 CA—Music and politics will punctuate the Cannabis Day 2005 celebration in 
 San Francisco. The celebration, already in it’s 6th year, has steadily 
 gained steam as the Bay Area’s premier cannabis event. Attendees in 
 excess of 10,000 are expected as notable speakers Assemblyman Mark Leno, 
 Godfather of Medicinal Marijuana Dennis Peron, Author/Activists Jack Herer, 
 Guru of Ganja Ed Rosenthal, Angel Raich, Chris Conrad and Mikki Norris, 
 Attornies J. Tony Serra and Omar Figueroa, CA NORML’s Dale Gehringer and 
 a host of others address the burning issue of medicinal cannabis, the drug 
 war and the future of industrial hemp in our society.  Musicians for 
 Medical Marijuana will headline an all-star day of music featuring the 
 Caribbean Allstars, Alphabet Soup, Terry Haggerty and Harvey Mandel, Los 
 Marijuanos and the Lynnette Shaw Band. The state of the art sound system 
 will feature new hemp cone speaker technology developed by Marin County’s 
 A Broun Soun, Inc.  San Francisco Medical Research Foundation will set up a 
 44’ diameter healing dome designed to inspire, delight, heal and 
 enlighten all who participate. Therapuetic massage, acupuncture and 
 chiropractic adjustments will be provided in a sonic immersion bath of 
 harmonic sound frequencies creating a deep meditative/contemplative 
 experience.  “There is an awful lot going on with cannabis in our culture 
 right now despite the federal government’s backward position,” said 
 Michael Foley organizer of San Francisco Cannabis Day 2005. “As usual 
 Assemblyman Mark Leno is on the cutting edge of cannabis politics with AB 
 1147, which would remove the current ban on the production of industrial 
 hemp in California. The United States Supreme Court will have another 
 chance before June to rule on commerce and medicinal marijuana in the case 
 of Angel Raich and Diane Monson. San Francisco Supervisor Ross Mirkirimi is 
 working on regulation, which would further legitimize medical cannabis in 
 the City. Americans for Safe Access is awaiting a decision on a petition 
 filed with  the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services to address the 
 federal rescheduling of cannabis. San Francisco Cannabis Day 2005 is part 
 of a worldwide event to draw attention to and end the destructive 
 prohibition on cannabis that plagues our planet. Science and public opinion 
 have reached critical mass. Let’s make this change already so we can get 
 on with other important issues facing our nation and the world.”
