Traveling At 111MPH: A Leading Cause of The Blues
John Popper, lead singer of Blues Traveler, got popped (go ahead and groan) speeding in his Mercedes SUV at a blistering 111 miles per in the great state of Washington. Well, technically he didn’t as the vehicle was being piloted at the time by a buddy as they were returning from Texas to Popper’s Pacific Northwest home.
It wasn’t until after the vehicle was searched that Popper got cuffed. Seems the cops turned up 4 rifles, 9 handguns, a switchblade, taser, various emergency vehicle lights, and (gasp!) some pot! Damn hippies.
Jump over to the story for pics of the firesticks and the neat-o CTU-style hidden compartments Popper has built into his ride. Apparently, Popper worries he’ll be caught unarmed when the shit comes down, man…
