As many people do, you confuse drugs with altered consiousness/perception. Drugs are only a means towards an end, that being an alteration of your "normal" waking consousness. While this alteration may "enhance" your experience of music, I think it very narrow minded to claim certain music can only be enjoyed where drugs are involved. BTW, I do smoke more than just Marlies myself, so I am not anyti-drug or anything, just trying to help us all understand. JG John C.S.

One of the best states of altered consciousness I ever experienced was while chopping vegetables, listening to the Maurizio track on "Excursions in Ambience II". I thought the track was kinda chee-z til I started trippin', and no, I wasn't smokin' or dosin'. Why would I want the hassle of doing drugs, w/ the baggage of deleterious physical effects that go along w/ them, as well as the monetary cost, when I can trip on music w/o them? Drugs can only take you so far, and can only take you so many places. Do yourself a favor & learn to alter your concsiousness w/o them. Chill Che
