Kottonmouth Kings weren’t held up by a bank robber, but they certainly encountered one! While enjoying a day off in Chicago, IL California based rip-hop hybrids the Kottonmouth Kings were woken by a bank robber fleeing the scene of the crime. The robber was passing by the Kottonmouth Kings tour bus parked outside the House of Blues, just the stolen funds he was carrying exploded with red bank dye covering the side of the bus and members of the Kottonmouth Kings crew.
The band commented about the bizarre situation:
“I stepped off the bus and this huge pile of money and red smoke comes flying at me right when I opened the door,” said Kottonmouth Kings stage manager The Taxman. “I thought I was lucky and then all the sudden ‘poof’ this cloud of red smoke came up and hit me, while some guy took off running because apparently he robbed a bank. This was our first day off after thirteen nights in a row so I was kinda out of it.”
Kottonmouth Kings were featured on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon last night. The was called “Chapter 1 Magazines Combine” where Fallon held up the issue of High Times with Kottonmouth Kings gracing the cover along with a copy of Time Magazine and told viewers if you combined the two you would create High Time.
