Hello everybody! I recently was invited and am now going to go to an event at the end of this week. It's a general admission dance type of event with experimental world fusion/electronic.

I just so happen to have some good family 'cid in the freezer, purportedly at 100 mics per square. However much it is, when I asked, he said three is enough for union with the universe, after he stuck out his tongue with three squares seated on top. I am thinking of taking 2 or 3.

Normally I would take around 2-3 grams of mushrooms at an event like this. I would like to experience the fullest visual potential of acid. I honestly want my mind blown. Dancing would be interesting too. I think of myself as a reasonably seasoned tripper. And I <3 lucy.

What is the general consensus revolving around dosage, intensity, and enjoyability of lucy at events?

Any recommendations for anything?
 
I think most people would say that 2-3 tabs of good acid can be quite a bit more powerful than 2-3g of cubensis mushrooms. If you've had experience with this batch at this proposed dosage, and you are comfortable in such a public environment, then by all means have fun. But IMO that level of LSD would be better suited to eyes-closed seated psychedelic journeying. I couldn't imagine "union with the universe" while I'm trying not to bump into people and spill their drinks.

I'd only dose if I had a good backup plan to get me home from the club in case anything goes screwy. But I'd probably choose a 2C-X instead of LSD for that setting.
 
I initially had a pitch-black room psychedelic journey in mind. And I by no means intend to have "union with the universe" in the middle of the dance floor, I simply used that as a feel for the potency. I don't have immediate access or the funds to get any 2C-X, MDxx, or otherwise. My friends will be on mushrooms. I assume many people there will be tripping. I'm looking at this as an opportunity to enjoy the music on a deep level, connect with everybody in the room, and explore expression through dance.

Actually I have some 2C-E, but it is of unknown quality and dosage. I've also had it for a long time. Yay or nay? Or perhaps take that with one blotter. I just don't want to be disappointed. A small amount of mushrooms might be available, but I want more than that, and I want something different.

I would advise against the 2C-E in this case b/c of the unknown quality. I think it would be smarter to go and check the scene out before dropping the Lucy. If the set and setting are good, then by all means go for it. But I think taking the blotters one at a time would be wise so you can get a feel for the potency

Thanks for the advice, and welcome to Bluelight :)

The set and setting should be great. I've been to the venue before while sober, and this time it will be with psychedelic music and dancing! I have paranoia revolving around the degradation of LSD in my pocket, so I would want to take it all at once.

Can anyone describe what LSD is like at an event like the one described?

I think I'm probably going to go for 2-2.5 or maybe even three.
 
No problem, and thank you too! Sounds like a great setting, should be fun. Never personally been to an event like that though so I can't be of any help there. Maybe take 2 at once and put the other in a small backpack to avoid heat and light exposure. That way if you feel the need for an extra kick you'll have it. Sorry if I'm being a little over cautionary, its just that IME one can never be too careful with psychedelics
 
Oh my god dude! Did not even finish reading, DO NOT eat three family tabs at a festival unless you are experienced with acid. Acid can get fucking crazy really quick in an unknown and unpredictable environment.
Eat one and if you're feeling balsy 1.5, 2.
Or if you want an idea of what I'm talking about eat 1, then eat a second, or a half 90 - 120 minutes later and observe how much just that extra dose kicks your trip up a notch.

If you eat all three of those babies I doubt you'll be able to see much for a good portion of the day and may very well become a pretty big spectacle somewhat unaware of your surroundings.
I wouldn't definitely wouldn't push it further than two, and I would start with one, but that's just me.

I watched a close friend do 300ug's just this weekend in fact, he was goooone, and is very experienced with LSD.
Then there was the guy yelling about how he can't make sense of the world and going from one thought to the next, regardless of context, all at the top of his lungs of course, all the while a midst blood curdling screams.

Basically what I'm getting at is you probably don't want to be that guy in a public venue.

I consider myself a very experienced psychedelic user and find the 250-350mcg dose range ideal for large concerts/raves. Although I do usually prefer to take LSD and most other tryptamines at non-electronic shows due to my musical tastes, I have taken around that dose at several EDM events and had a blast. Sure there are moments when I come out of the music/dancing induced trance I tend to get into and take a look around at the large crowd I'm in. Which usually results in a short wave of anxiety that I've learned to quickly combat using the most rational thinking I am able to at the time.

As far as the enjoyability goes I'd say hands down LSD is a better show/social drug than mushrooms simply because I can usually control my thoughts much better than on mushrooms. However, dancing on mushrooms is something unique and very special. I don't know why but dancing comes so naturally on mushrooms, where as with LSD I usually take awhile to "get into the zone" as I say. When I'm in the "zone" there is not a single thought running through my head, just blissful music that seems to force my body to move in ways I normally never do. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about there.

In the end I'd say it's worth a shot if you can handle 3.5g of good mushrooms then 200-300mcg of LSD shouldn't be anything you can't handle, even if things do get a bit too weird for a bit. But really it all comes down to set and setting and how comfortable you are in that headspace......

