Devo frontman: "I smoked angel dust with Michael Jackson and Andy Warhol"

Devo frontman: "I smoked angel dust with Michael Jackson and Andy Warhol": "Paul Krassner once took acid with Groucho Marx. Similarly Devo's Mark Mothersbaugh recounts smoking PCP with Michael Jackson and Andy Warhol. From The Big Issue:

“Michael Jackson had just finished doing the movie The Wiz and still looked like Michael Jackson back then – he had an Afro and he was still black. He passed me a joint and I thought, well OK, we don’t have marijuana in Ohio so I’ll try it.”

Minutes later Mothersbaugh found himself on the dancefloor as pillars of light were swirling around “like weedcutters” knocking people over and cutting them up. He turned to his date in horror, only to hear her say: “You didn’t smoke any of that angel dust did you?”
