positive influences

Drugs (marijuana/shrooms) in collaboration with Pink Floyd have proven to be a positive contribution to my life. I'm really curious if others share this phenomenon.
I started smoking marijuana my 18th summer. The way I was introduced to the drug greatly altered my perception of reality and my interests in general. I immediately grew impatient with anything mainstream. It didn't really feel like I was rebelling or escaping life at all though. It felt more like I was unlocking these desires for anything inspiring. Enter Pink Floyd. This original sound really grabbed a hold of me. It felt so secret. Partly because none of my peers even had a clue. Not that I really cared. Also because it's truly therapy while in these drug induced moments. This whole section of my brain has been uncovered and craving inspiration (which is often fed by Pink Floyd.) I'm twenty now, and in the prime of my PF listening, which will most definitely continue for quite sometime. As I look back, all the memories/experiences/moments of clarity/feelings of being connected have enriched my life more than I ever thought.
-I applaud everyone on this site for sharing their prospective regarding Pink Floyd or anything for that matter. Because as most have discovered Communication is everything.

I don't mess with drugs, but pink floyd did open up the part of my mind that craves true art. I have gone on a search for originality ever since i started listening to them. That's why i've gotten in to progressive rock, it's all about originality. I want to start a progressive rock band but none of my friends dig it like i do.

I smoked pot while listening to Pink Floyd, and it did feck all - other than bore me.

So I guess it doesn't work for everybody.

Stole the reply right from my mouth, I tell ya.
