is upon us and we all have a fresh new start. All of us are blessed with the same 365 days to become, experience and accomplish great and amazing things. As we all turn a new blank page and enter a new chapter in life, bear in mind, nothing is already written. You are the author of your own story. Make it great. There will be fresh questions to be asked and embraced. New answers will be discovered and in turn, breathed in this transformative year of optimism and self-discovery.

Our great nation is going through an unprecedented transformation and we are all at the helm of this evolutionary charge. We still need to remain responsible and lead by example. Collectively, we to continue to dispel any negative connotation and destigmatize the notion of what cannabis users use to be. All eyes are on us. Now is not the time for complacency. Remember, only dreams give birth to change.

NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS WORDS BY: PATRICK TAYLOR PRESIDENT, CALIFORNIA SMOKE FREE ORGANIZATION

T #21 P 6

he Vapor Game Plan 2018 was held by the Vapor Technology Association this December in Chicago.

Focused on State Strategy and Retail, the VTA had a tremendous list of influential owners, leading advocates, and elected representatives who shared their views on where the vapor industry stands today, and where it is going.

Make no mistake about it, many eyes are on our industry, including those of elected officials. The choices we make in the months to come will determine our future.

Many industry leaders show a willingness to preemptively engage with these issues, marketing products responsibly and packaging them appropriately.

There is much to be hopeful for, and much work to be done.

One key point that was repeated many times throughout the event was the idea that all politics are local. Namely, policies are often implemented at the local, or municipal level before being applied broadly across an entire state. One critical issue is beginning to emerge at the state level: flavor bans.

In California, these have already been introduced in several cities/ counties in NorCal – San Francisco, Berkeley, Los Gatos, Palo Alto, Santa Clara County, Contra Costa County and Oakland. These measures were adopted as a way to curtail the widespread use of menthol cigarettes, and as vapor products are currently governed under tobacco deeming regulations – they are included in the ban. As we have recently seen by legislature introduced in New York, it is only a matter of time before these local bans become state, or possibly even federal, bans.

• Industry professionals should take note that according to the Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

THE WORD TOKEWELL MAGAZINE

(ANPRM), the FDA is focused on: • The role of flavors in youth attraction and adult cessation • Product standards – ie battery safety and child exposure to liquid nictoine.

Many industry leaders show a willingness to preemptively engage with these issues, marketing products responsibly and packaging them appropriately. Unfortunately, the actions (or inaction) of bad actors is always the easiest point out. In 2018, the CSFO believes the actions of the industry leaders in our state will set the tone for the future of our industry. By continuing to engage with elected officials, by welcoming smaller companies as well as retailers into the organization, we intend to keep the vapor industry strong in California for years to come.

DON’T LET 4 MORE YEARS, BECOME 4 MORE YARDS

A

s we enter the new year, 2018 is already shaping up as a dangerous period for vaping. While FDA has provided a four-year extension to file applications for approval of vapor products, it could easily be considered four more yards of rope for the industry to hang itself with.

#21 P 8

Unfortunately, the industry’s reaction thus far has been to continue business as usual without significant engagement on legislative issues.

Four more years comes at the cost of increased state and local activity from anti-vaping opponents. These are the types of battles that will wear us down fast, having the effect of a “death by a thousand cuts”.

The flavor bans spreading throughout Northern California in the latter third of 2017 have already kicked off this direct attack at local levels.

Thanks to the efforts that included a wider coalition of other retailers, stakeholders, tobacco companies, and the harm reduction arguments made by Not Blowing Smoke, not all of these flavor bans saw the light of day. Some were amended to include either exemptions for tobacco retail license holders or limited to certain distances from schools and playgrounds. But make no mistake, attempts to ban vapor products

WORDS BY: STEFAN DIDAK | FOUNDER, NOTBLOWINGSMOKE.COM

outright (the effect of a flavor ban) will extend nationwide in 2018.

In June 2018, the Let’s Be Real San Francisco referendum will be on the ballot and voters in the city will decide whether the city should prohibit the sales of flavored tobacco products, including all vapor products and menthol cigarettes. Flavor bans tend to focus on menthol cigarettes while quietly including vapor products. To our opponents, this is a “social justice” issue in which they engage in identity politics, pitting various minorities against each other, to further their policy goals, conveniently ignoring that minority groups tend to smoke at higher rates and are often underserved by both quit smoking services and the vapor products industry.

