Wiz Khalifa brings his "Waken Baken" tour to Rams Head Live

Most stars would deal with a drug bust by apologizing, fleeing to rehab, or appearing before Oprah for some major PR repair.

Wiz Khalifa bragged about his. Again and again.

"When u get this high, sometimes tha veggies get low so be smart about finding refills," he tweeted earlier this month.

Later he followed up with, "Real g's smoke when they want," and, "waken...baken...smelled it in my sleep."

All of which suggests a couple of things. One, that someone should really compile Wiz' top ten best tweets. And, that one drug bust is not going to hurt his career, instead, it'll probably enhance it.  Notice that with his tweets, he's also plugging his Waken Baken Tour.

Soon after his arrest for pot possession in November, he sold out two shows at Rams Head Live, where he will perform Monday and Tuesday.

As I blogged earlier this month, Rams Head has no plans to schedule a third show. So if you weren't one of the lucky ones to grab tickets, maybe you should get started with that top ten.