You're right, 300ug may be a bit too much! I've eaten this family's stuff before, but it was a year or so ago and I don't know if this batch is any different. Holy shit that trip was insane, but not the hardest I've tripped. Thanks for making me remember. I can get ballsy with psychedelics though... I've had great experiences as a result!

Acid is the one psychedelic I've done the most experimentation with, with shrooms being second. I've unintentionally taken very large doses and had a blast.

I think two hits sounds ideal for me.

Good LSD really jibes with my mind a lot better than mushies, but I love the fungi as well. There's just something about lucy...

Thanks for the advice everyone!
 
Good thinking, I think TangerinO gave you sound advice there.

For a music festival, if I wanted to just enhance the experience, I'd take 70 - 110mics. If I wanted it to take me somewhere incredible, I'd take 110 - 150. If I wanted to really push the envelope, take a risk and let the music and the scene take me on a journey... I'd consider a LITTLE bit more. Acid makes everything a lot more intense, loud music and crowds, well...

The intensity of a trip doesn't just depend on the dose. You can have 200mics in one environment and have a smooth ride and an easy time. You can have 120 in another and have a far more intense experience. This is gonna be an intense environment. Tread lightly... You're saying two sounds right, I would just take one and a half, gauge how you're going after an hour, and then see about that last half.
 
I frequently take acid at techno/house/synth/etc events and personally I tend to stay around the 100-150mic range. I can take a lot more in private settings, but at public events I don't want to feel vulnerable or like I'm out of control.

That of course is a personal limit, but it's worth considering how safe you will be and what you could do if you ran into trouble. I think both LSD and mushrooms can be very confusing at high doses, but there is something about LSD when reality crumbles into infinite possibilities and you just get frozen and unable to make a decision -- especially at important moments like buying a drink, hailing a cab, or remembering where you are going.

Plus, an amazing party with music you love performed well over a great sound system surrounded by other tripping people who love the music as much as you do is one of the strongest potentiators I have ever experienced. Combine that with any psychedelic and it will feel stronger than it does at home by yourself.

I love LSD in social settings because you tap into that all-one energy and can be consumed by genuine love for everyone around you. It's an incredibly sincere feeling. For me, phenethylamines don't have the same depth and warmth (although they are lots of fun).
 
As other posters have already mentioned, this is a matter of your experience level and how comfortable you are with being incapacitated in public. I've gone through ego death at clubs before, but I have a certain level of fatalism and don't mind being too fucked up to properly interact with people, count money, etc. As long as I can still walk, and someone else that I know is around, I'm A-OK. If you aren't this frivolous or can make up for being more anxious by having A LOT of experience, I would only take two. 300 mics of good L can be quite confusing at times and will hit you with ocassional blasts of very intense emotions/sensory stimulation.
 
I consider myself pretty experienced with acid. I've just never taken it at an event. I just am not familiar with referring to dosage ranges, as the times I've tripped out of this world have just been with liquid squirted on bread or half a blotter of premium grade product, and various other family blotters. Is there a typical minimum dosage where the best of the visuals come out?

I don't mind being incapacitated as long as I can regroup with friends after the event. That means coherent enough to use my phone. I learned my lesson after two blotters hit me as I was trying to order pizza.. there i was..!

Take a lower dose. Maybe try out a single or half dose sometime before you go to the event, just to see how strong or weak the doses are? BTW, dealers usually don't know the ug of doses.

I've taken LSD while in public but I took a lower/moderate dose that wasn't going to give me ego death or a spiritual experience. I wasn't at a dance club though.

I have no idea at all about the ug of any of the LSD I've taken except that when I took it in low/moderate doses I didn't get ego death or a spiritual experience which is what I had the first time I took it as a teenager when I took a single geltab.

Have fun. :)
 
There reside 3.5 blotters for me in the communal stash. I will test half a hit starting in the early morning tomorrow. That will leave me with three left— two full ones, and two halfs. That way, I can start out with 1.5, and boost it by .5 or 1 more depending on how I feel an hour after ingestion.

This will definitely be fun :)

Edit: Nevermind, if I test it out it will either be in the late morning or early morning on Thursday (show is on Friday). I have two classes that day, and I don't want to be trying to recall information on half a tab. I wouldn't worry about the second class, but it's the first one I would say no to.

Edit 2: Just tried to cut one in half and accidentally made a quarter. I just ate that!

At a quarter of a hit, it is most definitely active. And superb. Since I feel comfortable enough losing myself at a venue, I'm going to eat 2, and boost with .5 if I want to trip harder. Thanks for all the input everyone!

I personally find that 150ugs is when the visuals really start getting seriously crazy and 180 - 200ugs is when all depth perception goes out the window and I am just floating amidst an ocean of hallucinations. It's totally different for everyone though.
 
180-200 mics would be hella cool at an event, especially if you can find a chair away from the noise for a while and just sit, chill and zone out when stuff gets intense.
