“Touring worldwide” xD
 
Thanks, but you give me way too much credit. We were a local punk band from Cincinnati. The most we toured was around the continental United States. The whole country, but still, not the entire world.
 
The music scenes in Florida, California, and New York generally had the biggest drug scenes to go along with them. Generally, you’d see people doing cocaine, crack, meth, heroin, acid, ecstasy, mushrooms, PCP / ketamine, salvia, and of course, weed was fucking everywhere.
 
I generally just stuck to the drugs that I liked, either out of fear of the scarier ones or simple non-interest. I’ve tried speed before, things like coke, and they’re just not fun for me, so that was always really easy to say no to. The scarier ones, like heroin, crack, and meth… well, I’d usually just leave the show / party if I saw those pop up. With the knowledge of what the higher-tier drugs can do, I kind of get sick to my stomach just being around them.
 
Eh, don’t feel sorry for me, man. Like I said, I knew how to say no when I wasn’t interested. I’ve never been pressured into trying something that I didn’t want to try.
 
No prob, you don’t have to go into your ket story if you don’t want to =) .
 
As for trance and other forms of electronic music, while I don’t dislike the genres, I will admit that they generally only interest me when I’m high on something. It’s all a matter of taste, I suppose. Still, there have been some pretty interesting things I’ve listened to while tripping. Shpongle comes to mind. They’re… weird lol.
 
And yeah, magic mushrooms are probably my favorite high. Intense visuals, intense audio, and a general sense of body euphoria. Completely changes any song you listen to or movie you watch while you’re still tripping.

@Joseph Raszagal  
Indeed. Your experience touring worldwide must be awful I guess(I mean the drug part). Back when I was a huge rave music documentary addict 9 out of 10 documentaries point out the hoary drug scene going in background, I haven’t had any experience with bands myself but believe me I can relate. Kinda feel sorry for you :(
 
Oh right, this K stuff traumatized me. It’s among one of many reasons I eventually part ways with drugs. How I get to know Ket’s itself a tale I can tell for days without an end but for now let’s just drop this one.
 
And yo, we’re back to trance music again XD. Normal everyday trance music is far more musical to cause any mental trouble but genres like Goa Trance and Binaural Beats are more ehh….‘functionally capable’. Former one is more of a drug than a dancefloor cracker and latter one is itself a strong substance. These goodies are not for everyone but still, both are extremely potent. Take acid and drop binaural beats at the same time and you’re officially out of this world haha.
 
I completely agree with you at the last part. Mushrooms are that intense they rekindle my childhood experiences from time to time. No wonder why natural substances fuck me up from top to bottom.

@Background Pony #76C9  
Yeah, needles are no fun xD . I just don’t understand how people can do that. I know everybody isn’t afraid of them like I am, but I just can’t wrap my head around it. And yeah, drugs can fuck you up, which is the biggest reason why I slowed down on ‘em. Back when I toured with the band and had easy access, there were weeks where I’d be high the entire time, which while tons of fun was also incredibly, massively, super-extra stupid of me… with stupid sprinkles and a big ol’ stupid cherry on top.
 
Ket gave you nightmares? Hmmm, I don’t really know what to make of that. None of my experiences with the stuff ever resulted in anything scarring. Then again, chemicals tend to do different things to each of us, so I can’t very well say that it couldn’t have done that to you. Sorry you didn’t have fun, yo.
 
Ah, I think I know what you’re talking about now. I have heard of trance music and other things like binaural stimulation before. I can’t remember exactly how it’s supposed to work, something like extremely low Hz frequencies listed to separately with both ears… I think? Don’t quote me on it.
 
If I had to pick a favorite experience, I’d probably pick mushrooms too. The visuals are much more intense than anything you’ll see on acid and there’s little to no chance you’ll end up with mushrooms that are cut with something else or otherwise altered the way acid can be messed with.

@Joseph Raszagal  
I never do injection, those stuff scares me too. Truth to be told I sometimes wish I could view drugs in the perspective I used to, as some blissful heaven-sent instead of something that might harm my mind and damage my brain.||Ketamine gave me nightmares. ||Mushroom trips are among my most cherished memories yet they disgust me now like all other substance do.
 
