Never was able to play guitar along with Playing With Fire or Lazer Guided Melodies. The guitar strings resonated too much with all the sound that was bouncing around and it was ridiculous to mess with perfection anyway.

I've only ever done it twice, basically because it is impossible to get hold of. It was fun, although the 2nd time was at Glasto and that was a bit unsettling for a bit until I got used to it.

Had mushrooms quite a few times though.

It is perhaps telling that this thread has the most floral, long winded stories :)

Its rly easy for me to get stuff here fwiw, i didnt realise it was impossibly hard elsewhere. I... liked and hated it.

Did it regularly through my teens, walking the streets of London at night and observing the ghoulish fantasyland of the urban matrix, coming down on the Heath as the sun rose. Always had a good, or at least very interesting time. I feel fortunate to have had these experiences and I miss it, but I doubt I would enjoy it as much now.

Also Set Adrift On Memory Bliss sounds SO amazing on acid.

I get that people are afraid of "not being in control" but for me it was definitely always the opposite, being sober just seemed incredibly boring and confining. It still does, sometimes.

Never tried it. Was kinda scared of it bc of my highschool obsession w "Go Ask Alice". Also looking back I don't know that I could have really relied on my circle of friends to get through a bad trip. I would def drop acid w Mr Veg if the opportunity arose, I would feel safe w him. Or at the ILX world fap with Darragh :) I'd def be willing to try in the right setting.

awww Go Ask Alice scared you? Thats pretty adorable VG (no sarcasm)

I remember in high school it was the only book in the library you had to get on a wait list for

i feel like acid can actually be p helpful to people at certain times, like it can knock you out of habitual ways of thinking, its shown promise in helping to treat addiction etc, but its also dangerous particularly for people who are predisposed to mental illness/instability

xpost: I first read it when I was 11! Alice in the closet "Get the bugs off me, get the bugs off me"...lolsy now but then it scared the shit out of me. Soooooo I read it like 20 more times, haha.

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Sunday, 11 March 2012 18:28 (twelve years ago) link

haha...of course. Ive read it at least a dozen times. Alice and Christiane F sent me straight to drugs door! I totally romanticized the whole thing.

I have 2 or 3 camcorder tapes w/ footage of friends and me tripping at age ~21 (1996) but no way to play them. And would I want to???

i cannot imagine a more embarrassing viewing experience

I know, but I'm I crazy curious to see what's on them. I keep thinking of them as some variation of Dorian Grey's portrait, but I can't make the comparison make sense.

Unrelated, but there is also a tape labeled XXX Mark and Jesse.....

one year passes...

I think I spent the next day building a lego pirate ship.

Probably the single major regret of my life tbh.

I don't think I read this post correctly.

I tried acid twice, tbh, back in the 70s. Not especially good quality stuff, either. By then acid was yesterday's news and cocaine was the up and coming drug, so demand was slack and good stuff hard to find. Therefore I have no particularly interesting fireworks to report. It was a worthwhile experiment, but not for a third time.

Aimless, Saturday, 8 March 2014 01:55 (ten years ago) link

the first couple times i did acid i don't think i did enough because basically the only effect i got was paranoia along with some visual whatevers, but the one time i did a bunch with some hippie friends (like, i dunno, 8 or 10 tabs?) i had a pretty awesome time. like i was about to type 'it didn't change my life or anything' but thinking back i can remember how i started kind of getting outside my own head that night, and considering the thoughts and feelings of the people i was with in a way i never really had, and i like suddenly understood myself as a person with the ability to influence the people around me, like make them feel good with something i'd say or whatever, and i had never really been very mindful of any of that before, and i think it was really positive.....

maybe i should do some more sometime soon, i haven't really fucked with it since then, that was a couple years ago.

i wandered barefoot on acid into a pedestrian tunnel that was carpeted with earwigs. that did nothing for my fear of earwigs.

Now 14 years since I've taken acid. I'm too old to know people who still take drugs. Well, drugs I want to take anyway, I'm sure I could still get cocaine quite easily.

Just noise and screaming and no musical value at all. (Colonel Poo), Monday, 10 March 2014 09:37 (ten years ago) link

eight months pass...

one of my recurring fantasies these days is that i visit one of my old drug buddiez and well look here! they have acid on hand and they want to do it with me right this minute. if real acid is even made anymore. guess it ranks close to surprise threesomes in the fantasy hierarchy.