The ultimate goal of creating a patchwork of incompatible local ordinances is to press for state legislation banning flavors everywhere. That is a very serious threat and one that if acted upon, will wipe out the vapor products industry of any state with a stroke of a Governor’s pen. Similarly, FDA recently put out an advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM) in which they are addressing the potential regulation of flavors.

Late last year, these bans spread to Southern California and we expect that many more municipalities will be introducing similar ordinances.

The Public Health Law Center, a nonprofit which provides guidance and model legislation to many tobacco control organizations, has already communicated that Clearway in Minnesota is adopting the California playbook to start moving on flavor bans. Current indications also show that several other west coast states will be seeing local flavor bans pop up.

#20 P 9

2018 is not the year to let our guard down. When asked to meet with local officials to address bad legislation, take the time to do so.

When asked to get your customers involved, put in the effort. We may not be able to win every local battle but delaying their attempts at killing the industry before the FDA gets its chance to do so is still a viable strategy while several other efforts are ongoing to try and preserve as much as we can.

ichelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simon or better known simply as Michelangelo was an Italian sculptor, painter, architect, and poet of the High Renaissance era, who exerted an unequaled impact on the evolution of Western art. Widely considered the preeminent living artist during his existence in the 16th century, he has since been labeled as one of the celebrated artists of all time and his works rank among the most prominent in existence. During his life, Michelangelo was frequently called Il Divino meaning "the divine one" which a testament to his genius. His peers often lauded his

terribilitĂ - his uncanny ability to introduce a sense of wonderment.

Chuey Quintanar would similarly be lauded by this previously lowbrow line of art - fine line, black and grey realistic Chicano style art. In fact, he would be considered a contemporary artist that served to elevate this art form as evidenced by his work which temporarily resides in a traveling exhibit at the Natural history Museum. A congenitally talented, young Chuey Quintanar had an affinity for drawing.

Born in Mexico City, Chuey came to the United States at the age of 7 and was raised in Long Beach, California. His God-given talent of art and a good head on his shoulders didn't make him a product of his environment, but more of a visual ambassador through lead or charcoal.

His peers immediately recognized his innate ability to draw and at the age of 14, one of his homies built him a homemade tattoo machine and urged him to give it a go. "The first time

I touched the machine, something just clicked inside me", says Chuey.

He reluctantly started tattooing and the neighborhood homies became his canvas. A young Chuey quickly came to the realization that he was good, "early on when I got the hang of it, people started paying me and I thought, "Why are you paying me?"

I was doing it for fun. When people started giving me money, I just started tripping out.", reminisces Quintanar, Fast forward to 2018, Chuey Quintanar is one of the most sought-after tattoo artists in the world today. With celebrity clients coupled with customers all over the globe and an exhibit at the Natural History Museum, Chuey has cemented his legacy as a living legend in the tattoo game and his terribilitĂ .

How long have you been tattooing and how you get into the game?

I have been drawing my whole life since I was a little kid. My friends knew I was a good artist and one of them made me a homemade tattoo machine at 14 years old and said I should start tattooing because I think you'd do pretty good. Tattooing wasn't something I had in mind, tattooing just found me.

What was your reaction like going from lead or charcoal to a tattoo machine?

The first time I touched the machine, something just clicked inside me.

Before that, I was super scared to actually tattoo. But once I started, I really fell in love with it from that moment.

How did you manage to avoid the pitfalls of living in a rough environment?

Living in a rough neighborhood exposes you to many things but I always turned to art as a way of expression. Even when I first started tattooing, my own family criticized me, but I always considered it art and I was good at it. I believed in myself and kept at it until people recognized what I always knew I was capable of.

When did you realize this was going to be your career?

Very early on. Once I got the hang of it, people started paying me and I thought, "why are you paying me?" I was doing it for fun. When people started giving me money, I just started tripping out. I realized that if I

could get paid for something I love to do, this was it for me.

Talk about your transition from amateur to world acclaimed artist.

For a lot of black and grey artists, the only way to get recognized was through the homies. Once I was able to breakthrough into the industry using professional equipment, it was a night and day difference. It took me like 8 years when I was 22 to start getting recognized for my work. What I was doing then wasn't very common, and it took years for my art to be recognized.

What are your thoughts on social media and the impact its had on tattooing?

Now it's a whole new world of tattooing.

New artists can buy the videos or attended a seminar and they're really good. The problem is, they never had to earn their stripes. They never apprenticed, or had to go through the trials. They have no knowledge of tattoo history or traditions.

