your avatar as the &quot;sad cat&quot; from <i>Allegro non Troppo</i> which incidentally happens to be a great thing to watch stoned out of your mind.
