:congrats:  Wow, really excellent DS.  Thank you very much!  First off, yeah we talked on the phone once circa 06 or 07?  I wasn't going to say anything before you did, but you were definitely fighting heroin addiction at the time.  You didn't sound good.  I tried to encourage you to stay away from everyone you know who was doing opiates because I thought that would give you the best chance of staying clean. 

May I ask some follow up questions though?  Your answers just left me with more questions.  Now some of these are touchy questions, I know.  But I'm fascinated.  I know you can't go into much detail about some of these, but say whatever you can or want to about it. 


Q:  Have you ever seen and/or taken crystal LSD? 

A: 



Q:  So you've seen maybe 200,000 does of LSD at one time?  That's intense.  How would you describe the current world LSD network? 

A: 



Q:  What would you say is the most inspiring/heart warming/beautiful thing you ever saw at a festival? 

A: 



Q:  What is the worst thing you saw happen at a festival or in the drug game in general?

A: 



Q:  What is the craziest thing you ever saw happen at a festival?

A: 



Q:  When you say you saw houses of pounds of marijuana, are you saying that pound after pound were stacked up all over the house like bricks?  Or that there were many pounds worth of plants growing?

A: 



Q:  What are your spiritual beliefs? 

A: 



And hey, Nick Sand, great answer.  Come to think of it, I would also like to meet him more than anyone else living.  Nick Sand is god.  It would be quite an honor to meet him or at least get his autograph or something.

Hey, was Chinacat72 the first to be interviewed?




I forgot to answer you.  Yeah, if the thread called The Interviews: A Compilation of Enter's Notes includes all of his interviews, then it looks like Chinacat was the first, followed by Ythan.

  Wow, really excellent DS.  Thank you very much!  First off, yeah we talked on the phone once circa 06 or 07?  I wasn't going to say anything before you did, but you were definitely fighting heroin addiction at the time.  You didn't sound good.  I tried to encourage you to stay away from everyone you know who was doing opiates because I thought that would give you the best chance of staying clean. 

Yeah I first read that question, and was like fuck.....I don't remember that. It bothered me for a bit, and I was thinking about it. Then I seemed to hit a hazy memory of your voice. 06 sounds right. I cleaned up quite a bit towards the end of that year, but most of it was very bad for me. Now that we're talking about it I remember that convo more. That's what I love about this community; the care that we show one another.


Q:  Have you ever seen and/or taken crystal LSD? 

A: I saw a very small amount many years ago, but I never had the opportunity to eat it. The heroin sidetracked me from my ambitions as far as LSD went, and by the time I finally got clean I was no longer at that point in my life. I'm on a different path these days. I still fully support the work though.

Q:  So you've seen maybe 200,000 does of LSD at one time?  That's intense.  How would you describe the current world LSD network? 

A: Yeah it was a humbling experience peering in those bags. I'm not sure how I would describe the current world LSD network. I've lost contact with everyone I used to work with/for a long time ago. The people I do talk with stopped working around the same time I did as well, so...... Things change a lot. The past couple years were really discouraging for me to watch, what with the nBOMEs, high prices & weak doses. This summer was much more to my liking. Everything we tested came up positive for indoles, and the doses were laid good & strong like they are supposed to be. The prices are still higher than I'd like to see, but the quality is back where it should be, and I'm happy about that. It seems that those in charge now are aware of the issues, and working to fix them. That's much appreciated.

My only real complaint is that I saw many people slinging strips, and refusing to do sheets til the end of weekend runs/festivals. This is a problem, cause people pick up sheets & tenpacks at these events & bring 'em home.....which in turn means it spreads.

I had the privilege of sampling some euro doses this summer, and I was very impressed. The Europeans are definitely doing it right. Good clean L, and very potent doses. L the way it's supposed to be. :smile:

Q:  What would you say is the most inspiring/heart warming/beautiful thing you ever saw at a festival? 

A: Random acts of kindness in general. I see them all the time at festivals. I'd say that most awe-inspiring/beautiful one was something that I witnessed from afar this summer. A PA Phish fan was murdered by a drunken "friend" outside of a bar this spring. His heartbroken father joined an online Phish community to vent his heartbreak & look for solace. He'd never seen Phish, but he knew how much they meant to his son, so he reached out to us. His son had tickets to a bunch of west coast shows this tour, and his father didn't know what to do with them. We convinced him that he should go to at least one, so he could experience what it is that his son loved so much. He decided on one of the SF shows, then later informed us that he couldn't make it, due to the cost of airfare. Another member of this community went ahead & bought round trip tickets for this man & his friends, so that they could make it to the show! They wound up having an incredible time out there.

Q:  What is the worst thing you saw happen at a festival or in the drug game in general?

