It was a night to remember in Bangor on Saturday, August 5th, 2023, when Jelly Roll brought his sold-out ‘Backroad Baptism 2023’ tour to the Maine Savings Amphitheater.

During the sold-out show, alongside Struggle Jennings and Elle King, Jelly Roll showed love for our state by reminiscing about a past trip to Vacationland with his wife, Bunnie XO, and even praising Maine’s reputation for having quality marijuana.

During his set, Jelly Roll made sure to lay it on thick when showing Maine some love, specifically calling out our state’s weed.

He told the crowd we’ve got the ‘best weed of the tour so far,’ which, coming from him, is about as high of a compliment as it gets.

Jelly Roll continued the talk about marijuana, calling for it to be decriminalized nationwide, especially in his home state of Tennessee.

It was at that point that someone from the crowd tossed a joint onto the stage, and Jelly Roll caught it, laughing, ‘If someone didn’t video that, I’m gonna hate y’all forever! Please, that was the coolest catch I’ve ever had… stoner reflexes, baby!
