Listening to SY while high is a religious experience.
 
i fuckin shit my pants when i heard silver rocket while i was blazed the other day. last year in college me and some people got really baked, turned off all the lights in the basement and just let nurse wash over us. it was awesome. any similar experiences?

HaydenAsche 03.26.2006 09:21 PM

I don't think I ever listened to SY while baked and I was baked like 95% of the time from when I was 13 to 15. I remember hearing DDN while I was on Shrooms though. Not that trippy as I was paying more attention to the wall.

schizophrenicroom 03.26.2006 09:22 PM

i've never done any kind of drug.

HaydenAsche 03.26.2006 09:22 PM

You're lucky. Drugs are fucking lame. I wish I'd never have done them.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 03.26.2006 09:30 PM

drugs are gay

hey alex 03.26.2006 10:41 PM

i did shrooms yesterday and playe dmurray street on the come up.. I was awesome, the sun started acutally coming out during rain on itn. I was happy, even though it was mostly kinda just alright.

Lethrneck4 03.26.2006 10:46 PM

AMEN.....SY while stoned are incredible....especially the first few times you listen baked

ice bat 03.26.2006 10:51 PM

"New Hampshire" + bong hit + nice weather + cup of tea + cig = PERFECTION, ECSTASY, JOY

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 03.26.2006 10:52 PM

Try listening to Masona after using an 8ball (eightball, heroin crack mix)

HaydenAsche 03.26.2006 10:53 PM

WTF? An eightball of coke you mean?

ice bat 03.26.2006 11:01 PM

Ew. No thanks.

marleypumpkin 03.26.2006 11:07 PM

I listen to SY about 40% of the time, while blazing. The other 60% is when i'm getting inspiration to go record somethiing.

whorefrost 03.27.2006 04:44 AM

i get baked very very rarely so when I do it has a pretty strong effect as i have a low tolerance...
to this end, i have had two religious experiences... the first was the first time i got majorly stoned, like i had no idea weed could have such a strong effect... i was in a total dream world, could barely communicate with anyone, had no idea what was going on... eveyrthing was in slow motion loaded with strange significance... so i retreated to my room and whapped my headphones out and listened to Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star. Holy shit. It sounded so different and exotic and perfect and I was so euphoric and the music was like machinery of bliss.
Actually that was the only time i think... another time i listened to washing machine on headphones and had a similar experience but not so strong... i might not even have been stoned that time...
and listening to daydream nation for the 1st time sans drugs was still a mind blowing experience....

im not big on drugs. i wont go out of my way to get any kind of drug. but if it's in front of my face, and i cant come up with a good reason not to. why not.

Rob Instigator 03.27.2006 04:19 PM

I used to love LSD

I do not drink

I smoke marihuana

that's my drug.

if you drink coffee or if you drink cokes, you are using DRUGS!!!! you are USING AND ABUSING CAFFEINE!!!!

greenlight 03.28.2006 04:42 PM

i was soo stoned back in the school days (alone on sunday night in, waiting for my roomates to come), i had to go puke, then
so clean and so high while listening to the washing machine
one of the best listening experiencer ever. love WM. till then i knew only goo and dirty, but knew WM is great great album and i need to listen to the other material as well. since then i started listen to the WM like nonstop and my roomates were like....please let's play goo, let's play goo and i was like..c'mon washing machine, hehe.

i quit blazing....happy days.

sonikold 03.28.2006 05:50 PM

BMR used to fuck my shit late at night with big headphones on. sister sent me into bliss. oh, the good old days...

krastian 03.28.2006 06:32 PM

I don't really smoke by myself anymore so I rarely listen to them baked......I usually end up having to listen to metal/hardcore or Dub at a friends place (fine by me).

RockerNino 03.28.2006 06:36 PM

ive blazed while watching "mote" from the dvd. it freaked the SHIT outta me!! someone asked if i was ok. fun times.

baby bulldog 03.28.2006 07:24 PM

The first time I got to hear an advance of NYC Ghosts and Flowers was quite an experience with mushrooms..I nearly had to turn on the lights and cool out during the title track.Quite heavy.

Hannah 03.28.2006 07:38 PM

Listening to sonic youth can be a religious experience even when your not blazed! After all they are Gods!

marleypumpkin 03.30.2006 05:18 AM

Very well put, I was just thinking that thought, somewhat. I was thinking, there has been no group like Sy before, & there won't be one after.

nomadicfollower 06.17.2006 07:22 PM

Fuck that.
Hypermagic Mountain is a religious experince (see:Bizarro Zarro Land).
Joint, that, and some big ass speakers.

krastian 06.17.2006 07:59 PM

^A poet really.

Inhuman 06.17.2006 08:06 PM

I always blaze to SY, but it never really sparks my interest any more. There's too many things that distract me from focusing. I'll have to try it with different substances.

m^a(t)h 06.17.2006 08:24 PM

i have never done drugs.

HaydenAsche 06.17.2006 08:31 PM

Smoking pot is lame for music, though. Unless it is something really fucking crazy already it doesn't make any difference.

kingcoffee 06.17.2006 09:07 PM

Getting high and listening to SY is definitely similar to a religious experience. Although, drugs can make anything seem like a religious experience. I remember just getting highand looking at a sunset and thinking "goddamn! Now THAT'S beautiful!" And although sunset's are beautiful, I wouldn't have felt as strongly if I weren't stoned.

kingcoffee 06.17.2006 09:08 PM

But it's all good. Gettin' high and listening to good tunes is a great waste of time. In fact it's the best.

luxinterior 06.17.2006 09:40 PM

Count me among the few, the proud, the Sonic Youth fans who have never done drugs.

Everyone I know smokes pot. I've never made a habit out of following their lead in anything, so why start there?

Hahaha, ridiculous. I would never be able to handle myself. I think Wonderful Rainbow would be better in that situation though.

val-holla-ing 06.18.2006 12:45 PM

yep. i'm not straightedge or anthing, though. i used to smoke cigarettes and still drink, but i just can't see myself getting down with anything else. i guess the reagan administration got to me with the fried eggs and after school specials.