They got into the game to make quick money and wanted to be rockstars instantly. That's the negative part. It's also a great tool because it connects amazing artists from all over the world instantly.

Talk us about your CBD usage and how it's helped change your life.

One of my friends had major back problems from tattooing to the point he had to get surgery. All of a sudden when I saw him again, he was walking around fine and pain-free. He told me he doesn't even take painkillers anymore, just CBD. It helped him with his back pain, hand pain, and arthritis. I also have back pain and arthritis in my hands from tattooing.

I absolutely hate taking pills and I started taking CBD as well and its crazy. My hands always cramp up and they're good now.

It helped me get through long sessions and even when I get home and cant go to sleep, I'll take CBD and it knocks me out.

My wife takes CBD as well. She's got joint problems and its helped her too.

Where is the tattoo industry 10 years from now?

We've been trying to elevate tattooing and aim to be recognized as a legitimate art form. The museum exhibit is definitely a step in the right direction - be in more museums like fine art.

There are a lot of good artists that are trying to take tattooing to the next level. I always want to go forward and never backward. It's given me everything I have today. Many cultures and countries still have banned tattoos and have a negative stigma and our work being displayed at prestigious museums might help people recognize tattooing for what it is, an amazing art form.

What other projects are you currently involved in?

I started a company called TAC Sciences. We develop products for tattoo artist and consumers; like our numbing cream and SPF tattoo aftercare.

We have a full staff of dermatologists who helped design and develop our products..

ike fashion, music genres evolve and then come back around full circle. Groups break up and then reunite. Some bands today continue to thrive off their former glory, even bringing onboard new members to necessitate the same formula of success. You know the old adage, "If it ain't broke, why fix it?"

Arnel Pineda, for instance, was wondrously blessed with the opportunity to succeed the irreplaceable Steve Perry largely due to the fact that they both nearly sound identical. Arnel is essentially performing large-scale arena karaoke of Journey's greatest hits, and it works. On the flipside of the coin, you also have legendary bands with different frontmen to pick from such as Van Halen or Van Hager. Both have experienced a similarly debatable formula for success. It’s akin to dining at your favorite Michelin starred restaurant with the cuisine crafted by a different James Beard award-winning chef. You still love it. It’s just different.

Sublime - the iconic multi platinum Ska/Punk band from Southern California went through a similar transition.

The boys from the LBC have gone through an unfathomable tragedy with the untimely death of their lead vocalist Bradley Nowell. They were at a crossroads musically and the band dissolved shortly after. In 2008, during a RAWsession video shoot, original Sublime member Eric Wilson along with a young songwriter and producer Rome Ramirez formed what is called today, Sublime with Rome.The fellas from Long Beach were determined not to be a tribute band of Sublime’s original material, but to evolve and modernize the sound. Like Arnel Pineda, Bradley Nowell was irreplaceable and left

impossible shoes to fill. The task to win over the original fanbase was insurmountable.

Then again, Rome's goal was never to play father to stepchildren, but to add his own flavor to the mix while paying homage to the OG’s and Sublime with Rome is proof positive of that.

Today, Sublime with Rome is evolving the ska/punk sound that brought so much love and success, and is reinvigorating the genre.

When we asked what their new music is going to sound like, Rome had this to say, "It's still going to have that Sublime feel, but

we're going to try and incorporate different types of lyrics and sounds. We're just gonna switch it up from what you expect of the band." Fresh off their wildly successful Sirens tour, the trio is set to record new material for 2018 to bless the masses. Getting time to record while you're on the road is kind of challenging. "In like two weeks from now, we'll be heading out to El Paso, Texas to record. We'll be out in the middle of nowhere and just really catch a good vibe. We like to go out there in the desert and vibe. It allows you to step out your comfort zone and create a whole new world.", says Ramirez.

TOKEWELL MAGAZINE

Sublime with Rome has also expanded their repertoire into the burgeoning cannabis industry as well. With their affinity for greenery coupled with their global music platform, they've partnered with some of the very best in the game and it makes perfect sense.

"The culture of our band and cannabis lifestyle is a huge part of our lives and it was important to us to partner with the best people to support products that we actually use.", says Rome when asked why they got into the cannabis industry.

JAN/FEB 201 8

Rome Ramirez took time out of his incredibly hectic schedule to talk about what to expect with their new music and the band's entrepreneurial projects in the booming multibillion-dollar cannabis industry.

You just wrapped up the Sirens tour in 2017, how was that?

It was awesome. We were on the road nonstop pretty much for 9 months.