A: At festivals, people overdosing with those around just milling about ignoring the situation. That's some dark shit. We're a community, and part of being a community is looking out for each other. It's never cool when someone falls out around ya, and sure it harshes the mellow.....but when someone is having a medical emergency, that takes precedence over what ever else is going on. Yet many people don't seem to get that. Also bunkers, scam artists, hard drugs in general.....I've come across some seriously bad vibes. None of that disgusts me as much as people ignoring someone dying in front of them though.

Police too......they can bring some serious darkness to a show. It's a sickening feeling watching people get rolled, and sketchy as shit running & dodging as they're searching for you. Drug game in general.....the ghetto. The shit I've seen while I was a junkie hanging out in the ghettos of various cities was just straight up depraved. I've seen bangers pop off shots at each other, and that shit is sketchy as fuck. I never saw anyone get hit by the bullets though. Bangers are terrible shots.

Q:  What is the craziest thing you ever saw happen at a festival?

A: Hmmmmm......that's a tough one. I've seen a lot of crazy shit, most of which I can't even really remember. Lots of naked people running around, stage jumping & shit. Naked dudes hula-hooping in broad daylight. Saw a dude run headfirst into a tree at SPAC this summer, puke, then go on his way. I also saw a spooked out smack dealer jump in his car & run over tents trying to get away from security at a festival. Fortunately no one was seriously hurt. I've also seen some weird metaphysical shit go down, but that's indescribable, and involved lots of psychedelics.

Q:  When you say you saw houses of pounds of marijuana, are you saying that pound after pound were stacked up all over the house like bricks?  Or that there were many pounds worth of plants growing?

A: Both.

Q:  What are your spiritual beliefs? 

This one is really tough. I'm at a point in my life where I'm trying to recapture some of my spirituality. I haven't focused enough on this in the past couple of years, and it shows. I don't follow any specific religion, and never really did. I believe that the universe, and all possible universes are connected by a network of intelligent conscious energy....an energy which we are a part of. I believe that at the root, we are all one. I also believe in the concept of yin & yang; good energy & bad energy, love & hate. I'm on the side of Love. :smile: It can be hard, and I fall short....especially these days, but spiritually speaking my goal to remain as ensconced in Love as possible, and do my best to help people. That's what I did with LSD, and why I've chosen to pursue a career in the medical field.

Other than that, I'm not sure. I have a lot of soul searching & work to do before I can really call myself a spiritual individual again.

And hey, Nick Sand, great answer.  Come to think of it, I would also like to meet him more than anyone else living.  Nick Sand is god.  It would be quite an honor to meet him or at least get his autograph or something. 

Yeah man, Nick is a true American hero, and many years down the line I believe/hope that his story will be taught in the same way as George Washington, Ben Franklin, etc. :laugh:

Yeah, I mean I could go for longer, but I'm choosing not to. I may go back down the line, but right now I'm burned out on the whole school thing & just want to get to work in my field. Good luck with your studies brother, and keep in contact. When I asked for that ban from the Growery they wound up giving me a perma instead of a a 3 monther. :smilingpuppy: With chat being a thing of the past I don't really care enough to get it reversed though. So hit me up on here from time to time. :smile:

Really excellent, DS.  Thanks again.  And this time I copied your answers, along with the questions and pasted it in the OP for easy access.  And yes, I definitely think that if the world ever comes to its senses, then Nick Sand will definitely be considered an American hero.  I like to think you will too.  :wink:

I am so tired of school as well... but I still have a long hard road to go, not to mention if I get into medical school. I know you will make a valuable contribution to the field.
Will def keep in touch, and I'll mention that to the moderators over there, I know I'm not alone in missing seeing you around.

Cool stuff, I enjoyed the read. I would love to be interviewed but I guess you need to be an OG member for that :shrug:

Something there is mysteriously formed,
Existing before Heaven and Earth,
Silent, still, standing alone, unchanging,
All-pervading, unfailing,

Great (ta). Being great, it flows out;
Flowing out means far-reaching;
Being far-reaching, it is said to return.


It's just a shot away..

Yeah, really. 

Q:  Dark Star, describe the LSD crystal you saw.  Did you hold it?  For how long?  What did it look like?  Did you shake it in the jar to watch it spark?

Q:  Dark Star, describe the LSD crystal you saw.  Did you hold it?  For how long?  What did it look like?  Did you shake it in the jar to watch it spark? 

A: It was white fluff crystal. I only got to see it briefly as it was being transferred from a tiny brown glass vial into another bigger brown glass vial with a dropper. It was being used to make a headstash vial. I didn't get to inspect it or anything. It was white, and looked kinda like someone was dumping a small amount of snow from one vial to another. I didn't get a close look at the crystals though. It was a really powerful feeling being in the same room as it. It had energy to it.  A lot of people think that's bullshit, but it's true. Maybe it's just knowing what it is, but there was a palpable energy in the air.

Q:  What is a headstash vial?  Just a really potent vial or something?  I'll bet it does have an energy to it.  It may be mostly because you know what it is and what it has the power to do, but still.
