MiserereNobis Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Jerry Garcia. Even though it was 25 years ago, I miss him quite frequently. I wish I could have seen more shows with him, and I miss the shows and music he didn't make. More recently, John Prine (sadly, due to covid) 1 Link to comment

Use the converted sound of a pulsar as a beat. Also you play the instruments while riding a space dragon. Gotta have space dragons. 1 Link to comment

Gotta have space dragons. Sounds like you needed to go to a Grateful Dead show on acid. In the middle of the 2nd set of every show (well, '78 or so on), they would play a completely improvised "song" called Space. I'm pretty sure I've ridden some space dragons. 1 Link to comment

I am looking forward to when I can live these kinds of experiences with my mind fully functioning. That will be a beautiful form of power. 1 Link to comment
