Somebody probably wishes they would have kept their mouth shut about now:
FEDERAL MP Peter Garrett is staying tight-lipped over comments that he burned the midnight oil smoking marijuana with Silverchair’s Daniel Johns and U2′s Bono.
The rock star turned politician lay on a bed smoking joints with the frontmen and Johns’ wife, singer and actress Natalie Imbruglia, Johns told radio today.
But he later dismissed the drug comments as a dumb joke, saying in an official statement he felt sick that he may have caused embarrassment.
Johns told Triple J the group got together in Sydney to listen to demos for Silverchair’s latest album, Young Modern.
Johns, whose band is on a national tour with fellow Aussie band Powderfinger later this year, recounted smoking marijuana in Sydney in the radio interview.
"He (Bono) buzzed me over to the house that he was staying at in Sydney and asked if I’d play the demos and it was really one of the most surreal moments in my life," Johns said.
"It was me and Natalie and Peter Garrett and Bono laying on Bono’s bed smoking joints listening to Young Modern demos."
Yeah, sure it was a dumb joke. Really who is surprised that Peter Garrett and Bono are smoking dope? Everytime I see Peter Garrett on the news he looks like he is high on something anyway.
