Hootie and the Blowfish
Who would think it.....
Who would think it.....
Famous musician does drugs. Shocked
Kinda surprising. I didn't think he was that guy.
He should have avoided walkin' to the south out of Roanoke and getting together with a Philly trucker for a nice long toke.
weed?
Those are pill eyes

It's Hootie and the Blowfish, not Hootie and the Budfish
But I really don't know. I'm assuming harder drugs for an arrest in Tennessee.
He went in the back to get high....
That dude is such a baby.

Maybe in Nashville, but given that they're one of the few states that doesn't even allow for medical, I'd imagine that outside the cities you've got plenty of small town/county cops more than willing to make that kind of bust. Kind of like in Texas.Definitely Not A Cop said:easttexasaggie04 said:

Williamson County has all the bougie Nashville suburbs. The cops pulling him over for suspected expire plates doesn't surprise me at all.

According to an arrest affidavit, Rucker was pulled over after a deputy spotted his GMC pickup with the previous version of current Tennessee license plates and suspected that it was expired.
Quote:
The deputy asked when the last time he had smoked was and Rucker reportedly stated, "Probably yesterday." After conducting a search of the vehicle, authorities found 14 unstamped purple pills in a jar and a black THC pen, the affidavit said.
Wow ... he got stopped in February of 2023. Took a year to test the pills and arrest him.

How long do you want to ignore this user?

The real question is how it took 30 years for him to get caught!

The pills were submitted to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, with analysts later confirming that they were Psilocyn, a schedule I controlled substance.
This isn't about the weed. I know that in the Nashville metro area weed and vape pens are ignored by the cops and DA.
It comes down to the pills.
Quote:
Psilocin (also known as 4-HO-DMT, 4-hydroxy DMT, psilocine, psilocyn, or psilotsin) is a substituted tryptamine alkaloid and a serotonergic psychedelic substance. It is present in most psychedelic mushrooms[url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psilocin#cite_note-3][3][/url] together with its phosphorylated counterpart psilocybin. Psilocin is a Schedule I drug under the Convention on Psychotropic Substances.[url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psilocin#cite_note-4][4][/url] Acting on the 5-HT2A receptors, psilocin modulates the production and reuptake of serotonin.[url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psilocin#cite_note-5][5][/url] The mind-altering effects of psilocin are highly variable and subjective and resemble those of LSD and DMT.
Maybe so, but to me he'll always be a faded pop artist who's "Gone Country."Andrew Dufresne said:EclipseAg said:

Should have gone to the clink for what he did to wagon wheel.
Life's an endless party, not a punch card.
He was never a traditional pop artist though. Hootie & The Blowfish was a Southern rock, college bar band, that spent almost a decade playing small venues that eventually rode the wave of the 90's back when traditional bands were part of the pop mainstream. When the musical landscape shifted, they were much closer to country music than the pathetic remnants of rock. He was very much a singer-songwriter, and fits in just fine with modern country.EclipseAg said:Maybe so, but to me he'll always be a faded pop artist who's "Gone Country."Andrew Dufresne said:EclipseAg said:

We saw the Hootie reunion tour at the The Woodlands several years ago and it was great.
At least Darius wasn't trying to sneak pills across the border like Johnny Cash.

Maybe Achane will help turn things around and he won't be so sad anymore.
