Worst person he’s smoked with in Hollywood

John Lennon. He was a huge lightweight. He wouldn’t smoke. He was scared of getting deported.

Dead or alive: The one person he would split a joint with

Probably Moses. I was going to say Jesus but he was such a Pacifist. Probably Moses. I like Moses. He was a badass. And he had a great publicist. God even appeared to him as a burning bush.

What Jordan Belfort AKA ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’ was really like

Jordan’s one of the few geniuses that I’ve met. He could multi-task like crazy, just a genius. As he’s proven now, he’s not only an author, he also lectures.

I was writing my book and Jordan asked me what I was doing one day in there, that was how he decided that he was going to write a book. Later on he showed me one page of what he had written, and I kind of looked it over and critiqued him and he got a little pissed off but he listened to me and he ended up writing a bestseller, “The Wolf of Wallstreet.” Kind of crazy how that worked.

The one person who’s out-smoked him

Let’s see…who’s outsmoked me…

Mike Stetler from Pueblo Colorado and he owns Marisol Therapeutics, a cannabis dispensary. He knows what he’s doing.

On his most memorable acid trip

Let’s go on this journey together.
1974.
Denver Colorado.
Actually it was Aspen. No, it was Denver.
Took a tab of Window Pane.
Then went and saw Thumbalina with my wife and 3 year old daughter.
The movie freaked me out, I mean the story was about a woman marrying a rat. The showing we wsaw was a matinee so there were kids everywhere at this screening and they were running up and down the aisles. Being on acid, you can imagine this freaked me out quite a bit. A lot, actually.
So we left right after that and my 3 year old daughter had to call me and my wife a cab to get us home.

Jimi Hendrix is the most interesting person he’s met

That’s a difficult one… I’ve been around for a while and I’ve definitely met a lot of people in strange places, but I’ve got a good story about Jimi Hendrix, who I think is one of the most interesting people I’ve ever met.

He was so mysterious, and so far ahead of everybody in his industry, but so humble. So humble. I met him because he wanted to sit in with the band I was in, Bobby Taylor and the Vancouvers, and he came to the club when we were in England and the club was empty and the door opened and Jimi walked in and there was about 300 people behind him.

He walked up to the stage and he called me by name, he said “Hey Tommy,” I handed him my guitar but he only played left handed guitar, and I was right handed, but he could play a right handed bass despite all that. We played the show and then we partied after, at the hotel room. He spent a long time in the bathroom. But we smoked weed outside waiting for him. He was a man of few words. So cool.