Goa Trance is nowhere near meditation btw, its kinda like rave music wrapped up in a psychedelic packet. Dance for hours until you wear all your senses out. Plus its heavily religion-oriented but not religious.
 
Anyways, drug is a must for everyone IMO.

@Background Pony #76C9  
I try not to go out of my way to find the trippy stuff like I did back when I was a roadie, but if I find it at a party or am offered by a friend then I’ll still go for it. I like to stick to hallucinogens and dissociatives though, things like:
 
Acid / LSD  
Mushrooms  
DMT (dimethyltryptamine)  
Ketamine / PCP  
Salvia
 
I also stick to things that I can either snort or smoke, because needles scare the crap out of me. I barely let my doctor jab a needle in me, I’m not about to try doing it for fun.
 
And, correct me if I’m wrong, but I think you’re talking about meditative trance hallucinations, right? Never really worked out for me, plus I’m not much of a spiritualist so I can’t say there’s much allure to the idea either. Not knocking the idea, by the way, it’s just not for me.

@Joseph Raszagal  
I wholeheartedily agree. Some sorts of music I wasn’t fond of find their way to my laptop after tripping but its more likely that any if all music rocks while you’re high. BTW one of my friends who’s a big Pink Floyd fan ended up traumatized dropping acid and watching porn at the same time.
 
I don’t do drugs anymore thesedays (MDMAs sounds way too risky), as Goa Trance is a perfect substitute. Big names like Astral Projection & Hallucinogen gets you higher than even LSD after prolonged listening session and you’ll likely see temples, buddhas and some religious hallucination.

@Background Pony #76C9  
I will say that a lot of music sounds amazing while tripping. After dropping a couple hits, I’m a particularly big fan of listening to Pink Floyd, Frank Sinatra, This Will Destroy You, and most stage musicals. The musicals in particular, especially the crazy bombastic songs, get super epic while you’re high out of your mind.
 
It doesn’t offer the exact same effect, but MDMA can really change how you react to music too. Just make sure you don’t get some of the shit out there that’s cut with speed (you don’t want to go into cardiac arrest, yo).

@Joseph Raszagal  
I got something between a good trip and a bad one, had a few laughs too. The biggest point though, is it left me playing classical music non-stop, these used-to-be shitty genre now sounds heavenly to my ears.

@Background Pony #76C9  
You sure that was LSD, BP? The last time I dropped acid, I just hung around with a couple of friends, watched the room move around us, and laughed my ass off for about seven hours.

LSD rocks like nothing else, just take it and grow 1000 space-like, speaker-shaped dicks with irregular folds and wombs etched. Even that is a crappy understatement.

@Adequality
 
There’s nothing unsafe about a half-bottle of vicodin, some shrooms, and a laser tag arena, dude.
 
Don’t be such a square.

hey guys, how are you liking the “safe” tag?

Later Pinkie realizes she gave Dash the wrong pills, they were stool softeners….

pink pills?  
that looks kind of like amphetamine  
like, the regular stuff  
like, the one where if you take a half pill too much you don’t feel any better just flushed and headachy and your heart keeps skipping like a broken record.  
and then the horrible experience of burning urine.  
it’s not coming out that’s bad, oh no, but after you squeezed out every last drop.  
your bladder feels like it has a thin coating of battery acid and the pain doesn’t go away until you’ve made more urine to dilute it enough, leaving you flat on your back for an hour at least just waiting for the water you guzzled to diffuse through you.
 
speed is a way better drug than coffee, less side effects, less tolerance buildup, less health complications, less chance of burning urine, etc. plus coffee is harvested using cruel heartless slave labor, whereas amphetamine is synthesized in a lab for cheap.
 
but I simply cannot comprehend how anyone could use it recreationally. taking a little doesn’t feel good, just makes you more alert. and taking more just hurts. a lot.

@Force_0f_Matter  
You are not being “excellent to each other!” Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed or something?

All in the name of “justice”.

@RainbowDash69  
Well then you can go burn in hell, and i’ll personally send you there myself.

@Ken-Oh, King of Fists  
Yes for the sake of equestrian justice, I am :)

@RainbowDash69  
What are you, a narc?

Officer, these ponies down here need to be arrested!!
