Tons of weed, a lot of acid and some ecstasy and mushrooms had a lot to do with my life and especially my music from early to mid 90's. Have quit all chemicals several years ago but still enjoy the herb very much. I don't drink very often though. I also went through tons of pain pills after the stabbing thing and became dependant on Stadol (a very very strong synthetic opiate) and went to rehab for that one. Clean & sober in a nice herbal haze!

Subject: OT: [Orb] Thrash's crack buddy! Rather than ask how many on the list are drug users, I'm curious as to how many are not... I'll be open and honest in saying that drugs have quite a bit to do with the origin of my musical tastes (especially with the orb. The fist time I heard them I was listening to some ABTU after eating some really nice Blue Unicorn LSD.) I pushed it a bit too far in my younger days and spent 5 years as a heroin addict, but other than that me and my friend, 'drugs' have gotten along fairly well...
