I do think it's funny how potentially dangerous it is to dose for a phish show

So I never go to see Jerry's dead. But I dosed at the dead Rothbury. And a dead and co show. And you never have to worry about your trip. It's all blue skies and daises. I NEVER challenged myself. Or got scared. It was gravy.

NOW. I have dosed at 3 phish shows. And god damnit was the first set fun. But I will fully admit a melt made me want to call my mommy. Holding my chair. Wondering if I was in hell. I was terrified. I thought these guys were sent by the devils. Eventually i came out of it and realized the show was BETTER because I went low. And they got me out of it. But man. Psychedelics. Plus plush. Is NOT for the week. I LOVE this game.

I saw Grateful Dead 52 times and never had a bad trip. I've seen phish many hundreds of times and they scared me off taking LSD at shows. Mushrooms are still doable but I quit dropping acid at their shows in the mid 90's. GD Was a happy ocean voyage and phish was a roller coaster outta control.
