two red star-related updates: 1) some of u guys know how i apparently like to eat fruit when tripping. i still vividly remember that orange from my first trip on these dots - amazingly delicious and difficult anyways, we tried a pear this time. it was sort of on the comedown. before i bit into mine, i was spinning it around by its stem, admiring its beauty, when i suddenly saw it as the "LOL WUT" pear. my bro isn't as much of an internet dork as us, so i didn't know if he knew what that was. so i started explaining it..and he knew. anyways, we had an intense fit of laughter thanks to that - thought u guys would appreciate that. 2) these dots must be strong! apparently they scared my buddy away from taking acid again. i think it has to do with the strength of these particular hits, coupled with the way he chooses to use LSD. he likes to take it, and then go to the bar or go partying. it was a festival in my city this weekend (not hippie music fest like we all think of - more like food, vendors, art, etc) so he took it, went to the bar in the afternoon, started coming up hard, and was surprised that he didn't wanna be around people. so he wisely retreated back to his apt. i actually stopped by then, ~3 hours into his trip, and he was out there, but not bad. i guess later he went back to the bar, ended up doin some coke, and then felt like ass the next day. he seems to be blaming the acid, but c'mon dude, cocaine and massive amounts of alcohol is plenty enough to do that. i guess it's sorta for the best, cuz in my opinion he's not using it responsibly. i know there's no right way to do it, but i think most of us would agree it's not THAT way that's how he's always done it though. he did one star the same night i first tried 'em with my brother, but not with us. he went out and was able to keep it hidden pretty well. he's taken some other stuff that i thought was weak, one hit, and LOVED it. when he gets a higher dose, it's too much for that horseplay, and he doesn't handle it well. too bad i don't have any weak doses for him

Sounds like the guy needs a mg to set him strait in life (really I don't know, I should take a mg before I prescribe it, but he needs SOME sort of earth shattering psychedelic experience, that he can't just suppress and go party through) I love how everyone, of every age and walk of life, has had these things and I don't even get WoW:daisy:
i brought 5 about 6 months i had only 1 and it smashed me it was so so so clean my brother has never seen me trip so clean not so much viualy but body smashing put me on my arse 4 3 hours ithen went t a city rave and went hard didnt sop it took ages to dissolve 30 min im not sure that its lsd they say they r mirco dots but i think not from what people tell me about the mirco dot back in the day
(this is the same trip as linked to from the OP, i just didn't want to lose it) i'm back from the festival it was A LOT of fun. i ended up taking 2 microdots on friday night, instead of saturday afternoon/evening as planned. partly because i was too excited to wait, and partly because i thought the music line up was much better on friday. i fell in love with this local band called Rebel Fire. i dropped around 7:00, so during their 9-10 slot i was peaking i think this trip gave me a better idea of the difference between one of these hits and two. i think i like 2 better, and that i'll give my brother 2 when we go camping (i might take 3 then). i was getting quite strong visuals this time. i looked like there was a black net in front of me when it started getting dark. i couldn't trust my eyes when walking down to the music. we got there and this band Rebel Fire was playing. i knew i wanted to check 'em out from watching on youtube before, but i didn't know i was gonna like 'em so much. the lights were not that intense...but they were for me. the light sorta continued in a fractal, past where it would normally end. i recall purples and reds sort of growing out of the singer's head on the more intense notes. the light was eventually reaching the ceiling of the tent, forming sharp, distinct shapes. when the singer would move her arms around she was leaving the longest trails. me and my lady were dancing around, enjoying the music. her rasta lyrics were getting kinda scary/dark/evil. i was really liking it:devil: and exclaimed so to my woman. the dark vibe eventually got a little much and we decided to leave the music. but before we did...i had a moment.... i got pretty emotional and was brought to what i call "acid tears." this music was so beautiful, it was moving to me that this band was really spreading the message of peace and love and actually doing something to make the world a little bit better. it was touching that this music actually came from where i grew up...these were my roots. these people (however weird and dirty they might be) were my people. and most of all i was thinking about how much i love my fiance. how grateful i am to have her, and how sorry i am for not always treating her 100% right. my eyes began to well up, i thought she could see, so i said "babe, i'm really getting some acid tears right now" and burst into a full on cry, with tears flooding my face. it was not sad though. it was the most ultimate happiness. i remember thinking that this moment was worth ANYTHING. tickets to the fest were $50 a piece...prob $20 in gas and 50 or 60 for supplies. the two precious hits of LSD had cost me exactly $13.75...but this feeling and this moment were absolutely priceless. on the way back to the campsite i saw the most beautiful sky ever, and this was "real" since she could see the purples and oranges too - although it was probably slightly enhanced for me. gorgeous view. back at the campsite things got a little rough. my fiance and i started having a serious talk about our relationship, and it wasn't all positive, so i got a little low after than. it was really a bonding experience in a way, so i'm glad it happened. after that, i had a lot of difficulty with starting and maintaining a fire, starting the charcoal grill and cooking a little. she took over the cooking, and i ate most of a hamburger. that's the only downside of tripping at festivals or camping for me - i lose a lot of normal function so i can't do simple shit that kinda needs to get done i still feel like this stuff lasts such a short amount of time for LSD, but even if it is possibly an analogue, it's awesome, so i guess i'm good with it. i could NOT sleep that night, but i laid down with my fiance pretty "early." i just laid there listening to the music and having some very complex closed eye visuals which i wish i could describe. VERY colorful patterns that swirled into each other getting smaller and smaller. also there were these pointy knob-like things that twisted and turned all in unison. i was being AMAZED by these CEVS and later on having some pretty amusing thoughts to where i was actually chuckling to myself. i think i got maybe an hour or two of sleep that night. even without tripping it would have been hard since they were shooting off fireworks the whole night, and the music stopped when the birds started chirping in the early morning hours. the next day i had the slightest of headaches, most of which could probably be attributed to lack of rest and extreme heat. ended up getting a little drunk the next night, and of course smoking weed throughout both days of the fest. i had to find some there actually, and got a pretty good deal. mushrooms were being sold like crazy, but i didn't want any. i was also offered molly, hash, hash oil and various ganja treats. i took a few extra microdots in case anyone was looking....but the few people that i actually talked to about it thought that 12 or 15 bucks per hit was too much. i admit that it's kinda steep, but these hits are fucking good. and i'm not really trying to part with too many of them. so i ended up keeping them all, which is probably better. my neighbor at the fest and his wife each dropped a hit of blotter that he bought at the fest. he offered one to me for free, but i declined since i had just tripped the night before and i wasn't feeling up to trip again. if i WAS i had also come prepared with a dose of 2cb, two different doses of 2ce, and three doses of DMT if i was really feeling adventurous. but i never tapped into any of that. but he said he paid 15 a piece for those blotters and i looked at them and they were definitely cut too small. and neither of them seemed to be tripping very hard when i saw them later. so i think that those people who thought i was trying to rip them off missed a good deal. next trip in two weekends with my bro. i'm gonna ask him what he thinks about trying mescaline, but if not, were are gonna be munching on microdots. i think he'll take 2 and i'll take 2 or maybe 3 this time. i don't see myself going much higher than 3 though. 2 is a full on trip, up there with my my strongest ones...but i remembering thinking that i've never been "so high...so EASY" before. tripping on LSD is just so flowing and effortless, and i always think about that on my higher doses. so 2 is great and i really don't need any more, but i'm curious about a true high dose experience. and know i recall my statement about losing a lot of normal function, so i guess it's not all easy and effortless. these things hit super quick too. i swear i was feeling it ~20 minutes after i put them in my mouth. and the comeup is the tinest bit more rough than my other lower doses of L, but nothing compared to the roughness of 2ce comeup for example. but still, i get a tiny bit queasy and quite a bit of nervousness.