Are you working on new material for 2018?

sound Sublime with Rome has cultivated?

It's still going to have that Sublime sound, but we're going to try and incorporate different types of lyrics and sounds. We're just gonna switch it up from what you expect of the band. We just want to do it a little different and we can really hone in on the inspiration of different sounds and stuff.

What are your thoughts on the current state of music today?

It kind of shifts you know. I feel like we're really in a weird place where people can't really compare to any other time and history.

So, that alone, I think it's really cool. It's a very interesting time to be a musician and a fan.

I think that's where we are at now ready for the next Clash you know like the next Rolling Stones or something.

Were you always a frontman before Sublime?

first love was being in my basement recording, producing and writing new music. As I grew older, it just kind of strengthened. I just wanted to do it more and more, and I taught myself all the programs and audio engineer software and by the time I ended up joining Sublime, I caught a publishing deal and then I was able to really work with a bunch of writers and producers and artists.

Talk about your production work outside of Sublime.

When I'm not on the road with Sublime I'm always working with as many different artists as I can. I like working with the youngin's cause they're always on the cusp of new shit.

They're all fresh, and it reminds me of why I got into music in the first place.

Where do you do most of your production work?

We have a really bad ass spot over in Hollywood Hills. It's a house that I converted into five recording studios. We have three record labels running out there and we're just growing and utilizing all our new sources and giving back.

Are you a Sativa, Hybrid or Indica guy?

Predominantly, I'm an Indica person but I think they all have their place. Hybrids are whatever to me. I like Indicas that's what I typically go for.

Does cannabis contribute to your creative process?

Honestly, I been smoking weed so damn long. I don't know. It IS my creative process,

how I pay my bills process, how I… everything. It's just my process.

Do you prefer flower, vape or wax?

not sure, and it's still in its infancy. From a medical standpoint, it's amazing, and I’m excited about all the doors that are being unlocked to utilize the plant to help people across the world.

These days, I prefer concentrates. I like wax, shatter dabs. I think its way cleaner. I used to smoke bongloads a day, but now its dabs for me.

You're also an entrepreneur - what projects have you been working on?

Cannabis is trending towards being legal in all 50 states, what are your thoughts on that?

You know I've always been for it, but now, I'm not so sure. I've always looked at it from a macro perspective. Part of me is excited what the future will hold. But the other part of me isn't looking forward to it being corporate with shareholders and I'm

Right now, other than the label and the band, we have quite a few projects in the cannabis space. We have a collaboration with Stick E Vapes for a few unbelievable flavors of premium vape pens throughout California… and that is doing really well. We took a good amount of time working with the Stick E Vape team to develop everything from the flavor profile of the oil in the pen, down to the type of components used to deliver the best possible experience.

We also just finished up a partnership with WonderBrett, one of the guys that built the cannabis community here in Los Angeles, and we were really proud about. We developed a strain together with Wonderbrett and named it “Orange Dynamite”... it’s amazing. We were also lucky enough to work with industry titan Dixie Elixir to bring to market a chocolate bar in Colorado, also named “Orange Dynamite”, that packed a hell of a punch at 100mg.

It’s amazing how many people want to experience cannabis in a safe way… I think we’ve sold just over 100,000 bars out there.

We had a collab with Honey Supply Glass and got to develop both a flower and oil rig that worked really and are sold at a price point almost everyone can afford. And of course, because no one likes sticky fingers,

we did a grinder with Phoenician. The culture of our band and cannabis lifestyle is a huge part of our lives and it was important to us to partner with the best people to support products that we actually use.

What’s Sublime with Rome doing this year in the cannabis industry?

BIG BIG BIG THINGS! Our band was born in Long Beach, has deep roots in SoCal, and with CA finally allowing adult-use for cannabis, I think the time is ripe for us to develop a home for our fans to experience the cannabis products we love, made and sold by people we trust. With that in mind, Sublime with Rome has partnered with one of the top retailers in the country, ShowGrow, to help support them in opening 5 adult-use cannabis retail locations in the city of Long

Beach during the course of 2018. The guys behind ShowGrow really know their shit, their staff takes care of everyone like they were a rockstar, and the weed‌. Well lets just say that speaks for itself. We don't think we could have found a better partner, and are excited to have a home to connect with our cannabis community.

Sublime with Rome is committed, same as its always been, to continuing to work with the cannabis industry for many years to come through our music, our festival High and Mighty, and the products and companies that we partner with to help spread the love!
