It was a complete accident. I even think the bag had gone through the washer and dryer!! Poor Grooverider. Sentences like that will keep Dubai from being as western as it would like. Not that I condone 'smuggling'...

Seriously its so easy to do!

I usually put on my winter coat for the first time in fall, and find a bud in there. Shit happens! Thank god I love in Canada.

They have jails there for expatriates that are separate from those for locals. Apparently, for the expats it's not that bad, with TV and stuff.

Being lived most of my life over there, I can say that the city has always been infamous for double standards - there's a lot more to it than the impressions they are trying to give to the world.

This is why I cleaned my laptop keyboard with compressed air the last time I travelled back.

Originally posted by jon jon I wonder if this will have any impact on DJ's touring through Dubai.

If anything, it will just act as a wake up call.... I doubt any DJ would say 'Fuck that, I'm not going to a country where I can't smoke my ganja'. lol

I wouldn't do it out of protest of their retarded laws. Then again, I'm not a DJ. Then again, Grooverider is not the kind of DJ who had problems getting gigs. I bet now he really regrets choosing to go to Dubai over a place in Europe.