just re-posting this here so i can keep better track of it. was in danger of losing it in an old Bump thread. just getting back from camping with my little brother and my wife. my bro an i each dosed 2 stars yesterday at 4:30 and had a pretty amazing trip. we stayed up til almost 6 AM talking and laughing around the campfire. i got to know a few things about him that i never knew, and at one point i told him he was gonna "re-teach me how to trip" or something like that. we were talking about visuals, and how i don't get them that hard anymore, and he was showing me some "tricks." maybe i'll post more details when i have more brain power. i'm feeling pretty great (no after effects from the L), but also pretty sleep deprived. slept 4 or 5 hours after dirty heads, and then went to work all day. and only slept for maybe an hour or two total on friday night when it rained for about 6 hours and my tent flooded mildly. i've got some pics too, but no space left to upload them on HF. every time wanna add new pics i have to delete old ones. here's my favorite one: __________________
An experience with 1 Red Star Microdot and flipping on an MDMA/6apb cap for Bicycle Day Event... The Bicycle Day Celebration was a spectacular event! I met up with Voyage, we explored the different areas of the event and got comfortable with the surroundings. I dosed a red star Microdot to start off with, the comeup was very gentle and felt drawn out, some of which had to do with the setting I think, the dose felt very clean although I got slight hints of nausea here and there. Voyage and I discussed some topics which we talked about on the forums and interacted with some other people as well, I met a couple from Israel, which made me realize the scope of this event and the Psychedelic Science Conference that was being held throughout the week. As the effects continued to pick up throughout the intial hour, I decided to wander off and check out some of the music. Alot of the music throughout the night on two of the stages was very hip hop beat based with electronic synths and effects. Not my ideal dance music but I kind of vibed with it. I dosed a 150 mgs 6apb/MDMA cap about an 1 1/2 hours in to the LSD trip. After about a half hour I started feeling the roll and noticed they opened up the main stage. I was greeted with a very beautiful projector displaying fractal images and Bluetech was spinning. Bluetech has a very airy sound to him, the music felt like it was coming from more than the speakers, the walls and air felt wide open and the music felt very liquidy and spacious. The dj was elevated in the center in front of the fractal screen and there was a performance act to the left and artists to the right. I only caught a few Bluetech tracks which I wish I was able to see the full set. Shpongle came on next and was absolutely amazing! Alex Grey was doing a live painting while Simon was spinning, pretty amazing moments. The candyflip was really starting to pick up at this point, The roll was pushing the effects of the LSD into overdrive and it felt like my dose nearly doubled for a good hour or so there. The fractals were rapidly changing colors at a breakneck pace which would pull me into the screen at some points and then throw me out the vortex. Alex Grey's paintings jumped off the canvas, I felt energies come from the paintings to the beat of the music. I tried to rendez vu with Voyage about halfway through the set but we didn't meet up til later. I started exploring dancing on the latter half of Shpongle's set. The room was pretty crowded so there was limited dancing capacity, although I did land myself right next to one of the speakers and the bass rattled my being, sending shivers throughout my being. Shpongle mixed in a few new tracks all of which sound pretty stellar among many of my favorites. Later on, I met up with Voyage and we went to the chill out room. A very peaceful, serene enviornment, quite a contrast to the other stages. I explored some meditation, I experienced really amazing CEV's, I felt weightless except for my eyes fluttering, which represented itself as surges of electricity among the oceanic space that I was exploring. After that session, I laid down and had an inner calm going on that was pretty amazing. After that we went back up stairs to more of the dance music, there was more space on this stage and I explored some dancing, at one point as I was maintaing a fairly consistent dance, there were 2 people that came up to the side of me and started exploring each other throughout the dance, I maintained my steady dancing while they explored each others movements in very interesting ways, felt it interesting that I was very much in my trance but their vibes sort of emanated into it. I went back to the main stage after awhile and there was this amazing female DJ spinning, Alex Grey was still painting as well. This DJ was spinning a very downtemo set which spoke to me very well at the point I was at in the trip. It was very psychedelic music but some of it retained a house vibe which I found a really interesting sound. I was able to get front and center for the set and Alex Grey came down off the stage. Voyage met up with me after awhile and I could tell he was really enjoying the set as well. Alex Grey came down from the stage and signed some autographs, took pics and talked with some folks, I attempted to talk to him but he was kinda dismissive which was unfortunate, He was talking to some other people as well though. Shortly after that we left and today I'm still slightly feeling some affects. I feel overall refreshed and content and that event was definitely a memorable one.
Great thread, Great read, These red stars sound awesome, i feel miles away from getting hold of any of these nowadays, been over 10yrs since ive seen any form of L over here in England.
